My Substitute CEO Bride

Chapter 493
The endless fear in David had made him numb to the pain of his
crushed fingers. Just as he said what he did, a cold feminine voice came from outside the door.
“Do you know that the Long Lake Industrial Zone has been sold to
me?”
Following the voice, Sydney and Queenie arrived with around 30
people. Among them, there were seven grandmasters and two great- grandmasters. They had just come from school and were
still in their
school uniforms.
David’s pupils constricted sharply. He was one of the prominent figures in Jonford, so, of course, he recognized the sons and
daughters of the city’s top five wealthiest families.
Queenie was the heiress to the richest family, and Sydney was from
the Zell family. Then, there was Xeno from the Dragon Tiger Gate, and
of course, Nash.
Had he poked a hornet’s nest today?
“You’re from the Black Tiger Hall, right?” Sydney said with great
authority. “Tell your gang leader to come here.”
David shivered and stammered, “Ms. Zell, we know we
were wron
“Don’t you understand what I said?”

Sydney’s eyebrows furrowed. David, with a pale face, quickly took out his phone and nervously dialed the Black Tiger Hall’s
leader’s number.
At that moment, the Black Tiger Hall leader was at a high-end club, surrounded by beautiful women. One was feeding him
cherries mouth- to-mouth while another was cozying up to him in his arms.
He was smiling blissfully as he had recently made nearly a billion dollars through the Map of Splendid Mountains and Rivers
business. In the past few days, he had been indulging in a life of hedonism, both
day and night..
When the phone on the coffee table lit up and vibrated, he demanded someone to pass it to him. He then pushed the sultry
woman out of his embrace. She noticed that it was David who was calling and said
in a seductive tone, “Mr. Tiger, David is calling!”
The leader of the Black Tiger Hall was annoyed. “This little bastard is
ruining my mood. Doesn’t he know I’m busy these days?” As he grumbled, he took the phone. In an indifferent tone, he said,
“David, what’s up?”
“M-Mr. Tiger, Ms. Zell is asking you to come to the Long Lake
Industrial Zone.” David’s trembling voice sounded from the other end
of the line.
“Ms. Zell? Who?” Black Tiger spat out the cherry pit from his mouth,
looking puzzled.
“Mr. Zell’s granddaughter!” David gulped. He did not dare refer to the
man’s name directly in Sydney’s presence.
Black Tiger’s face turned serious. “Grant Zell?”
There was no one else in Jonford worthy of being called ‘Mr. Zell’ the

way David just did. He just could not believe that the Zell family had
come looking for him.
“Yes... Mr. Watson’s granddaughter is here too!” David added to emphasize the gravity of the situation.
Black Tiger suddenly shot up to his feet. “What are they doing at the
industrial zone?”
Sydney snatched the phone from David and casually said, “Mr. Tiger, how about you come over for a chat?”
Black Tiger broke into a cold sweat. “I... I’ll be right there.”
He was a man of loyalty. With his right-hand man detained, Black Tiger had no reason not to go.
In a corner of the room, a skinny old man with a goatee approached.
and asked, “Boss, is something wrong?”
Black Tiger was in a daze. “David has been detained by Sydney and Queenie. It’s likely there’s trouble afoot.”
The skinny old man frowned and asked, “So what do you plan to do?”
Black Tiger paced back and forth with his hands behind his back. If he
brought his men with him, it would surely upset Sydney and Queenie.
He also did not know what had led to David offending these two young ladies.
However, should he go alone, what would he do if he were to be
detained as well?
The skinny old man seemed to sense Black Tiger’s concerns and said softly, “I suggest bringing everyone to rescue David
forcefully.”
