My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 1822

Less than ten seconds had passed after that phone call before a dozen guards burst into the room, each holding a gun in their hands. All of them aimed their pitch-black barrels at Nash.

Colby roared, “This man is an assassin sent by foreign forces. I command you to execute him instantly!”

The guards released the safety pin and pulled the trigger on their guns with a moment’s hesitation.

Everyone in City Hall was startled when the gunshots rang out.

Inside the break room, Drew and Cobalt immediately shot to their feet and sprang to stand in front of Kaden protectively.

Tristan had a rueful look on his face. “Nash is probably the reason why a shooting occurred in City Hall, right?”

An ugly look appeared on Kaden’s face. “Go find out what happened… Never mind, I’ll go look for myself!”

Gunshots had never rang out within City Hall’s walls since its establishment.

Worry washed over Kaden as he walked toward the door of the break room.

Drew and the others hurried after him.

Inside the governor’s office, the dozen guards inside stared at Nash, flabbergasted.

All the bullets they had shot had been fended off by an invisible barrier.

Colby’s face turned as pale as a sheet of paper as he said in a horrified voice, “He’s a martial artist. You’ll need to use specialized weapons!”

Upon hearing that, three of the guards immediately retrieved the specialized weapons designed to fight martial artists from the leather pouches fastened to their waists.

These were products patented by the Military Research and Development Center, and they could effectively shatter a martial artist’s true energy shield.

However, they only worked against those who had lower levels of cultivation.

Just as the three were about to fire the specialized laser guns, a roar rang out. “Stop this instant!”

Kaden stormed into the room, a furious look on his face as he swept his stern gaze over the guards. “Such bravado from all of you. How dare you shoot the commander of the Celestial Dragon Squadron?”

“C-Commander of the Celestial Dragon Squadron?”

The chief guard shuddered and nearly dropped his gun despite having years of training under his belt. The other guards also felt terror wash over them, and their hearts began pounding.

Munford and Antaria had gone through so much development that they practically were as well-developed as Capiton was now.

Capiton was where the Ten Families had set their roots.

There was no doubt that Capiton was in its current state as a result of Colby resting on his laurels and doing nothing. Colby enjoyed flaunting his power as well, and no one was spared from him.

He was going to get a lesson taught to him today, though.

However, few people could actually cause any harm to Colby since he had the Petro family’s power backing him up.

Colby collapsed onto his chair, all the wind knocked out from him.

Nash Calcraft, commander of the Celestial Dragon Squadron.

The Mares’ son-in-law was Nash Calcraft.

As the governor of Capiton, he was familiar with Nash’s name. However, he did not know Nash was the Mares’ son-in-law.

Who would have thought that Nash Calcraft, commander of the Celestial Dragon Squadron, would be a young man in his early 20s?
