The Substitute Billionaire Wife のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

Lilian's heart pounded in her chest as tears rolled down her eyes. The words of her father echoed through her ears, creating a livid expression on her body. What her father had just asked her to do was the most terrible and forbidden thing to do. Mr Alfred looked at his daughter in pity, he regretted what he was asking her to do and wished he didn't have to do it."My dear, daughter. You must understand that this is beyond my will, Sebastian is not a bad person, he's been married to your sister for years and now that your sister is dead, you have to take her place as his wife."Lilian shook her head, her dark brown hair falling across her face with a thud. "I can't marry Sebastian, Father. it's only been one week after Katherine's death." Lillian's voice quivered as she spoke, the emotions that were swirling within her were too overwhelming. "I can't get married to her husband, people will think I killed her just because I wanted Sebastian."Mr Alfred rubbed his hand against his foreh

Sebastian walked further into the room with an angry look plastered all over his face, his tall, lean frame displaying confidence and arrogance. His chiseled features were set in a disgusted expression, his deep, penetrating gaze seemingly appraising the situation with contempt."Why are you bordering yourself, Mother? You can't force a lady like her into accepting something," Sebastian said, his tone dripping with hatred as he cast an angry look in Lilian's direction.Lilian felt a sinking sensation in the pit of her stomach as Sebastian's gaze settled on her, his arrogant behavior sending a shiver of unease down her spine.With a casual flick of his hand buried in the pockets of his pants, Sebastian continued, "This isn't something you should be begging her to do, we're doing her family a favor by accepting her. If she doesn't want to agree let her be."Lilian's heart sank as Sebastian's words washed over her, she concealed the tear that filled her eyes. She didn't want him to see he

Days turned into weeks, and Lilian found herself trapped in a never-ending cycle of torment at Sebastian's hands. Despite her efforts to appease him, to prove her worthiness as a wife and a member of his family, he continued to treat her with contempt, using her as little more than a servant to tend to his every whim.Each morning, Lilian would rise before dawn, her body weary and her spirit broken, to begin her daily routine of house chores. She scrubbed floors until her hands were raw, cooked meals until her back ached, and tended to every need of Sebastian and his daughter with a sense of resignation.But no matter how hard she worked, no matter how much she tried to earn his approval, Sebastian remained unmoved, his heart hardened against her like stone. He continued to refuse her even the most basic comforts, denying her the right to sleep in his bed and instructing her to sleep on the cold, hard floor each night.Lilian endured his cruel behavior to her without complaint, her lov

Lilian was startled by the sound of the doorbell echoing through the empty halls as left what she was teaching Katie and hurried to answer it, her heart pounding in her chest as she wondered who it might be. To her surprise, she found her father standing on the doorstep, his face filled with concern as he took in her appearance. "Lilian, my dear, are you alright?" her father asked, his voice filled with worry as he reached out to embrace her. Lilian forced a smile, though she knew her father could see through the pretense. "I'm fine, Father. Please, come in," she replied, stepping aside to allow him to enter into the grand display of the mansion. As they made their way to the sitting room, Lilian's father cast another look around the elegant surroundings, his brow furrowing in awe at the sight of the lavish furnishings and extravagant decorations. "I must say, Lilian, this is quite the place you've found yourself in," he remarked, his tone filled with gladness as he took a seat o

As Sebastian returned to the bedroom after tucking Katie into bed, his gaze fell upon Lilian sleeping peacefully on the floor. A pang of remorse washed over him as he remembered their wedding night, when he had asked her to sleep on the floor. He wanted to walk by but a part of him didn't want to as he fight the urge not to listen to the thought that ran through his mind. "Lilian," Sebastian called out softly, his voice laced with regret as he approached her. "I don't want you to sleep on the floor, anymore. Come, join me on the bed." Lilian stirred at the sound of his voice, her eyes fluttering open in surprise. She sat up slowly, her heart pounding in her chest as she thought about Sebastian's unexpected offer. "I... I appreciate your concern for me, but I'm fine here," she replied hesitantly, her voice filled with uncertainty. But Sebastian didn't listened to her. A part of him couldn't bear the thought of Lilian sleeping on the floor another night. "Lilian, please," Sebastian
