My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 565

Walter was so stricken that he dropped the teacup in his hand on the ground. At the same time, he felt extremely uneasy. There were only two possibilities for Nash to be calling him.

Either Kai had woken up or he had failed to make it. Walter did not even have the courage to ask.

"Mr. Watson, who's the real owner of Splendor Microchips?"

"S-Splendor?" Walter was somewhat stunned but also relieved. At least Nash did not tell him that Kai had passed.

"I'm not very sure. I only recall the owner being from Mandora.”

"Your nephew, Louis, is the regional manager at Splendor, right?"

"Yes. Did he offend you, Dr. Calcraft? I'll have him come over to apologize to you right away!" Walter said eagerly.

"That's not necessary. Just take control of him for a few days. If someone calls looking for him, just have him make up an excuse. Just make sure nobody finds out that he's under your control!" Nash said solemnly.

Walter agreed without hesitation. After ending the call, Nash went back to refining the pill.

...

Watson Residence was an estate filled entirely with villas belonging to the Watson family. Louis was the son of one of Walter's cousins who had passed away due to illness several years ago. Before his death, he had specifically entrusted Louis to Walter.

Walter had provided Louis with a luxurious house, a fancy car, and an annual allowance of ten million. He believed he had fulfilled his duty to his cousin. If Louis had truly offended Nash, he would face more severe consequences than Kai.

Accompanied by Janson, Walter headed toward Louis' villa, which was located at the far end of the estate.

Louis and his wife were enjoying a candlelit dinner on the villa terrace. Despite being in her 40s, his wife had maintained her skin so well that she looked like she was in her 20s.

Although Walter was strict at times, he was the one supporting their family. With the annual allowance of ten million over the past three to five years, they had accumulated millions in savings.

Even if they just let it sit in the bank to earn interest, it would be enough for them to live a comfortable life for the rest of their lives.

If Walter were to hear these words, where in Jonford would they be able to stay?

Louis burped after drinking his wine. Calmer now, he smiled lightly and said, "I've had a bit too much to drink. Go make me a cup of hot tea, will you?"

The woman gave Louis a disdainful look before heading off to brew the tea. Just as she turned around, however, she saw Walter walking up the stairs with a stern expression on his face and his hands behind his back.

He had heard every word just now.
