My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calcraft)

News of the fall of the Klein family sent shock waves through the nation.

Two other shocking events happened within the business sphere in the next three days.

The first event was that the Schmidts of Antaria publicly announced that Theo Skye was a direct descendant of their family. The Schmidts also used iron-fisted methods to destroy the other branches.

Humphery and his family packed up and went on the run.

Theo inherited control over the Schmidt family's businesses and combined them with Empire Capital. He used the Schmidt family's influence to turn it into the most powerful conglomerate in the country.

The second event was that Hera Lewis, the president of Southern Heaven Pharmaceuticals, listed the company on the market and took control over all of the Klein family's businesses.

Four days after the Klein family was wiped out, rumors began brewing in the business world, as well as among the families affiliated with the Klein family.

A small number of the families affiliated with the Klein family announced that Nash Calcraft-husband to the president of Southern Heaven Pharmaceuticals, Hera Lewis-was the commander of the Celestial Dragon Squadron. He wiped out the Klein family for the sole purpose of expanding his capital.

Once that news broke out, the State Capital immediately held a press conference.

Frederic Petro, a five-star general, took the stage to explain that the Klein family was suspected of treason and that both the Celestial Dragon Squadron and the Divine Strategy Squadron had received explicit permission from the State Capital to wipe out the Klein family.

Since the State Capital, which was the most powerful organization in the nation, had spoken up, the rumors were soon squashed down.

Of course, plenty of elite families shared information on all the crimes that the Klein family had committed.

Five days after the Klein family was wiped out, the Varhess family of Antaria posted an obituary.

A national moment of silence was held that day.

Countless people from the business and political spheres traveled to Antaria to attend Anton's funeral. Even the Sovereign himself traveled all the way to Antaria to pay his respects.

Nash and Hera spent three days in Jonford.

After attending Anton's funeral, the two paid a visit to the Schmidts.

Theo gave them a warm welcome.

Inside the Schmidts' mansion, Nash and Hera could be seen seated on the couch. Nash wore a well-tailored suit while Hera had on a black-colored coat and knitted scarf.

Theo and Wilcox sat facing them.

A housekeeper placed a pot of freshly brewed tea on the coffee table.

Nash said jokingly, "Wilcox, do you find it unfair that Theo has inherited the Schmidt family's business?" Theo gave Wilcox an awkward look.

He had spent so many years away from the Schmidt family while Wilcox had poured all his blood, sweat, and tears into caring for the Schmid family's business.

Yet, at the end of the day, their grandfather chose him to be the heir of the family business.

"Power should be given to those who are capable. Theo is much more capable than I am, and I'm not at all worried about the fact that he's in charge!" Wilcox picked up his teacup and took a sip of tea. No one could tell from the look in his dark orbs what emotions he was feeling. Cto think of it, he did find it unfair.

However, his grandfather had laid it all out for him. Theo could hold his ground against the Nihons, and it brought not just the Schmidts but the nation a great deal of honor.

Additionally, Theo had connectionsto Nash. The combination of Nash's influence at Southern Heaven Pharmaceuticals and the Klein family's powers meant they would be no less powerful than the Zunigas. Content belongs to en.kikistoriesIf Nash managed to acquire Universal Group, Southern Heaven Pharmaceuticals would end up becoming much more powerful than the Schmidts.

Besides, everyone knew just how powerful Nash was. If he could wipe out the Kleins, there was no doubt he could wipe out the Schmidts as well.

Even if the Schmidts had a Profound Oriental Realm expert residing with them, they would be no match for Nash either. If they wanted to make sure Nash remained on their side, The would have to be the patriarch. Content belongs to en.kikistoriesUMS Nash chuckled. "That's very open-minded of you!" He had managed to get a vague idea of what was going through the mind of Lennox Schmidt. All he could say was that the man was good at not losing sight of the bigger picture.

Wilcox turned to Theo and asked, "Have the Cherimans done anything recently?" Theo shook his head. "No. Yvette's sudden disappearance has made them too afraid to make any rash decisions!" Wilcox frowned. “Yvette is a hard-to-come-by business prodigy. How could she have disappeared without a trace? Do you think there's more than what meets the eye?" "I think Fabian Hughes has gotten his hands on her!" Theo said, a grin tugging on his lips.

"The Cherimans are a well-respectedfamily among the Nihons, and Yvette is an extremely influential figure among them, though. Not even Universal Group would be able to get their hands on her this easily, right?" Wilcox asked, his eyes narrowing. Content belongs to en.kikistories.com
