My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 2334

In Grenford, light rain had already started falling from the sky.

The four participants were used to this by now. This perpetually rainy city was named Grenford, symbolizing the hope of its past inhabitants for brighter days to come.

However, despite its hopeful name, reality proved otherwise. The constant rain continued as always, and those living in Grenford spent their days under a perpetual cloud of gloom.

Whether it was Chuck or the other three, they were all merely casualties of this game. Four figures stood at four corners of the expansive arena, each one alert and tense. None of them dared to let their guard down even for a moment.

Chuck had never met Smiley before, but he had not expected Francel to be absent from the final showdown.

Seeing the bracelets on Smiley's wrist and recalling what Francel had once mentioned about a certain girl, Chuck pieced together what had likely happened.

The power of the bracelets was immense, but could this little girl truly handle it? Had he himself truly made up his mind? Initially, all of this seemed driven by the expectations of his parents and family.

Yet now, standing before him as an adversary was his own brother. He knew no words could make Clayton turn back, but the gentle part of him still felt a pang of regret.

Barther and Clayton naturally stood together, though they were merely using each other. Clayton was fully aware that Barther saw him as nothing more than a tool, but with victory within reach, he had to keep his true thoughts hidden.

"Mr. Barther, let me help you," Clayton said, lowering his head obsequiously.

Barther was not foolish. He knew exactly what Clayton was up to, but with no better options, he reluctantly agreed.

The rain grew heavier, and all four participants activated their true energy defenses simultaneously.

Smiley was the first to make a move!
