Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 1244

Glancing at the trellis Evan organized earlier, Draven understood that he was anxious to obtain the cure for Nina. Thus, he did not continue pressing.

In the evening, the entire Nepenthe Valley was spotless and approved by Crystal Rose.

“Not bad. I can give them thirty percent of the cure tonight.”

Immediately, Nina’s eyes shone with hope while Monica was filled with happiness after knowing she was saved.

That night, the duo followed Crystal Rose into a secret chamber. There, the latter ordered someone to prepare two wooden buckets filled with precious herbs, and the entire room was filled with its rich scent.

“You guys can go and soak inside for two hours. After that, I’ll check your pulse and give you the medication.”

Monica and Nina exchanged glances. The former was obviously hesitating, staring at the wooden bucket with a frantic look on her face.

Meanwhile, Nina answered, “Okay,” and proceeded to soak herself in the herbs.

Crystal Rose shot a look at Monica. “Do you still want the cure? If not, you can leave right now.”

Since Monica was left with no other choice, she decided to go along with it.

“Y-Yes. I want to.” After saying that, she dipped herself into the wooden bucket.

Two hours seemed to pass by longer than usual. Nina had her eyes closed, silently sitting inside the wooden bucket.

On the other hand, Monica was growing antsier and antsier. “Do you feel a kind of weird sensation? Like ants are biting all over your body?” She could not help but ask.

Nina shook her head. “Nope. I only feel that the water feels warm and relaxing.”

Relaxing? Why don’t I feel the same way? Perhaps there’s something wrong with the water?
