My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 127

She had to persuade her grandfather to abandon the idea of marrying her off to the Hills.

Herman looked puzzled and asked, “What do you mean?”

Without considering her parents’ worry for her, Hera immediately recounted how she and Skadi were kidnapped by Crow.

Upon hearing this, Herman expressed disbelief. “Are you saying they wanted to kill Skadi? That... That seems improbable, right?”

Hera asserted confidently, “It’s absolutely true. Hunter himself admitted it. If Nash hadn’t arrived in time to save us, the consequences would have been unimaginable!”

“Grandpa…”

Helena initially wanted to interject.

However, she remembered that Crow from Causeway Bay had indeed died.

Nash had saved Hera and Skadi.

Therefore, Nash must have been the one who killed Crow.

Helena looked at Nash, who was looking back at her calmly.

“What is it?”

Herman heard Helena calling him and turned his head to ask.

Helena shook her head. “N-Nothing…”

Nash killed Crow.

That meant he had offended Howard of the Green Bamboo Association.

The Lanes surely would not let Nash off the hook.

Thinking of this, a faint smile appeared on Helena’s face.

“Since the Hills aren’t suitable, then reject their betrothal gifts!”

Herman said calmly, “However, you must be careful since Baroque is still involved in small collaborations with the Hills. If this matter becomes a hindrance to Drake Group’s orders, the loss will outweigh the gain!”

Hearing Herman’s words, a happy smile appeared on the faces of Hera’s family.

After the dinner ended, everyone went back to their own rooms.

Hearing this, Haspard slammed his fist onto the desk.

In this case, they truly did not have the guts to lay a finger on the Lewises.

Geoffrey sighed. “We should ask Hunt to give up on Hera, or it'll eventually backfire!”

Although he also wanted to avenge his son, the Lewises’ backing was too strong, and he was powerless.

Haspard closed his eyes and thought for a while. He then slowly opened his mouth. “I heard from Hunt that Hera has a boyfriend now. Who is that man?”

Geoffrey thought for a while and said, “I heard that he seems to be from the mountains…”

Haspard sneered. “I refuse to believe that my grandson can’t compete with a hillbilly!”

The Hills, after all, had a net worth of 1.5 billion.

Hunter was born with a golden spoon in his mouth. How could he be inferior to a wild boy from the mountains?

Geoffrey discerned his father’s intention from his words and anxiously said, “Dad, don’t be stubborn anymore. There are many good women in the world. We can easily arrange a marriage for Hunt!”
