Mr. CEO's Substitute Bride-Chapter 806 - 802: Found True Love Again

"No betrayal?" Edmund Foster sarcastically retorted, the irony unmistakable, "What about that young starlet being pregnant? If she hadn’t called Mia herself, Mia would still be in the dark. Don’t tell me you didn’t know about her pregnancy. If there hadn’t been an accident, would you have wanted to secretly raise an illegitimate daughter like your father?"

Felix Shaw was left speechless by Edmund Foster’s aggressive questioning, unable to find a defense for himself. Although he hadn’t thought about letting Elizabeth have the child, Edmund Foster was right; Elizabeth’s pregnancy was an undeniable fact.

With pursed lips, he stubbornly said, "Either way, I won’t agree to the divorce." Then he left Edmund Foster’s office.

"What a scoundrel." Edmund Foster muttered angrily under his breath and continued with his work.

...

The application for Hutton Industries’ directed share issuance has been submitted, now waiting for approval from the Securities Regulatory Commission. The company for the issuance has been confirmed, and meanwhile, Nathan Moore has already been helping gather quite a bit of stock on the secondary market on behalf of the company.

Felix Shaw decided that once he held more shares than his father, he would make him step down. It wasn’t out of filial defiance nor a desire to usurp; only by holding the reins of the company in his own hands could he drive that woman out of the company.

Three days later, Mia Foster returned from a business trip, conveniently bringing back the business partners she had been in contact with; thus, the task of hospitality fell on her shoulders—to arrange accommodations, personally drive them back and forth daily, and accompany them for meals.

In the afternoon, as she drove clients back from the production base to the hotel for rest, passing by a café, Mia Foster suggested, "President Qu, let’s go inside for a drink."

"Sure," President Qu agreed, and Mia Foster chose a parking spot, glided the car in, and after getting out, they walked into the café side by side.

In the café, Evander Lancaster lounged carelessly in a booth, watched as his date left in a huff, smirking dismissively, and lazily got up to leave. As soon as he stood up, he saw a man and woman walk in laughing at the entrance.

The woman wore a white business suit, the man donned a shirt and trousers, gently guiding her by the waist into a booth.

Ha, has Third Sister-in-law found true love again?

Evander Lancaster murmured to himself and sat back down, pulled out his phone, found Felix Shaw’s number, and dialed. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

"...Third Brother, don’t say I didn’t warn you, I just saw your wife with a man in a café..."

After tipping off Felix, Evander Lancaster got up and walked past Mia Foster’s seat and left.

After hanging up, Felix Shaw didn’t think too much. He grabbed his car keys and strode out of the office. It had been over a week since he last saw Mia Foster. He only knew from Nathan Moore that she was on a business trip. She wouldn’t answer his calls and hadn’t notified him when she was coming back; upon her return, she didn’t call him but had the mood to have coffee with another man!

...

After serving two cups of coffee and leaving, President Qu pushed the sugar dish towards Mia Foster, smiling as he suggested, "Women shouldn’t drink coffee too strong, adding a little sugar could make you feel happier."

Mia Foster smiled and raised an eyebrow, "President Qu doesn’t think I’m very happy?"

President Qu lowered his gaze, picked up the spoon, gently stirring the coffee, and smiled as he said, "I don’t know whether Manager Liang’s distraction is due to work or personal affairs; I’ve noticed that Manager Liang occasionally seems preoccupied."
