My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 249

Chapter 249 

However, both the Nutcracker and Grim-Faced Juggernaut had failed. 1 

It was not that difficult to figure out that they would have probably done something to escalate the situation. 

Last night, they brought their men along to the Zabel estate to kill the entire Zabel family. 

However, the Zabel family had been unharmed while three of the Green Bamboo Juggernauts had died alongside Howard Lane. 

It was highly likely Nash was behind this. 

There were no ill feelings between himself and Nash, but Kai and Nash were not on good terms. 

Kai and Simon had also been growing close recently. If Kai were involved in last night’s happenings, the Watson family would face imminent disaster. 

Walter voiced his worries and then turned to Kai once more before saying sincerely, “Kai, I’ve always felt guilty because of your parents’ early passing and everything that happened back then, which is why I chose to turn a blind eye to all the ridiculous things you do and help you get out of trouble… But you have to listen to me this time…” 

The faces of the Watson family members turned pale after hearing what Walter said. 

“Kai… why don’t you just tell them what happened…” 

Queenie pursed her luscious lips and gave Kai a worried glance. 

Both she and Simon had been at Royal Bay last night. However, she had spent her time in the guest room and had no idea what he and Kai had discussed. 

Thinking back, there was no doubt they had been plotting against the Zabel family. 

Kevin chimed in, “Listen to your grandfather, Kai. Even if you were involved in what happened last night, he’ll have a way to help you out of things!” 

He and his wife spent most of the year overseas and had no idea who Nash Calcraft was. However, based on the way Walter was acting, he could tell Nash was not a force they should reckon with. 

Members of the Watson family turned to look at Kai. 

Those with shorter fuses even had angry expressions on their faces. However, Walter’s protectiveness toward Kai stopped them from being able to do anything. 

The pressure from his entire family was too much for Kai, who lowered his head and said, “Duncan and I gave Simon four billion dollars, which would later be paid forward to the six juggernauts!” 

“Bastard…” 

Walter sprang to his feet and glared at Kai. “Didn’t I already tell you to cut ties with Simon Lane?” 

Kai mumbled, “Nash Calcraft kept humiliating me. I can’t erase the hatred I feel toward him unless he dies!” 

Slap! 

It was a powerful slap, and the sounds of it rang in everyone’s ears. 

Kai’s right cheek turned red and swollen. Blood seeped from the corner of his mouth. 

Walter pointed at Kai and raged. “You… Go to Nash and beg for his forgiveness right now!” 

Just then, Janson stood and said, “Sir… Nash Calcraft has been tending to Mr. Lee at the Chateau Hotel since early last night. He has not left the hotel since then!” 

The Watson family members heaved sighs of relief after hearing that. 

If that were the case, it would mean that what happened last night was not Nash’s doing. The patriarch would have been worried for nothing. 

“Shut up!” 

“Kai may not know just how powerful Nash is, but I’m sure you and George do. How dare you allow him to do whatever he wanted?”
