My Substitute Wife Is a Bigwig (Lily Brooks and Loid Laurier)

Chapter 57 

Yannick had just returned from a business trip when he heard his son’s leg had been disabled. He rushed to Lagersfield right away. 

As soon as he arrived at the ward in Lagersfield City Hospital, his wife, Aubrey, threw herself into his arms and bawled “Yannick, you have to seek justice for our son. His legis paralyzed. He won’t be able to walk anymore.” 

Aubrey was crying herself hoarse. Her tears had even smudged her makeup 

“Dad, you have to avenge mel” Jack yelled while lying on the bed. 

“What happened exactly?” Yannick appeared upset. 

He was well aware of his son’s personality. It Jack hadn’t offended anyone, his leg would not have been crippled. 

“A transfer student in my school did it. She crippled me on the first day she transferred here. Dad, she targeted me on purpose.” Jack knew Yannick well. If he told his father about his behavior in school, his other leg would be broken as well. 

“Besides, she said that she wanted to destroy me. You have to save me, or she’ll actually kill me.” 

Ever since the incident, Aubrey had reached out to many renowned doctors. All of them said that his leg was irreparable. 

Jack hated Lily. He wanted to make her pay. 

However, he didn’t expect Lily to fight so well. Over 30 bodyguards of the Dalton family were brought down by Lily. Moreover, she had said that she wanted to destroy him. 

When Jack found out, he threw a fit Nevertheless, he was powerless. Even the bodyguards couldn’t defeat Lily, so there was nothing he could do. He could only count on his father to avenge him. 

“Yannick, that transfer student is so conceited. She was able to disable our son’s leg today. I’m sure she’ll actually try to kill him tomorrow. You can’t let her end the Dalton family’s lineage!” 

With a scowl, Yannick pushed Aubrey away and fixed his eyes on Jack. He scolded him sternly, “I’ve told you countless times to quit making trouble at school, but you never listened. Do you think our family is impressive? 

“There are so many people with greater power than the Dalton family. Even though she knew who you were, she still dared to disable your leg. It’s clear that she’s not afraid of the Dalton family.” 

Yannick looked disappointed. “Yet you want me to avenge you?” 

“Yannick, how can you be like this? You know your sen. He’s from a rich family, but he never hurts others. They say that Lily Brooks is just a brat from a rural area. She has no impressive background or power. She’s just good at fighting— 

In the middle of Aubrey’s speech, Yannick suddenly narrowed his eyes and grabbed her hand. He asked through gritted teeth, “Who did you say she is?” 

“W–What’s the matter? Aubrey had never seen Yannick act like that. She trembled in fear, 

Yannick tightened his grip, his steely face cold. “I’m asking you, what’s the name of that transfer student?” 

“Lily Brooks.” Aubrey glanced at him, puzzled. She did not understand why Yannick did not care about his son’s leg but was concerned about the transfer student’s name. 

Yannick took his phone out and pulled up a photo. “is this her?” 

After a glance, Jack nodded. “It’s her.” 

Yannick staggered and almost slumped to the ground. 

His only thoughts were, “We’re doomed!” 

Aubrey quickly supported him. “Yannick, are you okay?” 

Yannick came out of his daze, slapped Jack’s face, and said in a fury, “You’re a disgrace. You’ve ruined the Dalton family!” 

Seeing that Jack was hit, Aubrey quicldy shielded him. “Why did you hit our son? He’s already devastated from losing his leg, You refuse to avenge him, and you even hit him. How can you even call yourself a father?” 

“You!” Yannick clutched his chest, livid. “It’s all because you’ve spoiled him.” 

After taking a deep breath, Yannick glared at Jack. “You, go apologize to Lily. Right now!”
