My Substitute CEO Bride

Chapter 590
Hera was puzzled when she saw that the HR manager was calling her. Lori usually handled issues from the HR department.
Why would Riley contact her when she was the CEO?
Hera answered the phone with a cold tone. “Supervisor Yard, is there something you need?”
Riley stammered nervously, “Ms. Lewis... Ms. Lynch, she... She...”
Whether it was due to nervousness or another reason, Riley seemed to have a hard time articulating her words ‘properly.
Brows furrowed, Hera asked, “What happened to Ms. Lynch?”
“S-She’s dead!”
Hera froze as if struck by lightning. Lori was dead? How... How could this be? Just last night, she had sent pictures of herself
being all affectionate. Today was not April Fools’ Day, and it was not her birthday either. There was no reason for them to play a
prank on her.
Hera trembled, her lips quivering. She was unable to speak.
Riley continued, “The officers from the Inspection Office have arrived. Ms. Lewis, would you like to come and take a look?”
Hera staggered, and Helena reacted quickly and rushed forward to support her by the arm.
“I... I’ll come over right away...”
Hera disconnected the call, looking lost and devastated. Then, with red eyes, she looked at Melody and asked, “Melody, can you
take me to the company?”
Eating with his head down, Finn seemed worried that Melody might also drag him along. Melody stood up and patted him on the
shoulder. “You drive!”
Finn wiped his mouth with a napkin. “Ken, are you done eating?”
Ken silently stood up.

Realizing Ken did not have a driver’s license, Finn said seriously, “A man should know how to drive. I’ll register you for a driving
schoo some other day. Then, you can get your license.”
“Thank you, Finn.”
Melody glanced at Ken, saying, “He just wants to find a chauffeur to replace him!”
Like a wolf whose tail got stepped on, Finn grinned and said, “Melody, you’re trying to sow discord between me and Ken!”
As he said this, Finn then noticed the tears streaming down Hera’sface. He immediately closed his mouth and then looked at
Melody, whispering, “What’s going on?”
Melody shrugged. “How would I know?”
Hera had taken the call privately and they did not dare eavesdrop.
Melody tossed the car keys to Finn.
A moment later, a white Maserati zoomed out of the villa like a shooting star.
Suddenly, the sounds of urgent braking cut through the air. Finn stuck his head out of the window and shouted, “Old man, are
you blind?”
Outside the car, a scruffy old man showed a regretful expression.” You made it in time. Otherwise, I would’ve pocketed another
80 grand!”
“This ragged old guy looks like a professional scammer. Ken, go down and teach him a lesson!”
Finn could not be bothered to maintain his politeness . If someone dared to scam him, then they had picked the wrong target!
“Don’t waste time. Take me to the company quickly!” Hera said impatiently, voice choking.
Finn glared at the old man fiercely and spat. Then, he stepped on the gas and left.
The scruffy old man just hunched over and walked toward the park.
Inside the villa, Nash stood by the window, watching the scruffy old man. This guy was also at the Mystique Loyalty Realm. Why
would he come to Royal Bay to scam people?

After some thought, he could only come up with one possibility. Fabian had arranged for someone from Universal Group to
protect him.
After freshening up, Nash leaned against the bedside and called Fabian. He needed to confirm the identity of the scruffy old
man. After all, he was a Mystique Loyalty Realm expert. If he had any ill intentions, both Nash and his friends could be in danger.
It was currently nighttime in Moliga. Fabian was staying at a seaside villa area that belonged to the Universal Group. There were
a total of eight mansions here.
