My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 563

Skadi placed the duck meat that was a specialty of Xanthalos on the table. "This is a specialty from Xanthalos, handmade by my best friend!"

Seeing Skadi looking upset, Hera could not help but ask, "What happened? Did someone try to scam you with the car accident?"

Skadi plopped down on the sofa frustratedly. "Yes, that old man tried to extort 80,000 dollars from me!"

Hera could not help but find it amusing. "You got scammed? Aren’t you the kind of person who would’ve sent him straight to the Inspection Office?"

Skadi's temper was not to be trifled with. There were only a few of the wealthy second-generation elites in Jonford who dared to provoke her.

"I was speeding, and Royal Bay is filled with surveillance cameras. Sending him to the Inspection Office would only backfire on me, "Skadi replied helplessly.

Helena sipped her medicine and asked, "Don't you have a dashcam?"

Skadi only noticed Helena's presence then, and her expression turned cold. However, she noticed a signal from Hera and wondered what she meant. Had they reconciled?

Skadi was momentarily stunned. "You... You two?"

Hera smiled and said, "You've seen it yourself. We've made up."

Skadi rolled her eyes and then smiled. "Congratulations, then."

Hera took two bottles of drinks from the refrigerator, walked toward the sofa, and handed one to Skadi as she asked, "You still haven't answered Helena's question. Don't you have a dashcam in your car?"

Having a dashcam but still being scammed for 80,000! If this happened to anyone else, she might believe it, but the fact that it happened to Skadi was truly outrageous.

Skadi unscrewed the bottle cap and took two sips of her drink before replying, "That old man just walked straight toward the road without looking. He didn’t even glance to see if there were any cars. I didn't expect him to cross the road without checking at all.

"I didn’t manage to break in time. It's like he was intentionally risking his life for money!"

Hera could not help but laugh. "Well, that's unfortunate, but you did speed in a residential area.”

Skadi took off her shoes and crossed her legs. "You should be more careful when driving next time. That old man looks like a repeat offender!" she said with a solemn expression.
