Mr. CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 1127 - 1123: Blaming Myself for Being Too Naturally Beautiful

Seeing her mother upset, Sophia Hamilton quickly moved over to appease her, unwillingly shaking her mother’s arm and saying, "Mom, don’t be mad. It’s not like I did it on purpose. If you want to blame someone, blame your beautiful daughter for catching those wolves’ attention."Juliana Lancaster was amused by her daughter’s aggrieved yet proud look, chuckled lightly, and tapped her on the forehead, saying, "You think you’re justified!"

"Well, that’s just how it is!" Sophia Hamilton tilted her head, and the smirk on her lips couldn’t conceal her pride.

Juliana Lancaster shook her head helplessly, "Alright, stop being vain. Hurry back to your room, put on some clothes, before you catch a cold."

Reminded by her mother, Sophia Hamilton suddenly felt the chill, rubbed her arms, and hopped towards her room.

Watching her daughter’s adorable figure, Juliana Lancaster shook her head helplessly, "This child, why does she never seem to grow up?"

Sophia Hamilton returned to her room, put on a plush pajamas, plugged in her earphones, laid on the bed, and listened to music while flipping through the newspaper.

In the living room, the doorbell rang, and Juliana Lancaster responded with a "Coming," then put down the greens in her hand and walked quickly to open the door.

"Who are you looking for?" Seeing the man standing at the door, Juliana Lancaster asked doubtfully, thinking he might be collecting sanitation fees, so she opened the door without much thought.

"Hello, are you Ms. Juliana Lancaster?"

Ewan Zimmerman asked politely, with a friendly smile on his face.

"You are..." Juliana Lancaster was puzzled, not recognizing this young man in her memory.

"Auntie, I’m not a bad person. May I come in to talk?" Ewan Zimmerman asked politely, as the matter was somewhat private and couldn’t be explained in just a few words.

After sizing up Ewan Zimmerman, who was dressed in a suit and didn’t look like a bad person, Juliana Lancaster nodded and stepped aside, "Come in."

"Thank you," Ewan Zimmerman walked into the Lancaster Family’s living room and instinctively surveyed the surroundings, "Have a seat."

Juliana Lancaster pointed to the two-seater sofa, Ewan Zimmerman politely thanked her again, took a business card out of his suit pocket and offered it to Juliana Lancaster with both hands.

"Auntie, my surname is Zimmerman, and this is my business card."

Juliana Lancaster took the card and glanced at it, sitting down at the corner of the sofa, "What brings you to me?"

"Well, I’m here on behalf of our president..."

"Take a seat and talk," Juliana Lancaster interrupted Ewan Zimmerman, pointing to the sofa again.

"Thank you," Ewan Zimmerman nodded politely, sat on the other side of the sofa, and continued, "Our president heard that you used to work at Huali Hospital, and has specifically instructed me to inquire about something with you."

"What’s the matter?"

Juliana Lancaster asked calmly, sensing that the inquiry from Ewan the assistant wasn’t a simple matter.

"Do you know Ariana Evans?" Ewan Zimmerman asked straightforwardly.

Juliana Lancaster hesitated for a moment, having already guessed Ewan Zimmerman’s purpose, looked again at the business card in her hand, and said calmly, "I know her. We were colleagues before."

"Auntie, do you remember a surgery from a few years ago?" Ewan Zimmerman probed, and Juliana Lancaster suddenly turned her gaze towards him, with an expression of surprise on her face. If she wasn’t mistaken, it was definitely about that girl.

Feeling her reactions were a bit intense, she lowered her gaze, looked at the business card in her hand, and smiled, saying, "I know what you’re trying to find out, but I have one condition."

"What condition? If it’s not too much, we’ll definitely agree," Ewan Zimmerman vowed.

Juliana Lancaster proposed her condition, "I have a daughter who just lost her job. If your president agrees to let her be his secretary, I will tell you what I know."
