She Flash-Married To His Rival novel Chapter 79

Chapter 79
Moira’s face remained blushed. She didn’t expect her father to be so easily “fooled, nor did the expect Barclay, who always appeared serious and aloof, to tell so many lies.
She was a bit reluctant to leave home, but after Aikon and Barclay had their candid conversation, Moira felt embarrassed and just wilted to leave as soon as possible.
Fortunately, the embarrassing situation ended quickly, Moira finally breathed a sigh of relief when she sat inside the car.
Barclay also got into the car, and as Moira tumed her head, she met his deep eyes. “You ser
seem eager to move into my house?” Barclay said.
Moira said embarrassedly, “I just didn’t expect you to be so good at lying.”
Even her dad was fooled by him,
“Hit the road,” Barclay instructed the driver.
And the car started moving
He lowered his eyes slightly, rolling up his sleeves, and asked, “How did you know I was lying?”
Moira’s heart skipped a beat. Barclay suddenly looked up, his gaze deep and intense as he said, “I was speaking from the bottom of my heart.”
Barclay’s eyes were deep and stern, and Moira felt like she couldn’t tak
take her eyes of
eyes off him.
Moira felt her mind go blank. She swallowed hard and found it difficult to speak.
The two were so close, and the familiar woody scent almost enveloped her.
Moira was nervous under his gaze.
After nearly half a minute, she managed to regain her composure.
Avoiding his gaze, she forced a smile and said, “How could that be?”
“Why isn’t it possible?” Barclay asked, remaining composure.
Moira felt so awkward that she didn’t know how to reply.
Moira glanced at him, suddenly regaining her rationality, and said, “You’ve only known me for a short time. How can you love me?”
Then she felt like she had discovered Barclay’s secret and said, “Are you using me as a substitute?”
Justthinking about it was thrilling, Moira thought.
Barclay was silent.
Then he lowered his gaze and said, “You’re overthinking.”
Seeing him suddenly return to his dignified and aloof demeanor, Moira became even more convinced that she guessed right.
Now she didn’t feel embarrassed at all. She turned slightly, propping her chin and looking at the cool-looking man beside her. “How am I overthinking?” she retorted.
Moira even suspected that Barclay’s quick agreement to marry her might have something to do with his “unrequited love.”
She touched her face and said, “Mr. Covington, do I look like her in the eyes or nose? Or maybe, do I resemble her at all?”

It was her first time being a “substitute,” and Moira was a little excited.
Barclay’s Adam’s apple bobbed slightly at her excitement.
He reached out and pressed her back down, saying, “Please sit up straight.”
Moira could only straighten up, feeling intrigued by the idea of being a substitute.
She tried to ask again, but suddenly a large hand covered her eyes. Everything went dark. “Take a nap,” Barclay said.
Moira was startled and said, “I’m not sleepy.”
The warmth of his palm made her face gradually heat up, and she pulled his hand down.
When the light returned to her eyes, she met his deep gaze. “But I’m,” Barclay said.
He didn’t sleep well last night.
