My Substitute CEO Bride
Chapter 305
Hera grew sadder with each passing thought and drove away from Royal Bay.
âHera⦠where are we staying tonight?â
âI have another apartment,â Hera replied, wiping her tears as she turned the steering wheel.
Inside the villa at Royal Bay, Melody looked at the much younger man before her and asked, â Arenât you⦠going to go after her?â
Even though the young lady of the house was upset, she did not regret her earlier confrontation with her cousin.
If the little girl dared to be rude again, she would still not hesitate to take action.
Finn chuckled. âItâs normal for young couples to argue from time to time. What do they call it ⦠A loversâ quarrel?â
Nash, feeling frustrated, grabbed a can of beer from the fridge to drink.
âWhat about the map? You said earlier that your grandmother burned the map. Were you lying to trick Saul?â
Nash stopped thinking about other things and got back to business.
âThe
map was indeed burned. But my grandmother drew a new map on my back using a special ink from the Youngs. Itâs invisible to the naked eye. She didnât tell me how to make it appear, though.â
âStand up and turn aroundâ¦â Nash instructed nonchalantly.
Invisible to the naked eye? In that case, he would use his Third Eye.
Blushing, Melody asked, âDo I⦠remove my clothes?â
Finn subtly adjusted his position, eagerly anticipating.
âNo need⦠I have the Third Eye!â
Nashâs statement shattered Finnâs fantasy.
âCan the Third Eye see through things?â Melody cautiously asked.
âI wonât misuse it,â Nash replied casually.
âMr. Nash⦠how did you cultivate the Third Eye? Can you teach me? Iâd brave any danger without hesitation in the future!â Finn smirked mischievously.
âWhen you have such thoughts, youâve already disqualified yourself from learning the Third Eye,â Nash said dismissively.,
After hesitating for a moment, Melody bit her lip, stood up, and turned to face away from Nash.
Though she was 28, no man had ever seen her naked.
Now being observed by a man she had just met, she felt somewhat uneasy.
Nash, now fully focused, had a golden light flash deep within his eyes.
His gaze pierced through Melodyâs clothes, revealing her flawless, alabaster skin.
It seemed the Third Eye could not see it either.
Nash slightly frowned and said, âThatâs all.â
Turning around, a blushing Melody asked, âHow was it? Did you see it?â
Nash shook his head. âEven the Third Eye canât see it⦠Iâll research it further later.â
Finn glanced at Nash with envy, wishing he, too, had such a skill.
At Rex District, after Hera took a shower, she sat on the bed glumly and began texting Skadi about her frustrations.
âHera⦠Look⦠Nash is checking out that woman!â
Yvonne showed her phone to Hera.
As she was bored during the day, she accidentally connected her phone to the villaâs surveillance system.
When she checked the feed, she caught Melody standing and turning around. Then, Nash intently observed her.
The tears Hera had just stopped now flowed anew. She did not even reply to Skadiâs message and just sobbed into her pillow.
A misunderstanding?
Could this still be a misunderstanding?
Seeing that there was no reply, Skadi directly called Hera.
After returning from Imperial Summer Manor, she had ranted to her grandfather about the Smiling Grim Reaperâs approach and even decided to expose the Smiling Grim Reaper online. However, her grandfather revealed a shocking secret.
The Smiling Grim Reaper was Nash.
Skadi intended to tell Hera about this. She could not let her best friend be with such a cold-
blooded man.
âBoo-hoo⦠Skadi⦠Iâm so upset⦠Nash doesnât love me anymoreâ¦â
