“That’s good. I’ll look into the Crystal Rose matter myself. You and Kyle don’t have to worry about it. The

both of you should just focus on taking care of the company and doing what you should do.”

With that, Evan kicked Davin out of the study room and told him to send up Kyle.

When Kyle heard that Evan wanted to talk to him, he hurried upstairs immediately.

“You were looking for me?” Kyle said as he entered the study room.

Evan gazed at his elegant, poised, and confident son. His eyes lit up, and he looked pleased. “You’re all

grown up now, Kai.”

“I was incompetent. Nina fell for Monica’s trick because I didn’t protect her well,” Kyle lamented.

“That’s not your fault! I already know what happened. I didn’t call you up here to hear you blame yourself.

The most pressing matter now is to gather all the required ingredients for the antidote so that we can

heal Nina.”

“I’ve sent the Hidden Masters to look for Resurrecting Herb and Exquisite Flower. As for Crystal Rose… I

think it’ll be difficult to find it. I sent someone to find out more about it, but there haven’t been any

updates so far. That’s why I was thinking to make a trip to Nepenthe Valley to look for it,” said Kyle.

“Are you sure that Crystal Rose is an herb and not someone’s name?” Evan asked.

Kyle paused as he mulled over the possibility. Someone’s name? If it really is a person’s name, is it

someone who can cure Nina? So, he thinks that Crystal Rose is someone who can use those two

ingredients to cure Nina.

“Why would you think that? Do you know something?” Kyle asked.

“I seem to have heard of the name Crystal Rose before. Your mother is an acupuncturist. Maybe her

mentor has heard of Crystal Rose before.”

“Well, we’ll have to ask her then,” Kyle replied.

Evan nodded as he gazed at Kyle. “Leave it to me. You and Davin will be able to handle the company’s

affairs on your own, right?”

“That won’t be a problem.”

Although Kyle and Davin did not always see eye to eye, Kyle knew that Evan already had a lot on his

plate. Daddy has to investigate the Crystal Rose matter while worrying about Nina’s condition and taking

care of Mommy. It doesn’t matter if I have any disagreements with Uncle Davin about the company’s

affairs. I don’t want to cause more trouble for him. Moreover, Uncle Davin teamed up with the company’s

board members to stop me from going to Nepenthe Valley and risking my life. So, I suppose Uncle Davin

can be considered a good uncle! Because of that, I won’t make things too difficult for Uncle Davin. I’ll just

argue with him occasionally like how I used to. I don’t mind managing the company with him.

As Evan came out of the study room, he saw Nicole walking Nina back to her bedroom. The sight of

Nina’s frail figure sent a pang shooting through his heart.

“You’ve gotten so much thinner, Nina. Just let Maya know what you feel like eating so that she can

prepare it for you,” said Nicole.

“I will. Maya took good care of me when you weren’t around. She kept making delicious food for me. But

I just don’t know what’s wrong with me. I get tired so easily,” Nina answered.

Nicole sighed. She thought that Nina’s condition was because her lovesickness had worsened and

morphed into depression.

When they were downstairs earlier, Nina had even asked Nicole whether she could go and meet Chris.

After giving it some thought, Nicole had told Nina that she would invite Chris to the house.

Nina had not said much after that.

“I’m tired. I’m going to take a nap,” said Nina.

“Okay,” Nicole replied. After watching Nina enter her bedroom and close the door, she turned around and

saw Evan approaching her.

“I promised Nina that I’d invite Chris over,” said Nicole, her voice faltering. She could not help sneaking a

peek to see how Evan would take the news.

Evan knitted his brows. “I don’t think there’s a need for that.”

“But Nina really wants to see him. Look at how thin she has gotten. Can you bear to see her suffer even
