Mr. CEO's Substitute Bride Chapter 976 - 972: Wanting His Brothers to Know Her Place in

"This is Felix Shaw, Uncle Felix,"

Nicholas Croft wrapped his arm around Sophie Foster and looked at Felix Shaw, Sophie grinning mischievously, "Hello, Uncle Felix, I must say, you’re really handso," Sophie said sweetly, like honey from her lips. Felix Shaw smiled proudly, raising his finger to point at Sophie, as if to say she had good taste.

But then Sophie continued, her face turning cold with disdain, "But you’re not very good with words. If it weren’t for our harmonious society today, you might have been beaten up by the mob countless tis."

"Lara, speaking like that is not cute at all," Felix Shaw pretended to be upset and sighed. Sophie, however, blinked innocently and said, "Uncle Felix, please don’t be self-deceptive, okay? I’m just telling the truth."

"Haha..." As Sophie’s words fell, Evander Lancaster, who was next to her, burst out laughing and asked Nicholas Croft, "Bro, where did you pick up this darling? She’s so adorable!"

Glancing down at the sowhat defiant little face, Nicholas Croft’s handso face softened, "Found her on the street, a little kitten."

"Uncle Nicholas, are you dissing ?" Sophie pouted sadly, batting her mascara-coated lashes that fluttered like little brushes, tickling one’s heart.

"No, Uncle is complinting you." Nicholas Croft raised his hand to pinch Sophie’s nose affectionately and then wrapped his arm around her to introduce her to Evander Lancaster.

"This is Evander Lancaster, Uncle Evander, he’s a doctor..."

"Wow, Uncle Evander is a doctor, how amazing!" Sophie interrupted before Nicholas could finish, looking at Evander with a sudden fondness; the uncles and aunties at the hospital were always very kind when her mother was hospitalized.

"It’s nothing amazing," Evander said with a smile, "if you ever feel unwell, you can co to Uncle’s hospital, and Uncle will check you up for free."

"Great, thank you, Uncle!"

Sophie smiled adorably and then bowed slightly to the n to introduce herself.

"Gentlen, my na is Sophie Foster, eighteen and a half years old, currently..." At this point, Sophie stopped, turned her little face up to look at the man a head taller than her, shyly biting her lower lip, her voice becoming smaller, "I’m currently with Uncle Nicholas,"

It was clear Sophie was lacking confidence, so Nicholas Croft assertively said, "Lara, you can totally tell the uncles that you’re Uncle Nicholas’s woman!"

Biting her lower lip, Sophie murmured, "Really?"

"Silly girl!" Nicholas Croft affectionately pinched Sophie’s chin again, but Felix Shaw impatiently spoke up, "Bro, quickly sit down and let’s play cards, if you want to get cozy, wait until you’re back ho behind closed doors to do it!"

Nicholas Croft sat down at the card table with Sophie, "Lara, cards or mahjong, which do we play?"

"Hmm... mahjong," Sophie thought for a mont and said. She could barely understand mahjong, while cards she had only seen in movies.

"Alright, let’s play mahjong today, Lara, you play with the uncles." Nicholas intentionally wanted Sophie to substitute for him, just to show his buddies her place in his heart.

Sophie pointed at her own nose, confusedly asking, "? But... I’m not very good at it."

"No problem, Uncle will help you watch the tiles, if you win, it’s yours, if you lose, Uncle will cover it."

"Isn’t that not so good," Sophie, who had never played cards and was now facing a group of unfamiliar n, felt a bit nervous, giggling as she said, "It’s all n and just as a girl, it feels odd."

"Alright, Uncle will play cards himself, you accompany Uncle." Nicholas did not insist further, got up and switched places with Sophie, sitting at the center of the table himself.
