My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 12

“Yeah!”

“That’s the new energy car company my grandfather invested in and created years ago. He didn’t want it anymore, so he handed it over to my father-in-law. If you’re interested, I can have my father-in-law give it to you!”

“No. I just need Drake to support Baroque Group!” Nash said indifferently.

“Understood!”

Nash hung up the phone and returned to the meeting room.

Hera happened to come back with Skadi.

Looking at the few new band-aids on Skadi’s face, Nash could not bear it and said, “I think you should go home and recuperate for a while!”

Skadi’s Stage Four power was simply too weak.

That Albino guy was probably at Stage Nine.

Since he killed Albino, the Watsons would definitely not let it slide.

After all, they were the top wealthiest family, and they might even bring forth some grandmasters.

With Skadi’s power, even self-defense would be difficult, let alone protecting Hera.

Skadi looked at Nash with caution and said, “What? Are you already sending me away so soon? You don’t trust me to protect Hera?”

If Nash had acted earlier, she would not have been beaten to a pulp.

She could not trust Nash with Hera’s safety.

Nash smiled and said, “From now on, I’ll be responsible for Hera’s safety!”

“You?” Skadi looked at Nash with dissatisfaction. “I don’t believe you’d…”

“Suit yourself. You’ve seen it too. The assassins who attacked Hera yesterday were professional killers. The bodyguards around Helena now are all Stage Nines. With your strength, you can’t protect Hera at all!” Nasih put his hands in his pockets and said in a casual tone.

“Don’t underestimate me… Our Martial Arts Association also has Stage Nine grandmasters…”

“Skade, why don’t you go home and rest for a few days? Come and protect me when your injuries have healed!” Hera helped Skadi tidy her hair and gently persuaded her.

“Boo-hoo… Do you dislike me now?” Skadi, pretending to be dramatic, cried with a touch of grievance in her voice.

“I don’t dislike you at all. When I saw that you got injured, I felt hurt too!” Hera held Skadi’s hand and explained.

“Fine!”

Skadi stopped crying and then stared at Nash, saying, “Take good care of Hera. If I see that she’s lost weight in a few days, I’ll bring the entire Martial Arts Association to hold you accountable!”

…

In the CEO’s office of Watson Group, Helena sat on the sofa and cried aggrievedly.

The young man sitting on the office chair was on a phone call.

Upon hearing the news of Albino’s death, he only frowned slightly. “I see. Recently, a large number of secret guards from the Northern territory have entered Jonford’s territory. It’s likely that important figures will come to Jonford. You must not act recklessly!”

“Understood, Mr. Kai!”

After hanging up the phone, Kai pinched the bridge of his nose.

After a moment, he looked at Helena again and asked, “Are you sure Albino didn’t even have a chance to fight back?”

Helena nodded, choking up as she said, “I’m sure. Albino didn’t have a chance to fight back before Nash twisted his arm, then pierced his shoulder with his arm. Finally, he threw Albino out of the window. The whole process took less than ten seconds!”

As she spoke, a deep fear appeared in her eyes.

She stood up and walked toward Kai, acting spoiled, “Darling, you must get your hands on Nash. I want him to suffer!”

“What’s the origin of this Nash guy?” Kai frowned.

He had spent a lot of money to hire ten experts, and any one of them could take on 30 special forces soldiers single-handedly.

Plus, Albino had won the International Mixed Martial Arts Fighting Competition three times consecutively.
