My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 183

Chapter 183 

They would only cause the other martial families to be disloyal to them if they were to make Francis their enemy. 

When that time came, Francis would join forces with the other martial arts families to put a sanction on the Klein family, which would only land the family in eternal doom. 

In an unlicensed taxi a few kilometers away, a conversation was taking place. 

“Sir… why don’t you just get rid of Skylar?” 

The taxi driver was a middle-aged man in his 40s. He was wearing overalls designated by the taxi company and had deep, sharp eyes. 

Sitting in the back seat, the Smiling Grim Reaper said indifferently, “The Klein family’s strength is far beyond your imagination. Getting rid of him will not only cause trouble for the real Smiling Grim Reaper, but it’ll also end up killing the remaining survivors of the Lewis family. Besides, the Klein family also checks and keeps another huge ancient martial family in balance. If Skylar dies, another ancient martial family will become the dominant family, and their ambition might even endanger the government and the public!” 

The driver laughed and said, “Skylar is old and cunning. Perhaps he’s already guessed who you are!” 

The Smiling Grim Reaper turned his head to look out the window. “That’s exactly what I want. 

It was three days later and lunchtime at Royal Bay Villa. 

Harrison had gotten out of his grief. 

After just three days, there were already some silver strands running through his thick black 

hair. 

Hera ate a few mouthfuls of food before putting down her cutlery. “Dad, Mom, I’m full!” 

She looked haggard and even had dark circles under her eyes. 

In the past few nights, she would see the miserable state of her relatives and her grandfather’s unrecognizable face the moment she closed her eyes. 

“Hera, eat some more. You’ve lost so much weight in just these three days,” Lauren said as she served her a pork rib. 

“She’s right, Hera. Your grandfather wouldn’t want to see you like this!” Harrison consoled in a deep voice. 

“I know. I really just can’t stomach any more food!” Hera replied through a forced smile. 

Harrison shook his head helplessly but said nothing more. 

Lauren, on the other hand, took a sip of fish stew as she said, “Hera’s already married. She’s not ours to worry about anymore. Let her husband watch over her.” 

Harrison smiled slightly. “You’re right.” 

Nash had been eating and did not catch up with the conversation. Confused, he said, “Hera’s above me. How could I be the one to watch over her?” 

Hera flushed. “I have something important to do today. I’m going to the office first!” 

Just as she was about to get up, Nash grabbed her wrist. 

Without waiting for Hera to react, he pulled her into his embrace. 

Hera’s eyes widened as she looked at him. “W-What are you doing?” 

Nash picked up a drumstick and brought it to her mouth before saying in a low voice, “You’re not allowed to go anywhere until you’re full.” 

Hera had indeed lost weight these few days. If this were to continue, it would eventually become a problem. 

“You! Let go of me!”
