Billionaire substitute bride Goodbye
Eva had been with Eric for more than twenty years, and she had no doubt about his feelings for her. Moreover, Eric always took good care of her and loved her deeply. 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. She had started investigating Charles' affairs under the old lady's orders.And since then, she felt that Eric had become more and more distant from her, a distance that she couldn't close no matter what she did.Now that Charles had come to Beijing, she had to make a choice between Eric and Charles. She didn't want to, but she had to…"Eric…"Her voice trembled as she pleaded, looking at him. "Can't you…?""No!"Those two resolute words instantly crushed the only hope in Eva heart.On one side was her husband, and on the other was her biological son, and she owed C

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

Maria POV: should I call you Mia Miller or Maria William?Standing in the airport, I was looking at the mobile app, sweating profusely in anxiety, “Oh no, why is the earliest flight to Mexico at 8 p.m.?”I was not going to Mexico for a vacation or business trip, but to escape from my husband!Two years ago, I, with a face similar to my sister Mia Miller, married the young master of a super-wealthy family in California, Charles Smith.Immediately after the wedding, Charles boarded a flight to Europe.Two years of separation made me almost forget this person. I lived a widow-style marriage pretending to be my sister.But now, my husband who had been gone for two years was about to return!Suddenly, a hand was patted on my shoulder. Irritated, I slapped it away, “Oh please, I don’t know anything. Go ask someone else!”That hand patted my shoulder again.I was so anxious that I turned around abruptly. My mouth had just opened shut in shock.The person who patted me is a man. He wore an exp

While I was asleep, he unlocked my phone and discovered my secret!I broke out in a cold sweat. I don't know what to do. I could only panic and fearfully look at him.Charles chuckled and continued to play with My phone.“Twins, huh… I never expected that the Miller family would give me such a big gift. I’m surprised and curious to know how you two sisters negotiate it. Do you switch places daily?”“No!”I clenched my fists tightly, almost biting my lip until it bled.“Charles…” “Not long ago, you called me darling, didn’t you?”I felt an urge to kill. He already knew the truth. Why did he have to embarrass me like this?The truth has been revealed.When I thought about my father, I wanted to cry. I felt overwhelmed with grievances. If Mia had not threatened my father’s life, I would not have been in this situation.Charles ig

Maria's POV: He did it on purpose!**************************************************Charles was despicable!He knew I was a fake. Why did he still have to show me off?I didn’t care about meeting his so-called friends. I just wanted to quietly be Mia’s shadow like before.Seeing my face full of indignation, Charles raised an eyebrow lightly and asked, “What’s wrong? Don’t you want to go?”He did it again!Did he just threaten me?“Heh…”I took a deep breath and calmly withdrew my hand from his palm and smiled slightly, “No problem.”Charles' deep eyes narrowed immediately as if he was evaluating, scrutinizing me.I stood there calmly, allowing him to look at me.After a moment, Charles chuckled. His big hand gripped my slender waist, “Don’t disappoint me.”************************************The banquet was held at the most luxurious club, Heaven on Earth, California city.When I entered grandly, holding Charles' arm, I instantly attracted everyone's attention.“Young Master Smith!

Chapter 4: If he bullies me, I’ll tell Grandpa. Grandpa can punish him!****************************************************“Nina Lindsey.”Just as I was at a loss, Charles grabbed my hand. I almost stuck my nails in his flesh. Looking at the woman in front of us, Charles said with a frown, “Everyone in California knows that you and Mia do not get along. Stop pretending to be a friend here.”The smile on her face disappeared instantly.****Nina and Mia had the same piano teacher, but Mia had exceptional talent and left her far behind eight years ago. She had always been jealous of Mia and wished she could disappear from California City.Later, Mia was discovered by a piano master and became his last disciple.Since then, she and Mia have been two worlds apart.After that, Nina had never seen Mia again.But even so, she could tell that the woman in front of her was not Mia.“Young Master Smith, that’s an old story. Mia and I…”“Darling.”Immediately, Maria gently shook Charles' arm

Maria POV:At that moment, my phone suddenly buzzed. My tense heart jumped to my throat. I quickly took out my phone without even looking at the caller ID, I hung up the call and stared nervously at Old Master Smith. Old Master Smith Held the marriage certificate and examined it front and back. He touched it lovely as if it was his own marriage certificate. The smile in his eyes was so intense that it could overflow.“Great! This is great! My grandson is finally married and has a wife.” He said joyfully.After that, he slowly opened the certificate…I was so nervous that my eyes almost popped out. At that moment, my phone rang again.I wasn’t in the mood to answer the call, so I directly pressed the side button to silence the phone. Then I widened my eyes anxiously and stared at Old Master Smith flipping to the side with photos.I just felt like entering the ground. I felt doomed.My heart tightened. I almost collapsed to the ground, sweating and feeling cold at the same time. I had

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

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

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

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

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
