My Substitute CEO Bride
Chapter 107
When Jupiter realized that he had bypassed the immediate chain of command, he quickly apologized, âIâm sorry, Chief, but time is running out and I had to come straight to you for permission!â
Nash snatched the phone from Jupiter and said, âChief Zunk, this is Nash. Brian was kidnapped and if I canât find him, I canât save the Wardenâs life!â
Henderson shuddered when he heard Nashâs voice.
The blood drained from his face when he heard that Brian had been taken.
The last part especially caused him to break out in cold sweat. âMr. Cal⦠Mr. Calcraft, I⦠Iâll make arrangements right away! Please pass the phone back to Chief Holt!â
Brian played a huge part in the Wardenâs life or death.
If anything were to happen to the Warden, then he would be held responsible.
Nash handed the phone back to Jupiter.
Henderson authorized Jupiter with the jurisdiction to transfer all the inspectors in Jonford as he wished.
When Jupiter had control, he immediately dispatched more than 300 inspectors to the Northern Suburb.
After what Nash said on the phone earlier, Jupiter and Angelicaâs expressions became more tense.
It seemed like⦠Nash and Brian were the Wardenâs doctors?
Jupiter got worried when he thought of the Wardenâs life. He said to the driver, âElliot, get to the Northern Suburb as fast as you can. Iâll report to the Ministry of Transportationâ¦â
At the Zell family villa.
Stellar was standing by Philixâs hospital bed.
He reached out and touched the Wardenâs forehead and found that his body temperature was lower than usual.
It had been roughly an hour since Nash had left.
Stellarâs heart was in his throat. âWhat the hell is this kid doing?â
He got up to walk outside and looked at everyone before asking, âHas Brian not returned?â
Henderson whispered, âColonel, something happened to Brian⦠Mr. Calcraft and the people from my inspection office are on the way to rescue him!â
Stellar slowly closed his eyes when he heard that.
At that moment, Zakariah said with a heavy tone, âColonel, I think we have to prepare for the worst!â
Stellar recalled that Father Lloyd had wanted to say something earlier.
He walked over to the marble table where Cillian and Lloyd were.
The two stood up and saluted, âColonel Orwell!â
Stellar looked at Lloyd. âYouâre a priest, right? Do you know the Art of Divination?â
Lloyd responded, âI know a thing or two!â
Stellar took a deep breath. âThatâs good, come help the Warden!â
Lloyd turned his head, looked at his younger martial brother, and said, âThe Warden is lucky, he will bring himself out of danger!â
Stellar continued to say, âI want a definite answer!â
Cillian and Lloyd hesitated.
After a moment of silence, Cillian turned to face the west.
âAt midnight last night, the General Star set in the west. The star represents the Warden!
âAt dawn, I looked at the sky again and saw that the General Star had not set completely, which means that the Warden still has a glimmer of life in him!â
Cillian wiped his eye with the fingers on his right hand.
His pitch-black pupils suddenly turned purple.
In the sky, a flickering sky seemed to be shaking.
In Cillianâs purple pupils, there were countless complex and obscure stars reflected in them.
After a moment, he turned to face the south and looked back up into the sky.
Stellar followed his gaze.
There was nothing but clouds in the sky.
Lloyd said, âColonel, my martial brother had opened his Third Eye. He can look into the universe as he wishes!â
In Cillianâs line of vision, the sky was full of stars.
In the Southâs sky, a blurry seven-colored star was slightly flickering.
He remembered that twenty years ago, his father introduced him to the seven-colored star.
He remembered that twenty years ago, his father introduced him to the Seven-colored Star when they were watching the galaxy.
He said that the Seven-colored Star was the Apocalyptic Star. Only Master Calcraft from Tili Mountain could bring the Apocalyptic Star into the Palace of Fate.
Cillian slowly closed his eyes. âTo save the Warden, you must call Master Calcraft from Tili Mountainâ¦â
