Chapter 828

Spoiled by the President

Ginny spoke cautiously, “Don't say that Miss Lynch, the Young Master cares about you too. When he heard you were poisoned, he ordered a full-

blown investigation of the chateau!”

However, this was one of the rare occasions that Ginny did not hear a response.

Yuliana thought it was impossible that he was doing any of it for her.

As before, the whole thing was aimed at Vickie.

All she did was take a bullet in her place by stealing her soup.

If Gregory really cared, why was he not here when she woke up?

In fact, besides Ginny, not a soul was in the room; not even Mr. Osborne.

For the first time in her life, Yuliana now felt that the room was too large and empty compared to how, usually, she felt the rooms were too small.

Everything seemed hollow and it made her feel worse.

However, she decided to mask all her sadness and emptiness.

Yuliana turned to Ginny and said, “I’m alright now, don't cry. I’m a little hungry, so please fetch me something to eat.”

Ginny nodded. “Right away, Miss Lynch.”

Since Yuliana just had her stomach pumped, she could not eat much. What she could eat was just half a bowl of plain porridge from the kitchen.

Although she was never considered extremely rich growing up, she was still considered relatively wealthy, so never had she eaten something so plain before.

Out of habit, she frowned out but held her tongue and obediently ate the porridge with no protests.

On the other hand.

Vickie had been sitting in her room since after lunch.

She knew that the poison was targeted towards her.

Yet despite that, she barely had any reaction to the whole fiasco as she had long accepted that someone was out to kill her and it felt like just another day in her life.

Eat, sleep, rinse, repeat.

That caused some of the maids in the chateau to see her as “weird’.

Only Vickie herself knew that she was perfectly normal.

She was admittedly quite taken aback since she had been thinking that the other side would not make any moves. However, she did not think that they had already set the traps and it had reached as far as inside the chateau.

At this point, she had two questions.

One, who was behind the poisoning this time? Which party was it?

Second, how did they do it? What or who did they use?

Since the incident, Gregory had first interrogated the guards.

As for the kitchen, where many people use the place, several other people had also gone near the pot while it was boiling other than Reina.

Not to mention that if someone was out to poison her, it might not have been from the soup either.

It could have very well been in the bowl, the water used to make the soup, or the dry ingredients. All of the above would provide the same outcome.

Thus, to figure out the source was a huge challenge.

Right now, even finding the culprit was coming up empty, let alone figuring out which party was behind it.

However, it was not a complete loss.

Since arsenic is so potent, it almost killed someone perfectly healthy like Yuliana.

Vickie, on the other hand, was still recovering and might not have survived a stomach pump. She deduced it was likely the party that wanted her dead — the same ones who ran her over with a car. They were violent.

The second party clearly wanted to capture her alive.

Quite a substantial amount of time had passed but Vickie still had no idea who the people were.

No matter, they seemed to be getting impatient, so they would reveal their identities sooner or later.

Only then did Vickie calm down a little. She then asked Andrea to come in and push her to Gregory.

As expected, no matter how much she thought about it, she still needed Gregory.

If it was not for this poisoning incident today, she still could have carried out her original plan, Had Vickie decided to stick to her plan and head out alone now that the other party had made their move, it would come off as suspicious.

Besides, it was obvious that today was a day for couples to head out together.

The town would be full of couples. Since Gregory went out early in the morning, she thought that it would fool the other party into thinking that he went out on business and so he did not accompany her.

That way, her going out alone would make sense.

However, now if Gregory stayed in the castle alone while she went out, the plan would fall apart.

If they were going out, he would definitely go out with her.

For Gregory to leave her alone outside would not make sense.

Vickie needed him to make the plan work.

What surprised her was that before she set out to find him, she already spotted him in the corridor that connected the main building and the secondary building.

She took a look at his face, and it was stoic as ever. He was expressionless.

It was as if the incident from this morning was of no concern to him.

Vickie mulled it over but figured the overall situation was still more important.

She decided to abandon her unnecessarily petty feelings and stop giving him the cold shoulder or throw any tantrums.

Thus, she pushed her wheelchair over and said boldly, “Gregory, I need to talk to you.”

It was no coincidence that he was also in the vicinity.

Gregory nodded. “That works, I needed to talk to you too.”

This was no coincidence.

Andrea, who was standing behind them, could not help but sigh.

With all that fuss over Yuliana, they had been sleeping on the fact that this was the true power couple that mutually understood each other and were in sync.

When other people were around them, they felt like an extra cast.

Andrea was not stupid. She knew to stand to the side when Gregory appeared as she did not want to become their third wheel.

Gregory had also very naturally walked behind Vickie and pushed her wheelchair for her.

She secretly sighed.

When would this broken body of hers fully heal?

According to the doctor, it would be another two months.

She could have done so much in two months.

If it was not for the fact that she ended up in this situation, she would not have chosen to stay in the chateau all the time for safety.

Based on her temper, Vickie would likely have left a long time ago and charged into the lion’s den without a care in the world, killing whoever she could.

Sadly, she could not do that right now.

She had to refrain from being too willful. It was not because she was afraid of death, no, it was because if she died then who would avenge Jennie?

Vickie lived because Jennie traded her life for it.

Her only relative, her precious baby sister, died in the prime of her life because of her.
