Chapter 875
Spoiled by the President
Soon after Gregory received the text message, he sent someone over.
Vickie did not have to wait long before Harold came over.
He knocked gently on the door outside, and she walked over to open the door when she saw that it was him. Then, she passed him the bottle of essential oil.
Perhaps because she was in her pajamas and they were in a private place like her room, Harold kept his head down and did not look up at her much.
After receiving the bottle, he heard Vickie instruct him, âCheck its ingredients and tell me immediately after analyzing the results.â
Harold nodded and agreed softly before turning to leave.
Only then did Vickie shut the door.
After sending the item away, her heart was a little more at ease. She felt sleepiness set in as she lay down on the bed and soon fell asleep.
The next day, at breakfast, Gregory and Vickie were the only ones in the dining room. The two had a habit of not speaking when eating, so no one spoke at the table.
It was not until after the meal that Vickie said, âThereâs something I want to talk to you about.â
Gregory looked at her and slowly put down the teacup in his hand. âLetâs go to the study.â
Thus, she got up and pushed his wheelchair to the study.
After entering the study, she turned to close the door before sitting down on the sofa. She said, âWhen you were injured before, there was a period of time where things were too busy, so there was something I havenât been able to tell you.â
Gregory looked at her. âWhat is it?â
She took out the map he had drawn earlier and said, âThis map has the same pattern on that jade of yours. Andrea said she has seen it before.â
Gregory paused, slightly surprised.
In fact, besides him, even Vickie had been surprised when she first heard about it.
However, the man returned to his senses very quickly. His expression evened out after only a moment. He asked in a low voice, âWhatâs going on?â
Vickie shook her head. âI donât know the details. Didnât you give me a document to read on the day you set off for the neighboring city? When I was reading it, Andrea happened to come in and saw the picture on the file.
âAccording to her, she just thinks that the pattern on the jade in the picture looked familiar to her. She seems to have seen it somewhere before, but she canât remember where.
âI had doubts that maybe she was mistaken, but later, when we found out that the spy who was mixed among the guards also had that map on him, I knew that the pattern shouldnât only have been on one item.
âThere should be more than one person whoâs seen it, so it might not be impossible for Andrea to just happen to see it somewhere else.â
Gregoryâs brows furrowed deeply. He fell silent and did not speak, and Vickie knew that he was thinking about the possibility of this matter.
After a long time, he finally said, âShe still hasnât remembered yet?â
Vickie shook her head.
Gregory was quiet again.
Vickie said in a low voice, âWhat I mean is...should we send someone to check her hometown? I heard that after she graduated from school in her hometown, she came to work here after being introduced by an acquaintance. Sheâs young and hasnât been to many places, so we can check all of them and see if we find any clues.â
Gregory hummed. âWe can, but...â
He paused. Vickie raised her eyebrows and guessed, âAre you afraid of inadvertently alerting the enemy?â
Gregory nodded. He thought about it before saying, âDo you have this feeling that no matter what we do, what we find, and how we investigate, it seems like everything is in the palm of the other partyâs hand, and at the end of the day, weâll find that weâve just been going around in circles. Itâs like all these clues are just a smokescreen and we havenât actually found anything yet.
âIâm a little worried that this time will be the same as the previous times. It might look like weâre looking at clues, but in reality, we wonât be able to find anything but instead be walking in circles because of the other party.â
Vickie also frowned at his words. She said in a low voice, âYou might be right.â
After all, after so long, they had more or less figured the other partyâs habits.
Gregory looked at her, and she said after a while, âThen, letâs not look into it first. I can still trust Andreaâs character for the time being. Letâs wait a little longer and see if she remembers anything. If she does, then we might not have to look into anything else.â
Gregory nodded.
At this time, the door of the study was knocked on from outside, so Gregory called for the person to enter, and Harold came in after pushing the door open.
However, he only greeted Gregory upon seeing him and then walked towards Vickie instead.
âMiss Thomas, this is what you asked me to check last night. The results are out.â
Then, he respectfully handed her a report which Vickie took and read carefully.
Suddenly, Gregory had a wonderful feeling. They were like a big family in this chateau whereby he was the head of the family and Vickie was the mistress.
Some of those who used to take orders from him and needed him to oversee everything had been handed over to Vickie. The confidants who were loyal to him now served not only him, but also the mistress of the house.
Husband and wife. If they were both of the same mind, what could they not overcome?
At this thought, he could not help but smile slightly.
On the other hand, Vickie did not know what he was thinking. She was still absorbed in reading the report.
The report had detailed all the ingredients and effects of the Hundred Floral Oil.
No matter how she looked at it, she could not find anything wrong.
As Andrea said before, all the flowers had a calming effect, which were then refined and mixed together in different proportions.
Her eyebrows could not help but knit.
Was she...really overthinking it?
Gregory only received a text message from her last night asking him to send Harold over, but he did not know what for. At this time, he asked curiously after seeing the report in her hand. âWhatâs that?â

ï¤Chapter 487 The End Pt. 5 Vickie looked up and said, âOh, itâs nothing. Just an ordinary report.â
Then, she put the report away without any intention of letting him have a look at it.
Immediately after that, she took out the leftover bottle of Hundred Flora Oil that was left after the inspection and handed it to him.
âHere, itâs for you.â
Gregoryâs eyes lit up in pleasant surprise as he reached out to take it. âWhat is it?â
Vickie smiled. âEssential oil used for massage. It can soothe the nerves and improve sleep. Itâs very good. Try it out.â
