Ceo's Mysterious Fiancee by Piper Dunlap

Chapter 34

The Diamond Necklace

You

Killian thought, what! He was doing that purposely

Then Paige chipped in with a faint smile, “There is no need to add any more medicine to it. It is just that you can’t

drink alcohol anymore.”

“All right.”

“Paige has a point.” Killian nodded.

“Mrs. Stowe, I will take good care of Mr. Stowe in the future” Neil nodded.

“Just call me Paige,” Paige, helplessly, corrected him.

“No. I can’t call you by your name!”

“But it was you who plotted with Killian so as to make Killian be able to drink his alcohol, right?” Martin smiled and

changed the topic

“I promise I won’t do that again.”

“Oh, right!”

Then something came across Killian’s mind, who then took out an exquisite small wooden box and opened it,

revealing a beautiful necklace with a crown shaped pendant.

“This is Rosa’s favorite item among all her dowries back then. She asked me to give the necklace to the girl who

Martin brings back to the family.”

The crown was made up of 999 top-grade diamonds, which made it look extremely beautiful.

Paige knew that the necklace was famous all over the world in the past because of the diamonds and its designer,

which cost them a good 300 million dollars to make the necklace.

And now, it was worth far more than that price.

“I can’t accept such a valuable gift

Then Killian interrupted, “This is a gift Rosa wants to give to Martin’s wife. You have to accept it! If she is here now, I

believe she would have already put it on for you…”

As Killian was speaking, the mention of Rosa Garcia, Martin’s grandma, saddened him.

Noticing that the light in Killian’s eyes had dimmed, Paige turned to look at Martin.

“A few years ago, Rosa had a car accident. She was reduced to a vegetative state because of that,” Martin

explained

calmly

Although Rosa was alive, she couldn’t do anything.

She couldn’t move, talk, or feel pain.

They had invited countless famous doctors. But none could do anything about Rosa’s condition.

“Martin put it on for Paige.”

Noticing that Paige refused to accept it, Killian handed the box to Martin and muttered, “I don’t know how much

longer I can be alive to watch you walk down the aisle. I felt that I was dying several times. If it were not for Rosa..”

Page was toured upon hearing this

Ahihi. Killian, Let s not talk about this today while Mrs. Stowe is here.”

Neil didn t want Killian s sadness to worsen his condition.

Right. Paige is here. Let’s not talk about this!”

Killian gave a smile again.

“Come here. I’ll put it on for you.”

Martin took out the necklace with his slender fingers as he moved closer to Paige.

Paige could smell the faint fragrance emitting from him. She wanted to turn it down but did not have the heart to

do so due to Killian’s expectant eyes and what Killian had just said.

“It’s very beautiful.”

Martin’s eyes swept across Paige’s facial features. Her gorgeousness, starry eyes, and fair-skinned slender neck

made it look like the beautiful and delicate crown was tailor-made for her

“It suits you very well.”

Martin raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes gentle like water.

“It would be great if Rosa could see this,” Killian said.

Martin’s lips curved slightly. “Paige, I will take you to visit her one day.”

Paige was surprised.

But Killian was happy upon hearing this. “Great!

“Bring me along as well! Paige, when can I be discharged from the hospital?”

Paige answered, “In three more days if your condition stabilizes.”

“Remember to pick me up then. I’ll go with you to visit Rosa.”

Paige thought for a moment. “OK.”

She thought, maybe I can help with Rosa’s condition.

Killian became cheerful and continued to chat away with them for a while. Before leaving, Paige took out an

exquisite

vial from her pocket.

“Killian, this is for you.”

Killian did not expect that he would receive a gift from Paige. Therefore, he took it and asked in anticipation, “What

is this?”

“Pills. Take one pill a month for half a year. It will make you healthier and live longer

“Haha! That sounds precious. It must be very expensive, right? Paige, where did you get this?”

Killian did not expect Paige would be so considerate. For a senior like him, health was all that mattered.

Despite all his wealth, Killian wanted nothing but a longer life.

And Paige knew about that!

Can I have one now.

Killian opened the vial impatiently before tilting it, wanting to pour one pill out. But a lot of them ran out into his

hand due to his excitement.

Noticing there was the word “longevity” on each pill, Rhys was shocked, thinking, aren’t those the Longevity Pill

which caused a sensation in the auction?

It is said that the pills can make people stronger and live longer lives. And only one pill is up for auction every

several months.

One pill cost Soo thousand dollars.

But why does Ms. Tate have such expensive and rare stuff in such large quantities?

If she bought all the pills at auction, it would take her years to collect so many of them, right?

And the point is, Ms. Tate is too young to need this.

Then why would she spend so much money on the pills and take them with her like this?

Unless…

Unless she made the pills herself!

That way, she could have as many as she wanted!

At the thought of this, Rhys looked at Martin in disbelief. Martin recognized the pills as well, his gaze deepening.

Martin thought, it seems that she is the famous druggist in the field of medicine, Mr Paige

Many of the sought-after medicines in previous auctions should have come from her

That explained a lot about why she showed up in the church near the auction that day.

Because that day, she had been to the auction as well.

At the thought of this, Martin smiled. He never expected that Paige could manage to hide her light under a bushel

so

well.

“Killian, you are lucky enough to have the pills!”

Rhys couldn’t help but hint at something.

“I think I am,” Killian replied.

Then Killian took a pill. “It’s sweet and delicious. I’m lucky that Paige has given me so many of them. Paige, is there

any collateral damage if I eat too many of them? Can I have one pill a day?”

“Don’t…” Rhys said.

(“No.” Martin said as well.

“Why?” Killian looked at the two of them in confusion.

Rhys hesitated, thinking, what a waste to have such expensive pills like this!

“Take one pill a month, like Paige says,” Martin added subtly.

“Alright…”
