Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 1758

Chapter 1758 Retreat

It was their first time encountering someone like Juan. Even the leader of the group was stunned by Juan’s ability.

If things kept progressing that way, he feared that Juan would learn all of their moves. In his haste, he cried out, “Stop fighting! Retreat!”

When the one fighting Draven heard that order, he swiftly retreated. In a blink of an eye, the masked men left the scene.

“That’s so sudden,” Draven voiced out his confusion.

“They’re scared that Juan will learn their moves,” Evan explained, having realized what happened.

“Then should we go after them?” Damien asked.

Juan sighed. “I’m afraid we can’t catch up to them. However, I’ve managed to steal a pack of powder from them during the fight. I don’t know what it is, but we can take it back to let Mommy analyze it.”

Everyone then looked at Juan’s palm, where a small white pack of powder lay.

“If only this is the antidote. Jeremy wouldn’t need to suffer after having it,” Draven muttered.

“It’s more likely to be some kind of toxin. They must have it with them at all times for their battles,” Damien analyzed.

“Even if it’s some kind of toxin, we should bring it back to let Mommy analyze it. Maybe we’ll be able to find out if it’s the antidote.”

“You’re right, Mr. Juan.”

Thus, they brought the pack of powder back to Nicole.

Thinking that it was the antidote, Darius and Jensen gasped. “You’ve gotten the antidote so easily?”

“We don’t know if this is the antidote or toxin. Mommy, take a look.”

After taking the pack from her son, Nicole carefully opened it and took a tiny whiff. It was tasteless and odorless.

It was the first time she had ever come across a kind of drug that was completely odorless.

“There’s no smell at all. I can’t tell what it’s made of. It seems like I’ll have to use some tools to find out.”

The others furrowed their brows when they heard her.

“Of course.”

Evan then brought Nicole away.

The two rushed all the way to their destination. On their way there, Evan asked Nicole about Jeremy’s condition.

Nicole sighed. “About what you’ve heard—about how Jeremy gets to live for another two months—I don’t think that’s true.”

Evan had been equally suspicious about that statement when he first heard about it on the mountain. Those words had been their excuse not to give them the antidote.

Therefore, they still had to find a way to get the antidote.

Otherwise, Jeremy might really be six feet under two months later.

“Nicole, is it tough for you to do so many things?”

Nicole turned to look at him. “It’s not. I’m a doctor, and it’s my job to help the ill and the hurt. Moreover, the patient right now is Jeremy.” At that, she suddenly thought about Faye. I wonder how she is now.
