Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 589

Daphne was furious. Heaving angrily, she screamed, “Skewered my foot! You jerk, you tortoise-head loser! Come out right now!”

“…”

The maids looked at each other in confusion. There was no one in the courtyard, so where had the mysterious voice come from?

With a murderous look on her face, Daphne ordered the maids to search the entire courtyard. However, the search turned up empty.

“Useless! The person is probably hiding out in the courtyard right now. Find him right now and make sure he turns up in front of me! I don’t care if you dig up the entire courtyard.”

As the maids searched around the courtyard for the mysterious intruder, Juan and Kyle snuck quietly into Daphne’s bathroom.

Maya and Nina felt a little worried. They wondered if they could succeed on this second mission.

The maids searched as hard as they possibly could, but the search returned nothing.

Daphne was beside herself with rage. She decided to change the team of security guards first thing tomorrow morning. This team was too incompetent.

After this, they didn’t hear the voice anymore. Daphne returned to her room.

She sat on her bed for a while, massaging her forehead. She felt as though her head had swelled to twice its size. Her blood circulation seemed pretty weak, too.

No, this wouldn’t do. She decided to take a bath to get rid of her headache before she went to sleep.

She got up and went into the bathroom. When the two boys saw her entering, they quickly hid more deeply in a corner, praying that she wouldn’t discover them.

Daphne took off her clothes. When the bathtub filled up completely with water, she lowered herself into it with a sigh of satisfaction. She shut her eyes, enjoying the pleasant sensation of the water lapping against her skin.

Juan snickered quietly. He took out a bag of white powder from his pocket and snuck some of it into the bathtub.

Daphne, who was still soaking in the water, suddenly felt her skin get itchier and itchier.

She opened her eyes, only to see that her skin was completely red. Every inch of her skin was covered with red spots.

How could this be?

Daphne widened her eyes in shock, realizing that there was something wrong with the water.

But she had just filled the bathtub with water! How could there be a problem with it?

Just as she was panicking over it, the two boys climbed onto the platform behind her and forced her head into the water.

Immediately, Daphne felt as though her face was on fire. Her first thought was, Is this going to ruin my looks?

The doctor of the estate hurried over and put her on an IV drip. He instructed Daphne to take lots of bed rest, watch her diet and ensure that she didn’t get exposed to too much wind. The substance that had been poured into the bathwater in huge amounts was a highly corrosive one. If Daphne didn’t follow his instructions, her skin might never recover—especially the wounds on her face.

“What about my face?” Daphne asked anxiously, as though she was asking about her own life.

If this face of hers was ruined, her future prospects would take a dramatic hit.

Hector, who was as handsome as a man could get, whose features looked as though they were crafted by angels, would want nothing to do with her in the future.

As the doctor gazed at her red face, he told her in a guarded tone that, no matter how hard he tried, her skin would never recover, and it was going to leave scars.

In actual fact, it was worse—she might even be disfigured. Taking her feelings into consideration, the doctor tried to soften the blow.

Daphne lay on the bed. Her eyes, which had been full of fear up till now, suddenly flashed with a sudden savageness. She ordered her maids to bring Lady Musgrave over.

When the latter saw how badly injured she was, her heart broke.

She had always regarded this niece of hers as her biological daughter.

“Daphne, my dear, what happened?”

Daphne reached out to grab Lady Musgrave’s hand. She burst into tears and cried out, “Aunt Portia, you have to take revenge for me! It was Nicole Lane and those horrible kids of hers who did this to me! Look what they’ve done to me!”
