CEO’s Mysterious Fiancée By Piper Dunlap Chapter 34
CEO's Mysterious Fiancee
The Diamond Necklace You Killian thought, what! He was doing that purposely Then Paige chipped in with a faint smile, âThere is no need to add any more medicine to it. It is just that you canât drink alcohol anymore.â
âAll right.â
âPaige has a point.â Killian nodded.
âMrs. Stowe, I will take good care of Mr. Stowe in the futureâ Neil nodded.
âJust call me Paige,â Paige, helplessly, corrected him.
âNo. I canât call you by your name!â
âBut it was you who plotted with Killian so as to make Killian be able to drink his alcohol, right?â Martin smiled and changed the topic âI promise I wonât do that again.â
âOh, right!â
Then something came across Killianâs mind, who then took out an exquisite small wooden box and opened it, revealing a beautiful necklace with a crown shaped pendant.
âThis is Rosaâs favorite item among all her dowries back then. She asked me to give the necklace to the girl who Martin brings back to the family.â
The crown was made up of 999 top-grade diamonds, which made it look extremely beautiful.
Paige knew that the necklace was famous all over the world in the past because of the diamonds and its designer, which cost them a good 300 million dollars to make the necklace.
And now, it was worth far more than that price.
âI canât accept such a valuable gift Then Killian interrupted, âThis is a gift Rosa wants to give to Martinâs wife. You have to accept it! If she is here now, I believe she would have already put it on for youâ¦â
As Killian was speaking, the mention of Rosa Garcia, Martinâs grandma, saddened him.
Noticing that the light in Killianâs eyes had dimmed, Paige turned to look at Martin.
âA few years ago, Rosa had a car accident. She was reduced to a vegetative state because of that,â
Martin explained calmly Although Rosa was alive, she couldnât do anything.
She couldnât move, talk, or feel pain.
They had invited countless famous doctors. But none could do anything about Rosaâs condition.
âMartin put it on for Paige.â
Noticing that Paige refused to accept it, Killian handed the box to Martin and muttered, âI donât know how much longer I can be alive to watch you walk down the aisle. I felt that I was dying several times. If it were not for Rosa..â
Page was toured upon hearing this Ahihi. Killian, Let s not talk about this today while Mrs. Stowe is here.â
Neil didn t want Killian s sadness to worsen his condition.
Right. Paige is here. Letâs not talk about this!â
Killian gave a smile again.
âCome here. Iâll put it on for you.â
Martin took out the necklace with his slender fingers as he moved closer to Paige.
Paige could smell the faint fragrance emitting from him. She wanted to turn it down but did not have the heart to do so due to Killianâs expectant eyes and what Killian had just said.
âItâs very beautiful.â
Martinâs eyes swept across Paigeâs facial features. Her gorgeousness, starry eyes, and fair-skinned slender neck made it look like the beautiful and delicate crown was tailor-made for her âIt suits you very well.â
Martin raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes gentle like water.
âIt would be great if Rosa could see this,â Killian said.
Martinâs lips curved slightly. âPaige, I will take you to visit her one day.â
Paige was surprised.
But Killian was happy upon hearing this. âGreat!
âBring me along as well! Paige, when can I be discharged from the hospital?â
Paige answered, âIn three more days if your condition stabilizes.â
âRemember to pick me up then. Iâll go with you to visit Rosa.â
Paige thought for a moment. âOK.â
She thought, maybe I can help with Rosaâs condition.
Killian became cheerful and continued to chat away with them for a while. Before leaving, Paige took out an exquisite vial from her pocket.
âKillian, this is for you.â
Killian did not expect that he would receive a gift from Paige. Therefore, he took it and asked in anticipation, âWhat is this?â
âPills. Take one pill a month for half a year. It will make you healthier and live longer âHaha! That sounds precious. It must be very expensive, right? Paige, where did you get this?â
Killian did not expect Paige would be so considerate. For a senior like him, health was all that mattered.
Despite all his wealth, Killian wanted nothing but a longer life.
And Paige knew about that!
Can I have one now.
Killian opened the vial impatiently before tilting it, wanting to pour one pill out. But a lot of them ran out into his hand due to his excitement.
Noticing there was the word âlongevityâ on each pill, Rhys was shocked, thinking, arenât those the Longevity Pill which caused a sensation in the auction?
It is said that the pills can make people stronger and live longer lives. And only one pill is up for auction every several months.
One pill cost Soo thousand dollars.
But why does Ms. Tate have such expensive and rare stuff in such large quantities?
If she bought all the pills at auction, it would take her years to collect so many of them, right?
And the point is, Ms. Tate is too young to need this.
Then why would she spend so much money on the pills and take them with her like this?
Unlessâ¦
Unless she made the pills herself!
That way, she could have as many as she wanted!
At the thought of this, Rhys looked at Martin in disbelief. Martin recognized the pills as well, his gaze deepening.
Martin thought, it seems that she is the famous druggist in the field of medicine, Mr Paige Many of the sought-after medicines in previous auctions should have come from her That explained a lot about why she showed up in the church near the auction that day.
Because that day, she had been to the auction as well.
At the thought of this, Martin smiled. He never expected that Paige could manage to hide her light under a bushel so well.
âKillian, you are lucky enough to have the pills!â
Rhys couldnât help but hint at something.
âI think I am,â Killian replied.
Then Killian took a pill. âItâs sweet and delicious. Iâm lucky that Paige has given me so many of them.
Paige, is there any collateral damage if I eat too many of them? Can I have one pill a day?â
âDonâtâ¦â Rhys said.
(âNo.â Martin said as well.
âWhy?â Killian looked at the two of them in confusion.
Rhys hesitated, thinking, what a waste to have such expensive pills like this!
âTake one pill a month, like Paige says,â Martin added subtly.
âAlrightâ¦â
