My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 2249

"She does look like her," Xenith said with a smirk.

"Damn it, why haven't you slept yet?"

Xenith walked to the refrigerator, opened it, and rummaged around.

Sterling was worried that the commotion would wake Lenyra up, so he hurried forward to hush Xenith. "Hey! It's so late at night. Keep it down!"

"I'm hungry. I want a midnight snack."

"Ugh, you’re doing this on purpose."

"How is that possible, Mosley? I've been starving all day. What's wrong with a little snack?"

"I’ve known you for so many years, but I've never heard you say you were hungry before!"

"Oops."

"What?"

Xenith pointed behind Sterling.

Sterling turned around and saw Lenyra rubbing her eyes. She was awakened by their bickering.

"Xenith, you..." Sterling turned around and saw that Xenith had already disappeared.

"Damn it, he’s gone so fast!"

At this time, Lenyra also woke up completely from her sleep.

"Sterling, you're back."

"Yeah." Sterling nodded and then continued, "You should go back to sleep. I'll go to another room—"

However, Lenyra came close to him at this moment. "Could you please don't go? Stay with me..."

Then, Lenyra kissed him.

Time seemed to have stopped at that moment.

Fate was such a wonderful thing.

Lenyra could see the light in this man's eyes at first glance. She felt that maybe it was God's arrangement that she took a long detour that day, which enabled her chance encounter with Sterling.

Although her father took great care of her, she knew that he was just controlling her. She knew that she was like a bird in a gilded cage.

However, she took a brave leap of faith at that time. She took advantage of the chaos to avoid the bodyguards who were watching her and then became friends with Sterling.

After that day, she fantasized about escaping all the time.

Coincidentally, Sterling was thinking about applying to work at their company at that time. That gave them a second chance to meet again.
