My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 2044

Back in Northern Territory, Clint was strolling leisurely on the street. He knew Nash had sent plenty of his men to watch over him and the area.

He was also working back-to-back shifts with Deluca and the Woodrow brothers. He knew that this incident was not something to be taken lightly, but something did not sit right with him.

Even after he listened to Nash's and Shane’s explanation about the whole incident, he felt something was amiss.

Clint muttered to himself, "Why? What exactly is it? Something doesn’t make sense here. I keep having that strange, ominous feeling. But why?”

Everything seemed normal. Nothing was out of the ordinary.

“The Unyielding Truth and the Illuminion’s battle, The Summit of Ten Thousand Dynasties, the Northern Territory, the Unyielding Truth, a possible mole, Nash, the Woodrow brothers, the Unyielding Truth…” Clint muttered as he sorted out the existing clues. He returned to the hotel with six copper coins in his hands.

Just when he was about to do some divination, he caught a whiff of a smell. "Is that gas?"

With a loud boom, an explosion was heard, and the top of the building was engulfed in flames. Pedestrians around were startled while Theo and the rest hurriedly evacuated from the building.

"No! Mr. Melton! Mr. Melton is still—"

Clint walked out from behind and said, "I'm here."

Theo was already in tears, with snot dripping down his nose. He exclaimed, "You scared me to death, Mr. Melton! I’m so glad you’re okay."

"Alright, let's call the authorities to put out the fire first. Is there anyone in the building who has not yet evacuated?"
