Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo Chapter 1209
“She has brought about destruction to the Seet Group. On top of how she’s harmed Nina, she should consider the damage that your grandpa committed toward her family being repaid in full. There’s no need for us to show mercy to her anymore!” Davin seethed.
Kyle’s eyes turned fiery red from fury. Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong.
He immediately instructed Jensen and the other three Hidden Masters to save Maya and Sophia in an attempt to outmaneuver Monica.
“Yes, I’ll head there right away.”
Then, he asked for a doctor to come to examine Nina. As expected, she was indeed poisoned. However, it was a chronic poison that would not take her life immediately. Instead, she would suffer as the poison ate away at her life.
“Doctor, does this poison have an antidote?”
“I need to figure out the ingredients of the poison to be able to come to a conclusion.”
The doctor drew Nina’s blood and rushed back to the hospital to analyze the sample.
Davin sighed as he looked at the pale-faced and bedridden Nina. “I never thought that Nina would be the one to suffer Dad’s repercussions.”
Kyle regarded Nina grimly without uttering a single word.
Was there a better way to solve the issue?
Sensing that Kyle was blaming himself, Davin turned to look at him and said, “This is what the Seets owe the Marstons. It’s just karma biting back at us. Don’t overthink the matter.”
Nevertheless, Nina shouldn’t have to suffer this. A pang of guilt hit Kyle.
He thought that his plans to let the Seet Group suffer from Monica’s revenge, and keeping her alive afterward was a way to resolve the grudge between the two families. However, he had not expected for things to take such a turn.
I should have heeded Murphy’s Law – anything that can go wrong will go wrong.
“All right, Kyle. Have faith that Nina will be all right.”
Still, Kyle’s expression did not ease as he kept quiet.
After an hour, Jensen called and reported that Monica was already under their control. Maya and Sophia were saved, and they were on their way back home.
“Great. Don’t let her get away. I’m on my way to meet her.”
“Yes, Mr. Kyle.”
Sophia, Jonathan and Maya were worried sick when they knew that Nina was poisoned.
“How did it all happen?” Jonathan asked incredulously.
“Dad, everything happens for a reason, and this time Nina is suffering the repercussions of your actions back then!” Davin peered at Jonathan and grumbled.
Jonathan blamed himself even more.
Sophia let out heavy sighs. “How is Nina doing?”
“Everything is still unclear as of now. The doctor said he needed to understand the poison first. I’m going to the hospital to see if he’s found out anything about it.”
“Okay. Just let us know any news as soon as possible.”
“Yeah, don’t worry.” Davin nodded his head and rushed to the hospital.
Tear-stricken Maya looked at Nina and cried, “I wouldn’t have let her leave if I knew what Monica was going to do to her. I should have been the one to leave. Nina wouldn’t have to suffer like this then.”
“Maya, you should not blame yourself for this! I did not know that Monica would be so vicious either. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have asked Nina to leave either.”
The two of them broke down in tears as they looked at Nina.
Sheila had gotten the news and came over to visit Nina as well. She was heartbroken to see Nina in such a state. After wiping her tears away, she started to console Maya and Sophia. “Nobody wanted this to happen but I have faith that Nina will pull through this.”
“She has to be all right. Otherwise, how are we going to explain ourselves to Evan and Nicole?”
“Grandma, should we ask Mommy and Daddy to come back?”
“We still don’t know if the poison has an antidote. It’s better to keep this news from your father and mother, especially since your mother is pregnant. She can’t afford to suffer such a shock.”
Maya nodded her head.
Meanwhile, on the other end.
Kyle shot a daggered look at Monica and demanded, “What did you inject Nina with?” His icy tone froze the place.
Monica held her head high stubbornly and was reluctant to divulge anything.
