Chapter 101
My Substitute CEO Bride
Chapter 101
Hunter received a photo of a pair of long legs with all the hair removed from the planning department. They had made the legs look fairer and smoother.
Hunter zoomed in on the photo. He even stuck his face close to the screen of his phone with a look of enjoyment. Then, he pursed his lips and made wild kissy faces.
In the living room downstairs, Gaspardâs expression collapsed when he learned that Crow had died.
What annoyed him even more what that Skadi had returned to her family safe and sound.
Geoffrey brewed a cup of coffee for his father and asked, âDad, what is it?â
Gaspard gritted his teeth and said, âCrow is dead, but Skadi is still fine!â
Hearing that, Geoffrey was surprised. âIs the Green Bamboo Association so unreliable? Crow didnât expose us, did he?â
Gaspard shook his head. âCrow is a tight-lipped man. He wouldnât sell us out despite getting the money.â
It was just a pity that his 15 million expenditure had been in vain.
âThey must be incredibly audacious to kill Crow, whoâs part of the Green Bamboo Association,â Geoffrey said coldly.
Gaspardâs eyes narrowed. âHoward Lane is the man managing the Green Bamboo Association in Jonford. Letâs see what heâll
do next.
âAs for Hunt, settle the dowry as it should be. I donât believe Herman will dare go back on his promise!â
Nash and Hera were having lunch at the companyâs canteen.
They had gone to the Northjon branch together that afternoon. Nash received a call from Stellar the moment he arrived.
âNash, the warden suddenly lost all feeling in his limbs. Hurry over and take a look at him!â
âAt the old place?â
âYes, weâre still at the Zellsâ villa.â
âIâm coming over now.â
After ending the call, Nash looked at Hera, but before he could even say anything, Hera smiled and said, âIf thereâs something you need to take care of, go. But you have to come back and pick me up after work tonight.â
Nash smiled and nodded. âOkay. Iâll come to you as soon as Iâm done.â
With that, he drove Heraâs Maserati to the Zellsâ residence.

Hera walked into the company, and as she did, she saw Hunterâs car in the parking lot outside the office building.
Her brows furrowed slightly as she immediately felt reluctant to go upstairs. However, considering that she still had a few
emails that she needed to send out as soon as possible, she steeled herself in the end and went in.
In the presidentâs office, the secretary was serving a cup of coffee to Hunter.
Hunter then turned his phone over to the secretary and said, âArenât your presidentâs legs beautiful?â
The secretary smiled politely. âThe president is fair and beautiful. She also has really long legs. Of course, sheâs pretty.â
Hera stepped into the office and walked straight toward Hunter.
Seeing that Hera had arrived, a smile broke out on Hunterâs face. He thought Hera had agreed to date him when he recalled her enthusiastic reply from last night.
âFinally, my waiting paid off. Come, Hera. Give me a hug.â
Hunter stood up and opened his arms to greet her.
Hera hurriedly dodged him and scoffed. âCan you stop disgusting me?â
Hunter was taken aback for a moment. When he saw Heraâs secretary still in the office, he let out a relieved smile and waved to her, saying, âGo out first. I have something to discuss with your president.â
The secretary nodded. She then left the office and closed the office door behind her.
âHera, no oneâs here now. Come and give me a hug.â Hunter tried to hug Hera again, but she had a look of disgust on her face. âGo away! How nasty can you get?â
âHera, you⦠you showed me your legs last night. Doesnât that indirectly mean that youâve accepted my pursuit? Why are you still so cold to me now?â
