President's Substitute Wife

Her makeup was stained with her tears. It was only one night, but she looked a lot older.

She looked at us and asked, "how's Dad?"

"The operation is successful." Sean replied, but he was cold.

Michelle breathed a sigh of relief and said, "thank God."

With that, she turned and wanted to leave.

Sean looked at her and said, "Auntie, you don't have to blame yourself. Ward took advantage of you."

"I'm stupid." Michelle turned her back to us and looked down. "I knew it was impossible for such a handsome, excellent and young man to love me, but I thought there was little possibility." She didn't go on and left with her head down.

I was a little worried. "Will something happen to your aunt?"

"Don't worry. She's good at self-regulation." He patted me on the shoulder. "Take a break. You stayed up all night."

"It's okay. I'm not tired. Let's visit Grandpa Jessop first." I insisted.

Sean didn't force me.

James did get out of danger, but he couldn't even get out of bed.

After his health improved, we visited him.

Sean told James about Ward. He sighed. "His grandfather was stubborn. I didn't expect them to be the same." "It's all over." Sean said.

James was watching Sean. There was noise behind us. He looked behind us and shouted, "Ming."

I turned my head, too.

Ming was standing at the door.

He pushed the wheelchair for Marcia.

Marcia was in a wheelchair and covered in a blanket. She had a hat on her head and no hair. She was bony and had tape on the back of her hand.

Marcia said respectfully to James, "Uncle Jessop, long time no see."

Seeing Marcia, James seemed to understand something. He said with a smile, "Marcia, long time no see. I'm glad to see you."

"Me too." Marcia replied.

Ming pushed Marcia in and said to James, "Dad, Marcia and I are getting married."

"Good." James heard the news and didn't object.

He smiled with relief.

He reached out. Ming immediately pushed Marcia in front of him. James took Marcia's hand and said, "I've been waiting for this day for decades. Fortunately, I succeeded." We stayed in the ward with Ming for a while. James was on treatment, so the four of us came out together.

When we got out, Marcia said, "Miss Jones, are you getting married?"

I touched my stomach. "We have to wait for a while and maybe until the baby is born."

Marcia nodded. "Actually, I made two wedding dresses for you. The other one is in my studio. You can go to Paula when you're going to get married."

I left the last wedding dress Marcia made for me at Sean's house.

I was a little shy. "You're so kind."

Marcia smiled. "You look beautiful in your wedding dress. We will be one family later. You are welcome."

"Thank you." When I finished, I looked up and asked Ming, "Marcia's condition..."

"It's getting better." Ming answered.

I was relieved to hear that.

We left the ward together.

We just got to the door when a few policemen rushed in. They saw us and came straight up.

I got nervous.

The police came up and stood in

front of Ming. They said, "Mr. Jessop, someone said you were suspected of illegal imprisonment. Please come back to the police station with us."

We were shocked when the policemen said it.

Especially Marcia. She grabbed Ming and asked in a panic, "you're wrong."

The policemen ignored Marcia and just said to Ming, "please cooperate."

Ming nodded. I knew he was not surprised by the arrival of the police and what they said.

It seemed that he knew what the police said very well.

Ming turned and patted Marcia on the shoulder. "Wait for me. I'll be back soon. It's OK."

"But..."

"I'll follow."

Sean said.

He left, too.

I pushed Marcia back to her ward. I was afraid Marcia was worried, so I had been with her.

In the ward, Marcia grabbed me and kept saying, "can you call Sean and ask what's going on?"

I was afraid there was really bad news. I didn't dare to call and could only comfort her, "he's at the police station and it's not convenient to answer the phone. He will definitely contact me when he comes out.”

Marcia was in a wheelchair. I could see that she was helpless.

She stared out of the window. "He promised me that he would never do anything bad again. Why..."

"Marcia." I went over and took Marcia's hand. "Don't you believe him?"

"I..." Marcia looked at me and her eyes were confused.

I understood her.

What Ming did and his calm when he was taken away by the police made Marcia suspect.

I spent a day with Marcia in the hospital.

I finally got a call from Sean in the evening.

He just told me, "he's on bail, but now I need to talk to the lawyer about this case. I can't go to the hospital for the time being."

"What's the matter? Who did he imprison?" I asked nervously.

I really didn't know.

Sean was silent for a while and seemed to hesitate. At last he told me, "Erin."

I understood immediately.

No wonder Erin seemed to have disappeared.

Ming found her and locked her up.

When I got back to the ward, Marcia stared at me nervously. "What did he say?"

I smiled. "It's OK. He is released on bail."

"What did he do?" Sure enough, Marcia asked me.

I looked at her and hesitated and didn't know what to say. Finally I said, "he will explain it to you in person."

It was complex and Erin had a special relationship with Ming. I was afraid it was going to irritate Marcia.

But Marcia understood my expression. She smiled bitterly. "I see. It's his lover, isn't it?"

"No, don't think about it." I comforted her immediately.

et

Marcia shook her head. She was helpless, but she said, "I believe it happened in the past. I believe be hasn't met any other women since we made up."
