My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 1571

Sammy's eyes sparkled, already imagining Nash in military uniform. Oh how handsome and majestic he would be!

Nash scratched his nose. "Sort of."

Sammy’s eyes narrowed. "You seem very free. You must be an officer, right?"

Nash chuckled. "You guessed it."

Sammy pursed her lips. "It's just common sense. Anyone with a bit of brain could figure it out!

"Alright, you go eat. I need to check the place where you'll be staying tonight!" Sammy flashed a toothy smile, her two adorable dimples showing.

"Thank you for your hard work!" Nash replied politely with a smile, then went inside to join Bertram and the others at a table for dinner. It was all home-cooked dishes, delicious and plentiful. The soldiers enjoyed their meal with relish.

Across the street, Darcus spoke solemnly in a Rolls-Royce, "That girl just now seems to know Mr. Calcraft."

"Hmm, I never expected someone from a third-rate family to know him!" Dima's gaze deepened, and then he raised an eyebrow. "Perhaps he likes youthful girls like her?"

Darcus chuckled. "Should we get Dalia to shoot her shot?"

Dima shook his head. "Now is not the right time. Acting too eagerly will only antagonize Mr. Calcraft. General Copper is having a celebration banquet tomorrow. Let her try then!"

"Do you think Dalia will have a chance to have a drink with him at tomorrow's event?" Battlestar, whose name was also Dresden, asked lightly.

Darcus sighed. "Forget it. Love is something that should be left to fate. The Roches will never use the happiness of our descendants to climb the social ladder,” he said before pausing. "Check on that girl just now and give her help as necessary. Who knows, she might become Mrs. Calcraft in the future!"

...

As soon as the message was sent, the entire business circle in Munford was shaken. Top-tier big shots who never spoke in the group suddenly appeared, eager to bear the cost of the function tomorrow.

If they found out that Miriam had entertained them tonight, she would surely be favored by all the major families. Even if she only had three restaurants and 12 low-grade inns, she could still do good business.

Damien was puzzled. "But why would these people be eating at casual restaurants and staying in basic inns? Doesn't Grandpa have a hotel? Let's have them brought to his hotel. He'd surely be pleased!”

Percival calmly replied, "They're soldiers. Of course, they can't stay in luxury places. That's why the Roche family chose casual restaurants and basic inns.”

Realization struck the mother and son when they heard this. "We can’t let them stay at Miriam’s inns tonight. Our inn is a business inn, a tier higher than their establishment. We must find a way to invite these people to stay at our family's inn!" Saskia gritted her teeth. She regretted giving up the opportunity to the person she liked the least.

"It's simple. We’ll just have Miriam take these people to our inn," Percival said. He also knew the value these people possessed. If they could accommodate them well, doors to more cooperation opportunities might open up for them.
