My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 2726

"Actually, you don't have many options to choose from. Daryl, look who has arrived," Royce said.

Daryl turned to follow Royce's finger. It was their junior, Clarissa Mast.

"Clarissa, what are you doing here?" Daryl asked, puzzled.

Clarissa shook her head. "It's no use, Daryl. None of this matters anymore. If we keep going like this, neither of us will end up with anything good."

Daryl felt an overwhelming rage inside him. "What do you mean by that?"

At that moment, Royce interrupted, "Alright, we can talk about pleasantries later. Daryl, I've told you before, some things are much more important than the magma core. Clarissa chose something, and I helped her achieve it. Now, you should fulfill your own agreement.

"The master passed the other half of the Heaven-Destroyer Magma to Clarissa, and she abandoned her martial background and powers for that guy with the surname Kinley.

"You had an agreement. As long as Clarissa wants to reclaim her powers, you can't complain."

Royce then looked at Clarissa.

"Alright, go on. Tell him what you want," said Royce.

Clarissa said with a trembling voice, "Daryl, please give me back my powers… I…"

Daryl stared blankly at Clarissa. "Don't you know what Royce has done?"

She answered quietly, "I do…"

"Then why are you helping him?!" Daryl suddenly shouted. "The master wanted to split the power in half to prevent anyone from using it for selfish reasons! Royce is a scoundrel! He constantly seeks personal gain. What would the master think if he knew?

"He sold the ritualistic weapons created by the magma core to ordinary people! Ordinary people! And they died! You know that, right? I don't understand! Why? Why are you helping him?"

Clarissa fell silent. Meanwhile, Royce felt some disdain at Daryl's words.

"But… Mom…" Wrendell hesitated, but Scathach pulled him away.

The two then quickly ran in the opposite direction.

Wrendell still felt uneasy. "Scath! What about Mom?"

Scathach reassured Wrendell that their mother also had a martial arts background, so the average martial artist should…

Before Scathach could finish her sentence, a dark shadow suddenly appeared behind them. It seemed something had been thrown their way.

The Sharpe siblings looked closely and were shocked to see that it was their mother!

Their mother had her legs broken and was violently thrown against the wall. Immediately after, Royce and the others arrived, drawn by the commotion.
