My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 1073

Nash immediately teleported himself five feet away from Melody, but he still got a mouthful of exhaust.

Nash waved a hand to part the dust from the air and gritted his teeth as he watched the Porsche drive away.

Melody seemed to be holding a massive grudge against him!

It seemed that the chasm between them had only grown larger after she blamed him for not properly protecting her father.

Nash sighed as he handed his phone to Maria. “I’m going into seclusion for three days, Maria. No one is allowed to disturb me before the three days are up!”

“Does this mean you aren’t going to take any food or drink for three days again?”

Maria could not bear to watch that.

Nash smiled slightly. “I’m a martial artist. I won’t get hungry even if I go half a month without consuming anything!”

Maria took some fruits and food ration bars from the fridge. “You should still take some food with you. Otherwise, Ms. Hera will be worried!”

After giving it some thought, Nash accepted the food Maria offered him.

When he entered the living room, he looked upward.

Both Ash and Bertram, who were sitting with their legs crossed at the top of the landing, opened their eyes slightly.

They both nodded their heads slightly.

Nash then headed into the basement.

He felt a wave of excitement wash over him as he gazed at the herbs in the room.

There were so many herbs that he could not even estimate how many medicinal pills he would be able to craft!

The journey to Munford should be able to help him attain at least 800 minor goals.

…

Harrison and Lauren arrived at the mansion after about two hours had passed.

Hera and Melody also returned at the same time they arrived.

Inside the living room, Maria told everyone that Nash had gone into seclusion once more.

Hera pouted. “Three days… Isn’t that a little too long?”

She had purposely asked in her group chats for tips on pleasing one’s husband as a way of showcasing her gratitude to Nash.

Dozens of links had been sent in that group chat, and she had spent the next hour blushing furiously as she went through them all. In fact, she had been planning to try out several new positions with Nash that evening!

Looks of disappointment also appeared on Harrison's and Lauren’s faces. However, their worry for Nash was even greater.

Nash always looked so tired whenever he came out of seclusion.

Lauren did not know whether she should be laughing or crying as she said, “Nash helped us out so much, but we didn’t even get to say thank you to him!”

Harrison added, “That’s right. Looks like my wish to get drunk with my son-in-law won’t be coming true tonight!”

Robin chuckled awkwardly. “Really, it’s nothing. I just wanted to invite Mr. Calcraft for a drink!”

That convinced Hera even further that Robin was keeping something from her, and that he was doing it on Nash’s orders. She chuckled coolly as she said, “So, you aren’t going to tell me, huh? In that case, you don’t have to come in to work tomorrow!”

“Ms. Hera… I…”

Robin panicked.

Hera was the one calling the shots at the branch office.

She genuinely had the power to fire him at any time.

“Please don’t make things more difficult than they have to be for me, Ms. Hera!”

Robin did not budge from his stance.

Hera drew in a deep breath. “Nash has something to attend to and will not be reachable for the next three days. He’s left me in charge of things, which is why his phone is here with me!”

Robin remained silent.

Nash's phone was with Hera.

If Nash could not be contacted for the next three days, did that mean things had to be dragged on for another three days?

To prevent more trouble from arising, Robin revealed that there were hidden cameras and bugs placed in the president’s office.

An ugly look immediately appeared on Hera’s face upon hearing that. “Did you find out any information?”
