My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 1945

"W-What should I do now?" Clint was flustered as he stared at the shadow.

Zaafea patted his shoulder. "I told you, it's corroding your body. But as the owner of your body, you just need to drive it away."

"Will I go crazy again?"

"It's highly likely." Zaafea's tone changed. "Mr. Melton, this is your mission. Will you take a gamble? Do you dare defeat it and assimilate with it?"

Clint looked at the black shadow.

The shadow became clearer and clearer. Slowly, it turned into another version of Clint. There were also Declan, Nora, his parents, Amell, Gabe, Landrich, Oswald… They were all standing behind the black shadow, but nobody was on Clint’s side.

Zaafea shouted, "Clint! Will you take a gamble?!"

Clint's consciousness became much clearer after listening to Zaafea. He lowered his head, his gaze becoming firm.

"Yes!" he shouted.

In an instant, the originally blue sky turned into a black void.

Clint stood in the center, and memories flashed through him again.

"Hahaha! My son, you have to grow up quickly! Our family depends on you!"

Those were the words Reggie said when he first held Clint in his arms.

"Tool… You're just a tool for the Meltons."

Deep inside, a voice was affecting Clint's mind.

"Slowly, take it step by step…"

"Haha, Clint! Look, the toy duck… Quack, quack..."

"Declan… Nora..."

It was their voices.

"It's fake family affection! They don't think of you as a brother at all!"

"No… That's not it..."

"Mr. Clint, why are you leaving your toys everywhere again?"
