All Chapters of Saved To Be A Substitute: Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

Author's POV.Lillian knew she had to do something to help Alexander out of this situation because it was obvious that Jessica would rip him off if they got married. "If I tell Mrs McQueen about what Jessica said, would she agree?" Lillian thought. "No, she wouldn't believe me. A single twisted lie from Jessica and Mrs McQueen would have another reason to hate me," She shook her head. Lillian continued thinking of how to move forward, but nothing came to her mind. Eventually, she gave up and decided to concentrate on work. As she grabbed her uniform and closed her locker, she headed to the dressing room and changed. Her busy night began, but it was more tedious than other days. There were much more customers than before. It felt like their reservations were unending. Once her shift was over, she ensured to slip away from the restaurant without anyone's notice. She didn't want Vincent to take her home. Upon reaching her apartment, she found Alexander sitting upright on the couch,

Lillian's POV. "Lillian, I don't think you know what you're saying. You want us to get back together?" Alexander asked, staring at me in disbelief. I exhaled sharply and nodded, "Yes, I want us to get back together."This decision felt a bit sudden, but there was no way to protect Alexander from Jessica. I had to make sure she never hurt him, and the only way I could do that was by being close to him, Besides, I had been yearning constantly for him. So, instead of letting someone like Jessica keep us apart, I should be with the man I loved. "Lillian, I know I'm asking for a chance, but just last night you said we should move on. I hope you aren't doing this because you're sort of pitying me," He said, looking weary. I felt worse about last night. I had hurt him so much by my rejection. "Alexander, I'm not doing this because I pity you or feel sorry for you. I'm doing this because I want to protect you and because I love you. Everything I said last night wasn't true," I confessed

Author's POV. "It's good to hear that," the voice on the other end replied with a tinge of satisfaction. "How am I going to get rid of her if I'm still stuck here? Will you bail me out immediately or—" "Yes, you will be bailed out soon and then you can get rid of her. Once you do that, I'll get you a lawyer and you'll be free." the voice responded. A smile instantly appeared on Dustin's lips. He was so happy to hear that. However, he was concerned about the person's identity. "Please, who are you?" Dustin inquired, his curiosity piqued. "You don't have to know. All you've got to understand is that I'm here to help you and you will do whatever I say in return," the voice blurted. "Alright, but I have to inform you that killing her wouldn't be too easy because of her connection with an influential person... and wouldn't it cause me more problems if she dies at the same period I'm out of jail? Wouldn't it be suspicious?" Dustin asked, wearily. "You do not have to worry about that

Author's POV. Alexander was shocked by Vincent's words. He didn't want to act jealous but couldn't help it. "Can't you read the room? Or are you purposely being dumb?" Alexander questioned, anger evident in his voice. "I'm not jumping to any conclusions until Lillian is willing to explain what is happening here," Vincent retorted, glancing at Lillian. "You—" Alexander began, but Lillian interrupted him. "Vincent, I haven't eaten yet. I would love to go to the new café with you," She muttered, forcing a smile."Lillian, you can't do this," Alexander interjected, allowing his jealousy to completely take over. "Alexander, you remember what I said to you days ago, right?" Lillian asked.Alexander recalled what she had told him, but he couldn't be comfortable knowing that Vincent was actively pursuing her. He couldn't bear it."I remember every word, and I trust you very much, but I can't trust him," Alexander spat, glaring at VincentVincent glared back, refusing to back down. "You

Alexander's POV "Jessica, what is the meaning of this?" She yelled, sounding more horrified than furious.She raised the phone to Jessica, who grew paler at the sight of what was shown to her."This isn't...real," Jessica lied, shaking her head."I can't believe you're still refusing to accept the truth. There's a piece of evidence here with your name and a similar time frame. Just agree that all this has been a sham and save yourself from embarrassment!" I snapped, glaring at her."I won't admit to what I haven't done. You're just bringing this up to break up this agreement. How are you even sure that I booked that flight? Did you confirm if I was on the plane or if I was even at the airport at that time? Can you prove any of those things?" She challenged.I was a bit taken aback because Martin didn't send any of that evidence. There was no visual evidence that she booked the flight or entered the plane."Jessica, do you know how much my son suffered because of your absence? It was
