Chapter 1227

Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo

Davin gazed at Sophia’s clenched fist wordlessly, then went over to Sheila reluctantly. Holding Sheila’s
arm, he helped her walk carefully toward the kitchen.




Sheila was pleased with David’s reaction, but she was even more pleased with how Sophia had acted.
She turned to Sophia and said, “Mom, I bought some jewelry a few days ago, and I think they’ll suit you
perfectly. I’ll bring them over to your room later.”

Davin pursed his lips. She bought the jewelry for her own mother, but now she’s going to give it to Mom!
Honestly, she’s willing to do anything to get Mom on her side.

Sophia chuckled. “That’s quite all right. I don’t need any more jewelry, so you can keep it. I was thinking
about getting someone over to make some maternity wear for you and Nicole.”



“Thank you, Mom!” Nicole and Sheila chorused in unison.



“There’s no need to thank me. A harmonious family is a prosperous family. As long as the both of you are
happy and I can see my sons lead comfortable lives, that’s enough for me.”

Davin quickly interjected, “Well, I’m not happy with how you dote on Sheep so much. It’s as if she’s your
daughter and I’m just your son-in-law.”





Sophia smiled and teased, “Have you only realized it now? You’ve always just been my son-in-law.”

Davin was flabbergasted. My goodness! I can’t believe that someone would actually choose her
daughter-in-law over her own son. Anything can happen in this world! I wouldn’t have believed it if I
hadn’t seen it with my own eyes!



The stunned and confused look on Davin’s face caused the others to burst into laughter.

Nicole gazed at Sophia admiringly. Not only does she understand the concept of how a harmonious
family makes a prosperous family, but she also knows how to make it a reality. She must be the most
intelligent woman ever! I hope I’ll be as wise of a mother-in-law as her after Kyle and Juan are married.



When they were in the privacy of their bedroom, Evan asked Nicole whether she had ever heard of
Crystal Rose.

“Crystal Rose?”

Nicole thought for a long time before looking up at Evan. “I remember Wesley mentioning that name
before. I think she’s highly skilled at healing someone who’s been poisoned. Why do you ask?”

So it seems that my vague memory was correct. Crystal Rose is a person’s name.

“Oh, I heard some people mention her and was just curious. Is she able to heal people from all types of
poisons?” Evan asked.

“I’m not too sure. I’ve heard people say that her poison healing technique is unrivaled and that she can
cure one of any poison. However, I don’t know the details. Wesley seems to know her, but he never
mentioned her much. They’ve probably just exchanged a few pleasantries and such.”



“Oh… Well, if he hardly mentioned her, then let’s forget about it. You should get some rest. I still have
some things to do,” Evan replied.

Once he was in the study room, Evan sent Draven to find out who Crystal Rose was.

The following morning, Draven came back with more information.

“Crystal Rose is a strange woman. She can heal one of any poison, but I’m afraid it won’t be easy to get
her to heal Ms. Nina,” Draven reported.

“Why do you say so?” Evan queried.

Draven explained, “I heard that doesn’t just agree to heal anyone. Those who want to seek for her help
have to fulfill three conditions.”

“What are the conditions?”

“Since Crystal Rose is a woman, her first condition is that the person seeking for her help must be a
woman as well. She only heals women.”

Evan was relieved. Well, Nina fulfills that condition.

“What’s the second condition?”

Draven continued, “The second condition involves three tests she has devised. For every test one
passes successfully, she’ll heal that person by thirty percent. Once one passes all three tests, they’ll be
ninety percent healed.”

“So, one will only be completely healed if they fulfill the third condition?”
