My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 1175

Fulcrum Group was the driver behind Sagen’s economy.

If anything happened to them, it would be a blemish on Zachariah's track record in politics.

Saul said excitedly, “Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Dune!”

Zachariah heaved a weary sigh after he hung up the phone.

The secretary chauffeuring him said in a low voice, “Sir, I don’t think you should get involved in this matter!”

Zachariah lit a cigarette and took a long drag before saying, “How can I sit by and not get involved? The Eve family just sacked 3,000 of their employees today. If I don’t get involved, 10,000 people will be sacked the next day.

"Are you going to volunteer to relocate those who lost their jobs?”

The dirt on the Eve family involved human lives.

He did not want to help the Eves, but they were one of Sagen’s five largest families and employed over 200,000 employees.

Saul was sacking employees to force the government authorities to get involved.

“Come on, let’s go meet Melody Stone. This woman is even crueler than her father!”

Zachariah got out of the car.

Then, his phone began ringing again.

He glanced at the caller ID. It was Matthew, the governor-general of the South.

Zachariah trembled as he hurriedly answered the phone. “Governer-General Matthew…”

…

At the entrance to the Empire Hotel, Melody was bringing Nash along with her to meet up with Tina.

“Hello, Mr. Calcraft!”

Tina smiled as she held a hand out in greeting.

Her gaze no longer held any contempt for Nash.

Nash shook her hand briefly. “Hello!”

His eyebrows knitted themselves together briefly when he took Tina’s hand into his.

Her hand was cold to the touch, but her palm was clammy.

Nash looked up and noticed dark spots in the space between Tina’s eyebrows. Her pupils looked cloudy as well. He frowned as he said, “You’re sick!”

The smile on Tina’s face instantly stiffened.

Melody reached a hand out and waved it before Nash’s eyes.

“Melody, we can still remain friends if you don’t say anything!”

Tina glared at Melody.

He was such a wonderful man, so why should she pass on trying to shoot her shot just because Melody did not want to get together with him?

“I’m trying to figure out the cause of her illness!”

Nash rolled his eyes at Melody.

“Is that so? Should I ask Tina to strip naked so that you can get a better view?”

Melody’s voice was tinged with jealousy.

She was so much better than Tina in every possible way, but Nash had never looked at her that way.

Nash said ruefully, “There’s something off about the pendant she’s wearing. It has too much negative energy in it, and it's causing an imbalance of her inner energies. Tina, if you don’t get rid of it, you won’t make it past the next week!”

Melody’s eyes widened. “Why didn’t you say that sooner?”

Tina removed the pendant from her neck as she said, “This was a gift from my father. I lent it to my niece yesterday!”
