My Substitute CEO Bride

Chapter 1177
Meanwhile, Nash left his other hand in his pocket as they shook hands.
Zachariah immediately deduced that Nash was the one helping Melody out.
Melody beckoned. “I've made reservations for a private room. This way, please,
Mr. Dune...”
Zachariah was a composed man. Despite knowing there was a man who was on
good terms with the governor-general present, he still managed to keep his cool.
He chuckled as he said, “So, you've started addressing me as “Mr. Dune’ as well,
eh, Melody? Your father and I used to be good friends You can address me as
Uncle Zachariah if you prefer that!”
Melody smiled slightly as she nodded. “This way, please, Uncle Zachariah...”
A smile materialized on Zachariah’s face as he walked ahea
Nash walked calmly beside Melody.
They gathered in the first private room on the third floor of the Hotel.
Wine and food were soon brought to their table.
Melody and Zachariah both had a glass of wine after exchanging pleasantries.
Zachariah cut straight to the chase after everyone had taken their seats?
“Melody, I'm sure you've heard that the Eves had a mass layoff just this
afternoon?”
Melody nodded. “The Eves laid off 3,800 employees today!”
A gloomy look appeared on Zachariah’s face. “They're doing this to put pressure
on the government. After all, the Eves play a massive part in the local economy.
Both the political and business spheres will go up in flames if they collapse
without warning!”
He had witnessed the Snyder family rise to the top and then become replaced by
the Eves during his time serving.
The business world was like a battlefield, and change occurred every day at
every moment.
He was not worried about whether these families prospered or declined. Rather,
he was worried about how that would affect the people and their communities.
If a family’s fortune began declining, several other families would stick their
fingers into that slice of pie and slowly take over the businesses they once
owned. It would not influence the employ who worked the production line.
However, Melody had been merciless in her attack on the Eves.
It had been less than a day, but the Eves had already been exposed for being
involved in six murders. Three members of the family had already gotten
arrested.
Fulcrum Group’s market value had dropped by 60 billion dollars, and their other
businesses had also lost a combined 30 billion dollars.
He had never heard of or witnessed such methods.
The Eves were obviously frantic and were forcing the government to intervene by
conducting mass layoffs.
“I wasn't expecting the Eves to use such lowly methods either. I'll think of a way
to rectify this issue!” Melody said in an aggrieved tone.
She had expected the government to get involved upon hearing of the mass
layoffs the Eves were conducting. Zachariah’s invitation to talk had indeed
caused her a lot of pressure.
Thankfully, Nash had pulled some strings and allowed her to be on the same
playing ground as Zachariah during their conversation.
“I'm not interested in the turf wars going on in the business world.
However, the employees staffed on the production line are innocent. All they're
trying to do is earn their keep to care for their families!

However, he changed his mind after receiving a call from the governor -general.
“Thank you, Uncle Zachariah!”
Melody smiled.
Then, Tina reached out and invited Zachariah to have a drink with her.
The opportunity to have dinner with a governor was hard to come by. She had to
make an impression on him, no matter what it took.
Melody picked her glass up and said to Nash, “Thanks for today. I'll drink to your
health!”
