She Is A CEO

Chapter 1079 Mrs. Wood is Seriously III

Leon saw that Casper was in a good mood and relaxed, so he kept urging him to drink. Sage also took the opportunity to offer him attentive service, taking care of Casper very thoughtfully.

The music in the room rang through the ears, and no one noticed that Casper's cell phone on the table had already received several calls. In the early morning, when Casper was cuddling with two girls, suddenly the door of the room was opened by someone. When the door was pushed it away, the thick fog in the room overflowed.

"Who is it?" Leon, who was drunk and dizzy, noticed someone had barged in but couldn't open his eyes to see clearly. So he bravely shouted, "Who the hell dares to barge in here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the person turned off the sound system and the room instantly became quiet. Meanwhile, Casper was still lying on top of a hostess.

"Sir, Mr. Wood has an urgent matter and requests that you return immediately!" The two trusted aides of Miles spoke with stern expressions as they stood in the room, addressing Casper who was still unaware of what had happened.

"What?" Leon stared at the two figures in a daze, but luckily Sage was still sober and quickly walked over to Casper's side to remind him in a low voice.

"Sir, two trusted aides of Mr. Wood have arrived."

"What aides?" Casper looked up from the hostess' chest, and couldn't open his eyes as Leon did.

"They're Mr. Wood's trusted aides. Could something have happened to Mr. and Mrs. Wood?" Sage continued to remind, and only then did Casper reluctantly sit up, staring blankly for a long time until the smell of alcohol dissipated.

"Indeed, Mrs. Wood has had an accident. Sir, please come back with us immediately!" The two trusted aides seemed to have little patience left as they walked directly to Casper's side, one on the left and one on the right. They reached out and lifted Casper up forcefully, who was completely limp and unable to move his body.

"What are you guys doing!" Leon gradually realized the situation and found that his boss was being held hostage. He wanted to rush over to help, but he collapsed as soon as he stood up and fell back onto the sofa.

Sage, who was quick-witted, came to Casper's side and handed him a glass of ice water, saying,

"Boss, Mrs. Wood is in trouble!"

"What could happen to her..." Casper wasn't so drunk that he was unconscious, and he kept struggling to break free from the people holding him while muttering to himself. Unfortunately, he couldn't shake anyone off at the moment.

Sage frowned and handed the water glass to Casper's lips. Casper took a few sips, and his eyes finally cleared up a bit.

"You stay here to take care of Leon. We'll take him back," Miles' subordinates stared at Sage and said.

"But..." Sage dared not make a decision on his own.

Sage was helpless as he watched Miles' two trusted men take away their boss. He turned around and glanced at the confused hostess on the sofa and Leon, who was cursing and swearing, before calmly sitting back down.

As they stepped out of the stuffy private room, Casper shuddered at the sudden blast of cold air in the hallway. His eyes cleared instantly from their previously hazy state due to alcohol. Looking left and right at those around him, he asked in a hoarse voice,

"What happened exactly?"

"Sir," one of Miles' trusted men replied dutifully while supporting Casper as they walked forward. "Mrs. Wood had an attack of vertigo tonight and vomited heavily while calling out your name repeatedly. Mr. Wood kept calling you but there was no answer so we searched for you here to bring you back to see Mrs. Wood."

"And her illness will be cured if I go back?" Casper sneered with a laugh causing both men to frown.

"Mrs. Wood has been calling for you all this time."

"Alright alright," said Casper dismissively as he steadied himself after shaking off Miles' men earlier on; now able to walk more steadily after taking a few steps.

Casper's drinking capacity had always been well-known even in Athegate. How could he gain any advantage over others if he couldn't hold his liquor?

An hour later, Miles' trusted men brought Casper who was intoxicated into Nia's apartment where upon entering, Casper immediately ordered without any politeness, "Go pour me a glass of water."

The two looked at each other before one went off to get him some water while Miles appeared from inside upon hearing some noise outside. Seeing that Casper reeked strongly of alcohol with redness creeping up on his face caused him to furrow his brows.

Casper looked up at Miles but only gave a snort before leisurely leaning against the sofa.

Miles stood silently by the entrance without saying anything until after one of his trusted men handed over a glass of water which Casper drank before speaking slowly,

"So what happened?"

Miles gritted his teeth inwardly but still spoke calmly,

"Libby has always had spinal problems which can lead to insufficient blood supply causing vertigo when she doesn't rest well enough. It got worse this time round since she started vomiting and since evening till now... if she hadn't been calling out your name constantly, I wouldn't have called for you either."

"Oh? Mommy misses her son?" raised an eyebrow sarcastically did Caspar whose words were like sharp knives cutting through people's hearts.

Miles clenched both fists by now but still managed say through gritted teeth,

"You are still 'Casper', so put up appearances when necessary."Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

"Okay, okay," Casper impatiently waved his hand and slowly stood up, saying, "I'll go see her."

After speaking, he walked directly towards Miles and whispered as he passed him, "I'm only going because of the face."

Miles glared fiercely at Casper but he didn't care. He walked into Libby's bedroom with a smile on his face.

As soon as he entered the room, a sour smell hit him. Casper wrinkled his nose in disgust and saw Libby lying on the bed moaning in pain. There was a bowl next to the bed for her to vomit into; that was where the smell was coming from.

Casper already felt nauseous before smelling it. Now that he had smelled it, his stomach churned even more violently than before. He turned around to retreat but Miles had somehow appeared behind him without him noticing and those eyes were staring straight at him.

Casper frowned and said, "Get rid of that dirty stuff or else I'll throw up before she does."

Miles waved his hand and one of his trusted aides took away the bowl; gradually dissipating the smell until Casper felt better again - willing to walk towards Libby.

"Mom, what's wrong?" When Casper spoke again, he sounded like a concerned son.

As soon as she heard Casper's voice, Libby opened her eyes but just as she tried to sit up she felt dizzy again - falling back onto the bed instead. Worriedly reaching out for her, Casper said, "Mom! How did you end up like this after just one night?"
