My Substitute CEO Bride

Chapter 396

Not to mention earning 7,000 or 8,000 a month, even if one earned 10,000 or 20,000 a month, they could not afford such extravagance!

This was not some five-star hotel, it was just a homestead.

“Haha… Madam Lunaris only charging 500 per person because of me. Normally, it’d be at least 2,000 per person!” Bradley said, taking out his tobacco pouch and rolling some tobacco into

paper.

“It’s no surprise that the prices are high, given its remote location,” Nash replied with a smile.

“Mr. Nash is right… Not only can you eat and stay at Madam Lunaris’ place, but you can also buy things you can’t replace outside!”

Bradley said, smoking his pipe. After speaking, he walked toward the courtyard with Nash, and the others following closely behind.

Inside the yard, there were four round tables covered with disposable plastic tablecloths.

There was a simple cooking area in the corner, next to two large refrigerators.

The hunched old lady from earlier came out from inside the house.

With her pale, dead-fish-like eyes, she stared eerily at Melody. “You’re a good-looking girl… My son isn’t married yet. Would you consider marrying him?”

Melody swallowed hard, hiding behind Nash as she said, “He’s my man… You should discuss it with him!”

The old lady’s eyes drifted to Nash. “I’ll give you five million if you hand your wife over to my son!”

Nash laughed and said, “She’s just teasing you. We’re not together.”

The old lady’s face darkened.

“Madam Lunaris… this is the current chief of the Tomb Whisperer Lineage. Please be

courteous toward him!”

Bradley blew a thick cloud of smoke in Madam Lunaris’ direction.

A look of surprise appeared on Madam Lunaris’ wrinkled face. “A Young?”

Bradley nodded. “That’s right.”

Madam Lunaris snickered. “It’s a pity that the Youngs haven’t been wiped out completely!”

“You old hag… Are you seeking death?”

Xeno drew an IMI Desert Eagle and pointed it at the old lady.

Yet Madam Lunaris showed no fear.

Nash activated his Third Eye and noticed a golden bead, the size of a pigeon’s egg, in Madam Lunaris’ energy center,

Holy…

Mystique Loyalty Realm!

It was no wonder she was so confident.

“Xeno… show some respect!”

Nash quickly reprimanded Xeno.

A great-grandmaster could easily dodge bullets, and a Profound Reality Realm expert could resist them. What more about someone in the Mystique Loyalty Realm like Madam Lunaris?

Unaware of the situation, Xeno coldly stated, “If you disrespect Mr. Nash again, I won’t hold back!”

Madam Lunaris sneered but said nothing.

Then, Bradley turned to Nico. “Nico… pay Madam Lunaris!”

Nico took out a stack of fresh sequential banknotes from his bag.

After counting the number of people, nine in total, it amounted to 4,500. He reluctantly handed the bills to Madam Lunaris.

Madam Lunaris, with her withered hand, took the money and asked, “Will you be staying the night?”

Bradley shook his head. “No… we’ll be traveling overnight.”

Madam Lunaris smiled and said, “There’s a heavy storm forecasted for tomorrow… I suggest you leave the day after.”

Melody interjected, “I just checked the weather forecast. It’ll be sunny for the next seven days!”

She despised such profiteers.

Even though the money was not much, she refused to allow this old lady to take advantage of them.

Madam Lunaris stuffed the money into her pocket and grinned. “Up to you, “Let’s listen to Madam Lunaris!”

then!”
