My Substitute CEO Bride
Chapter 343
Everyone present immediately fell quiet as if they had been stunned into silence. The other player was also quiet. It seemed that the person he was talking to was indeed the boss of a company.
Yvonne took on a domineering and arrogant tone as she taunted, âWhy arenât you saying anything? Whereâs all that bravado from earlier? Youâre not only bad at the game, but youâre also a worthless piece of waste in real life. Whatâs the point of your existence?â
Just then, Lauren and Harrison pushed open the office door and strode in.
Yvonne glanced at them through the corner of her eye and felt a shiver run through her. Quickly standing up, she called out politely, âAunt Lauren, Uncle Harrisonâ¦â
Harrison looked at the employees, his expression cold as he asked, âWhat are you all doing here? Donât you have work to do?â
The employees nervously stood up.
âMiss Winnie is the one who called us over!â one of them explained meekly.
Winnie quickly explained what had happened, including how Yvonne had threatened her earlier.
Yvonne was infuriated, her face flushing with anger.
âYou just wait. Iâll have my cousin fire you.â
âYou all can go back to work!â
Forcing her anger down, Lauren said, âMiss Winnie, please step outside for a moment.â
Winnie took her laptop from her bag and removed a USB drive from the desktop computer before leaving the office.
Lauren then looked at Yvonne with a stern expression. âYvonne, Iâve already contacted your Uncle James. Heâll come to pick you up tomorrow.â
âWhat?â Yvonne shuddered before begging pitifully, âAunt Lauren, I was wrong. Please donât let Uncle James take me back, pleaseâ¦â
Harrison just replied coldly, âDo you know how big of a mess youâve caused? You nearly caused Hera and Nash to break up!â
Yvonneâs heart sank. It seemed that her uncle and aunt had already found out.
âAnd whereâs Hera? Youâd better explain everything to Hera right now!â Harrisonâs anger was barely contained now.
Yvonne swallowed hard as she said timidly, âHera said she wanted to go out for a walk. I⦠Iâll call her right away!â
Now that her uncle and aunt had already found out, Hera would soon find out as well. It would be
better for her to voluntarily admit her mistake instead of letting her aunt tell Hera about it.
She called Hera, but there was no answer. She called her three times in a row, and still, no one answered. Hera never ignored her calls, not even when she was in important meetings.
Yvonne started feeling anxious. Could Hera be contemplating something drastic like suicide? The thought sent chills down her spine as her face turned pale. She dialed Heraâs number on WhatsApp.
Crap! She still could not reach her.
Laurenâs eyes twitched as she asked coldly, âIs no one answering the phone?â
âHera dolled herself up all pretty this morning. But then she didnât say a word when we were on the way to the company. She⦠She mightâ¦â
Yvonne was extremely anxious, her voice trembling as tears welled up in her eyes.
Laurenâs and Harrisonâs faces turned pale as they immediately started making phone calls to various
contacts.
She was not with Skadi, nor was she with Bianca. Olivia had not seen her either.
Nobody had any idea where Hera could have gone despite them making a round of calls.
Yvonne cried out, âGet Nash, quick! Heâll be able to find her!â
Lauren felt immense distress. Yvonne had caused the entire thing. How was she going to explain to Nash if something were to happen to Hera?
Nevertheless, she dialed his number. There was nothing more important than her daughterâs safety.
âHello, Mom.â
âNash, Hera is missing!â
âW-What?â
