My Substitute CEO Bride
Chapter 597
She would forever remember how difficult of a person Helena was to
deal with.
Helena had turned over a new leaf now. However, she could not get
used to it.
âItâs alright, Maria⦠Please allow me to do a little something so I feel
more at ease staying at my sisterâs place and mooching off her!â
Helena continued mopping the floor after saying that.
She had not regained all her strength yet. Within minutes of working,
she began sweating profusely, and her hands were trembling.
Nash walked downstairs and said, âYou and Hera are cousins. Treat
this place as your home. You should rest up and focus on regaining
your strength. Would you want Kai to have to take care of you when he regains consciousness?â
Helena had indeed turned over a new leaf.
That pleased Nash immensely.
Mr. Lewis, who was watching them from the heavens, would probably
be proud too.
Maria took the mop from Helena and smiled as she said, âListen to
Nash and go rest!â
Helena pursed her lips together. âThank you for your kindness!â
She lowered her head to Maria as she spoke.

That frightened Maria so much that she did a little jump. âMy
goodness, what are you doing? Iâm going to lose a couple years of my
life!â
Helena turned to Nash and lowered her head to him as well.
Nash shook his head and chuckled at Helenaâs antics before he left
for the Inspection Office.
As his cab pulled up at the inspection office, he bumped into Jupiter
and Angelica, who were bringing Horace back with them.
Jupiterâs face was bruised, while Angelicaâs hair was messy.
Horace had an absent-minded smile on his face.
The rest of the vehicles held over a dozen of Horaceâs employees.
Angelicaâs eyes lit up when she saw Nash. âNash, youâre here too!â
When Nash saw the scratches on Angelicaâs neck, he frowned and
asked, âWere you guys attacked?â
Angelica said gleefully, âWhoever dares provoke us will always end up
being on the losing side. We managed to defend ourselves
successfully, and theyâll have to be detained for a couple of days
Nash reached out and plucked out an old toothpick from Angelic
hair.
Angelicaâs dimples appeared as she smiled. âThank youâ¦â
Jupiter walked over with Horace.
Horace had a gloomy expression on his face as he said, âChief Holt,
Chapter 597
youâve already checked the bar and my home. Are you still not going to release me?â
Jupiter replied calmly, âWhatâs the rush? It hasnât even been 24 hours!â
Horace sneered. âFine, youâll be receiving a letter from my lawyer,
then!â
He would kick up a big fuss and make sure everyone knew he had
been arrested.
These two had to pay.
Horace was put in the holding cell.
Jupiter summoned a meeting with everyone on the task force.
Meanwhile, Nash found Hera and the others, who were in the rest
area.
When Hera saw Nash, she immediately jumped to her feet and hugged him as she sobbed, âWhat are you doing? Did I wake you up?â
She had not dared call Nash because she knew he was asleep.
The past two days had been exhausting for him, and she did
it in her to wake him up.
have
âNo, you didnât wake me up. I was already awake!â
Nash hugged Hera and spoke to her comfortingly.
He found Loriâs death a pity as well.
He was here at the Inspection Office so that he could find out who
was responsible for her death.

âStay here and get some rest. Iâll go get myself updated on the
evidence available for this case!â
Nash gave Hera a forehead kiss.
Hera nodded as she wiped the tears from her eyes.
Melody and Nash went into the room where Jupiter was hosting the
meeting.
Jupiter referred to Angelicaâs notes as he listed out everyone involved
in the case on the whiteboard.
âOur victim, Lori Lynch, is Horace Soloâs girlfriend!
âSuspects, Geordi Warren and Sorn Hirst, are Horaceâs childhood
friends. Both men are married with children.
âWe currently donât know where Geordi and Sorn are, but we need to find them as quickly as possible! Also, we need to comb through the hospitalâs records on their recent sperm donors.
âContinue combing through the scene, and make sure no stone goes unturned. Itâd be best if we could find the murder weapon.â
When Jupiter finished his announcements, he walked over to the table to grab his cup so he could get himself water from the cooler.
A man in his 40s said, âHorace is the companyâs founder, and heâs an extremely shrewd and cunning person. This case would become much easier if we manage to find Geordi and Sorn!â
Another person turned to Angelica and asked coolly, âDid you really think Salvatore Smith would send his men to the Inspection Office?â
