My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 98

Chapter 98 

[W-What? Stop trying to scare me!] 

Hera hugged the blanket tightly and shivered. 

Skadi replied with a long text: [I’m not trying to…. Grandpa once saw someone who was possessed. The person looked stiff when they walked. It was like they had lost their soul!] 

Nash got up slowly at this moment. 

His mind was blank, and he turned around while looking like he was in a daze. 

Nash had depended on his master ever since he was little after the Young Family Village was burned to the ground. Now, his 

only support was gone. 

Although his master was not dead, his having ascended was no different from if he had died. 

His master had once said that once an immortal cultivator ascended to the immortal realm, they would no longer be able to enter the lower plane. 

Nash walked toward the sofa like a zombie, and fear shot through Hera. 

Trembling, she sent another message to Skadi: [Okay, you might be right!] 

[Would you like me to come over and accompany you?] 

[He went and laid down on the sofa!] 

[Then it should be fine. Maybe it’s just a harmless ghost playing around.] 

The sound of muffled thunder continued outside, which sent Hera ducking under the covers from fright. 

“N-Nash, a-are you alright?” she asked, her voice shaking. 

“I’m alright,” Nash replied. 

Hera continued, “Did… Did you see something?” 

Nash smiled dumbly and asked, “Why would I have?” 

“Then… then why were you on the ground bowing just now?” 

“I thought of my master, so I just bowed to him.” 

“Really?” 

Hera stuck her head out from under the blanket. She saw Nash lying on the sofa with a red light on his face. 

Just then, there was another round of thunder. 

“Ah!” 

Hera shrank back into the covers again in fright. Meanwhile, Nash was browsing through some islands in the South Sea. 

His master had left for the South Sea to look for a chance to break through his shackles, but he had no idea which island it was. 

The island he was currently looking at was Maple Leaf Island. The island was so full of red maple trees that the entire ground was blanketed with red maple leaves, which gave the island a dreamy effect. 

When Nash heard Hera yelp, he asked helplessly, “What’s the matter with you?” 

“W-Why is your face glowing red?” 

“I guess it’s just the light from my phone.” Nash could not help but answer with a superficial snicker. 

Hera quietly lifted a corner of her blanket when she heard that and was slightly relieved when she noticed that Nash had his phone in his hand. 

The raindrops hit the window while the lightning and thunder came one after another. 

“Nash, aren’t you afraid?” 

“What’s there to be afraid of?” 

“The thunder!” 

“I’m not scared of thunder.” 

“I am, a little…” Hera closed her eyes tightly. 

She had hinted to Nash that he could come sleep with her, and thus, her heart was beating fast at this moment while her face was flushed red. 

She had even thought about what she was going to say next. She would say that he could sleep with her but could not touch
