My Substitute CEO Bride

Chapter 234

Smiling, Brian explained, “Miss Zabel’s high fever is caused by the components in the medicine. It won’t have any effect on her body.”

He had never heard of or seen the prescription his grandmaster had prepared before, but what was certain was that it was absolutely priceless. It was a medicine good enough to bring the dead back to life.

Seeing Hera’s haggard face, Bianca said softly, “Hera, why don’t you go back to rest too? You can leave Skade to me.”

Hera was the president of a company and was much busier than her. It would be more appropriate for her to take care of Skade than Hera.

Hera shook her head and replied, “I’m fine. I’ll rest here tonight.”

Skadi was her best friend. She feared nothing if it was for her. She had always wanted to do something for Skadi but never found the opportunity to. The only time she managed to help her was by asking the Smiling Grim Reaper for his number, for which she got scolded.

Now that Skadi was injured, she was naturally worried.

“Strange, Justin’s been gone for so long. Why isn’t he back? He isn’t answering his phone either. Could something have happened?” Zakariah muttered worriedly.

The moment he said that, they heard fighting outside.

Everyone in the room immediately went outside, only to see a few of the Hero Martial Arts School students on the ground. Among them stood a man in black with a smiling mask on his face.

Zakariah immediately reprimanded, “Stand down!” Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

They had asked Justin to pretend to be the Smiling Grim Reaper but had neglected to inform the students standing guard outside the gates. Hence, trouble occurred.

A young student stood up while clutching his chest and said, “Master, this man knows the Palm Punches Technique.”

“All of you stand down!” Zakariah said again, dumbfounded.

Justin was pretending to be the Smiling Grim Reaper, so, of course, he would know that technique.

One after another, his students retreated.

The Smiling Grim Reaper made his way toward the living room of the villa. He even scratched his butt in an indecent manner while he was walking over.

Zakariah saw this and gave him a hard look. “Be a little more cold-blooded in front of Skadi later!”

The Smiling Grim Reaper nodded and then followed Zakariah to the second floor. He almost tripped going up the stairs.

Flushed with shame, Bianca asked, “This guy is too unreliable. Will he really be able to trick

Skadi?”

Hera looked puzzled. “It feels certain that he might be the Smiling Grim Reaper.”

Surprised, Bianca asked, “Why do you say that?”

Hera then explained, “I met the Smiling Grim Reaper at the Lees’ residence. I also helped Skadi track down his contact information. I was very close to him at the time. His cold gaze is definitely not

something anyone can imitate.” Hera smiled and said nothing more.

On the second floor, Skadi was looking at the ceiling in a daze. She kept repeating in her mind the scene where Father Cillian had been feeding her the medicine and was almost drooling. “Skade, the Smiling Grim Reaper has come to see you!”

Skadi quickly closed her eyes when she heard her grandfather.

The door opened, and Zakariah whispered, “Pretend just a bit.”

The Smiling Grim Reaper walked into the room.

Skadi slowly opened her eyes. When she saw her other idol, her heart beat violently again.

She was so happy! Just so, so happy!

First, it was Father Cillian; now, it was the Smiling Grim Reaper.

The two most exceptional men in her heart had come to visit her. Her accident was so worth it!

The Smiling Grim Reaper came to the front of Skadi’s bed and looked at her.

His gaze was so cold, yet he wore a smiling mask. It almost looked like there was a blade hidden in that smile. He was like a real Grim Reaper that harvested life amidst laughter.

Skadi gulped and asked, “Can… can you hug me?”

The Smiling grim Reaper flicked his wrist, and a scarlet diamond-shaped dagger appeared in his hand.

Skadi quickly shuddered. “I-I was joking…’

The Smiling Grim Reaper shook his head helplessly and then went toward the window. He pushed it open and jumped straight out.

“Hey! Can’t you just stay a little longer?”

Skadi sat up on the bed all of a sudden and immediately felt pain shoot through her head and internal organs before laying back down again.

Anger appeared on Zakariah’s face.
