My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 529

The slim man shook his head and said, "There are too many bodyguards. They obstructed my view. I couldn't see clearly."

The slightly chubby man took a deep breath and said, "Looks like I'll have to ask my cousin for help."

With that, he took out his phone and made a call.

Meanwhile, Hera's Maserati drove away with Nash looking out the window and scanning the area with his Third Eye. He spotted several suspicious cars but could not confirm if they were Duncan's arrangement. They were definitely connected to Kai's accident, though.

"Why isn't Melody coming back with us?" Hera asked while driving.

"There's not enough room, see?" Nash replied with a smile.

"Can't we squeeze a bit? We should be able to fit five people." Hera pouted.

"Your mom and I would've taken a taxi back if we had known. Our place isn't along your route anyway," Harrison said with a tinge of self-blame.

"Mom, Dad, it's okay. Melody has other things to attend to," Nash reassured the couple.

It was not exactly reassuring either since Melody indeed had a task to fulfill, which was to secretly get Kai back to Royal Bay Villa without anyone noticing.

As for how she was going to do that, Nash left it for Melody to figure out.

In less than ten minutes, they got stuck in traffic.

"Today is Thursday, and there's a traffic jam? Is there some big shopping mall event or something?" Lauren asked as she curiously looked at the line of cars outside.

Harrison shook his head. "How would I know?"

"Cousin, please check one more car. A red Maserati with the license plate ending in 666."

The voice on the other end of the phone sounded obsequious, and the leader snorted. "This won't become a precedent."

He had no choice but to agree to the request since his cousin made a lot of money and generously showered his parents with gifts on holidays. It was only a small favor, so it was hard for him to refuse.

Soon, Hera's car came into view. He immediately stood up and signaled for the car to stop. Raising his hand in salute, he said, "Hello, this is a routine inspection. Please show us your driver's ID, driver's license, and vehicle registration."

Hera obediently took out the three documents from her bag. After inspecting them, the man looked into the car. When his gaze met Nash's, he noticed a meaningful look in Nash's eyes.

The man smiled slightly and said, "Please open the trunk."
