My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 1640

The Fisher family stood up with glasses in their hands.

This was exactly the kind of thing Nash found to be troublesome. There were way too many restrictions, and he felt helpless. He stood up with his glass and said politely, “My apologies for coming uninvited and causing trouble to everyone! Thank you for your hospitality!”

After chugging down a glass, everyone slowly sat down.

Tatum could sense that Nash was not fond of such occasions, so he stopped toasting him altogether. Instead, everyone started to dig in.

"Well… I have something to say!" Maverick suddenly spoke, immediately attracting the attention of the whole table.

Tatum's expression darkened. “Can’t it wait until lunch is over? Don’t you realize that you’re disturbing Mr. Calcraft’s meal?”

Maverick shrank his neck in embarrassment. "Then... let's talk about it after lunch!"

Nash smiled and said, “Go ahead. We’re just having a meal, so it’s not a disturbance.”

Tatum's expression softened a little. “Well, go ahead, then!”

Maverick stood up and said, "It's nothing serious. I just wanted to introduce my girlfriend to everyone."

Reyrena choked on her drink.

What?

Girlfriend?

Could he be referring to her?

Bah!

‘Reyrena, what nonsense are you thinking? Have you been reading too many romance novels?’ Reyrena thought to herself.

"Girlfriend?"

Francel put down his cutlery and chuckled. "When did you start dating someone?"

"Maverick, has your first love returned to the country?" a pretty woman asked in surprise.

Reyrena continued drinking her soup with her head down. Sure enough, she had thought too much. It was not like she did not know Maverick's status. He was the Northwest Prince!
