My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 460

He had always cared about his reputation.

He did not want to continue relying on others either.

If they did not figure something out soon, he and Helena would really end up on the streets.

Helena scoffed. “Which of your underlings hasn’t fled the moment trouble arose? Do you still care about your reputation? Your reputation’s been destroyed after everything that happened at Duncan’s house!”

“Shut up!”

Kai yelled, fuming with rage.

The humiliation at Duncan’s place where he was made to kneel and bark like a dog was something that haunted him forever.

He only revealed it because he was drunk.

Helena realized she hit Kai’s sore spot and softly said, “Kai... I’m sorry…”

After all, Kai approached Duncan to help her repay a 20 million debt.

Kai grabbed a beer from the fridge and went to the balcony.

He stared at the night outside, quietly drowning his sorrows in alcohol.

At Baroque’s subsidiary office, the fire from the server room had spread to the warehouse.

Night shift security and workshop employees were all trying to save the important items stored there.

The fire brigade had already arrived.

Firefighters were trying to put out the fire with their hoses.

Strangely, the more they poured water on it, the bigger the flames got.

“This is weird…”

A young firefighter adjusted his helmet as he continued to battle the flames.

A distraught Hans approached and said, “Sirs, please, don’t let the fire reach the warehouse…”

The warehouse contained imported components and USB drives.

It took three whole months to procure these vital components for upgrading their old chip machines.

For their project with Drake, they needed to enhance the performance of these chip machines.

If anything happened to these components, the delivery date for the Drake project would be delayed by at least three months or even more.

At that moment, Jupiter and Angelica arrived with a large inspection team.

“Mr. Calcraft... we came to help put out the fire…”

Jupiter approached with purposeful strides.

Nash replied, “Thank you, Chief Holt... but please help me find out who started the fire!”

After saying these words, he briskly walked toward the main gate.

There were too many people around, so he could not use his incredible speed.

“Angelica... you lead them to extinguish the fire. Squad Three, come with me to investigate the cause of this accident!”

Jupiter issued commands decisively.

Everyone immediately acted upon his instructions.

When Hera saw that half of the warehouse had already burned, her vision went black, and she fainted.

Using the cover of night, Nash swiftly moved like a shadow to Hera’s side and supported her.
