My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 2617

Fogort thought for a moment and then spoke in a deliberately casual tone, adding an air of mystery to his words, “Well, you see, I really don’t know.”

“What?”

“Master Calcraft, in my book, any event has a 50-50 chance.”

Fogort shook his head, reciting something his master once said.

“My master once told me that everything in this world is up to fate, and all we can do is take action. I know how to extract that guy’s abilities, but there’s also a chance it could fail. Or I might not even get to him before I die. Who knows?

Fogort smiled, and his reflection in the elevator doors mirrored it. They both silently prepared for what lay ahead.

“Good luck, Master Calcraft!”
