My Substitute Wife is a Bigwig (Loud and Lily) novel Chapter 191

The woman staggered and almost lost her balance because Lily pulled her by the collar.

Loid looked at Lily and smiled. Was she jealous? It was a good sign.

The woman steadied herself and glared at Lily. "Hey? Who do you think you are? Why are you so rude? Do you know who I am?"

Lily raised an eyebrow and glanced at Loid as if interrogating him about his relationship with the woman.

Loid shrugged at her with an innocent expression.

Lily accepted that. She turned to look at the woman while her hands were stuffed in her pockets. Then, she said nonchalantly, "I have no idea."

Her words angered the woman even more. The woman went up to Loid and tried to hold his hand, but Lily appeared before Loid instantly.

The woman stomped her leg in frustration when she didn't get what she wanted.

"Loid, is this person a bodyguard you've just hired? She's so rude, acting like this in Laurier Residence. Please put her in her place."

"I can't do that. Why don't you give it a try?" Loid asked with a smile. He seemed very happy because Lily was getting jealous over him.

Lily glanced at him coldly and walked to the side. "Go ahead and hug her then, Mr. Laurier."

Loid's lips twitched. He had overdone it. Lily was getting angry.

"Loid…"

The woman's face flushed when she noticed that Loid was exchanging glances with Lily.

Before she could say anything else, someone called out to her, "Yolanda, stop it. Loid just got home. Let him catch his breath."

"That woman is Yolanda Albott. She's Joanne's only daughter and the favorite granddaughter of the Albott family," Daniel said as he pointed at the woman who had tried to hug Loid a moment ago.

Then, he added, "Ms. Albott used to visit Laurier Residence frequently when she was a child. She spent a lot of time following Loid around.

"Initially, the Albott family wanted to arrange a marriage between her and Loid. But then they heard that Loid was poisoned and disfigured. So, they called it off."

Daniel was afraid that Lily might have a misunderstanding. So, he explained, "But please don't misunderstand. Loid doesn't have any feelings for her.

"It's just that things are very complicated in the Laurier family. It's hard to explain everything to you all at once. All you need to know is that Loid's just playing along on the surface."

Lily nodded. Then, she looked at Loid.

He was surrounded by a bunch of people. He had an annoyed expression on his face but was still responding to them expressionlessly.
