My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 537

Chapter 537 

Duncan placed a hand on the woman’s head as he closed his eyes. 

The Watson family was devastated. 

They had not received reports of anything odd from the hospital. 

It was essentially confirmed that Kai was dead. 

To prevent things from going awry, they instructed several of their men to keep an eye on Kai until his body was sent to the crematorium. 

At the Zell family’s home, Dylan Morkov and Grant Zell were in the midst of a pleasant conversation. 

“Oh, that’s right. Has Ben joined the National Martial Bureau yet?” 

Grant recalled Dylan had a grandson named Bennett Morkov. 

The young man had always been good-looking. 

He was probably one of Capiton’s most handsome young talents now. 

His granddaughter was graduating from university soon, so it was almost time for her to begin considering marriage. 

Dylan said disappointedly, “That little bastard is not interested in 

martial arts… He started a business of his own after graduating from university, and he’s running his company now!” 

“Well… Going into business is a good idea as well. Ben is so smart. 

There’s no doubt he’ll become one of the most successful 

Chapter 

businessmen in the future!” 

A disappointed look appeared in Grant’s eyes when he heard that Bennett was a businessman. 

His family was already influential enough when it came to business dealings. 

What he needed was a marriage that could bring him connections to the political sphere. 

Only by combining forces with another powerful family would the Zell family successfully secure an even more stable position. 

Dylan naturally knew what Grant was thinking. He sipped his tea and rearranged his features into a disappointed look as he said, “Your know how it is. Given my.connections, the Ten Families of Capiton are always looking for opportunities to work with him. He won’t have 

a chance to learn how to stand on his own two feet!” 

A glint instantly appeared in Grant’s eyes when he heard that. “Hahaha 

Talented individuals will always be recognized and provided with opportunities wherever they go… 

“The fact that Ben can bring the Ten Families together is a testament to his social skills. That’s a huge must when doing business!” 

Grant understood what his former classmate was trying to tell him. 

He wanted him to know that Bennett could make a name for himself 

without receiving help from anyone. 

Dylan smiled and glanced at Sydney, who was staring into space.” Does Sydney have a boyfriend yet?” 

“No… 

“She’s never dated!” Grant hurriedly added. 

Bennett was rubbing shoulders with Capiton’s Ten Families, and his grandfather was also a high-ranking official in the National Martial 

Bureau. 

Besides, he needed his former classmate’s help in his plan for 

revenge. 

He had to make sure they stayed on good terms. 

Fred Zell could tell where things were headed. 

Since both parties were interested in discussing marriage, he grinned and said, “Dad… I think it’d be nice if Sydney and Ben tried dating each 

other!” 

When Dylan and Grant heard that, they first exchanged stunned looks before smiling. 

Grant grinned as he asked, “What do you think, Sydney?” 

Sydney had not been paying attention to them. 

It had been 40 minutes since she spoke to Nash on the phone. 

According to her calculations, he would be arriving very soon. 

She had no idea what would happen next. 

“Sydney!” 

Frank frowned as he called her name out. 

“Ah… Sure… Sounds good!” 

Jolted back to reality, Sydney gave a hollow laugh as she nodded. 

The smile on Dylan’s face grew even wider. 

A relieved smile appeared on Grant’s face. 

“Dad… would Nash really come to see us?” 

A worried look appeared in Fred’s eyes as he gazed out at the night 

sky. 

Nash had just destroyed the Black Tiger Hall earlier that day, but neither the Inspection Office nor any other ministries had even made a peep. It was evident the connections he had made in the Northern 

Territory were doing their job. 

“Don’t worry. My men are stationed around the mansion… If he dares 

come here, I’ll make him regret his decision!” 

Dylan smiled confidently. 

Fred asked hesitantly, “Mr. Murphy, if I may ask… what level of 

cultivation have you achieved?” 

Dylan grinned. “Peak Profound Reality Realm… I’ll be breaking through 

to the Mystique Loyalty Realm soon!” 

Gosh… 

Fred drew in his breath. 

Peak Profound Reality Realm… 

He had heard previously that Nash and the Hidden-Ghost Juggernaut had drawn a truce during their battle at Zakariah’s martial arts school.
