My Substitute CEO Bride

[I have recently found enlightenment in the depths of my contemplation. I need to go to the farthest reaches of the South Sea to break free from my restraints, and I don’t know when I will return.

[You have been cultivating on the mountain for over 15 years, and your divine skills have matured. Don’t let them go to waste.

[I am old friends with Herman Lewis of Jonford City. In the past, we had arranged a marriage contract for you with the eldest daughter of the Lewis family. Once you see this letter, you can head down the mountain to fulfill the marriage contract. Once you’re married, you must serve Mr. Lewis as you would serve me and not take this lightly!

[If your path to immortality is blocked, the Lewises can still guarantee a worry-free life for you…]

On the summit of Tili Mountain, Nash Calcraft looked at the letter left on the stone table with a pendant placed on top.

He had no parents and had been living with his master on the mountain to cultivate since he was young. The old man treated him like his own child.

Once his master broke through his restraints, it would be the moment of his ascension to immortality.

Nash did not expect that before leaving, his master would arrange for his life to be taken care of so clearly.

He felt a tingle in his nose, and tears welled up in his eyes.

Since his master had given him an order, he dared not disobey.

Hence, he packed his belongings, tidied up the courtyard once again, bowed three times, and walked toward the foot of the mountain.

…

In the dense forest of Tili Mountain, a figure moved as fast as lightning, flashing and maneuvering among the trees.

The figure leaped, light as a swallow, and landed on the mountain road.

Nash adjusted his clothes, not panting nor blushing, and looked up at the midday sun.

Although Tili Mountain was close to Jonford City, it would probably take until midnight for him to run there on foot.

Just then, a car came speeding from a distance.

Nash’s mouth curled up, and he stood in the middle of the road while waving his hands.

The sound of urgent braking echoed, and the car narrowly avoided hitting him.

The car door swung open, and an angry woman in a jacket stepped out.

Just as Nash was about to greet her, the woman angrily shouted, “Are you insane, standing in the middle of the road like this?! Do you want to die?”

Nash awkwardly explained, “Don’t get so angry, pretty lady. Are you going to Jonford? I’m hoping to hitch a ride.”

“Hitch a ride, my *ss. Get lost!” Skadi Zabel glared at him angrily.

“I really have an urgent matter to attend to and need a ride.”

Nash quickly took out a few crumpled bills from his pocket. “I can pay…”
