My Mommy Is A CEO

As he was escorting Eve back to her room, Lauren casually asked her a question as if it were nothing.

“By the way, when I wasn’t here yesterday, did your sister come by?”

“Yes,” Eve sweetly smiled and replied, “and she brought me new medicine.”

Lauren raised an eyebrow, a hint of hostility floating between his brows, which startled Eve who had been staring at him.

“Lauren, why are you angry?”

“It’s okay,” Lauren replied calmly, “It’s rare for her to be so concerned about you.”

“My sister has always been concerned about my health,” Eve was puzzled, but the smile on her face became even sweeter when she thought of her sister, “My body has improved a lot recently, and I have never felt so good mentally. It’s all thanks to you and my sister taking care of me carefully.”

Lauren chuckled softly and gently stroked Eve’s hair by her ear, his eyes mysterious and unclear.

It seemed that he needed to give her a push and motivate her.

When Eve was being taken into the room, Lauren took the opportunity to secretly take Nia’s well-prepared medicine and instructed Stoffer to buy new ones tomorrow. He then brought the bag of medicine directly to the small villa where Nia and Kevin currently resided.

At three o’clock in the afternoon, Nia and Kevin were tossing each other on the bed. When they heard the door being knocked, the two lost their interest in an instant. Nia’s face flushed, and she put on her pajamas and went to question the person who knocked on the door.

“Asshole, who let you disturb us?!” Seeing the maid from the villa knocking on the door, Nia raised her hand and slapped her while cursing.

“It’s me…” Lauren said coldly to Nia, who was slapping the maid as he had already gone upstairs.

Nia’s hand was suspended in mid-air, her face a mixture of embarrassment and frustration.

“You go down first,” Lauren said to the trembling maid.

The maid, who had been granted amnesty, hurriedly fled. At this moment, Kevin heard some noise and got off the bed. He casually wrapped a blanket around his waist and came over.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

“Nia, what’s going on?”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Lauren’s cold and stern expression.

Lauren glanced at Nia and Kevin’s appearance, and said coldly,

“Come down and see me when you’re dressed.”

After speaking, he turned around and left, leaving Nia and Kevin looking at each other. The two quickly changed their clothes and went downstairs to the living room. Lauren was sitting on the sofa waiting for them now.

“Did you come in person for something?” Nia felt a bit uneasy as her arrogant behavior was just witnessed by Lauren.

“Here are your medicine back,” Lauren said as he threw the medicine Nia had bought onto the coffee table.

“Mr. Osade, what does this medicine that Nia purchased for Eve mean?” Kevin asked calmly, pretending not to know anything.

“Do you think I need to explain myself?” Lauren replied coldly, without even looking at Kevin.

“I…” Nia instinctively wanted to defend herself, but was immediately stopped by Kevin’s raised hand. He gave her a look that told her not to speak out of turn.

“Nia, you know how I feel about Eve and how many times I’ve helped you because your blood can alleviate her condition. That’s all there is to it. We agreed that I would help you and in return, you would donate blood for Eve. But outside of that…” As Lauren spoke slowly and deliberately, he fixed his gaze on Nia, “I won’t tolerate any of your tricks.”

Nia pursed her lips and slowly lowered her eyes under Lauren’s sharp gaze.

He knew!

Her heart skipped a beat as she tried to come up with an excuse when she saw Lauren stand up slowly and walk directly towards her. She couldn’t help but tremble slightly; even her lips turned pale.

Lauren towered over Nia as he looked down at her with contemptuous eyes while even Kevin remained silent in fear. He said, “I’m sure… you’ve also checked my background before. Of course, I know you can’t find out everything about me. However the Osade family’s name is well-known in Mexico. My methods are more than just talk! Don’t think that just because we’re in this country means I can’t deal with you if necessary! The only reason why I have helped both of you so many times is because Eve trusts you completely. If anything happens now then Nia – let’s just say there will be no place left for your burial!”

Lauren had always been domineering since childhood; it was impossible for someone like Nia who was an ordinary person to resist him or say anything under his intimidation tactics.

But Kevin had other ideas.

“Mr. Osade,” he said calmly. “Nia and Eve are sisters after all. Sometimes she resorts to some tricks only for self-preservation purposes without really wanting harm anyone else… We did this only because you love Eve deeply while we don’t have any solid relationship with you. We hope you will be magnanimous enough not to blame us.”

“What excuse do have after doing something like this?” sneered Lauren as he looked sideways at him.

“But,” continued Kevin firmly, “Nia has never refused donating blood for Eve whenever needed. As long as she’s around, nothing bad will ever happen to Eva. Mr. Osade, you should understand this better than anyone else.”

“If it weren’t useful, then do you think I would still bother helping both of you?!” retorted Lauren coldly.

“So…” Nia had been listening for a while, and her ambition surged once again. She slowly raised her gaze and said, “Please don’t blame us, Mr. Osade. After all, only my blood can save Eve.”

Nia was aware of her special status and finally calmed down.

Lauren looked coldly at Nia and couldn’t help but laugh, “You finally dare to speak your mind.”

“Why wouldn’t I?” Nia had had enough of being suppressed. She suppressed her fear deep down inside and spoke loudly,

“I never hide my intentions. I used to be a clear-headed person too, but when could Lucia ever let me go? Reynolds approached me because of her. Spencer took me because he wanted to anger her. Even Jacob is obsessed with her! We are destined to be enemies! Yes, I used Eve as leverage against you, but if you want to save her, then you have no choice but to help me. And I’m not afraid that you will tell the truth to Eve. Even if you do tell her, she will still wholeheartedly defend me.”

“Nia, you’re despicable,” Lauren gritted his teeth.

“I’m only doing this because Lucia forced my hand,” Nia’s fighting spirit rose as she spoke, “I know that there must be something special between Arthur and you. I’ve never asked for your help in dealing with Lucia – just some money or effort from you won’t hurt you much.”

“So you knew…” Lauren’s eyebrows raised high. If he hadn’t tried hard to suppress himself, he would have choked Nia by now.

“Okay then, Nia,” Kevin came out at the right time, trying to ease the tension between Lauren and Nia. “Mr. Osade is going to be our brother-in-law in the future so why bother offending him?”
