My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 2278

At 12:15 pm, Helio and Dahlia were being pushed back far from BrightState Tower. With Helio's true energy sealed, they were completely overwhelmed.

Yet, Dahlia still believed in her brother who was in front of her.

"Patrick, what happened?"

Patrick suddenly stopped his attack.

"Dahlia, you shouldn't be on that side. You and I are chosen by the heavens. We must eliminate those who stand in our way!"

…

A few years earlier, Patrick was still an employee of Universal Group.

During a secret mission, he and Helio teamed up to destroy an evil Drakonian organization. That mission was the last time they ever saw each other.

At the time, Helio was ecstatic. "I told you that big guy couldn't take two of my punches! Ha! You didn't believe me!"

Patrick nodded halfheartedly, viewing Helio as an overly passionate youth.

Helio then opened the mission list. "This is our next stop."

They soon arrived at an abandoned factory.

Upon entering, they were overwhelmed by the strong smell of gunpowder.
