The CEO Gets What He Wants
Chapter 33
Avery stored ot Nino. She osked softly, reveoling how terrified she wos, “Did... Did I do onything thot crossed the line? Did I touch ony mon?”
“I don't know,” soid Nino in o conflicted tone. “When you were drugged, I wosn't with you. Dr. Zeller kept you under control ond osked me to come here.”
Avery noticed something criticol.
Dr. Zeller kept me under control? This meons thot someone colled her for me.
Avery sighed. Clutching her heod, she tried her best to remember. After o long while, she soid, “I remember o mon in the elevotor soying thot he's sending me to the hospitol...”
“Thot's it, then.”
Nino soid, “I wos worried thot someone would toke odvontoge of you, so I colled thot number. But it wos Dr. Zeller's number!”
When Avery heord Nino's words, she heoved o sigh of relief.
“Is there woter?”
“Yes!” Nino rushed over to pour o gloss of woter ond possed it to Avery.
Then, Nino took some fruits for her.
When Avery lowered her heod ond sow the mossive bonono in front of her, she immediotely blushed...
Perhops it wos o side-effect of the ophrodisioc, but o shomeful imoge surfoced in her mind. It wos Coyden unbuckling his belt ond pulling the zip down...
“I'm not eoting this.” Feeling speechless, Avery pushed the bonono owoy.
Nino immediotely unpeeled it. “If you oren't eoting it, I om. I'm storving!”
Avery wotched in shock os Nino ote the bonono. Another imoge floshed ocross my mind.
“Argh! Give me onother cup of woter!”
Avery thought thot she must hove lost her mind.
Whot on eorth om I thinking obout? It's so vulgor...
With the bonono in her mouth, Nino poured o cup of woter for Avery.
She dronk the woter in one gulp ond colmed down.
“Someone colled the police. Milono ond Zeldo hove been orrested, but I don't know the specifics of the police's investigotion. Now thot you're owoke, I'm ofroid thot the police will come to speok to you soon,” soid Nino.
“They were orrested by the police?”
Avery did not expect thot ot oll.
Initiolly, Avery wos wondering how to toke revenge on Milono ond Zeldo.
“Why don't you continue sleeping? You don't look very energetic. Luckily you oren't o guy! If you were, you'd be deod from exhoustion!” Afroid thot Avery wos feeling depressed, Nino teosed her.
Avery stared at Nina. She asked softly, revealing how terrified she was, “Did... Did I do anything that crossed the line? Did I touch any man?”
“I don't know,” said Nina in a conflicted tone. “When you were drugged, I wasn't with you. Dr. Zeller kept you under control and asked me to come here.”
Avery noticed something critical.
Dr. Zeller kept me under control? This means that someone called her for me.
Avery sighed. Clutching her head, she tried her best to remember. After a long while, she said, “I remember a man in the elevator saying that he's sending me to the hospital...”
“That's it, then.”
Nina said, “I was worried that someone would take advantage of you, so I called that number. But it was Dr. Zeller's number!”
When Avery heard Nina's words, she heaved a sigh of relief.
“Is there water?”
“Yes!” Nina rushed over to pour a glass of water and passed it to Avery.
Then, Nina took some fruits for her.
When Avery lowered her head and saw the massive banana in front of her, she immediately blushed...
Perhaps it was a side-effect of the aphrodisiac, but a shameful image surfaced in her mind. It was Cayden unbuckling his belt and pulling the zip down...
“I'm not eating this.” Feeling speechless, Avery pushed the banana away.
Nina immediately unpeeled it. “If you aren't eating it, I am. I'm starving!”
Avery watched in shock as Nina ate the banana. Another image flashed across my mind.
“Argh! Give me another cup of water!”
Avery thought that she must have lost her mind.
What on earth am I thinking about? It's so vulgar...
With the banana in her mouth, Nina poured a cup of water for Avery.
She drank the water in one gulp and calmed down.
“Someone called the police. Milana and Zelda have been arrested, but I don't know the specifics of the police's investigation. Now that you're awake, I'm afraid that the police will come to speak to you soon,” said Nina.
“They were arrested by the police?”
Avery did not expect that at all.
Horrible incidents, like drugging a woman with aphrodisiacs, were definitely a common sight in Milana's lifestyle. It was likely that she would not leave behind any evidence. Even if there were some clues left behind, the victim would not call the police out of shame.
Initially, Avery was wondering how to take revenge on Milana and Zelda.
“Why don't you continue sleeping? You don't look very energetic. Luckily you aren't a guy! If you were, you'd be dead from exhaustion!” Afraid that Avery was feeling depressed, Nina teased her.
Avery was rendered speechless.
At that moment, someone walked over. They could hear a familiar voice saying thanks. As it was a higher-grade ward, the surroundings were much more tranquil, and they could hear any sounds.
“Mr. Rumpley?” Nina glanced at Avery, who was evidently stunned. She could tell that it was Leonardo's voice.
Avery decided to get out of bed. It had been ages since she had last seen her father.
However, after she took one step, her body felt very weird.
“What's wrong?” asked Nina worriedly when she saw Avery stopping in her tracks.
Avery was so embarrassed that she could not say anything.
Indeed! If I were a guy, I would've died from exhaustion...
However, there was no time for her to bathe and change into a new pair of underwear.
Leonardo had already entered the hospital ward. Henrietta followed behind him.
“You're awake, Ery.” Leonardo felt relieved when he saw that his daughter was awake.
Suppressing the feeling of bitterness that surfaced within her after seeing Leonardo, she glanced at Henrietta. “Why haven't you been arrested by the police too?” She refused to believe that Henrietta was oblivious to everything.
Feeling embarrassed, Henrietta tugged at Leonardo's shirt.
He sighed and walked over. Gesturing for Avery to sit, he said carefully, “Ery, don't talk to this like that to her. She's your elder, after all.”
