Mr. CEO's Substitute Bride-Chapter 1033 - 1029: Mom’s

"Beatrice, don’t be naughty, quickly tell us!" Henry Hargrave disapprovingly frowned. Beatrice Hargrave raised an eyebrow. Since the owner of the villa had returned, she didn’t want to hog someone’s living room anymore, and said with a pout, "Uncle Nicholas said I was at the age like his niece, so he took me to the hospital."

Seeing the three visibly breathe a sigh of relief, Beatrice Hargrave slipped on her slippers, "If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back to my room to rest."

"Go, from tomorrow you’ll start training with professional teachers," Henry Hargrave instructed blandly, "Get up early, don’t be late."

After Beatrice Hargrave stepped on the staircase, Hannah Hargrave also sat down on the sofa, looking ahead in a daze and said, "Dad, what do you think Nicholas really thinks?"

"You’ve been with him for so many years, and you ask me?" Henry Hargrave scolded discontentedly. Hannah Hargrave suddenly turned her head, full of resentment, "How would I know? He doesn’t refuse me getting close but won’t be too intimate with me either. We’ve known each other for so many years, we haven’t even held hands!"

Passing by the stairway’s turn, listening to Hannah Hargrave complaining downstairs, Beatrice Hargrave couldn’t help but curl her lips, huh, consider yourself having some self-control!

"It’s because your tactics are lacking!" Before Henry Hargrave could say anything, Josephine Hawthorne looked at her daughter from across her husband. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"Mom, you make it sound easy, Nicholas has always been a gentleman!"

"Hmph, a gentleman? There’s no cat in the world that doesn’t eat fish!" Josephine Hawthorne let out a cold snort, then turned to her husband, saying sarcastically, "All that self-restraint and discipline is just a show for others. When no one’s around, even if a sow stripped in front of them, they’d still go for it!"

"Just say what you mean, why look at me?" Henry Hargrave rebuked in displeasure, feeling a bit guilty inside. Josephine Hawthorne sneered coldly, "Don’t you understand what I mean? I’m telling Hannah that you men are all the same. All that talk of being faithful is nonsense. With a little trickery, any woman can have you unbuckling your belt in no time!"

"You’re getting more and more outrageous!" Henry Hargrave stood up, flicked his sleeve, and walked toward the staircase.

Watching her husband’s figure, Josephine Hawthorne sneered again, then waved at her daughter, "Hannah, come over here, mom has an idea for you to find out if Nicholas has feelings for you."

Hannah Hargrave moved beside her mother, and after the two whispered for a while, Hannah asked with half-belief, "Mom, will this really work?"

"Why wouldn’t it? Any man wouldn’t be able to resist."

The next day, news of Beatrice Hargrave being carried to the hospital by Nicholas Croft occupied most of the entertainment section, with eye-catching headlines,

Once the news broke, netizens finally understood why Beatrice Hargrave acted so high-handed during the talent show, with luxury cars picking her up and an assistant in tow. Turns out, she’s the second daughter of Phoenix Entertainment.

Having a famous producer sister and this prospective brother-in-law, entertainment giant Nicholas Croft, she’ll surely become a big star soon...

While netizens buzzed with discussion, Hannah Hargrave was browsing the news and those accompanying photos.

Though the reporters said Nicholas Croft was showing affection for his girlfriend’s family, seeing the photos of him leisurely carrying Beatrice made her inevitably jealous.

Thinking about it, she picked up her phone and called Beatrice Hargrave, who was "recuperating" at home, leaning on the bed and mockingly smiling as she answered, "Calling me for something? Missing me, perhaps,"

"Don’t babble, Beatrice Hargrave, I’m warning you, stay away from Nicholas in the future!" With that sentence, Hannah Hargrave hung up the call.

Looking at the cut-off call, Beatrice Hargrave disdainfully sneered, "Who do you think you are? You think I should back away just because you asked? Dream on!"
