Mistaking The CEO For A Gigolo Chapter 1724


    Chapter 1724 Faye Was Poisoned


    She walked over curiously and heard Juan saying, “It’s poison, and I hear it’s fatal. I think Faye might


    not be able to survive this.”


    Poison? Faye? What’s going on?


    “What are you boys talking about?” asked Nina curiously.


    Juan turned around to look at her. “It’s none of your business.”


    “I know it’s none of my business, but I heard you mentioning Faye. Has she been poisoned?”


    Juan narrowed his eyes at his sister andmented, “Dang, your hearing is freakishly good.”


    “You were talking so loudly that it’d be a miracle if I didn’t hear anything! Tell me already. What’s going


    on?” demanded Nina in an annoyed tone.


    Her tone and choice of words caused Juan to go on the defensive. Heined, “What the hell?


    You’rete to work, yet you have the audacity to talk to us in that tone. You know, we should be


    interrogating you instead. Why are youte?”


    Nina was taken aback, but she held her head up high and replied, “I’m onlyte because I had


    something important to work on. I went to Simpson Group.”


    “What were you doing there? The project that bothpanies are coborating on is out of your job


    scope. Wait… Are you trying to snatch my project?”


    Nina red at him and said, “Puh-lease, I’m not a glory hound like you. I only went in Maya’s stead to


    terminate the contract with Wilbur. They’re officially over.”


    “Over?” Juan cried out in surprise. He found that to be strange, so he asked, “That’s surprising. I


    actually thought that Wilbur would end up being our brother-inw. Who would’ve thought that things


    would turn out this way?”


    Confusion bubbled up on Kyle’s handsome face when he heard that. “I don’t think that Wilbur is the


    kind of man they say he is. Besides, I heard about him from my friends, and they say that he’s an


    honorable man who has never crossed the line.”


    “An honorable man? Stop fighting for him, Kyle. At first, I shared the same thoughts as you guys, but


    he admitted to Janice’s baby being his! Those words felt like a p across my face when I first heard


    them.”


    “He admitted it? Huh, that’s strange. From what I’ve learned, that woman’s baby is…”


    “Is what?” probed Juan curiously.


    Nina shot him an inquisitive look as well.


    Kyle took a moment before he decided to reveal what he had learned. He said, “Rumor is, Wilbur’s


    brother is the baby’s father.”


    Wilbur’s brother?


    Nina and Juan turned to one another. Both found that to be shocking.


    “Where did you hear that from, Kyle? That can’t possibly be true. Why would he take his brother’s child


    in as his own?”


    “That’s right. This isn’t a minor issue. No brothers could possibly be on such good terms that one would


    take the other’s baby in.”


    Neither Nina nor Juan could figure out what was going on. Kyle frowned a little before sharing, “Wilbur


    and his brother are half-brothers who only share the same father. Hence, the rtionship within the


    Simpson family isplicated, and it’s possible that there’s more to this story.”


    Silence descended upon the siblings.


    Juan was the first to speak up after that. “I think we should just ignore it all. It has nothing to do with us


    anyway since it’s a personal family matter of the Simpsons. Besides, Maya is too pure. It’d be bad for


    her to marry into the Simpson family, where suchplicated drama is abundant. She won’t be able to


    handle it.”


    Nina thought about it and agreed. “You’re right, Juan. Maya is too innocent and pure, and I find the


    Simpson family to be tooplex as well. It won’t do her good to be involved in a mess like that.

    “Oh well, they already broke up anyway, so it doesn’t matter anymore. Let’s get back on track here.


    What were you boys talking about earlier? What’s up with Faye?”


    The change of topic caused Juan to sigh.


    “You know how Faye went on a treasure hunt? She ended up being poisoned before she even found


    the ce. Her body temperature keeps fluctuating as well. She could be wrapping herself in her


    nket in one second and getting an ice pack in the next. Mommy said that Faye was poisoned. I don’t


    think she’llst long if things keep deteriorating like this.”


    “Really? Where is she now? Is she still in Mommy’s hospital?”


    “Yeah, we just got back from there. Faye actually showed up at the hospital at two in the morning. The


    person in charge at the time didn’t want to disturb our parents, so Mommy only learned about Faye’s


    condition this morning.


    Mommy was furious about how she wasn’t informed of the situation right away. If you ask me, I don’t


    think Faye’s doing so well. Mommy’s acupuncture treatment is the only thing that’s easing the


    symptoms for now. If the antidote isn’t found soon, Faye likely won’t survive this. She’ll die a horrible


    and painful death.”
