A Crazy One-night Stand novel Chapter 106

Jayden watched in dismay as Alina collapsed. He immediately picked her up and rushed Alina to her room. 

On the second floor of a building, a beautiful woman was watching this scene with interest. She was standing in a corridor, which gave her an excellent angle. She focused her camera on them and took a photo. It was a good thing that Scott's house was always brightly lit, everywhere was as bright as day! 

When Jayden brought Alina back to her room, she had already woken up. With a frown, she asked Jayden in confusion, "Did I faint?"

Jayden's face was as cold as ever. He was no longer his usual sarcastic and playful self. "What's going on?"

On the way back, he heard the servants discussing a stolen necklace. He also heard Alina's name mentioned vaguely. 

Alina smiled and said, "Perhaps it was because I stayed up too late last night reading books, so I didn't have a good rest. Women are still very different from men. Their constitution is weaker and needs sufficient rest to recover." 

"Alina!" Jayden was furious. "Tell me what happened!"

"What? Nothing happened! It's just that I've been tired recently and my energy levels are a little low!" Alina insisted. 

"All right, forget it if you don't want to tell me. Have a good rest!" Jayden turned around and left.

Who was he? He was Jayden Lewis, a private investigator who became a fan of Sherlock Holmes by the age of 10! He could figure out such a trivial matter by himself.  

The next day,

Alina was still suffering from diarrhoea. As she looked at the empty bottle of medicine helplessly, she murmured to herself, "The quality of medications now is deteriorating! What medicine is this? There's no effect whatsoever!" 

At eight o'clock in the evening,

Jayden came for Alina's training class. Looking at Alina's pale face, he frowned and asked, "Were you reading late last night again?"

"Yes, that's right!" Alina smiled awkwardly. 

"Well, let's get started!" Jayden didn't ask further. "As usual, practice your kicking and boxing 90 times each. Every movement must be fast and accurate as these are all basic skills!" 

"Yes, Jayden!" Alina agreed and started training. 

After she finished her kicking and boxing exercises, she had to go into a horse stance again. 

Alina gritted her teeth and persevered.

When it was ten o'clock, she bowed to Jayden after the training ended. "Goodbye, Jayden!"

Bowing to your instructors was basic etiquette in martial arts. 

Then she hurried back to her room.

Jayden looked meaningfully at Alina's silhouette in the distance. "That's interesting. Who knew that Wilson's woman would steal a necklace?"

Jayden had investigated Alina's background as she managed to pique his interest. 

It turned out that the online rumours were true. She was in a relationship with Ken, the president of the Anderson Group. It caused a huge commotion at that time. 

What's more, Ken's mother gave her a cheque of five million dollars when she broke up with Ken. However, Alina donated everything to an orphanage. 

She donated five million dollars entirely! How would someone so generous steal a necklace? 

Obviously, Alina was framed by a despicable ploy to drive her away from the Scott Family! How deplorable!  

On the third day, training continued as usual.

Jayden noticed that Alina's complexion was getting worse. He raised an eyebrow and said, "If you haven't done anything wrong, why torture yourself?"

"Huh?" Alina didn't understand what Jayden was trying to say. 

Jayden explained, "Since you didn't steal the necklace, why are you losing sleep over this? Look at how weak your physical and mental state are! Before our training could even start, your legs are already trembling!"  

Alina couldn't help but feel surprised. Even an outsider like Jayden got to know of the stolen necklace!

However, she couldn't tell Jayden that her legs were weak because of diarrhoea.  

So she replied, "It doesn't feel good to be misunderstood."

With a smile, she continued, "But I will try my best to improve my mental strength!"

Jayden couldn't help admiring Alina even more when he saw her putting on a brave front. 

He raised his eyebrows. "Let's cancel practice today. Go back and rest. I have something urgent to deal with." 

As Jayden said that, he walked away briskly. 

He heard Alina's cheerful voice call out behind him, "Goodbye, Jayden!" 

Jayden couldn't help but smile. 

...

At Lewis's house, 

Wilson received a call.

"Mr. Scott, Kason has left the villa." 

Wilson tightened his grip on the phone. He clenched his teeth and squeezed out the words, "I want him dead!" 

Wilson had not slept for two whole days. He set up a trap to make sure Kason would die seemingly in an accident. 

His cold eyes shone red. "Rosalie, I can finally avenge you!"

The door creaked open and Jayden walked in. Wilson looked up and frowned. "Don't you know how to knock?" 

Jayden was pissed. "D*mn it, do I have to knock in my own house? What kind of rule is this?"
