The Substitute Bride Triplets And The Impotent Billionaire

Tick Tock Tick Tock.

The sound of a clock was the only thing heard in a white dressing room.

Tinsley looked into the mirror motionlessly and a beautiful young lady in an expensive white wedding dress stared back at her.

The young lady's lips were quivering and tears began to pool in her eyes but not wanting to ruin her wedding make-up, Tinsley picked up a handkerchief and used it to clean the trace gently and quickly.

A pathetic smile hung on Tinsley's lips and so she reached out her hand but before she could touch the mirror…

"It's time for the bride to appear, Lillee are you done?" Someone asked which made Tinsley quickly dump the veil on her head and fixed it back.

The door was suddenly unlocked from outside which made Tinsley raise her head.

Her mom, Mrs. William's figure appeared to her through the mirror which made Tinsley's eyes reddened more.

"Tinsley," Mrs. William called. "Remember not to alert Conrad. Just do it for us and your elder sister, please." Mrs. William said, but there was no trace of sadness or remorse on her face which made the pathetic smile on Tinsley's eyes grow wider.

Yes, it was only about them and Lillee they cared about which was the reason why they didn't fail to make Tinsley stand as a substitute bride on Conrad and her elder sister, Lillee's wedding.

"Okay." Tinsley replied in a shaky voice. Her lips were quivering but everything was well-hidden by the veil.

Mrs. William continued to give out warnings like she had been doing since the very beginning, "Don't talk to anyone except it's extremely compulsory and you're Lillee until Lillee is back from the modeling show." Mrs. William continued to inform.

Not at all caring to ask about how Tinsley is coping up with being used as a substitute bride but Tinsley was already used and numb to it. Lillee was always the apple of her parents eyes while she was just nobody.

"As long as you do everything I say, you can successfully pass the role of Lillee." Mrs. William explained which made her nod.

Mr. William suddenly appeared in Tinsley's view. "Did you hear all your mom asked you to, you mustn't mess it up." her father warned coldly which made her nod silently.

"Please come out, Lillee William."

Tinsley stood up and walked to Mr. William who immediately held her hand with a fake smile on his face.

Tinsley's heart fell thinking about how cruel and selfish her family was when it comes to her

—-+---

Conrad's cold face was soon replaced with a wide smile when he saw the approaching figure that was being held by Mr. William. Conrad's happiness was vivid to everyone. After all, how wouldn't he? Conrad and Lillee had always been childhood sweethearts who swore to love each other for eternity.

Unfortunately, Lillee was invited to a modeling show out of the country and so she had pushed all the wedding aside to pursue the dream that would finally make her famous.

Tinsley and Lillee could easily pass for each other because they have the same body structures which they took from their mother, Mrs William, but that thought wasn't enough to assure Tinsley because Conrad always recognizes the love of his life.

And that made Tinsley's heart caught in her throat as she made way toward him.

'This was all wrong! Everything was all wrong!'she trembled with fear. But she had no choice than to follow her parents' order. You mustn't mess it up.

'Do you, Conrad Norton, take Lillee William to be your wedded wife….'

The wedding vows, everything that was being said continued to flash in her ears and like a machine, Tinsley continued to give answers like a robot.

"You may now kiss your bride." The pastor said which caused an eruption of claps from the massive crowd.

Tinsley's mouth immediately turned dry and her heartbeat immediately sped up.

Didn't mom and Dad say there'll be no kissing of the bride in order to not blow her cover? Tinsley thought in confusion.

Her heart began to pound as Conrad suddenly held her waist and pulled her closer toward him with a mischievous smirk playing on his face.

And before her hand could fly toward the veil to cover herself tightly, Conrad suddenly reached for the veil and threw it away.

At that minute, the party seems to undergo a massive change as everything stops. The noise and claps Immediately fell silent as the bride turns out to be Tinsley not Lillee.

The church was so silent that one could hear the sound of breathing but that wasn't what scared Tinsley; it was Conrad's smirk that immediately turned back into a cold and furious expression, Conrad looked like he was about to strangle Tinsley to death.

"Where's Lillee?" Conrad's booming voice resounded in her ears which made Tinsley's mouth dry.

Tinsley's body began to tremble and she looked towards her parents and casted a helpless gaze at them but no one looked at her side which made a fearful feeling RI wash over her. But wait, why does her parents frown as if they didn't know about this?

Conrad raised his hand slightly as if he wanted to slap Tinsley's face which made her hurriedly take steps back in fear. But in a few seconds his hand made way to ruffle his hair.

Conrad wouldn't dare slap her now considering his status as a famous actor and that the wedding show was being played live on all the famous tv stations and social media, "How dare you pretend to be Lillee. I said, "Where's Lillee?" Conrad asked her with a contemptuous gaze which made tears pooled into her eyes.

A burst of fury seems to make way into every of the party attendants and many hands pointed toward Tinsley with disgust.

Tinsley gulped and stuttered in fear while looking at her parents to say something, "I..."

What should Tinsley say? That Lillee chose the modeling gig that could give her the fame she wanted over Conrad and their wedding. And her parents repeatedly begged her to substitute for Lillee until she was back.

Conrad took menacing steps toward her with a disgusted expression, "I know you have always admired me but never know you'll stoop to this level." Conrad said harshly which made her shake her head.

She never wanted this, she never wanted to be his bride.

"Did you harm Lillee for your shameful actions?"

"No. I didn't. Lillee she…" How could she? She couldn't even breath at Lillee's vicinity talkless of touching her.

The silence that ensues was broken by the sound of a ringing tone.

A smile adorned Mrs. William's lips as she picked up the phone and placed it on speaker.

"Mom, my manager invited me to the company because she had something to say to me early in the morning. And on my way back, my car experienced a breakdown. I called Tinsley to inform you to send a car to pick me up, did she?" Lillee's voice that was filled with grievances filled everyone's ear.

Tinsley gasped in shock, disbelief and fear. "You…. That's a lie…"

But before she could finish her words, Mrs. William suddenly rushed toward Tinsley and a fierce slap immediately fell on Tinsley's face. "You disgraceful child, how dare you do this to Lillee? You're such a shameless Vixen."

Tinsley was left shocked by her mother's sudden slap and accusations.

"But mom, what did I see on social media? Why is Conrad getting wedded to Tinsley? Why?" Lillee immediately breaks down into tears. "Does Conrad not like me anymore? Does he love my sister now?" Lillee continued with a sob.

"If he does then I'll give both of them my blessing. Its just that, it would hurt, I've loved him all my life and I promised to love him to death." She said with sniffles.

Conrad felt as if something stabbed his heart as he heard the voice of his crying woman. He immediately took hold of the phone, "Baby, I'm sorry. It's not what you think. I'll call you back but let me deal with this shameless vixen first." Conrad said and cut off the call. He immediately beckoned his assistant. "Call the divorce offic..."

Before Conrad could finish his words Mr. William interrupted, "No need son-in-law, I've done so myself. The divorce officer is here."

"You're so shameless that you'll set your sister up. Do you think I'll ever be interested in someone like you? Look at yourself, how could you ever be compared to Lillee? Not with your looks or reputation." Conrad said sharply.

Everything that played in the wedding venue shocked Tinsley so much.

"Conrad, I didn't do it. Mom, Lillee never called me. Didn't she go out of the country because she accepted the modeling job that would bring her to the limelight . Did you forget that you and dad asked me to stand in for Lillee…" Tinsley cried out but before she could finish her words, another slap fell on her cheeks.

Mrs. William was furious, "You, how can you try to push the blame on someone else. You little vixen."

Tinsley shook her head in disbelief at her parents' accusation. Before she knew it, tears started dripping from her eyes.

"Take it and sign, right now." Conrad placed a pen on the divorce agreement with a contemptuous gaze.

Tinsley's hand shook and she felt all the energy in her body drained because she never expected it. She never expected to be betrayed by her parents and sister.

Tinsley knew that they never cared about her and Lillee had always been their child but she couldn't understand the reason they did this to her

Silently, she wrote her signature on the document with tears spilling from her eyes.

Look at her, such a vixen. She wanted to be Conrad Norton.

She's so disgusting and ugly, if I was her I would just commit suicide to rid the world of an ugly freak.

Can you imagine, such a disgusting whore, she'd throw herself at a man…

The comments entered her ears as she signed the agreement with her parents donning that disgusted expression that made them appear like an innocent bystander.

As soon as she signed the documents, Tinsley immediately ran out of the wedding hall with sadness unwilling to look at the contemptuous gazes but before she could make her way out, someone purposely stretched out her leg which made her trip and fall to the floor.

She could hear the crowds laughing while they pointed their phones at her. She could see her parents and Conrad leave the hall with an annoyed expression.

Tinsley tried to stand up but before she could, someone purposely stepped on her hand which made her cry out.

"Oops, bitch. That was a mistake."

Tinsley picked herself up and finally made her way outside but before she could escape, reporters crowded her from all angles which made her dizzy.

Tinsley William, is it true that you took on the identity of your model sister Lillee William in order to wed your brother-in-law, the famous actor Conrad Norton.

Tinsley William, did you find your actions disgusting?

Tell us what was your motive? And since when have you had an illegal crush on your brother in law?

Tinsley bent on the position she was in, she had tears in her eyes as she went through embarrassment from people she knew and she never knew. She went back to the dressing room to change out of the wedding dress and pick up her clothes.

'Look at her, she was that vixen who tried to marry her sister's husband.'

Ring Ring

Tinsley immediately picked up her call without checking to see who called her,

"Tinsley." Lillee's voice immediately filled her ears

"How dare you try to marry Conrad, you shameless slut. Husband snatcher. Take a look at you, who will want you. Mom and dad never want you, I never wanted you either, no one will." Lillee's vicious voice immediately drifted into her ear. It was far different from the good sister's voice that she pretended to be

"You were the one who ran away… You…" Tinsley broke into tears as she sat on a garden pavement.
