The Substitute Bride

"My daughter died in vain! I will get justice for her! You're going to pay for that!" the woman screamed out loud.

After Sue went upstairs, she felt ill at ease. She could not find it in herself to leave them behind, so she went back down stealthily. She kept a close eye on the situation. When she heard the woman asking for her, she walked out of the door and answered, "I'm right here. What do you want from me?"

"Sue, why are you here?" Sheryl and Anthony asked, frowning. Her appearance surprised everyone. Anthony told her, "Get inside and go upstairs. This has nothing to do with you."

"He's right, Sue," Laura echoed. She tried to persuade her, "You don't need to worry about it. As long as I'm here, there is nothing they can do to us. You can rest assured."

"Thank you, Aunt. But they came here for me. If I don't show my face, they're not going to leave," Sue replied calmly. "Don't worry about me. I can handle it."

Sheryl stood next to Sue, planning to protect her in case anything happened.

The woman sneered when she saw Sue, "So, you finally decided to show up!"

"Yes. Here I am." Sue nodded slightly. She looked at the woman coldly and asked, "What do you want? Tell me!"

The woman was stunned by her question. She hadn't anticipated such a response and so had not planned exactly what she wanted from Sue.

The murderer Allen had already escaped and was nowhere to be found. She could only come to the last person she was able to find in Allen's family. But what could she do to Sue? Nothing would replace the loss of her beloved daughter. The woman could only yell at her, "Give me your brother Allen Wang! I won't let him live freely in this world! He killed my dearest daughter! She was so young and she even had a baby!"

"I have no idea where he is. I want you to do me a favor. If you manage to find out his whereabouts, please do inform me at your earliest convenience," Sue told the woman in a cool, calculated tone.

"Don't even think of lying to me!" The woman could not believe Sue's words. She glared at Sue and shouted angrily, "Bullshit! Who else could know his whereabouts except you? You are his sister. It's impossible that he is not in contact with you."

"Whether you choose to believe me or not, that is the truth," Sue replied coldly. "I have told you everything I know."

"Mom! Don't bother listening to her!

to sell his wife for money. And you, a fraud who tries to blackmail innocent people! The saying is right, 'birds of the feather flock together!'"

As soon as Laura finished, the spectators around them started to whisper and nudge each other, pointing at the fat woman. She could hear them mocking Doris.

More and more people were starting to gather. The newcomers asked the others what was going on and the story of the disgraceful family was spread. Their voices grew louder and louder. The fat woman felt both ashamed and angry at the same. She rushed towards Laura and screamed, "You old bitch! What bullshit are you talking about?"

But before she could reach Laura, Anthony stopped her. "Ma'am, if you dare to lay a finger on my mother, I promise I will send you to police station!

I know you are sad that you lost your daughter. But you have to understand that Sue has nothing to do with it. If you keep harassing us, I have no choice but to call the police," Anthony warned her.

"Don't you dare threaten me!" the woman sneered. "I'll teach all of you a lesson today! I'll make all of you suffer!"

As she spoke, she rushed towards Sue suddenly with her hand raised. Sheryl was shocked by the scene but reacted quickly. In a wink, she rushed to hold Sue in her arms and the harsh slap meant for Sue came in contact with her back.

The fat woman was extremely strong, and she had put all her strength into the slap. Her aggression took everyone by surprise and even scared the audience. The scene of a slim, beautiful lady being beaten up left everyone in silence.
