Caught Him Cheating My Life Restarted (Natalie) novel Chapter 678

Simon said angrily, “Who does Miss Everhart like? I’ve never heard of her having a boyfriend. I'm about to become the CEO of the Lockwood Group. I can win her over!”

“Is that so? Well then, I wish you success.”

Mrs. Lockwood’s smile was full of scorn, as if the idea of him wooing Miss Everhart was the most absurd joke she had ever heard.

Simon stood there, grinding his teeth in frustration. Natalie grew curious about who this Miss Everhart really was.

Just then, she heard the butler announce.

“Miss Everhart has arrived.”

Upon hearing this, Edgar said happily, “The Everhart family is truly efficient. They’ve sent Miss Everhart over to meet Simon already. Simon, you’d better be on your best behavior.”

Simon’s face lit up. “Don’t worry, Grandpa. I will definitely be on my best behavior.”

At that moment, a tall, curvy woman with fair skin, stunning features, and flowing wavy hair walked in. She moved with a captivating grace.

Simon was mesmerized, sighing in admiration.

“The winner of the Miss Globe pageant is truly as beautiful as they say.”

Edgar added, “Miss Everhart’s beauty is indeed worthy of the title. A woman like her is the only one fit to be the wife of the Lockwood Group’s CEO.”

Simon’s eyes were glued to Miss Everhart.

Edgar urged him, “What are you waiting for? Go and greet Miss Everhart.”

Simon quickly went up to her and said, “Miss Everhart, I heard you just returned to the country today. I was planning to wait a few days for you to rest before asking you out, but you came over first. I’m truly flattered.”

Angela Everhart looked at Simon and said, “Flattered? And who are you?”

Edgar’s brows furrowed. Hadn’t he already spoken to the Everhart family?

He had arranged for Angela to meet Simon, who would sooner or later inherit the Lockwood Group. Their family would not let a disabled person continue to lead it.

“He will be the CEO because I say so!”

Edgar declared authoritatively, but Angela looked at him with a face full of disbelief.

Simon quickly explained, “Miss Everhart, it seems you’ve just returned and aren’t aware of the situation. My grandfather is the husband of the late Mrs. Lockwood, Terence’s grandfather. He is the rightful and undisputed head of this family!”

“But I heard the husband of the late Mrs. Lockwood died fifty years ago. Did this one… rise from the dead?”

Edgar's face was grim. Given his status in Marentis, everyone respected him. But here in Aurelis, everyone was so disrespectful.

Did they really think he was just some ordinary old man?
