My Substitute CEO Bride

Nash smiled. “I’m just showing you respect, lest you have to guard yourself against me tonight.”

Hera blushed and whined, “Actually, we can stay together but… but you can’t touch me!”

What she meant by staying together was that they could share the same bed.

She was just not ready for anything to happen between them.

“I can’t touch you while we sleep together? Are you trying to kill me?”

Nash shoved his hands into his pockets and walked into the next room.

Hera stood there, stunned.

Then, she stomped her feet and said, “Just what is going on in your mind?!”

Nash entered the room and moved to close the door. Smiling, he replied, “I’m a man, so, of course, I think about what men usually do!”

Just when the door was about to shut tight, Hera lodged her foot between the door and the frame. “Have you never been in a relationship?”

Nash was puzzled. “Why do you ask that?”

Hera took a deep breath. “Have you… Have you never considered that guys should show a little initiative?”

“What do you mean?”

“It’s just… Do you not intend to ask me for my contact information or something?”

“That’s right. Give me your number!” Nash nodded and smiled.

“Hmph, no!” Hera pulled her feet back before turning around and going into her room.

Nash was stunned for a few seconds. He then closed the door with a bored expression.

Lying on the bed, Nash fished out his phone and looked through his contact list.

He located Theo’s number and called him.

At this time, on the top floor of a 99–story building in Capiton, dozens of vividly dressed men, women, and children were having an open–air dinner party.

With a wine glass in hand, Lucas Skye said, “Skye Corporation’s net profit this month has exceeded the one billion mark. I hope everyone…”

“Hey… Nash…

“Ah… Alright, alright.

“Don’t worry, leave it to me…

“Wait… You… What did you just say? Get a 7nm lithography machine?

“Nash, I can’t manage that. It’s not something that can be solved with money…”

Theo answered the call on his phone and could not help retracting his neck when he saw

everyone looking at him.

Lucas scolded angrily, “You bastard, how many times have I told you that your phone must be turned off when I’m speaking…”

Theo put his hand over the receiver and said with a mournful expression, “Nash is looking for me. I don’t dare to ignore his call…”

When Lucas heard that it was Nash, his heart violently twitched.

He put down his wine glass and asked with a smile, “What is Nash looking for you for?”

“He wants a 7nm lithography machine!”

“That’s… That’s not impossible!” After hesitating for a few seconds, Lucas then said, “I have an old friend who’s unyielding. It might not be difficult for him to get a 7nm lithography machine!”

“Then… should I agree to Nash first?” Theo asked.

“Yes. What he has done for us is greater than the value of a lithography machine!” Lucas smiled.

A few years ago, he returned home from abroad with an extremely important product sample.

The dark web dispatched 16 powerful hitmen who were among the top 50 powerhouses to assassinate him and get the sample.

Nash had protected him using his own power, and the 16 great powerhouses all fell to his iron fists while he only suffered slight superficial wounds.

This kind of power was already comparable to the hitmen who stood in the top ten.

The Skyes offered one billion to hire Fred then.

Fortunately, Nash refused the huge sum and asked them to help investigate his background instead.

After receiving his father’s response, Theo quickly said to Nash, “Nash, my dad said he’ll help you out…

“A favor? Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

“Oh, Nash, you’re kidding now. What do you mean by fav–mmph…”

Before he could finish talking, Lucas stepped forward and covered his mouth.

He gave Theo a hard look and then grabbed the phone before saying with a smile, “Mr. Calcraft, I have to use all of my connections to get this 7nm lithography machine. You have to remember this favor!”
