My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 716

The unkempt old man got to his feet, a piece of bread dangling from his mouth as he adjusted his pants. He showed absolutely no concern for how he presented himself as he said, “Forget it. I’m not used to a place like this!”

After fastening his belt, he chewed on his bread as he headed out. He said in a muffled voice, “You should spend the next couple of days keeping an eye on the people around Young Calcraft. I suspect they’ll direct their attacks onto them…”

The unkempt old man’s figure slowly turned hazy after he finished speaking.

The two bodyguards standing by the door once again turned flabbergasted.

Divus grabbed some Kleenex and wiped the milk droplets on the corners of his mouth.

A sharp glint appeared in his narrow eyes.

…

When Hera finished breakfast, she instructed Maria to take good care of Melody before she headed to work.

However, she could not start the second-hand car they had at home.

“What a terrible car!”

Hera’s good mood instantly vanished.

Her parents were probably already at the office by now, and it would not be feasible to have them come pick her up.

She might as well hail a taxi.

After slamming the door shut, she grabbed her purse and strode toward the entrance.

Once she left Royal Bay’s premises, she saw a brand new Aston Martin One-77 parked by the entrance.

There were only 77 Aston Martin One-77s in the entire world, and only five could be found in Drakonia. The selling price for one was around 47 million dollars.

Plenty of people crowded around the car to admire it and take pictures.

Hera walked to the curb to hail a taxi.

The door abruptly opened, and a burly man wearing a leather jacket got out of the car.

A panicked look instantly appeared on Hera’s face as she took two hesitant steps backward.

The burly man stopped walking, leaving about a half-foot between himself and Hera. Smiling, he said, “Don’t be afraid, Miss. I just wanted to ask for directions!”

Hera asked hesitantly, “Why would you need to ask for directions when you have such a luxurious car?”

Only members of the most elite families in Capiton could afford cars like these.

They would usually have their personal assistants map out their route for them if they ever needed to go somewhere.

They had conducted a brief investigation on Nash and learned his wife was named Hera Lewis.

Since the woman was young, she might be acquainted with Hera!

Hera said calmly, “I’ve never heard of that name…”

“Hera…”

Then, a Rolls-Royce pulled to a stop beside them.

Helena, who was in the front passenger seat, asked, “Where are you headed?”

The burly man stared at Hera, and his eyes narrowed as he asked, “Are you Hera Lewis?”

Hera hurried over to Kai’s Rolls-Royce. There, she got the courage to stare at the burly man as she asked, “Why are you looking for Nash?”

The man was stunned.

Had she assumed he was an enemy?

How could he seem like a villain when he had spoken to her so gently?
