My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 1008

Barton snorted coldly and then left with his entourage. Renee muttered, "Good intentions are often unappreciated. What a bunch of ingrates!"

She had unwavering faith in Nash's medical skills, especially after witnessing him cure a patient who was clinically brain-dead not long ago.

Eric walked over to Nash, who looked a bit pale. He asked, "Are you okay?"

Nash smiled and nodded. "I'm good."

Eric relaxed a bit. "We haven't finished our drinks yet. Let's go back and continue."

Skadi complained, “Yoyo hasn't even had her cake yet. They ruined everything!" It was her first time celebrating Yoyo's birthday, and she had not expected such an event to occur.

Hera comforted her softly, "Aren't we going to go back and drink now? Let's buy another cake and continue celebrating Yoyo's birthday when we get back!"

An hour later, everyone returned to Villa 14 to continue celebrating Yoyo’s birthday. Jezebel prepared some nutritious snacks and fruit platters as well as some appetizers for those who wanted to drink.

At around ten o'clock, Yoyo blew out the candles and made a wish. Thus came the end of her fifth birthday celebration.

After Eric had drunk himself into unconsciousness, Nash followed the drowsy Hera back to their villa. As soon as they arrived home, however, Nash's phone rang.

Hera gently called out to Nash, "Nash, wake up!"

Lying on the couch, Nash looked at Hera with bleary eyes and mumbled, "My wife, you're so beautiful!"

Hera smiled sweetly and said, "Your phone is ringing. You should answer it.”

Seeing Nash still unmoved, Hera grabbed his phone and showed him the caller ID. It was Stellar.

"Nash, Stellar’s calling!"

Hera did not dare to answer the call without Nash's permission. Nash engaged his true energy, and a wisp of white mist emanated from the top of his head. The drunkenness on his face dissipated.

With that, Stellar ended the call.

Nash plopped onto the couch heavily. He tried calling his father, but his phone was turned off. What happened to his father in Capiton? Was his father distancing himself from him because of the Kleins? What was his father thinking when he warned him about Francis?

Nash dialed Tristan's number. He was the only person he knew in Capiton’s political circle. The call was quickly answered, and Tristan asked with a smile, "Mr. Calcraft, why are you calling me so late?"

Without beating about the bush, Nash asked directly, "Has something happened in Capiton?"

Tristan was surprised. "What happened?"

After a brief pause, Nash asked, "How are the relations between the four Wardens and Francis Dunn?"

"They're fine. I'm not exactly sure about the specifics of their relationships with one another. I don't have the authority to meddle in their affairs."

"Alright, go get some rest.”
