My Substitute CEO Bride -
Chapter 459
Chapter 459
The intimacy from earlier had ignited Nash’s desires. Every time he wanted to get intimate with Hera, something unexpected would happen. Counting the days, he had been away in Xanthalos for nine days, so Hera’s menstrual period should have already passed.
“Alright… let’s go…”
Hera pulled Nash and began to walk upstairs.
Nash wore a puzzled expression.
What was going on?
Should she not have hesitated and playfully resisted him?
Why did it seem like she was even more eager than him?
They returned to the bedroom and immediately kissed again.
From the door to the bedside, they finally tumbled onto the bed.
Nash’s hands were not idle either. They were freely exploring underneath Hera’s clothing.
Hera pressed Nash’s hand and exhaled softly. “Maybe I should take a shower first…”
Nash smirked. “Together?”
Hera blushed. “No way… That’d be so embarrassing…”
At that moment, Hera’s phone rang.
Nash’s lips twitched at the sound.
He silently prayed it was not an emergency.
“Mr. Wilson… What is it at this hour?”
“Ms. Lewis… the server room is on fire…” Mr. Wilson said urgently.
“What?”
Hera turned pale and quickly got up from the bed. “We installed fire-resistant cotton and aluminum foil in the server room. How could it catch fire?”
Mr. Wilson said gravely, “It’s definitely not a wiring issue. It’s most likely that someone intentionally set it on fire!”
Hera took a deep breath. “How’s the fire now? Is it under control?”
Looking at the raging fire outside the window, Mr. Wilson replied with a hoarse voice, “The fire is out of control. We have to wait for the fire brigade…”
Hera’s phone dropped to the floor.
Someone had deliberately set the fire.
Who was it?
Who could it be?
Nash said with a somber face, “Let’s head there now!”
Hera drove at breakneck speed toward the Southern Suburbs.
Meanwhile, inside Helena’s apartment, Kai had just taken a shower. Helena asked with a grin, ” Baroque’s subsidiary is on fire. Did you arrange for that?”
On the TV, Jonford’s current news was being broadcast live.
Half of the factory area was ablaze.
Having not groomed himself for several days, Kai appeared more mature and weathered. Glancing at the TV report, he calmly said, “Do you think I still have the capability to arrange. for such a thing?”
Helena sighed. “When will your grandfather’s sanctions against you
end?”
The sanctions against Kai by Walter were even stricter than being blacklisted.
Not only was he restricted from taking trains or high-speed rails, but even restaurants on the streets would refuse him.
Helena ordered takeout for him daily.
Kai sat on the couch in silence.
Then, Helena bit her lip, saying, “Maybe you should apologize to Nash. If you make amends, perhaps your grandfather will forgive you!”
Last time, Nash had helped save both her and Kai.
Her feelings of animosity toward Kai and Hera had diminished by a whole lot.
Moreover, Walter’s sanctions against Kai were due to him offending Nash.
If Kai apologized and Walter lifted the sanctions, her business would get back on its feet.
Narrowing his eyes, Kai stated, “I’ve said it before. Even if I die, I won’t bow down and apologize to him!”
Helena frowned in annoyance. “But we can’t keep living like this. You have expensive taste, and I can’t afford to support you!”
Had it been before, she would never have dared to be angry with Kai.
Yet now, after facing a month of business challenges and accumulating debt, things were
different.
Her father had gone gray overnight, her mother had left, and if things continued this way, she would be ruined.
Kai gritted his teeth and said, “I’ll try to contact some old friends tomorrow!”
