My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 802

His girlfriend had cheated on him in the past. Consumed by hatred, he lost his mind and burst out violently with a knife due to overwhelming rage. Later, he fled to Gavistat and assumed a new identity. He took refuge in the Mistclad Monastery.

During his years in the monastery, he did manage to let go of his attachments and hatred. He genuinely engaged in virtuous deeds at the time, using the holistic medical skills taught by his master to help those suffering from illness.

However, after his master passed, the new leader began exploiting the monastery for personal gain. He charged exorbitant fees and embezzled donations. The once ascetic priests started breaking their vows by indulging in flesh.

He confronted the new leader about these transgressions, but the response had been dismissive. The leader argued, "You're naïve. Alcohol and meat pass through the gut while God resides in the heart. These rules and precepts are just for show."

Under the new leader’s management, the Mistclad Monastery soon announced its dissolution. The leader even sold the monastery to a tourism company, absconding with the funds and leaving the priests homeless.

Before Dalton left, he opened the relic his master left behind. Inside was a part of the Eight-Part Scepter and a parchment explaining its usage.

His master had acquired the Eight-Part Scepter and originally intended to use it to quell the turbulence on Possidian Mountain. However, Dalton knew his master had his motives for it.

The Mythism sect that had the Eight-Part Scepter would undoubtedly be at a higher standing in the Mythism community. Unfortunately, his master departed for the Pure Land before the Mistclad Monastery achieved such prominence.

Even accomplished priests like his master had personal motives. What else was there to say about the rest?

Afterward, he left Gavistat with the Eight-Part Scepter until he was found by members of the Emerald Wren Guard. The Emerald Wren Guard was a secret organization affiliated with the government, consisting of individuals with various extraordinary abilities.

While its members enjoyed considerable freedom, when the Emerald Wren Order was issued, they had to obey the organization's commands without question.

With his newfound wealth of eight million, he quickly succumbed to the allure of worldly pleasures. In the past year, he had traveled far and wide, assisting numerous distressed female supplicants in their times of need.

However, he caught the attention of the Inspection Office in Sagen.

Dalton gazed at Felicity's exquisite face, smiling subtly. "As for the second one…”

"Do you want to sleep with me?" Felicity said with a teasing smile.

Dalton hastily replied, "I wouldn't dare... For my second condition, I want you to help me investigate someone.”

The deputy chief of the Inspection Office was not someone he would ever dare act against even if he were a hundred times braver.

Felicity shook her head and said, "That would be an abuse of power. I can't do it!"

The investigation into Dalton was justified because he frequented the red-light district, making him part of the red list. Thus, he was under the Inspection Office's monitoring. Him asking her to investigate someone else would indeed be an abuse of power.
