Chapter 279

“Fortunately, we sleep in separate rooms, otherwise it would have affected you too.”

Upon hearing her words, Jesse felt a warm sensation in his heart. She actually thought about whether he was okay first.

If there was really something in the aroma, then Willette never thought about being good to her. Instead, he used her to poison Jesse and had been poisoning her since she was sixteen.

“Asher pushed you on purpose today?” Nydia casually mentioned Asher pushing her earlier, but didn’t go into detail.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, she told Jesse what happened.

A flash of killing intent flickered in Jesse’s eyes, but he didn’t want to scare Nydia, so he suppressed it.

When they got home, the two children had stayed up waiting for them.

“Why aren’t you sleeping yet? Mommy is okay!” She went over to pick up the two children, but couldn’t bend down, so she just patted their heads. “Mommy fell and can’t carry you guys now. Go to sleep like good kids.”

“Mommy, are you really okay?” Molly was still worried.

“I’m really okay, I’ll be better in a couple of days.”

Tavish looked at Jesse, and Jesse nodded at him. Tavish then took Molly back to her room to sleep.

“I’ll take a shower and go to bed.” Nydia was still weak from her period.

“Don’t go to work tomorrow.”

“No, I have to go to work!” Nydia said firmly.

She had to understand the Malone Group well if she wanted to deal with Willette and Cade. She had to take everything they owned away from them, which for Cade meant the Malone Group. As for Willette, she had a good way to deal with her.

Jesse didn’t say anything more. He understood her personality, especially how stubborn she could be.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have targeted him everywhere because of a misunderstanding in the past, even neglecting their children.

And now that she no longer trusted Willette, she chose to trust him completely. In fact, this kind of personality was not good.

He could only do his best to protect her.

“Give me a call if anything comes up tomorrow, anyway you are a person with connections!” Nydia was amused by Jesse’s words, she approached and hugged him, “Got it, thank you, Mr. Pascall.”

Jesse had heard this title too many times before, and when others called him that, he didn’t feel anything, but hearing it from her mouth made him restless and unable to control his feelings.

He went to the study to call Vergil.

“Hey, I have a task for you. If you do it well, you can come to my house for a meal, my wife will cook.”

“Sir, you name it! I’ll do anything, no matter what!”

“Asher Khan, the designer from Malone Group, I want you to investigate him and make sure he can’t make it in the design circle.”

“Break his leg, three ribs, and a finger?”

“Does it have to be three? Can’t it be five?” What if he accidentally breaks a whole row?

“At least three.”

“Okay, you can count on me to complete the task.”

After Jesse hung up the phone, his face turned cold, and he put this account on Cade’s head.

The atmosphere in the design department was still strange the next day, and everyone wondered if Asher would still give Nydia a hard time, or if Nydia would trouble Asher.

Unexpectedly, the design department was very calm that day.

But the more peaceful it was, the more curious everyone became.

Who was behind Nydia? It couldn’t be someone insignificant, or why would they only come to be an assistant, and still be a bullied assistant? She didn’t even retaliate when Asher pushed her yesterday. She probably came in through connection.

So many people’s attitudes towards Nydia changed again.

Nydia didn’t pay attention to them. She finished work as usual and hurried back to clarify the matter of the aromatherapy, because Vincent would bring the report in the evening.

After dinner, Vincent arrived.

They went to the study to discuss the matter.

Vincent placed the report on the table.

“It has been detected that the aromatherapy does indeed contain toxic substances!”
