My Substitute Wife is a Bigwig novel Chapter 207

Loid laughed out loud with a tender look in his eyes. "One cent in interest. How does that sound?"

"Deal," Lily readily agreed.

It felt good to be spending her fiancé's money.

Meanwhile, Shaun felt envious of the couple's loving interaction.

…

After dinner, Lily texted Venom on her way back to the Laurier residence: "Your whereabouts are exposed. Someone will look for you at Alchos. Get Hawk to help you with the disguise."

Soon, she received a reply: "Fuck! Who are they? I thought you edited my coordinates."

Stealing a glance at Loid, she found him enjoying some shut-eye. She looked away and fell into a short silence. Then, she wrote: "They're the people who were after you today."

Speechless, Venom thought, "Ugh, they won't stop haunting me!"

Venom: "Cool. I have trust in Hawk's disguise techniques. I'll be waiting for them at Alchos. Let's see if they'll recognize me. Thanks."

Lily did not reply this time. She tucked her phone into her pocket and had some shut-eye. She hadn't asked Loid about his grudge with Venom. After all, it wasn't a conflict she could resolve in person.

Many of her identities had been exposed lately. She would only invite trouble if people found out she was K from Alchos.

Nodding, Lily took a seat beside him.

"I heard you cured Loid's illness. Is that true?" Arthur forced a smile to make himself appear friendly and warm. Having spent years in business, he carried himself with an intimidating air, which he feared might be offputting for Lily.

Staring at her feet, she replied softly, "Yes."

"Great. Great." Nodding furiously, Arthur praised her, "You're so successful at such a young age! Melanie was right. Loid doesn't deserve you!"

Loid was rendered wordless at Arthur's backhanded compliment.

Tilting her head, Lily glanced at him with a smile. "He's fine, I guess. I don't have high standards."
