My Substitute CEO Bride
Chapter 36
The delivery manâs voice was hoarse.
Nash had guessed who this person was.
He loosened his foot and calmly said, âYouâre Hannahâs brother-in-law, right?â
Freed from the constraint, the delivery man immediately picked up the sharp knife from the floor and swung it toward Nashâs
throat with a backhand.
Nash extended two fingers and clamped the blade, applying slight force to break it into two.
Blinded by hatred, the delivery manâs mind was clouded. He had no time to consider these details. All he knew was that he wanted to kill the people in this house to avenge his son.
Veins were bulging on his forehead as he fiercely grabbed Nashâs neck. âIâm going to kill all of you Lewisesâ¦â
Nash grabbed both of the delivery manâs wrists and held them apart while saying, âIâm not even a Lewis. Will you please calm down?!â
Hearing this, the delivery manâs grip weakened, and the ferocity on his face gradually faded. âWho⦠Who are you?â
Nash closed the door and calmly replied, âMy name is Nash Calcraft.â
The delivery person released his hands and turned around to explore the house.
Finding that. Hera was not there, he approached Nash and asked, âWho are you, and why are you in Hera Lewisâ place?â
âIâm Heraâs fiance!â
Nash answered.
The delivery manâs face turned cold, and he clenched his fist, ready to attack again.
Nash, no longer indulging him, directly punched him and sent him sprawling to the ground.
âWith this level of ability, do you really think you can avenge your son? The Lewises have bodyguards around them, and any one of them can knock you down and make you lose all your teeth!â
Even without his protection, Hera could simply end Skadiâs vacation early.
And even without Skadi, she could hire a few capable bodyguards from a security company.
The man before Nash was in his 30s and extremely weak. Any slightly stronger man could easily defeat him, let alone professionally trained bodyguards.
Hearing Nashâs mockery, the delivery man pounded the ground and cried in pain, âIâm useless⦠Iâm so useless⦠I canât even avenge my son!â
âFind solace in your grief. That car accident had nothing to do with Hera!â
Nash said, his tone softening slightly.
The delivery man looked up at Nash, tears flowing as he asked, âDo you know who killed my son?â
âI have no idea!â
Nash replied very simply.
The delivery man let out a miserable smile. âIf only I had known, I wouldnât have taken that money. It was the price for my
sonâs life!â
Hearing this, Nash furrowed his brows. âWhat money? Who gave you money?â
The delivery man said, âPeople from the Lewis family. They gave me a large sum of money and said they could get my son into the best school in Jonford but on the condition that my sister-in-law helped them with somethingâ¦â
Nash squinted his eyes and asked, âWhat did the person who approached you look like?â
The delivery person shook his head. âHe was wearing a mask, so I couldnât see his face clearly, but I heard the voice of an old man!â
âAny other distinctive features?â Nash hurriedly asked.
âI think he had a mole at the corner of his eye!â
Cain Lewis?
The image of Cainâs face as he mocked and taunted him was etched in Nashâs mind.
Cain had a small mole at the corner of his eye.
It was difficult to notice because its color matched his skin tone, but the delivery man must have wanted to remember the person who helped him, so he took a closer look.
Cain had given money to Hannahâs brother-in-lawâs family.
Then, he persuaded them to convince Hannah to do something for him.
Later, he used the excuse of withered plants in the garden to reprimand Hannah.
On the way to the garden, Herman gave Hannah a vial of medicine and a syringe, instructing her to inject the medicine into the old man.
Having served the Lewises for over 20 years, Hannah did not dare to act. However, her brother-in-lawâs family had already accepted the bribe, and she was afraid that if she did not do as Cain said, her brother-in-lawâs family would be implicated.
This explained why Hannah was gloomy and absent-minded in the next few days that followed.
