Captured Hearts: The Substitute Bride's Gambit

Lin Chuyi spent three years vetting the perfect boyfriend—only to be cheated on within a month. She dumped him instantly, then stepped in as the Ye family’s stand-in daughter and married wealthy heir Sheng Tingyuan. Her plan: vanish gracefully once the real daughter returns. But Sheng Tingyuan blocks her exit. You lied to me, and now you want to run? Lin Chuyi fires back, Don’t you hate liars the most? Should I stay and wait for punishment? He corners her, voice low. You’re not “other people,” wife.
