You Are The Apple of My Eyes novel Chapter 526

Vicente's anger simmered beneath the surface as she looked at John's disdainful eyes, but then her expression changed.

"Yes! Why didn't I think of it before?" Vicente exclaimed excitedly at the realization. "If Demi really wanted to kill herself, she would have done so in secret. She made noise so that my people would notice her and save her. I was deceived."

"Right," Nina nodded. "The wound on her forehead didn't seem to be too serious—it didn't look like she would die from it. Then, she woke up soon after she fainted.

She was planning to lure us there. As for the reason why she did that, well, she probably wanted to check whether we have found out about her connection to Jett.

Now that she knows the answer, she won't commit suicide. For her, the next logical step would be to find a way to escape or wait for Jett to send people to save her."

"Jett is a heartless man. Will he come to save her?" Vicente very much doubted it.

Nina answered resolutely, "He would. We've only ever seen his interactions with Ruby and other women. We haven't seen how he treats Demi.

Yesterday, I got some information about the sapphire necklace. Back then, Jett spent a ton of money on the sapphire necklace. He gave Demi the real one, while he gifted his own wife a fake one.

Do you remember that perfume? John had the matter secretly investigated. As it turns out, Jett mixed the perfume himself, for his beloved. But Ruby only ever uses perfumes from a well-known international brand."

Nina's glance shifted from John to Vicente. "Vicente, do you remember telling me that Demi's perfume was sent by her boyfriend? You mentioned that she wore it every day. A man was willing to take the time to make her a customized perfume. Demi's boyfriend must be loving her deeply."

Vicente gasped, understanding what Nina was implying. "If what you're saying is true, then Jett and Demi must really love each other. There's no way that he won't come to save her."

Nina nodded. "Has Jett found out that we have Demi?"

"I'm not sure. I told the others that Demi went on a business trip, but he probably is suspicious of it, especially when he can't get in touch with her." Vicente sneered. "He is very calm, and he hasn't done anything yet. However, my men found out that he visited a private hospital, but they couldn't find anything."

"Hospital?" Nina turned to look at John. "We've been ignoring one thing all this time! Jett had people take away Van and Don because he suspected that the children are not Vicente's. He probably went to the hospital to get a paternity test done. Demi must have gotten samples from the children and given them to Jett to have their DNA tested. That would explain his calmness."

The atmosphere in the room dropped by several degrees as the expression on their faces changed at the same time.

"Didn't Cali swear that Demi didn't succeed?" Vicente suddenly shot up in alarm.

John's eyes narrowed into slits. "Cali did say that. It's difficult to tell the truth."

Nina gritted her teeth and smacked her lips. "If he really loves Demi, he might trade the secret for her. If he prefers power to Demi, then we're done for."

"What should I do?" Vicente paced back and forth worriedly.

After thinking for a while, John said, "Once he gets the result of the test, he will either announce it to the public or come to us. He hasn't done anything yet, which means he's still waiting for the result. We still have time."

Suddenly, Nina stood up and took out the photo that had been in Demi's bag. "I've always had a hunch that the person in this photo is the key. We must have missed something."

"I already had that checked." Vicente stopped her pacing. "There's nothing on C Island about this person. We have never heard anything about Jett's relationship, let alone a marriage."

In fact, they had investigated everything that they could think of, but to no avail.

The room became quiet once again.
