My Substitute CEO Bride
Chapter 264
They were just having a casual dinner, so Nash only reserved a Diamond Private Room.
Even so, the Diamond Private Room at the Chateau Hotel was about 200 square meters.
Holding her Winnie the Pooh, Yvonne exclaimed again, âSuch a big room, such a big table! Iâve never dined in such a luxurious hotel before!â
She then turned to Hera, asking curiously, âHera, do you often dine here?â
Hera replied with a smile, âIâve only dined here once. This time, itâs all thanks to you that I get to eat here again.â
âHehe⦠Hera, you sure have a way with words!â
Yvonne giggled amusedly.
Soon after, the waiter started serving dishes.
In order to avoid waste, Nash instructed Olivia to prepare portions for only eight people.
There were 18 signature dishes plus three soups.
An ordinary banquet would look pretty much like this.
However, these dishes were beyond what one would expect at a regular banquet.
In Royal Bay Villa, Maria sat on a bench at the entrance of the villa, eating snacks while video-calling
her son.
Adam was typing away when his pupils suddenly shrank.
Seeing the drastic change in her sonâs expression, Maria curiously asked, âWhatâs wrong, son?â
Adam signaled her to be quiet.
Maria immediately sensed something and slowly turned to look into the villaâs living room.
She saw a man in a suit rummaging through Yvonneâs luggage.
In a low voice, Adam said, âMom⦠d-donât make a sound. Get out of the villa firstâ¦â
Seemingly not hearing him, Maria shouted, âThief! Catch the thief!â
Darn it!
Adamâs face turned pale, and he quickly called Hera using the landline.
A sudden braking sound echoed from outside the villa.
Xeno, accompanied by a muscular man, rushed toward the scene.
Having met Xeno before, the frantic Maria yelled, âQuick⦠Catch the thief!â
Xeno immediately pulled out a gun with a silencer and aimed it at the suited man.
Three consecutive shots, but they all missed.
The muscular man sneered. âWhat awful shooting skills.â
He then walked briskly toward the villa, saying menacingly, âLittle brat, you dare to steal from Mr. Nash?â
âLogan⦠come back!â
Xeno shouted loudly.
He started using guns 20 years ago and had been practicing shooting in recent years.
He could hit any target within a hundred meters with every shot.
However, just now, he actually missed all his shots.
It was as if an invisible barrier around the man had altered the bulletâs trajectory.
Logan reached out to grab the man in the suit.
âFound itâ¦â
The suited man picked up a fist-sized box.
At the same time, Loganâs hand was on his neck.
The man in the suit suddenly stood up, and a terrifying force sent Logan flying.
Seeing this, Xeno raised his hand and fired three more shots.
With a swift motion, the suited man caught all three bullets in his hand.
Catching bullets with bare hands?
Xeno gasped in disbelief.
