My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 2050

This woman had a face so beautiful it could charm a nation. Her little face was adorable but not childish. She did not give off a vixen-like allure but more of a pure, innocent, and ethereal beauty.

"Uh, are you alright, miss?" Clint turned his head away in embarrassment.

"Thank you, my benefactor. I came here because I heard that there are hot springs in the mountains that can relieve fatigue. In the midst of my bath, this monster appeared and frightened me.

"Then, it started chasing after me. I tried so desperately to run away from it. I’m safe thanks to you. Otherwise, I might have ended up in the monster’s belly today." The woman started to cry as she explained her predicament.

"Ah… Uh..." Clint quickly stepped forward to comfort the woman as she was crying so pitifully. "It’s okay, you’re okay now. By the way, what's your name and where is your home?"

"I… My name is Rainie Florentine. I lost my parents when I was born. I grew up in an orphanage and then was adopted by a cruel and sinister family. I thought I had finally escaped from that terrible home, but I never thought that… Boo-hoo…" Rainie covered her face and cried loudly.

"Alright, don't cry." Clint took off his coat and said, "Here, you can have my coat first. Where are your clothes?"

"I was carrying my clothes while I was escaping just now, but they were all torn to pieces by the monster..."

"I see. Well, you can come with me and I'll get you a new set of clothes," Clint said.

"Really, are you sure?" Rainie widened her glasses and asked in disbelief.

"I can't just leave you here, so let's go." Clint helped Rainie up, but she suddenly fainted in his arms.

"M-Miss?" Clint's face turned red, and he stuttered as he tried to call out again, "M-Miss? Are you okay, miss? Wake up, please. I shouldn't… Men and women shouldn't touch…”

Clint, who had been practicing with his master from a young age until his 20s, had never had any intimate contact with a woman. He carefully brought Rainie back to the villa.

Theo insisted on giving this villa to Clint as a token of his apology after the Empire Hotel was bombed, but Clint did not accept it. However, Clint currently had no other place to stay, so he had to temporarily use this villa as a base. The villa was also where Clint met with Stellar.

The villa had complete facilities, along with dedicated house staff. The location was far away from the city, and the surroundings were peaceful and quiet. It was the perfect place for retirement.
