Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo Chapter 1258
Levant was stunned for a moment and went to look for Crystal Rose with his phone. She had said she was poisoned, but Murphy refused to admit it. Hence, he decided to let them confront each other to see if there was really such an incident.
Initially, Crystal Rose was puzzled when she saw him walking in. Before she could ask anything, he handed the phone to her and inquired, “Did he poison you back then?”
Once he finished his question, they heard Murphy’s voice from the other end of the phone. “I didn’t poison her…”
After so many years, she still could not help trembling the moment she heard that accursed voice that kept reverberating in her mind.
Immediately, she took the phone and cursed while gritting her teeth, “Murphy, you scoundrel! I gave birth to two children for you, but you were in an illicit relationship with Portia and were found out by me. Worried that I might hurt her, you poisoned me and wanted to kill me. What a brutal and heartless man! You should die a painful death!”
“Jordyn, what are you talking about? When did I poison you? Back then, Portia and I were drunk. I explained it to you, but you didn’t trust me and insisted on running away from home. Why are you saying that I poisoned you? No such thing happened!”
Hearing that, Jordyn was rendered speechless and sneered. “You won’t admit it? Too afraid to own up? What a coward!”
“I’ll definitely admit it if I did it, but you can’t wrongly accuse me of something I didn’t do.”
“I wrongly accused you? Back then, I was poisoned by Scelerus. If I hadn’t met the Scarlet Witch, I would be dead. It took three years for the poison to be completely removed from my body. Thank God that I’m still alive and have the opportunity to settle the score with you! Just you wait, Murphy! I’ll kill you one day!”
Murphy was taken aback when he heard what she said.
Scelerus? It’s indeed a type of poison from Wicked Palace, and it doesn’t sound like she’s making things up. Could it be that she was really poisoned back then? But I didn’t poison her! What the hell is going on?
“Why aren’t you saying anything? It’s because you can’t refute me, can you? You won’t get away with this! I’ll claim your life soon!”
Jordyn handed the phone to Levant with a shaking hand after she finished speaking.
She was emotionally unstable, and if Murphy was in front of her right now, she would definitely do her best to kill him at all costs.
Seeing her distress, Levant was convinced that she was not spouting nonsense. She truly had been poisoned back then.
Shortly afterward, he glanced at the phone, saw that it was still connected, and stated, “Dad, I didn’t expect you to do such a thing. You actually poisoned a woman, the woman who gave birth to two children for you. You’re too ruthless!”
“Levant, I didn’t poison her. Jordyn, even if you were really poisoned, it wasn’t me. I know nothing about it. If you hadn’t brought it up today, I wouldn’t have known about it.”
Upon hearing that, Crystal Rose blurted out emotionally, “Stop denying it! Who else knows where the poison is kept in Wicked Palace except you?”
Needless to say, Murphy found it strange as well. Who else could get their hands on Scelerus and poison my wife?
“Jordyn, Levant, I’ll investigate this matter and give you an explanation.”
“You’d better not be lying about the truth. Otherwise, I’ll never forgive you!” enunciated Levant coldly before hanging up the phone.
Looking at him, Crystal Rose wanted to say something, but he left before she could utter a word.
“Levant! Levant, Le—”
At that moment, Levant felt conflicted. Before he found out what exactly happened, he had no idea how to face Crystal Rose.
He just wanted to be alone so he could clear up all these past incidents and figure out how to face each one of them.
