My Substitute CEO Bride

"Mr. Weaver, Prime Herbs Herbal Company has just announced its decision to halt supplying the Weaver family with herbs!"

"Mr. Weaver, our company's products are currently under investigation. A good number of our sales counters are being attacked by an unknown party!"

"Mr. Weaver, there are claims that our health supplements are toxic, and those claims have gone viral!'

"Mr. Weaver, Empire Capital has just withdrawn all our company's capital..."

"Mr. Weaver, our stocks are plummeting like crazy as we speak..."

Weaver Group's conference room was in a state of utter chaos.

Dozens of calls, all bearing bad news about the Weaver family's fate, poured in.

Seth felt like he had been struck by thunder. His mind went blank.

How was that possible?

After all, the Weaver family was one of Capiton's second-tier elite families.

The fact that the Weaver family had managed to settle in Capiton spoke volumes about their power. Even a business enemy would not have been able to cause the Weaver family this much damage in just a couple of minutes.

"Investigate... Launch an investigation... Find out who dares do this to Weaver Corporation!"

Seth jumped out from his chair, his grip on his phone tightening so much that his screen cracked.

The Weavers had one of the Elite families supporting them from behind the scenes.

If one of the other Elite families were targeting them, they would be informed in advance.

Just then, someone whose name he had saved as 'Mr. Lamer' called him.

Seth jumped, then hurriedly answered the phone.

"Mr. Lamer..."

He was so nervous that even his voice was shaking.

"Seth Weaver, you idiot! What the hell are you doing in Jonford?!"

The sound of a man shouting angrily could be heard on the other end of the line.

"I-I'I just wanted to purchase the prescriptions for the products that Southern Heaven Pharmaceuticals launched recently!"

"Hah... What a wonderful idea you had... Did you bother finding out who's the brains behind Southern Heaven Pharmaceuticals before launching an attack against them?" Mack Lamer scoffed angrily.

Seth's voice trembled as he said, "I did... She's an entrepreneur who's just starting out!"

Mack drew in a deep breath before he launched into a tirade, "Do you not know that she's on extremely close terms with Olivia Lee? Do you know that Olivia is Theo Skye's wife? Let's not talk about that for now.

"Do you really think that she's a mere newbie entrepreneur, even after everything she's caused to happen in Jonford the past two months? How are you still clueless despite your age?"

Seth's eyes widened, and his body trembled violently as he said, "So... it's Mr. Skye who's targeting the Weaver family?" "What do you think?"

"But not even the Skye family is so powerful that they can utterly destroy us in just a couple of minutes, right?"

"Haha..."

Mack laughed soullessly, and he sounded like he was sneering as he said, "Calling you an idiot would be insulting to an actual idiot. Do you think their powers are limited by their ranking on the Elite Families' leaderboard?

"Why do you think the Skye family dared go up against the Kleins? And why do you think Theo could rub shoulders with people like Gabriel and Maverick?"

Seth felt like a bomb had just detonated in his mind.

He knew Theo had engaged in a business war with the Kleins, but he had no idea that he was also rubbing shoulders with Gabriel and Maverick!

"Mr. Lamer, does this mean that Mr. Skye is the brains behind Southern Heaven Pharmaceuticals?"

Seth's face had turned an ashy gray, and he was covered in a layer of cold sweat.

"The brains behind Southern Heaven Pharmaceuticals is someone so powerful that even Theo addresses him as 'Sir'. That's all I can tell you. You're on your own!" Mack hung up the phone after saying that.

If the previous piece of information had been a grenade, the last thing Mack said was like a bomb that blew Seth up beyond recognition.

He trained his bloodshot eyes on the young man holding his wife in his arms. His throat felt like an invisible hand was wrapped around it.

He finally understood why both Salvatore and Henderson had gone against Frances when summoned over by him.

Additionally, he also understood why Frances had been fired from the Sinopharm Office and why an investigation would be launched against him.
