My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calcraft)

Chapter 40

Hubert reprimanded Rooney with a flushed face and a raised voice.

Rooney trembled in fear. Realizing that she had almost slipped her tongue, she quickly closed her mouth obediently.

Helena also glared disapprovingly at her own mother.

They had managed to keep the matter of her grandfather’s critical condition hidden, and now it was brought up again.

Hubert cautiously looked at Herman and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his father pinching his nose in distress.

Lauren smiled faintly and said, “Dad, you heard everything, right? You were indeed critically ill and admitted to Jonford Hospital. Mr. Dean even invited Miracle Doctor Tanner, but they couldn’t cure you. It was Nash who cured you…”

Hubert angrily interjected, “Lauren, will you stop spreading nonsense here…”

Harrison said coldly, “Who’s the one spreading nonsense about the truth?”

“That’s enough…”

Herman roared.

Immediately, both families fell silent.
