My Substitute CEO Bride

"Alright

then!"

Nash let go, looking slightly disappointed.

Tatiana could not bear seeing Nash's disappointment but still extracted herself from his arms. With her red lips pursed, she said, "Once the array is broken, I'll... I'll let you..."

Nash then recalled the last night being Tatiana's first and felt apologetic. "I'm sorry, I was the one who was abrupt with it."

"You continue studying the arrays. I'll build a house!" Tatiana picked up her backpack and water bottle before running away.

After that, Nash went back to studying the tome while Tatiana built themselves a shelter.

It was evening at Stonywood Village. Hera and Melody called Nash dozens of times but still could not get through to him. Lips curling, Melody said, "He probably went to handle his matters. Let's go back first." Hera pouted and whined, "Even if he wants to do his own thing, he should give us a call and tell us about it. Does he not know that we'd worry about him?"

At that, Adam tried speaking up for Nash, "Mr. Calcraft is very capable, and is now a country's official. Perhaps he's carrying out an urgent mission?"

Nash had helped him so much that he had to be on his side now.

Hera sighed. "You're right. I was just being too sensitive."

Adam hurriedly replied, "That's only because you care for Mr. Calcraft very deeply, Ms. Lewis!"

Hera smiled. "You've quite the way with words. It was definitely worthwhile for me to help you deal with those relatives whom you didn't even recognize back then." After chatting for a while, Hera and Melody returned to Jonford escorted by bodyguards.

...

At the Empire Hotel in Jonford, Euria and Lumi were dressed in their camouflage uniforms. Their luggage was packed.

Inside the room, Robin was currently reporting his results. The Dragon Soul Special Forces had recruited 3,120 members, but there were only 3,110 as ten people were late.

They had been assigned to be Hera's bodyguards. Since she was the wife of the commander of the squadron, he did not notify those people.

Lumi grinned. "I really didn't think you'd make it, but you actually completed the commander's task in two days."

Even the frosty Euria praised, "I didn't think you'd have such great appeal being the troop leader."Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

After the Dragon Soul Special Forces dispersed, the members scattered to all corners of the room.

When Nash had given Robin his command, Euria and Lumi thought the time limit had been too short and that he was trying to push the man over. Looking at it now, they were the ones who had

underestimated Robin's appeal.

"If there's a war, we'll be called back. All members of the Dragon Soul Special Forces must be on standby at any time!" Robin said loudly with his back straight. He did not expect members of the Dragon Soul Special Forces to be so resourcefutand quick.

He and Jasmine had been on the phone from the night before yesterday. Today, all of them arrived in Jonford.

The expenses of this meetup were significant. In addition to reimbursing various costs, a bonus of two thousand dollars was promised to each team member.

"Well done. Now gather all the members and head to Mount Dragonhid!" Lumi said as she packed a slim laptop into her computer bag, then slung on her camouflage backpack. She was ready to leave. Robin was startled. "Mount Dragonhid, isn't that a restricted area?" Euria gave him a look. "It's a restricted area for outsiders, but it's now open to us. From now on, Mount Dragonhid will be the Celestial Dragon Squadron's base."

Robin trembled with excitement.

Previously, their operations were conducted in the wild and their base was just a makeshift tent. Yet now, he could actually be stationed at the main base. "Aren't you going to start moving yet?" Euria frowned and barked.
