Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo Chapter 1213
“What kind of man do you like?”
“Aunt Sheila, I have no idea either. I’m going to head back to my room then.”
Sheila sighed as she noticed Nina’s face sank.
She must be thinking about Chris, and how there was no chance of them working things out.
“Chris is such an idiot. How does he not like Nina? Is he blind or what? I sure hope he’s scammed by somebody, or—”
“Sheep, what are you rambling on about? Have you been scammed by someone?”
“You!”
“Me? We’re man and wife. You cannot curse me like that. Besides, how does me getting scammed benefit you in any way?”
“Hopefully your brain is going to get smarter after getting scammed by somebody. Actually, the fact that you can stop hanging out with those good-for-nothing friends will benefit me so much more!”
Speechless, Davin gave her an incredulous look. Just when he was thinking of how to refute her, Sheila changed the topic and asked him something out of the blue.
“Davin, have you ever mentioned that Chris has once saved you because of Nina? Do you think there’s a chance that he likes her?”
“Why do you bring him up all of a sudden. Besides, why would I know if he has any feelings for Nina or not?”
“I talked to Nina yesterday and I noticed that Nina still has feelings for him. If the feeling is mutual, then… he might be able to fulfil one of Nina’s wishes.”
“What wish?”
“I’m not going to tell for the time being. I’m going to send someone to investigate what Chris is doing.” Then, Sheila got up to head upstairs to make a call.
Davin’s brows creased. Sheep, why do you keep doing things on a whim?
The Hidden Masters reported their findings to Kyle the next day in the afternoon.
“Mr. Seet, you asked us to investigate how Monica was poisoned. We’ve found out about it. Here is some detailed information about it. Please take a look.”
Darius handed over the information to Kyle. Much to the latter’s surprise, Monica was also injected with the poison, and by a man, no less.
A man whom she loved.
Kyle was quite surprised to find out about it.
He read through the report word by word, and his expression turned grim as the pages turned.
Monica was a pitiful and vengeful woman with extreme measures. Kyle thought she must have behaved the way she was because she had never experienced the warmth of family. Her lack of sense of security had led her to resort to extreme measures to protect herself.
However, the woman whom she fell in love with was really mediocre at best. The man had injected her with the poison as a revenge.
Kyle could not help but lament at their twisted fate.
“Find out where her boyfriend is right now, and question him on the origin, as well as the antidote to the poison.”
“Yes, Mr. Seet.”
The Hidden Masters left, and Kyle decided to visit Nina.
He headed out of the study and noticed that Nina’s door was shut tight.
Maya walked out of her room and whispered to Kyle, “Maybe the poison in her body is making her feel really lethargic. Don’t wake her up. Let her sleep for a while.”
“Okay, Maya. You need to keep close tabs on her. Let me know right away if anything happens.”
“Sure.”
Then, they noticed Davin and Sheila heading out of their rooms. The two of them were discussing about Chris.
Kyle knew nothing of the man, but Maya knew everything there was to know about him.
“Aunt Sheila, Uncle Davin, are you guys talking about the man whom Nina has a crush on?”
“Maya, let me ask you this: Has Nina ever mentioned him to you? Does she still like Chris?” Sheila asked.
Maya thought for a moment and shook her head. “No.”
Davin then lamented. “Some things are better left unsaid. The more she is reluctant to bring him up, the more likely she still has feelings for him.”
