My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 776

Eric gritted his teeth as he drew a sharp intake of breath. The veins on his neck popped while his eyes turned even more bloodshot.

Atlas stared at his master’s wound, which looked like a burn wound. The redness of the wound had faded significantly, but it had not fully faded yet.

“Master, why don’t we get Master Nash to look at your wound?”

“No… It’s alright!”

Eric was in so much pain that he began shuddering.

Despite that, he gritted his teeth and forced himself to withstand the pain. There was no way he would let Nash know the ghoul had one-upped him.

The silhouettes of Atlas and the two maids had turned red in Eric’s eyes. This was a sign that the ghoul poison was attacking his heart. He bit his tongue so that he could remain conscious. “Help… Help me back to my room…”

Atlas helped Eric up from the couch and slung one of his arms over Eric's shoulders before helping the man make his way to his room.

Winnie watched them walk away. She had a worried look on her face as she said, “Oh no, he won’t turn into a zombie, will he? In the zombie films I watch, everyone ends up turning into a zombie themselves if they're bitten by one!”

Jesebel frowned slightly. “He’s a Golden Amulet Master, so he’ll probably have some way of keeping the poison under control!"

Inside the room on the second floor, Atlas placed Eric on a bed.

Eric flapped the sleeves of his robe and used a gust of true energy to push Atlas out of the room. The door slammed shut with a resounding bang. “Don’t let anyone else in here!”

Atlas’ brows knitted themselves together as he debated if he should call Nash or not.

Nash and Hera had returned to Royal Bay.

After dropping Hera off at home, Nash said, “I’m going to go check on things in the basement, but I’ll spend some time with you later!”

Hera nodded. “I’m going to visit Melody!”

Nash headed to the basement to check on the medicinal stones inside the divine cauldron.

The surface of the three medicinal stones were beginning to turn red.

Based on current progress, it would take over another 20 hours.

Nash headed toward Royal Bay Villa 14 after leaving the basement.

Harrison’s car pulled to a stop at the main entrance just as he arrived.

Jasper, dressed in a suit, got out and opened the door for Harrison and Lauren.

“Thank you!”

“Thank you!”

Jasper swore in all seriousness, “I swear that if anything like this happens in the future, I'll die an untimely death!”

At that, the look on Nash’s face turned less ugly. He asked, “So, have you found your master?”

Jasper smiled sadly. “All I found was a gravestone… The villagers living nearby told me he died three years ago!”

Nash bade him peace inwardly.

It would be difficult for a legendary assassin to escape death forever.

Nash’s footsteps were light as he headed toward Royal Bay Villa 14.

His brows knitted themselves together as he arrived at the door.

Such intense corpse energy.

Had Eric brought it home with him?

He got on his tiptoes and jumped straight into the courtyard. Then, he sprinted into the living room at the speed of light.

Winnie, who had been eating a banana, was so surprised she nearly deepthroated it.

Atlas was smoking on the couch while Jesebel was working in the kitchen with an apron tied around her waist.
