My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 461

Chapter 461 

“The warehouse… We can’t let the warehouse burn,” Hera said weakly. 

Nash looked toward the warehouse. He replied with a serious expression, “You rest here. I’ll put out the fire.” 

At this moment, a shadow appeared in front of Nash. 

“Nash.” 

“Sherman, what are you doing here?” 

“I’ve been protecting Miss Hera!” 

“Hurry up and put out the fire,” Nash quickly said before he carried Hera to the security booth. 

There were about a dozen female workers standing next to the security booth. 

The HR manager, Lori, rushed to the door when she saw Nash carrying Hera over. “What happened to Ms. Lewis?” she asked, concerned. 

“It’s good that you’re here. Help me take care of Hera. I’m going to put out the fire,” Nash said before immediately shuffling Hera into Lori’s arms. 

Lori was not as strong as Nash, and her whole body sank down. Even so, she was still able to grit her teeth and lift Hera thanks to her slender figure. She carried Hera into the security booth and deposited her in a chair. 

She then called over a former classmate of hers who studied medicine for help. 

Sherman went to the back of the control room. He shattered the surveillance cameras with his true energy and then channeled it toward the raging fire. 

The fire on a large section of the wall diminished, but then it quickly flared back up. Sherman furrowed his brows and muttered to himself, “How am I going to put it out?” 

Nash arrived at the back of the control room right then. The intervention of someone from the Profound Reality Realm was truly extraordinary. 

There were inspectors, firefighters, and hundreds of employees who had come out of the workshops. They were now gathered in front of the factory. Most of them were ordinary people with limited understanding of martial arts and probably an even more limited understanding of energy cultivation. 

Nash looked around the place before approaching the side of the warehouse. With a single punch, he made a hole in the wall and went through it. 

Sherman followed closely behind Nash. 

Inside the warehouse, a massive fire was burning, and two security guards in their 40s were pushing a forklift through the flames. They were already on fire themselves. 

Nash waved his hand and extinguished the flames on the two guards using his true energy. However, the flames reignited in the next moment. 

Nash furrowed his brows slightly and then sniffed the air, his expression growing even more grim. 

There was a pungent smell in the air, indicating that someone had introduced chemical substances into the warehouse. 

“Sir, get out of here quickly! Don’t come in!” 

Unable to hold on any longer, one of the security guards fell to the ground and writhed in pain. Nash took off his own clothes and used them to cover the injured guard’s body. He then enveloped the guard with his true energy and removed all the air from inside the true energy barrier, finally extinguishing the flames. 

The security guard had suffered extensive burns on his face. Fingers trembling, he pointed toward a shelf that was about to be consumed by the fire. He said, “That… That shelf… must not burn…” 

Due to the lack of oxygen inside the true energy barrier, the security guard quickly lost consciousness. 

Nash turned to four others and said, “You take these two out.”
