My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 1353

Chapter 1353 

What the heck? This woman was Hera Lewis? 

Lying on the ground and pretending to be dead, Maurice felt his heart 

1- 

pounding wildly. He was a local of Jonford, but because of his poor background, he was unable to mingle within the wealthy circle. 

However, he had heard of Hera’s name from some drinking buddies during their dinners. She was Jonford’s notorious big shot, also known as the Chip Queen. 

Even Xeno Hun of the Dragon Tiger Gate feared her to some extent. He had only wanted to leverage Hans’ influence to get a woman so that he could bid farewell to his singlehood. How did he end up 

attracting Hera’s attention? 

“The Tattle family of Brume?” Hera’s brows furrowed slightly before she turned to Eva behind her. “Look up this family.” 

Eva took out her phone and asked her social group. It was not long before she received information about them. 

“Ms. Lewis, the Tattle family is one of the four major martial arts families of Brume,” Eva explained calmly. 

Hera nodded, her expression curious. Just yesterday, both the Zink and Yeom families from Brume met with Southern Heaven 

Pharmaceuticals for cooperation talks. 

The two families also seemed to be martial arts families. The Zink 

family was even the number one martial arts family in Brume, with a history of over four hundred years.

Hera stared at Hans coldly and said, “Apologize to my best friend.” 

Since he was from a martial arts family and he had been punished, 

there was no need to incur lasting enmity. 

Hans quickly lowered his head to Skadi. “I’m sorry.” 

Skadi approached him and slapped him across the face with a loud smack before adding coldly, “I forgive you.” 

Despite having never suffered such humiliation before, especially being in Jonford now and in front of these women, Hans remained 

silent. He did not even dare to harbor any resentment. 

Was Hera formidable? In a way. She had stirred up trouble in Jonford 

but did not pose a threat to a martial arts family like Hans’. In fact, 

the Tattle family could easily crush Hera’s influence. 

However, Nash Calcraft, the man feared and courted by almost half 

of the top circles, was the one backing her. While Hera could not 

affect the Tattle family, Nash could He could potentially destroy the 

Tattle family with just a word. 

Linking arms with Hera, Skadi said, “Bianca also got hit!” 

Hera had noticed, but before she could speak, Hans apologized to 

Bianca as well, “I’m… I’m sorry!” 

Bianca stepped forward and slapped him, mimicking Skadi’s tone as she said, “I forgive you!” 

Hans’ face swelled double its size, and his bodyguards could not bear to look directly at him. They turned their faces away in guilt.

The family head had instructed them to protect the young sir, but they did not dare to intervene now as Hans was being beaten. They were 

afraid that he would not even be able to leave Jonford. 

Hera glanced at them and said slowly, “You may leave.” 

Hans breathed a sigh of relief and quickly left with his entourage. 

Skadi rubbed her slightly swollen face and said somewhat 

aggrievedly, “Thank goodness you came, or Bianca and I wo e 

been in trouble!” 

Hera gave Skadi a disdainful look. “Whose fault is it for your la practice? Hans is about the same age as you and he’s already in Profound Reality Realm. You’re not even a grandmaster yet!” 

Skadi muttered, “It’s not my fault. The speed of one’s cultivation depends on martial talent, and I don’t have much of that. Not only 

that, but I also don’t have access to cultivation resources. The fact
