The Billionaire CEO And His Substitute Wife chapter 75
Chapter 75Sheila thought about it before she sent Lynn a message, “Lynn, find an opportunity to sneak back to your hotel room. Be careful not to be discovered by anyone.”Lynn sighed heavily after reading Sheila’s message. She wondered when she had become a fugitive, always doing things sneakily.Emmy had been buried in her academic research the whole day. She felt tired as she stretched her hands lazily. She looked at the noodles on the table, her stomach rumbling. She would soon have her father back, and all her money would be used to pay his medical bill, so she could not afford to misuse even a single cent.Just as she was about to open the noodles, her phone rang.She frowned as she went to take a look, “Who could it be?”Emmy took a look at her phone and when she saw the caller ID, her frown deepened. Why would Sheila be calling her at this hour?She answered the phone and put it on her ear, “What’s up?”Sheila’s urgent voice came through the speaker, “Emmy, I need you to get h

Chapter 76Emmy blinked, her long eyelashes fluttering like butterflies. An idea struck her mind and suddenly, she took the wine glass from Sheila’s hand and downed it one gulp.Everyone was stunned. The glass that Sheila had been holding was filled with hard liquor, and “Lynn” just drank it as if she were drinking water.Director Grant was the first to return to his senses. He laughed out loud as he spoke, his voice full of admiration, “Ha ha, Master Young was right. Lynn can really hold her liquor. Even after so many glasses, she can still stand on her feet.”Vince, however, was not pleased. His brows furrowed as he narrowed his eyes dangerously at Emmy. He went and snatched the wine glass from Emmy before he placed it on the table with a thud!He coldly looked at the people who were admiring Emmy and spoke in an emotionless voice, “Lynn has had enough alcohol tonight, she cannot consume anymore.”The chilling look in his eyes made everyone grasp in panic. Someone seemed to have pre

Chapter 77Sheila cursed when she did not get through to Lynn. She was about to go out and look for her when her sixth sense sensed trouble.She looked over and saw a beautiful woman, donning a well-tailored evening dress. She was intimately holding a middles-aged man arm as they stood in front of Emmy and Vince.Sheila could not help but curse out, “Darn it! What is Cecil doing here?”She quickly put her phone in her hand bag and hurried over.Emmy stared at Cecil, a small smile replacing her initial awkwardness. She had no idea who the woman was.Upon seeing “Lynn’s” friendly smile, Cecil let out a cold laugh, “Ah, look who we have here. Lynn, if you had not snatched my collaboration with Graund back then, I would have been the youngest pianist in the country.”She laughed sarcastically as she continued, “So, even after stealing what was meant for me back then, you couldn’t even make a name for yourself in the piano world? Resort to acting is a really an insult!”Although Emmy had n

Chapter 78Lynn had told her that she learned most of her piano skills from her father, Leo McKenzie. Maybe Emmy had also learned a thing or two, given that she was Leo’s daughter. But could Emmy’s skills be compared to Lynn’s?Lynn’s whole life revolved around the piano, and what of Emmy? Did she even know how many keys are on the piano?With Emmy’s mediocre skills, Cecil would defeat her even with her eyes closed.Sheila felt like she was about to lose her mind. She tugged at Emmy's hand and when she finally got her attention, she whispered to her, “Emmy, I am warning you, stop this drama right now before you put Lynn’s career in jeopardy. Do you want to actually put your family at risk just so you could satisfy your ego?”Emmy did not say anything. She glanced at her before she turned around and spoke to Cecil, “Fine, I will take the bet.”Sheila was shocked. She felt like she was about to faint.Emmy is looking for trouble, and Lynn would be the one to face the consequences of her

Chapter 79A surge of delight filled her heart. All the negative feelings she had about Emmy vanished in thin air.Why would she waste her resources promoting the stagnant Lynn when the already-made Emmy was right in front of her eyes?With Emmy’s piano skills, the only thing that she needed was exposure. She only needed a stage and boom; she would become an international pianist in no time.Visualizing everything in her mind made Sheila tear up. How she wanted to just rush up to the stage and sign the contract with Emmy right away.On the other hand, Cecil’s smug smile froze when Emmy started the play the piano. Her confidence shattered as her face paled. She had not expected that “Lynn” had leveled up so much, that catching up to her would definitely require a decade of relentless practice.No wonder she had readily agreed to the bet. She was setting a trap for her and clearly wanted to embarrass her.Cecil had thought that she was playing mind games with “Lynn”, but as it turns out

Chapter 80She went to a corner and took a deep breath before she downed a glass of juice.She was processing everything that had happened when she heard an excited voice calling her from behind. She did not even have to turn around to know who it was. Sheila approached her as she excitedly spoke, “Lynn, you are quite something. I am finding it hard to believe what I have just witnessed.”Emmy rolled her eyes until they reached her skull. She placed the empty glass on the table before she turned around and looked at Sheila with a sarcastic smile, “Who was yapping in my ears a moment ago that Lynn’s career was going to be ruined because of me?”Hearing that, Sheila slapped her mouth as she laughed awkwardly, “Ah, I was blind please forgive me, Your Highness.”Sheila gave Emmy a proper look. The more she looked at her, the more she realized that she was pretty than Lynn and she even exhibited an air of elegance that was lacking in Lynn.Sheila glanced around sneakily. After making sure

Chapter 81“I…”Sheila was getting annoyed. She spoke in an emotionless voice, “Have you looked at yourself in the mirror? Do you want everyone to know what happened between you and that psychopath?”Lynn bit her lips. Unable to utter even a single word. She felt as if she was about to lose her mind.Sheila looked at her and her voice softened a bit. They had been together for many years and even if it was just a business relationship, she cared a little about her. She spoke in a soft voice, “Lynn, for the sake of your future, this is the only way. We cannot let your career be ruined just like that.”“We are yet to start filming. If we tell director Grant that you are sick and you need a week off, do you think that he will be happy? It was already hard enough for you to secure this role.”Lynn knew that with her current state, she would only be making things difficult for herself if she insisted on appearing in the public. There would be many questions and she had no idea if she would

Chapter 82Emmy was startled, “Vince, what are you doing? The key is still inside.”Not just the room key. Every last one of her belongings were in that room.Vince did not let go off her as he walked towards the elevator, “You don’t have to worry about anything. Tom will bring all your things over.”“Hey, wait… you.”Emmy tried to remove her hand from his powerful grip but her efforts were pointless. Her frustration was reaching another level and how she wished that she could strangle Vince to death.She was furious as she asked, “Vince, what on earth do you think you are trying to do? Let go of me! didn’t you want to find out where your wife is staying? Where are you taking me? What if someone sees us, how will I be able to explain?”“Explain what?”Vince glanced at her, still holding her hand tightly, “In everyone’s eyes, you are my wife, my Mrs. Young.”Calling her his Mrs. Young made Emmy feel as if honey was dripping from her heart, filling her entire body with sweetness.But sh

Chapter 189Emmy and Vince were strolling on the beach when Vince suddenly stripped and fell down. Emmy quickly went to help him up, but Vince changed the position, and he suddenly knelt on one knee.Emmy was surprised, and she was about to support him when a beautiful ring appeared in her line of sight out of nowhere.Her mind blanked as she looked at Vince, her eyes widened, “What are you doing?”“Emmy, I have been to almost every part of this world. I have interacted with royalties and ordinary people alike. I have seen many beautiful ladies, but you, my dear, you are different. The moment I laid my eyes on you, I knew that I wanted you for life.”“You are beautiful, you are talented, you are kind, you love with your whole heart, how could I not want to spend the rest of my life with you? I never for once searched for love, but you made me effortlessly love you.”“I hear people saying that finding true love in this complicated world is just an illusion, but I found true love in you

Chapter 188Daniel was excited when the Roberts finally called him. He even took his father along.“Father, we are finally going to become in-laws with the Roberts family. I am so excited that I can’t wait.”“Son, you have done a good job. I am so proud of you.”…At the Roberts family…Lynn had been locked in her room for the past two days. No matter what she did, she was not allowed to leave the mansion. Her phone had also been confiscated, and she could not call anyone for help.Although she was being provided with food and everything she needed, she had become haggard due to stress. Her father had not come to visit her even once, and she was very tense.Lynn finally heaved a sigh of relief when the servants came to call her, “Lynn, the Second Master wants to see you. Quickly freshen up and head to the living room.”Lynn was excited. Finally, she was getting out of this room. She was going to complain to her father just how inhumane she had been treated for the past few days.Lynn

Chapter 187Old Mrs. Roberts was almost in tears as she looked at her son, “My dear son, are you okay?”Leo looked at his mother with tears in his eyes. He could not believe that he had finally regained his memories. The first thing he spoke about after opening his eyes was Emmy.“Mom, I want to see Emmy. I want to see her right away.”Old Mrs. Roberts was confused, “Son, what are you talking about? Why do you want to see Emmy after everything she did to you?”“Mom, I will explain everything to you later. But I have to see Emmy right away. Also, make sure that Lynn does not go anywhere. Don’t let her leave the Roberts mansion at any cost.”Although Mrs. Roberts was confused, she still nodded her head. She went to her husband and conveyed her son’s message.Old Mr. Roberts did not express much. He looked like he had expected it, “Let us do as he says.”Lynn had left the hospital before her father woke up. Since the doctors had said that the surgery was a success, there was no doubt tha

Chapter 186A few days had passed, and Daniel had not received any positive feedback from Layla. He was on the verge of losing his mind.“Layla, what is your father saying? The media is making fun of you. What are you going to do about it?”“Daniel, I cannot give you a reply right now. My uncle would be undergoing surgery to try and regain his memories, my dad is also busy looking through what exactly happened the other night, so please, I appreciate your concern, but you have to be patient, and wait for a little while.”“After helping you and even saving your life, this is what I get in return. I even offered to take responsibility for what happened, but you are still delaying things?”Layla was about to reply when her father’s voice sounded from behind, “Who is on the phone?”Layla turned around, “Dad… it… It is nothing.”“Give me the phone.”Layla had no choice but to hand the phone to her father. Andrew took the phone and spoke in a cold voice, “You bastard, are you forcing my dau

Chapter 185At the hotel…Layla took a shower. Thinking about what had transpired, she could not help but cry out in pain. What made her cry even harder was the fact that she could not remember a thing.“Gosh, why did this have to happen to me? How am I going to face anyone from today onwards?”Daniel looked at the bathroom door that was tightly closed and smiled contentedly. Now, he would be like a hero to the Roberts family, and he was sure that they would fulfill all his wishes.He took his phone and texted Lynn, “We are about to leave. I hope the reporters are on standby.”Lynn’s reply came almost immediately, “They have been outside the room the entire night, don’t worry, they won’t go away so easily.”Daniel also took a shower. He did not want to raise any suspicion, especially now that his plan was almost successful.The moment he opened the hotel door, the reporters surrounded them.Daniel appeared shocked as he drew Layla into his arms. He looked at the reporters and question

Chapter 184“I remember you, you are Lynn’s brother, right?”Daniel nodded.“How the hell did this happen? My mind is so messed up, and I don’t remember anything.”Daniel looked at her and smiled secretly. The person who sold him the drug had said that it would be hard for the person who took it to remember anything. Their memories would be all over the place, and it seemed that he had been right about it.“Well, I don’t know if you are going to believe me or not, but I saved your life yesterday night.”“What do you mean you saved my life? What exactly happened? Can you please speak up!”Daniel started to narrate the story that he had formed with Lynn.“All that happened without my knowledge?” Layla asked in a disbelieving tone.“I found you in the washroom, and you were almost out of breath. I recognized you and helped you to your room. I just never imagined that…”Layla held her face in her hands. She was so confused that she did not know what to do.If what Daniel said was true, sh

Chapter 183With the Roberts family intervention, the scandal surrounding Lynn was quietened down. Since Vince had not made another move, her tensed heart also calmed down.Just as she thought that she had dodged the bullet and she would have a few peaceful days, Daniel called her, “Lynn, we only have two days until Friday, what is your plan?”Remembering everything she had been through and the obvious doubt that the Roberts family had against her, Lynn did not think that she would be able to pull it off.“Daniel, can we do this some other time, please? I have been through a lot of troubles lately; I don’t think that I will be able to pull this off.”Daniel was quiet for a minute before he spoke up, “In that case, I will just forward this video to every member of the Roberts family, or should I just post it online?”Lynn felt like crying after hearing that. She gritted her teeth and spoke, “Daniel, please, don’t do this to me. I will help you. I will make arrangements. Just be there, o

Chapter 182Lynn was forced out of her room by the members of the Roberts family. Old Mr. Roberts wanted to oust her from the house right there and then, but Leo stopped him.“Dad, we should listen to what Lynn has to say. What if she is being framed?”Seeing that there were hopes for her to redeem herself, Lynn fell to her knees and hugged Leo’s legs. As long as her father still believed in her, she would have the chance to turn things around.“Dad, I am so sad. I don’t know what I did to deserve all these. I wonder what Emmy really wants with my life.”“What do you mean?” Old Mrs. Roberts glared at her with cold eyes. Her family had never faced such humiliation all these years, and because of her, they were now being roasted by the media.“Dad, I am innocent. I did not do anything. I have been staying home all this time, how could I know all these bad people? I think that Emmy did it on purpose. She wanted to frame me.”“And why would Emmy do that, huh?” Old Mr. Roberts asked. He wa

Chapter 181Tom could not take it anymore. He went to Vince and tried to stop him, “Boss, you need to calm down.”Vince did not say anything. He looked at his watch as if he was doing a countdown. Five minutes later, a phone ringtone broke the deadly silence in the room.“Bring it to me.”The goons had been beaten black and blue, and they had no way of resisting. The phone was handed to Vince, who picked it up and put it on loudspeaker.Lynn’s excited voice came through the phone, “Any updates? Is the job done? Have you already dealt with the bitch?”No one spoke on the other side of the phone. Lynn got frustrated and shouted, “Can’t you hear me? Have you gone deaf? I haven’t received a single picture or video from you. Is the job done or not?”After what seemed like forever, Vince’s cold voice came through the speaker, “Lynn Roberts, right? I see that you have grown wings after joining the Roberts family. Do they know what you have been up to?”Lynn was so shocked that her whole body
