Whirlwind Marriage: My Possessive CEO's Undying Pampering-Chapter 858 - 857: A Death at the Bar (1)
Cooperating with the White Group, the Nightingale Group greatly boosted its reputation and even moved to a new office building.
In such a short time, the Nightingale Group was revived, but those collaborations weren’t the most important thing... the most important thing was, Eva Nightingale had a Crown Prince behind her!!
He was the real deal, immensely powerful, controlling everything in the Sovereign Empire like a king crab, moving sideways as he pleased!
Carla Carr was still unaware that the drama Annabelle shot was under Eva Nightingale’s company. Speaking of which, Eva was Annabelle’s boss.
Because ever since a few months ago, the Crown Prince registered the company under Eva Nightingale’s name, making her the true president of the Nightingale Group.

Meanwhile, at the upscale sanatorium in the city center.
The Crown Prince didn’t seem to be getting better, huh?!
Eva Nightingale was a bit questioning life, dear heavens, shouldn’t someone recover more and more? Why was the Crown Prince’s "condition" worsening the longer he stayed hospitalized?
He had changed completely, didn’t like to talk anymore, his whole demeanor was cold and icy, looked utterly ascetic.
His charmingly devilish face left her at a loss for words to describe, he must be a devil!
"Let me touch you." She walked up next to him, raising her hand.
"Touch where?" His voice was no longer the usual cool tone, was there even a hint of... flirtation?
"Touch your..." She suddenly wanted to curse, but around him, she always felt incredibly weak, she couldn’t help it, his aura was too overwhelming...
"Check if you’ve got a fever."
Lucas Knight: "Oh." Having said that, he sat on the sofa and then spoke, "Go ahead."
Go ahead...
Go ahead?
Why did it feel somewhat strange, maybe she was overthinking it, certainly!
She raised her hand, touched his handsome forehead, the temperature was fine, okay, no problem.
"All done, I’ve finished checking."
"Huh?" Was that it? He was all prepared, and she just lightly touched him?
...
Stayed until midnight before the man finally fell asleep.
Eva Nightingale approached him, cautiously covered him with a blanket, then straightened up, walked out of the room.
She left.
After caring for him here for three days.
Carla Carr called her from overseas, she hadn’t received the call, just realized now, so she planned to see her and come back afterward.
"Miss, has the President fallen asleep?" She bumped into the chief physician.
"Yes, he’s asleep, I have something to attend to, will be back in a bit. Please keep an eye on him." After speaking, Eva Nightingale headed to the elevator, where she unexpectedly bumped into Harry North, giving him similar instructions before leaving.
...
However.
He hadn’t fallen asleep.
Her footsteps gradually faded away.
About ten seconds later, he opened his eyes, first looking towards the door, she walked cautiously.
Lucas Knight got up, quickly fastening the robe’s belt, then walked out the door.
"Click" the door was pushed open.
Harry North intended to check on his master’s situation, but unexpectedly bumped into him?
"Sir, weren’t you asleep?"
Not even a minute, and he was awake?
The handsome man only uttered two words: "Where is she?"
Harry North: "Sir, the miss just left, she didn’t tell me specifics, but she said she’ll be back shortly."
Perhaps she went downstairs to buy something?
"Go and investigate." Lucas Knight spoke, his tone calm yet commanding, "Find her whereabouts."
Harry North: "Yes."
Upon finishing his response, Harry North quickly retreated to investigate at top speed.
