Substitute Bride: Utterly Pampered by Her Billionaire Husband-Chapter 1123: No, It’s Not Him!

Watching Cain Shaw walk closer step by step, Christina Shaw trembled all over; he is...

He is actually...

No wonder.

No wonder.

Cain Shaw reached the car door by the driver’s seat. He reached into his pocket with one hand and took out a pack of cigarettes. Then he slightly bent his tall body, cupping his hands against the wind as he lit the lighter. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

With a flick, a dark red flame leapt out, and he furrowed his sword-like brows as he lit a cigarette.

The way he lit the cigarette was as unruly and wild as ever, but at this moment, he was stripped of all the superficial glamour, and with a demeanor of chill and frost, he walked slowly into people’s view.

Christina Shaw’s pupils contracted as she watched this man outside the car window in shock and horror. Even though she had already guessed his unfathomable nature, she never expected him to be hiding so deep.

Is he not doing well now? In Starfall City, he stands alone at the top, having everything—power, status, money, beautiful women—as much as he wants. Yet, he still has such an identity, such a... dangerous identity that ties his head to his pant waist.

Cain Shaw stood tall and long-legged outside the car; with a furrowed brow, he took a drag from his cigarette. Then he braced one hand on the car roof, the other hand holding the smoldering flame as he bent down, a faint smile playing in his dark eyes as he looked at Christina Shaw, stripping away all the pretense, thin and cold, "Miss Shaw, the game hasn’t even started, and you’re already running? Too scared to play, huh?"

As he spoke, he chuckled lowly, his broad chest rising and falling, producing a magnetic resonance.

Christina Shaw trembled all over, retreating step by step, trying to get as far from this man as possible, "You are... you are..."

"Who I am is none of your concern; just have a good sleep. When you wake up, we’ll continue to play." Cain Shaw said with a faint smile.

At that moment, Christina Shaw felt a pain in the back of her neck, and a needle pierced her skin, her vision went black, and she fainted immediately.

"Boss, Christina Shaw wanted to call Old Man Shaw just now, but the signal was jammed, and the call didn’t connect."

"This Christina Shaw is hiding something from us; actually, Old Man Shaw and the Big Brother have already arrived."

Cain Shaw smoked while glancing at the tracking screen, seeing that Old Man Shaw and the Big Brother had entered their ambush circle and revealed themselves.

After lurking in Starfall City for so long, the mastermind behind the scenes had finally appeared.

No excessive expression showed on Cain Shaw’s handsome face; he instructed softly, "Take Christina Shaw down, erase all the memories from her mind that shouldn’t be there; I’ll wait here for them."

"Yes, Boss!"

"Also..." Cain Shaw didn’t continue, just took a drag of his cigarette.

His deputy, Charles Bishop, asked in surprise, "Boss, what’s wrong with you today, speaking so hesitantly, that’s not like you."

Cain Shaw had always been decisive, a natural leader, never hesitant.

Cain Shaw exhaled a puff of smoke, "After meeting the Big Brother and pulling out Starfall City’s entire line, this place will end, so file an application to the higher-ups for me."

"What application?"

"A marriage application; I want to get married."

What?

Everyone in the team was stirred up, "Boss, you want to get married? Who is our sister-in-law?"

"Yeah, Boss, we’ve never heard about a sister-in-law; who is she?"

Cain Shaw kicked them lightly, "Mind your own business."

With that, even Cain Shaw himself laughed.

Charles Bishop, who had been with Cain Shaw for many years, a comrade through life and death, was also surprised to hear Cain Shaw express a desire to marry. But since this place was filled with brothers who trusted him, Cain Shaw saying this here meant he had decided on this girl for life.

Every decision of Cain Shaw’s was well thought out; Charles Bishop observed the slight arc of Cain Shaw’s lips, with a trace of gentle fondness, a look never seen on Cain Shaw’s face before.

Charles Bishop nodded, "Alright, I’ll help submit your marriage application. Hopefully, this order ends smoothly, and we can all celebrate your wedding together."

The Blood Eye Squad disappeared in a flash, moving as if they were never there.

Cain Shaw stood lazily leaning against the car, casually finishing a whole cigarette. The marriage thing wasn’t even close to a solid plan yet, not knowing if she’d agree or not.

But, whether she’d agree was her business; wanting to marry her was his business.

In the past three years, he had tried countless times to forget her, to let her go, but he couldn’t.

The existence of Yuric Thatcher also made him understand deeply that he couldn’t bear to see her belong to another man unless he closed his eyes and died.

He wanted her!

This thought grew wildly in his heart like a vine, becoming harder and harder to restrain. Even though his identity was dangerous, when it came to happiness, he was willing to give everything, devote his entire life to her.

Cain Shaw flicked the cigarette butt onto the ground and crushed it with his shoe, striding into the hotel.

...

In the hotel room.

Dianna Hollis had been under the cold shower for a long time. At this moment, a melodious ringtone sounded; a call was coming in.

She turned off the shower and went out; it was a call from her mother, Jodie Young.

Dianna Hollis was very tired now, not in the mood to deal with her mother, so she directly hung up the call.

However, despite her mother’s strong personality, she truly loved her; hence, Dianna opened her message box intending to send a text to Jodie.

At that moment, her finger suddenly paused because she saw that passionate video lying quietly in her inbox again.

Christina Shaw had sent it to her days ago, but she hadn’t opened it.

Why hadn’t she opened it?

Probably because she still had fantasies about Cain Shaw.

However, after hearing Christina’s screams at the hot spring earlier, she completely lost her illusions about Cain Shaw.

Dianna opened the video; she was going to utterly erase Cain Shaw from her life.

The video played, showing two figures entangled hotly on the large bed.

Soon, Dianna felt a shiver as if she discovered something suddenly.

She seriously watched the entire video, then watched it again.

No.

This person is not Cain Shaw!

Though the man had a similar physique to Cain Shaw, coupled with the dark environment making it hard to see clearly, Dianna was certain, one hundred percent certain, this person was not Cain Shaw!

What was going on?

Holding her phone, Dianna felt her rationality suddenly return, a thousand guesses flashing through her mind.

Then came the sound of steady footsteps outside, and the bathroom door was pushed open; someone came in.

Dianna turned around and saw Cain Shaw standing at the doorway.

Cain Shaw had returned!

Cain Shaw handed her the antidote in his hand, "Here’s the antidote; take it quickly."

Dianna didn’t reach out to take it. Instead, she slowly pushed the passionate video on her phone in front of Cain Shaw, "Cain Shaw, explain to me, what is this all about?"
