Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo Chapter 1243
“First off, I want you to clean every spot of Nepenthe Valley to show your intention.”
However, Levant was obviously unhappy about it. “We’re the guests, so don’t you think it’s inappropriate to ask us to do chores? Aren’t you just treating us as your maids?”
“So you’re unable to accept something as simple as this? If you can’t accept it, please leave right away!”
Seeing her determination, Levant was taken aback and looked toward Evan. As Evan was the one that needed the woman’s help, he was also the one making the final decision.
After thinking for a moment, Evan decided to go along with it. It was not a difficult task, and it was reasonable to do so for the detoxification of Nina.
“I can agree to this, however…” Evan lowered his eyes and stared at the two bodies on the ground. “Could you please give them the antidote?”
Crystal Rose looked toward the ground and answered, “No problem.” After saying that, she ordered someone to fetch the antidote tea and feed it to the duo. “You can ask your bodyguards to carry them to their rooms. They’ll awaken in a moment.” Then, the two were brought to their respective rooms.
True enough, the duo woke up groggily about half an hour later.
Davin was flabbergasted. “I remember myself losing consciousness and falling.”
“That’s right. You fainted.”
“Fainted? Why would I have fainted?” Confused, he mumbled to himself. “It must be Crystal Rose! Did she do something to me?”
When Levant saw how suspicious he was, he grinned. “No. She didn’t do anything to you. You just fainted suddenly.”
“Huh? Why would I suddenly faint without any reason?” Davin was filled with confusion.
Levant smirked. “You shot yourself on the foot. We were poisoned by the blood flowers when we passed by the garden. However, the tea given by the woman back in the wooden house was the antidote. You and Monica fainted because both of you were wary and did not consume it.”
So that’s the reason why? Davin was taken aback by his explanation.
He shot a curious look at Levant. “I was shocked that you and the others gulped it down without a second thought. Perhaps you knew that it was the antidote? If you did, why didn’t you tell me?”
“We didn’t know that. However, I had a feeling that Crystal Rose would not want to kill us without any reason. Even if she wanted us dead, she would meet with us first before going through with her decision.”
Davin was rendered speechless. You’re a smart one, huh?
After shooting Levant a look, Davin remained silent for a moment before asking, “Did Crystal Rose mention anything else to you? Did she agree to treat Nina?”
“She did! However, she had a condition on doing so.” Knowing that it would pique Davin’s interest, Levant continued explaining, “Which is to clean up Nepenthe Valley.”
“What? Cleaning up Nepenthe Valley?”
“That’s right. Your brother, the bodyguards, and Nina are hard at work. You should quickly go on and help them.”
Upon hearing that, Davin’s brows knitted together. I have no idea how to do house chores! After all, all of the housework in the Seet Residence were done by the maids. There was never a need for him to lift a finger.
“I don’t know how to clean!”
“Your brother said that you can learn it just by looking at them.”
Unable to refute, Davin stalled for time by complaining about feeling weak and wanting to rest for a while. After that, he plopped down onto the bed.
His actions exasperated Levant. Finally, Davin was only willing to climb out of bed and head to the garden after being called by Draven.
Evan and Nina were helping out there. Even Monica, who also fainted, had joined them. Thus, he had no choice but to follow them.
“Mr. Evan, you should leave everything to us instead,” Draven offered.
“I’m just here to monitor the progress, nothing more than that.”
