My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 268

Despite seeing Felicity standing very close to Nash, Hera still had a happy and excited smile on her face. She immediately pulled Yvonne aside for a chat.

She believed that Nash was not the type to be easily swayed by other women.

However, seeing the man she loved getting close to another woman did stir a hint of jealousy in her heart.

“What is it? Do I know you that well?”

Nash gave Felicity an annoyed look.

“Ah... Never mind... Never mind... Hehehe!”

Felicity realized that Nash did not want his family to know, so she awkwardly smiled and stayed silent.

She had boasted many times in front of her grandfather, but none of it was ever true.

This time, she could genuinely brag in front of him.

Liam glanced at the time and said with a smile, “Laurie, James, it’s getting late. I need to return to the company to handle some matters. Let’s continue this another day!”

Lauren nodded and responded, “Alright, Liam. Be safe on the road!”

Not long after Liam left, Felicity felt a bit out of place. She soon bid her farewells and departed.

James, on the other hand, began discussing Nash with Harrison.

“Harri, who exactly is this Nash?”

The more James saw of Nash, the more enigmatic he appeared.

Especially when Mr. Deacon from the Special Security Institution's Ninth Division shook Nash’s hand.

He had noticed a hint of wariness in Judas’ eyes.

What kind of person could make the head of the Ninth Division cautious?

“Oh, him... He’s the son-in-law I picked up!”

Harrison had drunk quite a bit with James that evening, and the relationship between the two had greatly improved.

Seeing James address him more warmly made Harrison quite pleased.

Moreover, he wanted to leverage James’ influence in the Mare family to encourage Lauren to visit her elderly parents.

So, he told James about Nash owning the Skyes’ platinum membership card and how he had purchased the 7nm photolithography machine.

After hearing Harrison’s words, James was genuinely surprised.

“Thank you…”

The man in the suit, thinking it was someone from a neighboring bush, unconsciously thanked him.

However, a second later, he realized something was amiss.

There was no one around when he arrived, and he would have definitely noticed if someone had approached while he was relieving himself.

“Who are you?”

The man in black quickly finished up, pulled up his pants, and stood.

In front of him was a man in pajamas.

It was Nash.

Coincidentally, Nash had gotten up in the middle of the night to use the restroom and happened to notice someone approaching the villa.

He followed the man, saw him having a stomach upset, and realized he had no tissue.

Nash immediately remembered the person who had tried to steal Yvonne’s crystal ball.

“Failed the first time and you’re trying again?”
