Mr. CEO's Substitute Bride-Chapter 1063 - 1059: Is Mi’er Here With You
In T City, his close-knit brothers were all highly capable, each one a standout. Together, the four of them effectively controlled half the city’s influence.
"It’s not troublesome," Nicholas Croft said indifferently, then he hung up Henry Hargrave’s phone call, followed by dialing Beatrice Hargrave’s number. However, the girl had already fallen asleep in a drunken state.
In Titus Zane’s guest room, Beatrice Hargrave was asleep on the large bed in the suite, wrapped in Titus Zane’s silk robe, her sleeping face showing a gentle pink hue.
Nicholas Croft glanced at the phone that had automatically hung up, his lowered gaze seemed to be contemplating something. After a moment, he located another number and dialed it, "Help me find out which hotel Titus Zane is staying at, and ask if any girls went looking for her tonight."
After giving instructions, Nicholas Croft placed the phone on the headboard, casually grabbing a cigarette box to extract one and light it.
In the swirling smoke, Nicholas Croft’s eyes narrowed slightly, his brow furrowed with a hint of gloom.
Within less than ten minutes, the phone on the headboard rang, causing Nicholas Croft to exhale smoke as he picked up the call. On the other side, something was said, and Nicholas Croft inhaled the cigarette, nonchalantly agreeing as he exhaled the smoke, "Hmm... got it."
After ending the call, he phoned Henry Hargrave again, "Old Hargrave, you don’t need to worry, Beatrice is currently staying at a hotel with a friend... Yes, a female friend... Which one? My second brother’s wife,"
At the Hargrave family’s villa, Henry Hargrave found it strange to hear that his daughter was staying with Nathan Moore’s wife. However, he decided not to inquire too deeply, exchanged pleasantries with Nicholas Croft, and then hung up. As he stepped on the stairs, he wondered whether Beatrice’s good relations with Nathan Moore’s wife might help him in some way in the future...
Nicholas Croft continued smoking for a while. If it weren’t so late, he would have gone to the hotel to bring Beatrice Hargrave back.
Perhaps it was because of his guilt towards Sophie Foster that he couldn’t bear to see Beatrice Hargrave suffer in any way.
...
The next morning, Nicholas Croft hurriedly went to the hotel where Titus Zane was staying, persistently ringing the doorbell at the guest room door.
Having drunk too much last night, Titus Zane gave the suite’s large bed to Beatrice Hargrave and slept alone on the small bed outside. Hearing the continuous ringing of the doorbell, she groggily got up, grabbed a shawl, and went over to open the door. The moment a man in a suit appeared at her room door, Titus Zane paused, her sleepiness instantly fading.
"You..."
Nicholas Croft nodded politely, even though he already knew Beatrice Hargrave was staying there, he courteously asked, "Is Beatrice here with you?"
"Oh, yes," Titus Zane was curious about how Nicholas Croft knew she was staying at this hotel. Although anxious, Nicholas Croft had to ask gentlemanly, "May I come in?"
Nothing else mattered except that this woman was his brother’s wife.
"Come in." Titus Zane tightened her shawl, turned, and headed towards the suite, arriving at the large bed where she gently pushed Beatrice Hargrave, softly saying, "Little Beatrice, wake up..."
The woman’s resting room was a private space, but Nicholas Croft did not shy away from following in. Watching the sleeping girl on the bed, his eyes naturally softened.
He said to Titus Zane, "You go ahead, I’ll wake her up." 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
Titus Zane glanced at Nicholas Croft indifferently, while his eyes remained on Beatrice Hargrave’s face, his brow softening, his lips involuntarily curving upward.
These two always used to stick together shamelessly, and Titus Zane couldn’t understand how Nicholas Croft could be such a refined man, but ready to respond to Sophie Foster’s advances anytime, anywhere, regardless of people around them. Retracting her gaze, Titus Zane turned and walked out, leaving the suite to the two.
