Billionaire substitute bride Worried
"Maria, don't get upset. Mia has always been like that."Luna stirred her coffee slowly, a mocking smile hidden beneath her lowered gaze."Mia is the youngest pianist in the country, and she has the Miller Family backing her up. Naturally, she can do whatever she pleases. As for Charles, he just happens to be the unfortunate party in all this."Maria closed her eyes tightly, her heart shaking… How was she supposed to face Charles after all this?After hanging up the phone, she walked back, her mind filled with Charles handsome face.What had Charles done to deserve this?Why did he have to marry a woman like Mia?"Mimi?"Seeing her approach, Charles rose from his seat. Seeing the distressed look on her face, he walked over to her and gently pulled her into his arms, "What's wrong?"Maria bit her lip hard, but couldn't find the words to say.How was she supposed to tell Charles that Mia had been unfaithful?Most men would struggle with such a revelation, not to mention a proud and sel
Billionaire substitute bride Did you cheat on me?
At seven in the evening, Charles noticed that Maria was still lying on the sofa. Shaking his head gently, he picked up the phone to order dinner.Half an hour later, the waiter brought their meals. Charles approached Maria, gently nudged her arm and said, "Ria..."Maria initially ignored him, but a grumble from her stomach betrayed her. Charles chuckled softly, grabbed her arm, and forcibly pulled her up from the sofa."No matter what's on your mind, you can't skip meals."He led her to the dining table and gently sat her down, "I ordered your favorites, let's eat.""Thanks."Maria picked up her fork and placed a piece of her favorite salmon into her mouth. As she chewed her cheeks puffed out like a pufferfish, bringing a delighted smile to Charles face."Regardless of what's making you unhappy, eating is a priority in life. Tell me what you want to eat tomorrow, and I'll have it delivered to the set."Maria looked up at him, blinking, "Aren't you going home?""Why would I go home?"

"Ouch."Maria winced, her hand flying to her forehead, but her watery eyes never left Charles.She had played a part in this mess. If she hadn't agreed to Mia’s plan to take her place in the marriage, Mia would have had no choice but to go through with it herself.Maria was the instigator of this whole affair, and she felt obliged to take responsibility for Charles."You are indeed quite handsome," she admitted. A smile broke out on her tear-streaked face. Once she had come to terms with the situation, her spirit had lifted."Come on, sit down and eat. You didn't eat much earlier."She picked up her fork, grabbed a piece of salmon, and put it on Charles' plate.A low chuckle escaped from Charles . It seemed that his gentle persuasion had paid off, and Maria had come around.His plan had worked.Mia deserved some thanks for this.As Maria ate, she kept adding food to Charles' plate, her amber eyes curling up in delight.After dinner, Maria stretched, wiggled her fingers, and hopped ont
Billionaire substitute bride Business alliance or Love
The next day, Maria was on time at the set, learning martial arts moves from Matthew. She even asked him to teach her some grappling techniques.Just thinking of Alexander made her feel sick. If he continued to mistake her for Mia, he would definitely pester her when they were alone.She could use him as practice then.Soon, the set was bustling again. Maria turned her head and saw Charles surrounded by Director Grant and the team.For some reason, ever since she'd come to terms with her feelings, she couldn't help but smile whenever she saw Charles.It was a kind of uncontrollable joy, a smile that she couldn't suppress.At that moment, Charles looked over at her. Seeing her smile, he smiled back."Oh, my God..."Matthew rubbed his arms dramatically and even shuddered for effect."Mimi, you and Young Master Smith are really inseparable, aren't you? Is he living on the set now? He's here every day."Maria bit her lip and smiled sweetly, "I don't know, maybe.""Of course he is!"Matth
Billionaire substitute bride Reporter
A reporter standing by, speechless, cast a glance at the one who had just asked the question.Such an audacious query! Charles had jetted off to Europe on the day of their wedding and hadn't returned in two years. It was clearly a business alliance, devoid of love.Everyone knew the truth, yet she insisted on voicing it. Was she so desperate for a headline that she would risk her career?The staff members around darted anxious glances at Charles, fearful that the executive, who rarely gave interviews, might lose his temper.Charles lifted his gaze, casting an indifferent glance at the reporter, and then shifted his attention to Maria, who was practicing her martial arts moves."Mimi."His voice wasn't loud, but Maria heard him. Seeing Charles surrounded by reporters, she excused herself from Matthew and approached him."Honey, what's the matter?"He gently reached out, taking Maria’s hand. Seeing the fine sweat on her forehead, he furrowed his brow and asked softly, "Tired?"At his
Billionaire substitute bride Was it just an act?
Mia hid in Luna's room, her neck and chest covered in hickeys. She was afraid to go out, and just as afraid to stay alone in her own room.She was scared and felt wronged when she thought about Alexander, but Luna had no patience for her emotional turmoil. Mia had to deal with it alone.As she was playing a game on her phone, a news alert popped up. She was planning to ignore it, but then she saw her own name.Was it about her and Alexander?She stopped playing the game and clicking the trending news. As she braced herself for what she might see, she was greeted with several photos.The photos showed the backs of two people - unmistakably, Maria and Charles.In one of them, Charles had his arm around Maria’s shoulder, and they were smiling at each other, looking incredibly... happy.In a fit of rage, Mia threw her phone onto thefloor."Why do I have to hide like a rat while that wretched Maria takes my place and trends with Charles?"Thinking about Alexander's sleazy grin, she felt h
Billionaire substitute bride Honey, you’re here
The next morning, Mia woke up early. This time, she didn't go to Luna's room. Instead, she covered her neck with a scarf, donned a mask and a baseball cap, and slipped out the door.On set.As soon as Director Grant saw Maria, he called her over. "Mia, your scenes will mainly take place in the billiard room today. We finally get to witness your incredible performance."Maria gave an embarrassed smile. "Director Grant, I'm so flattered..."Director Grant let out a hearty laugh. "Alright, Mia, no need to be modest. The script calls for it, so give us a good show, alright? Try to make your moves look as smooth as possible, got it?"The glamor of movie magic doesn't quite align with the ordinary routine of a billiard game.The focus is on striking a pose, not on whether the balls pocket or not.Maria, with a smile, acknowledged this and headed for the changing room.While she switched outfits, Director Grant had his crew prepare the set, awaiting her return.When she stepped out dressed i
Billionaire substitute bride So what?
Silently, Charles pulled his suit jacket collar around Maria, enveloping her in its folds.Without a word, he abruptly turned to face Director Grant. "Did you have her dress like this just to play pool?"Caught off guard, Director Grant smiled nervously, "Young Master Smith, it's for the plot...""What plot?"Charles snatched the cue stick from Maria’s hand and tossed it to the floor. The loud clatter startled everyone in the room.Young Master Smith's anger was truly terrifying. With his dark eyes filled with icy rage, he stared at Director Grant, his face frosted with anger. "Director Grant, as a top-tier director, do you depend on exploiting your actresses to build your reputation?"Director Grant was left speechless, his face flushing red then pale.Of course, his fame wasn't built on exploiting actresses; he had genuine talent.But he couldn't explain this to Charles, so he just chuckled awkwardly, "Young Master Smith, Mia is playing a cold-blooded assassin who disguises herself.

After leaving the banquet courtyard, Maria and Charles got into a sightseeing car and headed towards the Lesser family gate.Along the way, Charles remained silent, his thin lips pressed into a straight line, and his face looked terrifyingly solemn.Maria also didn't say anything. She held his hand tightly as if she wanted to give him her strength.Even when they got into their own car, Charles didn't say a word. He just gently rested his head on Maria’s shoulder, like an injured child.**********Back at the villa, Maria fetched a bottle of red wine, opened it, and took out two glasses. She tilted her head at Charles."Let's go and drink in the room."She smiled and raised the wine bottle in her hand. Charles noticed and finally relaxed the corners of his tightly pressed lips.He stood up and laughed softly, "How is one bottle enough? You are never drunk after a thousand cups."Maria looked at him speechlessly, seeing him take out two more bottles of red wine. She felt like things wer

If there was any rift between them, it was Charles.For the past twenty years, she had always been cautious in protecting their relationship, never inquiring about any news about Charles. That's why they had been living in harmony, until Mia came to Beijing.

David and Hamya exchanged glances as they heard this. It was as if they had made a decision. They immediately said in unison, "We want to go too!""Huh?"Charles looked at them with confusion.David patted his stomach and smiled at Charles, "Young Master Smith, I wonder if your company is in need of pianists? What do you think of me?"Hamya chuckled and nodded, "I think I can do it too. Young Master Smith, please consider signing both of us. We don't ask for much, just a chance to perform in top music halls."David was worried that Charles would disagree, so he put on an even more sincere smile. "Ah yeah, haha... We just feel that Patrick is not enough on his own. With Hamya and I joining, after all, we have better qualifications than him. When the three great piano masters embark on anglobal tour together, and with Maria and Linda, it will be twice as successful.""Exactly!"Hamya laughed happily, "Young Master Smith, a single concert takes too long, Patrick won't be able to handle i
Billionaire substitute bride Butterfly Lover
The two of them walked onto the stage and sat down at the piano. Maria raised her head and exchanged a glance with Linda, who placed her hands on the keys.The young pianists were curious about what music Maria and Linda would play. This was the second round of the training camp's open competition, and they usually wouldn't get to hear it.Suddenly, the piano played a melancholic melody, carrying a touch of elegance in the air, instantly striking at people's hearts!"This is..."Some couldn't remain calm instantly. "Butterfly Lovers?!""Is that possible? Butterfly Lovers arranged as a piano piece?""Yes, everyone knows that Butterfly Lovers is best played on the guqin, or the zheng would also work. It's my first time hearing it played on the piano.""Hey, no, this version of Butterfly Lovers has been adapted for piano. It suits the instrument perfectly while still preserving the essence of the original piece. It's absolutely refreshing!"After a few seconds of discussion, an unexpect

Two days later, Maria and Linda arrive at the venue of the exchange conference in their finest attire.They hand over their invitation cards and wait for the security guard to check them.Suddenly, a mocking voice comes from beside them, "Oh oh, who is this? Linda!? Am I mistaken?"The one speaking is Linda manager, and standing next to her is the pianist signed by Linda economic company."Aria, you're not mistaken, isn't that Linda herself?"Hearing their voices, Linda's face darkens. She turns her head and glares at them, "Aria, your eyesight is really not good, you can't even recognize me. You should go to the hospital to have your eyes checked."Aria originally wanted to embarrass Linda, but she didn't expect her to retort so sharply. She immediately gets furious."Linda, the company didn't give you an invitation card. Tell me, where did you steal it from?""Hehe..."Linda raises her chin triumphantly, holding Maria's arm. "Do I need the company to give me one? Just look at who's
Billionaire substitute bride Great!
After arriving in Beijing, the feeling of uneasiness never appeared again, and Maria felt an indescribable relief.Charles had sent someone to take Andrew back to the Lesser family, while Patrick and Linda followed Charles and Maria back to their villa.Originally, Andrew had strongly invited Patrick to come back to the Lesser family with him, but Patrick knew that the Lesser family was big and complicated, so he used the excuse of being with Linda and followed Charles.***********On the third day, when Luna returned from Brussels, she went directly to Maria’s place and looked at Linda, her expression becoming more flattering."Linda, I heard that your contract with your previous agency is about to expire, right?"Maria sat next to Linda, holding a big doll in her hands, feeling very angry."Yes, they told me before that if I could achieve good results in the training camp this time, they would sign me for another ten years and give me all the resources. But just when I announced my

At this moment, Maria had already packed up and left the hotel with Charles, Linda, Andrew, and others.On the way to the airport, Linda still couldn't understand and turned back to Maria, "Ria, as long as the misunderstanding is resolved, we can still stay in the training camp, right?"Of course, Maria knew that if she returned to the training camp now, everyone would treat her like a deity.Just kidding, being able to decide the life and death of their teacher, they would definitely flatter and serve Maria obediently.Maria shook her head, "Actually, I have already achieved my goal. Linda, if you want to go back, you can go back, no need to accompany me.""Hey!"Linda casually waved her hand, "Without you here, why should I go back? Besides, I have hugged your thigh, and you have hugged Master Smith's thigh. Am I still afraid of not being able to reach the pinnacle of the international piano world?"She said it so casually, as if she was joking. But Maria could tell that she still f
Billionaire substitute bride Helpless
Maria, so smart, why couldn't she understand what they meant?She smiled and turned to shout inside the house, "Honey, it turns out they are looking for you." Charles was inside, and he had heard everything at the door clearly. The girls had looked down on him before and said he was weak, but now they all came to beg him with a straight face. It was really funny.He remained silent for a while before saying, "Ria, in our home, I make the major decisions and you make the minor ones. But in my eyes, besides you, nothing else is a major matter. So, you make the decisions."The girls outside, "..."Didn't that mean that Maria would be in charge of everything in the house?They felt a toothache and couldn't believe they were caught off guard by this unexpected situation.Maria shrugged and looked at them again.Originally, they came to apologize to Maria as a pretense, hoping that she would persuade Charles, but now, the initiative was completely in her hands, and they had to lower their
Billionaire substitute bride Forgiveness
Maria was not foolish. Why did her reputation stink so much? Was it only because of the ambiguous relationship between her and Charles at that banquet?Just that one time was not enough to make everyone dislike and envy her.Lucy's face was extremely embarrassed, but at this moment, she had already lost all confidence in front of Maria and could only cry helplessly."Maria, I really know I was wrong. Can you forgive me? Please...""Lucy, your intentions were truly wicked. You even used Rivata as a weapon. Honestly, I admire you for that."Even while saying this, Maria's expression remained calm, her tone as if chatting with a close friend."You, alone, have bewitched the hearts of all the girls in the training camp. You treated others as pawns to sacrifice for your own gain. Wasn't your goal to drive me out of the camp? Congratulations, you achieved your goal. You should be happy, so why are you crying?"When Maria said this, the other girls immediately began pondering.After thinkin
