My Substitute CEO Bride

Sterling nodded and continued, "Those entities seem to also be products of godly power. While we can't yet determine their exact strength, we can be sure that there are a significant number of them."

Puelo jotted down the information in his notebook.

"Alright, next... Avery, what do you have?"

Avery pulled out a white, radish-like object from his leather jacket pocket.

"This is a radish, a daily staple in the cafeteria. While I've been working there, I noticed that while the food has varied greatly recently, this radish remains the same every day."

"So?"

Helio sat up at that moment, intrigued.

"Yes! That's it!"

"Helio, please explain."

Avery handed the radish to Helio, who swallowed it. His body immediately reacted to the radish, causing him to regurgitate it almost instantly.

Avery continued, "The reason the production staff don't feel exhausted is because the radishes are actually products with a high concentration of godly power."

Sterling was astonished. "Godly power?"

"You mean to say they're turning godly power into food?"

Avery nodded.

Sterling said, "Helio's reaction is proof. Helio has what is known as the Godly Power of the 12 in him that repels all other forms of godly power."

Still recovering from the radish, Helio confirmed, "Exactly. This means that all the lower-level employees are consuming godly power every day."

"Consuming godly power every day..." Mallory was visibly unsettled. "Not only is there the issue of quantity, but the human body also repels godly power. Those employees' bodies must be terrible state by now."

"That's what I've gathered so far," Avery said, returning to his seat next to Mallory.

Puelo took notes and then turned to Mallory. "And you, Mallory?"

Mallory pulled out her phone. "I found some documents similar to the Illuminion's merger scheme. Take a look."

The group gathered around to examine the documents.noveldrama

Puelo said comparing his notes with the documents, "Yes, that's correct. These are all companies that have been absorbed... The next one is... Mica Commercial Development Company.

"Mica, I've looked into him as well. He's currently one of the most influential rich second-generation figures in Gorgeous Country. If he and his company join Brightstate, it could mean that 20% of the assets would flow into the Illuminion's hands."

"If that is the case... Helio, come here," Puelo said.

"Here's your task," he continued, giving Helio a significant look.

Helio's eyes lit up. "As long as it's not working in that dark, endless production department, I'm up for anything."

Puelo smiled. “Good. You'll be responsible for protecting and monitoring Mica. Is that acceptable?"

Helio nodded vigorously. "Absolutely. Puelo, you're like a savior to me. I can't thank you enough."

After organizing the intelligence, the group turned their attention to the monitor, which displayed real-time footage.

Everyone anxiously watched the feed on their phones.

Soon, a figure appeared on the screen.
