My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 1179

Chapter 1179 

The phone on the table began ringing. 

Zachariah was calling. 

Saul picked up the phone and said in a pleasant voice, “Hello, 

Governor…” 

“Things will pick up for the Eves tomorrow,” Zachariah said in a calm 

voice. 

Saul’s good mood became even better. “Thank you, Governor. I’ve already sent someone over with some gifts. Please do accept them!” 

Entrepreneurs still had to bow down to the authorities. 

What did it matter if Melody was powerful? She still had to bow down to the governor, did she not? 

“Thank you, but I’ll pass on the gifts. I just hope you’ll reconsider your decision regarding the layoffs. Those employees don’t have it easy either!” Zachariah said in a displeased tone. 

“You’re a just man, Governor. I respect that. I’ll make sure to treat you to a good meal some other day!” 

Saul was in a great mood. 

Most of the losses had come from the plummet in shares, but he had already gained control over that situation. 

The shareholders could still be placated for now, so the share price would soon rise in value again as long as he managed to gain control 

over Melody.. 

After Zachariah hung up the phone, Saul relayed the news to his son and grandson. All three generations of the Eve men had relieved 

smiles on their faces. 

Over 200 people congregated on Freeman Manor’s grounds. 

They were all martial artists. The four core men of the Freeman family had dedicated time and resources to training them. 

Even the weaker ones had achieved the third division of the Energy Cultivation Realm, while the more talented ones were already at the 

grandmaster level. 

They were, alongside the Freeman Martial Alliance, part of the Freeman family’s most treasured asset. 

Three coffins were placed in the living room. 

The Freeman family men were gathered there as well. There were 

about 20 of them in the group. 

All of them had tears on their faces, and an air of melancholy hun 

around them. 

Arthur, who was Harold’s grandson, spoke in a furious voice as his eyes turned red. “No one in Sagen has ever dared cross the Freeman family. He must die tonight. I don’t care who he is!” 

Arthur was a martial artist as well. He had begun learning the art of the Flamecloud Palm from his grandfather ever since he was five 

years old. 

He was a martial arts prodigy and had become a grandmaster at just 

15 years old. When he turned 20, he began traveling the world after becoming a great-grandmaster. 

Just three years ago, on the 15th anniversary of his travels, he 

achieved the early stage Mystique Loyalty Realm in the depths of a 

forest cave. 

A man who had achieved Mystique Loyalty Realm at the age of 35! 

How many of those could be found in the entirety of Drakonia? 

The Freeman family could exert their control over all ten of Capiton’s 

elite families and establish a presence as legendary as the Young 

family. 

Just an hour earlier, Arthur had finally returned to his family. 

His initial plan had been to surprise his father and grandfather. 

However, he had found the Freeman Manor enveloped in waves of 

sorrow. 

After asking around, he finally realized what was going on. 

His father was gone. 

At first, Arthur had not believed it. 

After all, the Freeman family had already become an elite family 

years ago. 

The fact that they had four men who had achieved the Profound Reality Realm protecting the family meant no one dared lay a finger on the Freeman family.
