You Are The Apple of My Eyes novel Chapter 542

After leaving the hospital, Nina kept asking John on the ride home, "Will you support me or not?"

John did not want to lie to her, but he was afraid that she would be sad if he told her the truth. So he had to make up an excuse. "Why are you worrying about this now? You haven't even graduated yet. When we return to Lexingport City, you finish the remaining two years of your studies first."

"My studies won't hinder me from successfully running a detective agency. In fact, our school encourages us college students to start our own business." Nina shook his arm and blinked her innocent eyes. "I know what you're worried about, but can you just please support me? Please? Please?"

Every time she said "please," she tugged on his arm like a poor kitten waiting for its owner to stroke its head.

John was about to lose his conviction, but at the last minute, he was pulled back by his remaining sanity. He turned a deaf ear to her.

"Forget it. I don't need your support." Nina angrily shook off his arm and then turned to look out the window.

Seeing the angry look on her face, John sat upright and said, "If you start a detective agency, you can only register it in the form of business investigation and information consulting. Your right to investigate and collect evidence is limited. If you want to get more authority, you're going to need my help."

Nina glanced at him, her mouth slightly open.

'Of course he'd point that out.'

Nina snorted, rolled her eyes, and looked out the window once again. She did not speak to John the rest of the way home.

They were about to arrive at the castle. Once they got out of the car, they could not be seen getting too close to each other.

To make it easier for them, Vicente had made some changes in Nina's car. She had a soundproofed partition installed between the front seat and the back seat. If the driver wanted to talk to them, he would need some special communication equipment.

That was what John knew. Before the car stopped, he held Nina's hand and compromised, "Fine. I promise to support you."

Nina whipped her head toward him, and her eyes lit up.

"I just have one condition."

Nina's shoulders slumped at John's last sentence. 'I knew it wouldn't be that easy.'

She thought for a while and asked, "What condition?"

"I'll tell you when we return to Lexingport City." John did not tell her right away.

"Fine." Nina nodded, feeling a little bit better at John's decision to compromise.

As the car pulled to a stop, the two sat upright. The driver opened the door, and Nina got out. John followed suit and kept a proper distance.

Kevin's staff had already sent Nina's new medication to the castle. Per his instructions, she only needed to take one pill with warm water before going to bed every night.

The small, dark brown gel capsules felt a little soft in her hand. Its contents looked like dark brown collagen.

Nina sat there and stared at the pill in her hand. John handed her a glass of warm water. Vicente and Noah stood beside her, watching her carefully. They seemed so nervous that they looked like they were not even breathing.

"What are you staring at?" Nina looked at them in amusement.

Her sudden voice startled Vicente. "My little princess, just ignore us and take your medication first."

"First?" Noah turned to look at Vicente. "Will you take one, too, after Nina?"

"What?

You're so annoying! Yes, I will take one as well after Nina, and you'll also take one after me," Vicente answered mockingly.

Noah answered naturally,

"And John is the last one." John just glanced at Noah and Vicente with a disdainful look and stood aside.

Nina lowered her head and chuckled. She put the pill into her mouth and washed it down with the glass of water.

"How are you feeling?" Seeing her swallow the pill, Vicente asked for the results right away.

"What medicine works that fast?" Noah looked at Vicente as if he was staring at an idiot. "She just took it. We don't know how long it takes to kick in."
