My Substitute CEO Bride

“Mhm, Grandpa Eve, please take care of yourself too!”

Melody hung up the phone, sighing in disappointment.

Nash poured a cup of tea for Melody. “Saul Eve doesn’t seem to genuinely care about your family.”

On the way back, Melody had explained that the person she had called for help to take care of her grandfather’s body was Saul Eve. He was from the martial arts family of Goldenfalls.

He was an old schoolmate of her grandfather’s. Their relationship was not close, but they were not enemies either.

However, as her grandfather’s household conditions improved after his marriage, his relationship with Saul became much closer.

“My grandma lost a martial arts skill called the Lion’s Roar and an incomplete map in her possession, both of which were brought out from the Young family!

“Years ago, after getting drunk at a school reunion, my grandfather revealed some secrets. Most people didn’t know about the Youngs, so they weren’t paying attention. But Saul, being from a martial arts family, understood the importance of these two items. That’s why he became so attentive to our family, trying to get his hands on Lion’s Roar and the map!

“My grandma saw through his scheme a long time ago and pretended to be close to the Eves so that she could use the Eves’ influence to protect us!

“I thought he had given up on those two items over the years, but it turns out he’s still after them!”

Melody’s voice conveyed her disappointment.

Over the years, Saul had indeed taken great care of her family.

Saul had also contributed significantly to her father becoming the richest man in Goldenfalls.

Unfortunately, a car accident seven years ago resulted in the deaths of both of her parents. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

She went into hiding, following her grandmother to protect Young Gardens.

Melody had not told Nash about these personal matters.

“How about Ol’ Devil? Who is he?” Nash continued to ask.

He had reached the peak of the Profound Reality Realm and made the second breakthrough in Creation Technique. Taking on Ol’ Devil should not be a problem.

However, on the way back, Melody informed him that Ol’ Devil had two brothers, both at the half-step of the Mystique Loyalty Realm.

“Ol’ Devil’s real name is Harold Freeman. He has three brothers, all of whom were once the secret guards of the Youngs. The Youngs’ extermination was due to them being inside operatives!

“Only my grandma knew this secret. She told me only after she was hit by the Profound Grappling Slap!”

Mentioning her grandma, Melody could not help but shed tears.

“Harold’s two younger brothers, Samuel and Johnson Freeman, are both at the half-step of the Mystique Loyalty Realm. And the youngest, Yeti, is a master at the peak of the Profound Reality Realm. Only the Eves in Goldenfalls have the strength to stand against them!”

“Traitors! They all deserve to die!” A killing intent flashed in Nash’s eyes.

Four names from the Freeman family were added to his revenge list.

Thinking of the map, Nash continued, “How much do you know about the secrets of that map?”

“Grandma said the Youngs once built a Dream City with one billion taels of silver, but only the successive leaders of the Youngs know its location!

“Before anything happened to the Youngs, many ambitious people wanted to find Dream City. The leader back then wanted to burn the map, but he was opposed by many family members on that day. The Youngs then had an internal conflict, and the map was torn into eight pieces. In the end, only three pieces remained with the Youngs!”

Melody tried to recall every word her grandmother told her to remember, fearing she might miss any detail.

Nash felt somewhat desperate.

Out of the eight pieces of the map, he only had one.

Including Melody’s, they only had two. Where could they find the remaining six pieces?

Outside the villa, Yvonne sat on the ground, crying while hugging her knees.

Hera parked her car on her lot.

Seeing her cousin in such a state, she quickly approached and asked, “Yvonne… what happened? Who bullied you?”

Yvonne looked up at Hera, her tears streaming down even more. “Hera… you’re finally back… I was almost strangled to death!”

Noticing the marks on Yvonne’s neck, anger flashed across Hera’s face. “Who did this?!”

“Nash brought back a wild woman… She… She hit me… Boo-hoo…”

Tears streamed down Yvonne’s face as she recounted thes

Hera comforted Yvonne. “It’s okay… Don’t cry anymore. We’ll confront her together!”
