Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo Chapter 1246
âYou actually finished it?â
âYup. It tastes good.â
After hearing his brotherâs answer, Davin scooped a few leaves and slowly chewed them. Then, he swallowed it painfully with his eyes closed. It was as if he was consuming medicine instead of vegetables!
I firmly believe that Evanâs vegetables are different from mine. Next time, Iâll taste his first!
After breakfast, the group of people went to visit Crystal Rose to ask about their second task.
âYour second task is to let the two poisoned women pluck some flowers. Coincidentally, thereâs no sun today. Remember to pick the flowers soaked in morning dew.â
After pondering for a moment, Nina nodded. âOkay. Iâll head to it now.â
Monica nodded along with her.
As Monicaâs way of picking flowers was somewhat rough, the dew on the petals dribbled everywhere, causing Crystal Rose to scold her over it. After that, Monica started to pick flowers more gently despite cursing the woman angrily in her heart.
Meanwhile, Nina had plucked all the flowers with utmost care and put them in the basket as it was a precious gem, fearing to damage the petals.
Both of them finished picking half a basket of flowers. After that, they were only notified that the petals were used for their medication.
Looking at the mess in her basket, Monica deeply regretted her actions. I wonder if it would affect the effect of the medication? Darn you, Crystal Rose! Would it hurt for you to tell us earlier? I thought the flower was used to serve tea or other daily uses!
Then, Crystal Rose continued to cure them again. Two hours later, Nina had successfully detoxified another thirty percent of the poison. Immediately, her complexion seemed way better than before.
After Monica was detoxified, she checked herself in the mirror. I donât think that my complexion improved at all. Did the stupid witch only remove 20% of my poison and 60% for Nina?
She seriously suspected Crystal Rose had tampered with the detoxifying process.
Despite having doubts in her heart, she did not dare to inquire Crystal Rose about it. After all, her life solely depended on that woman, whether she liked it or not.
As the first two tasks were way too easy, the group figured the third task would be as well. Therefore, Davin and Levant sat by leisurely as Evan asked for the third requirement.
However, they did not expect Crystal Roseâs third condition to bring such a shock to them. It was evidently shown in Levantâs reaction, staggering back as he stared at her in shock. âWhat did you say?â
Crystal Rose slowly repeated her request, âIâm ordering you to kill Murphy!â Her tone was filled with malice.
Levant was silent for a moment before questioning, âWhich Murphy are you talking about? Where is he from?â Perhaps, there might be someone with the same name.
However, Crystal Rose shattered his hopes as she answered thoughtfully, âThe leader of K Nation, Murphy Morris.â
So sheâs really talking about my dad? How could that beâ¦
Levant recalled him confirming that issue with his father. However, his father made it clear he had nothing to do with Crystal Rose, not even knowing who she was. If that was true, why would she hold such a grudge against Dad?
âDo you really know who Murphy is? What grudge do you hold against him?â Levant continued to ask.
Crystal Roseâs facial expression turned bitter. âA jerk as heartless as him deserves to die! My hatred toward him can never be resolved, not even if he dies!â
Her words caused everyone to feel stunned.
Evan had gotten information that there was a history between Crystal Rose and Morris. However, he never expected a grudge to exist between them.
Davin whispered to Levant, âPerhaps did Uncle Morris lie to us? Maybe there really is something going on between him and Crystal Rose.â
âNo way. Dad didnât seem to be lying about it. Didnât you hear him?â
âThatâs weird. That woman seemed to hate your father a lot. If your dad is really speaking the truth, thereâs no way she would feel this way.â
