My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 1426

Upon hearing her brother's words, Maya's desire grew deep in her.

She let go of the past and focused on getting some money first.

With that in mind, she pushed aside the poker table and greeted flatteringly, "Mrs. Lewis, please come in!"

Rooney glanced at Maya and walked into the courtyard, heading toward the living room. Maya and the others immediately followed.

"Adam, come out and greet Mrs. Lewis..." Johnny shouted at Adam, who was kneeling on the ground.

'Mrs. Lewis? Who's that?' wondered Adam.

Adam left the living room and saw Rooney, his expression turning gloomy.

However, he quickly regained his composure. Perhaps she did come to mourn for his mother?

"Hello, Mrs. Lewis..."

Adam greeted respectfully.

When Herman's mother was alive, Maria called Herman's wife 'Madam'.

Hubert's wife was addressed as 'Mrs. Lewis', and Harrison's wife was called 'young Mrs. Lewis'.

Since Rooney was from the Lewises, Adam should address her as his mother did.

Rooney looked at Maria's black and white portrait with a sneer. Then, unexpectedly, she spat on the picture.

"What are you doing?" Adam's eyes widened in anger. He moved forward to attack her.

Johnny quickly stepped forward, holding Adam's waist. "Adam, don't be impulsive..."

Adam was furious. "Get off... She insulted my mother. I'm going to kill her..."

Rooney chuckled. "Come on, let go of him. I want to see if this lawyer dares to touch me?"

At her words, Johnny let go of Adam. Dealing with wealthy people like her could bring benefits if they just went along with her.

Adam grabbed Rooney's collar with one hand and clenched his fist with the other, but he hesitated to strike.
