My Mommy Is A CEO

Upon hearing the doctor’s words, Eve finally breathed a sigh of relief. She turned to Lauren and asked cautiously, “Lauren, can you help me carry my sister back to the ward?”

Lauren didn’t say anything but immediately picked up Nia as soon as Eve finished speaking. They headed towards the ward that had already been arranged.

Eve followed closely behind while holding her unconscious sister’s hand. Lauren glanced at her movements while walking, but his expression remained unclear and mysterious.

Nia was too tired and slept until dawn on the second day. Eve stayed by her side all night and frequently checked on Kevin in ICU whose condition had stabilized for fear that her sister might wake up any moment and ask about him.

Eve couldn’t leave, so Lauren couldn’t either.

Stoffer and Dely couldn’t rest alone either; they came to protect them in the hospital instead. The two tall foreign men stood outside the hospital room like door men – one on each side – scaring even cautious nurses who came to change medication.

When Nia woke up just before dawn, she saw that Eve had been lying next to her all night long while Lauren sat across from them with his eyes closed in deep concentration. Realizing that she had been watched over all night long by them made Nia feel touched for a moment.

After all, their parents were usually biased towards her younger sister. however, Eve had never distanced herself from Nia even slightly but always liked sticking around with her since childhood like a little tail whenever she wasn’t allowed out to play.

For the first time, Nia stared at Eve’s sleeping face with soft eyes in a daze, and didn’t notice when Lauren opened his eyes.

Lauren quietly examined Nia’s expression. He also had brothers and sisters, so he can read Nia’s eyes, but should he believe that Nia was really guilty of Eve? Impossible!

At this moment, Eve woke up with a whimper, and Lauren quickly closed his eyes.

“Nia! You’re awake?!” When she opened her eyes and saw her sister looking at her, Eve shouted happily.

“Hush!” Nia frowned suddenly, “Mr. Osade is still resting. Don’t disturb him!”

“Oh…” Eve replied embarrassedly, but she was still smiling because her sister finally woke up.

However, Nia was thinking something else then asking quietly, “Can you go call Mr. Osade over here? I want to see if he really is asleep.”

“Eh?! But weren’t you worried about waking him up just now?” asked puzzled-looking Eve.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Mr. Osade must be exhausted, maybe he fell asleep sitting down. I have something to talk to you about and it’s not good if he hears it, so can you confirm if he’s asleep?” Nia whispered to her sister.

Although Eve was skeptical, she still walked quietly over to Lauren and leaned in front of him, softly calling out, “Lauren, are you asleep?”

“If you whisper like that, how can he hear you?” Nia scolded irritably when her sister didn’t understand what she meant. “Speak louder! If he doesn’t wake up, then that means he’s really sleeping.”

“Oh…” Eve replied with a hint of disappointment before raising her voice and pushing Lauren’s shoulder with her hand. “Lauren? Are you awake?”

Of course the person pretending to sleep couldn’t be awakened. Confused by this fact, Eve turned around and said to her sister, “Nia, Lauren is really sleeping.”

Nia stared at Lauren for a few seconds before realizing that his eyes were tightly closed as if in deep sleep. She called Eve over and helped herself sit up straight.

“Eve, this time you have to help me!” After just sitting down again and seeing the puppy-like look on her sister’s face waiting for an answer from her; Nia carefully controlled the volume of her voice.

Eve immediately changed expression upon hearing this request but lowered her eyes without responding.

“Eve!” Nia quickly grabbed hold of Eve’s hand with pleading eyes saying,

“You saw what Casper did last time against Kevin and me! He almost killed me! Luckily Mr. Osade saved us both but now Casper is after us again! Unless we get rid of him once-and-for-all, I’ll never feel safe!”

Eve hesitated while glancing at Lauren, keeping quiet because his attitude had been very firm last night, so how could she ask him now? And besides… the phrase “get rid of”coming from Nia’s mouth made it sound like anything but simple.

Seeing that Eve wasn’t willing to respond yet again, Nia continued appealing emotionally,

“Eve… are you going let your sister die at the hands of Casper? We’re just ordinary people but Casper has many subordinates who are all gangsters from the underworld – as seen last time when they tried killing me!”

“But what can Lauren do?” Finally speaking up after much hesitation, she asked by curiosity or perhaps concern for their safety.

“Don’t forget that Mr. Osade isn’t only rich beyond measure. He also has other means. Just look at Stoffer and Dely’s skills. If only Mr. Osade would step forward, then getting rid off Casper would be easy-peasy!” Urgently explained by Nia.

“Nia, do you want… Lauren to kill him?” Eve hesitated to say these words that she thought she would never say in this life.

Without any hesitation, Nia nodded heavily, “Only when Casper is dead, can I be truly safe!”

“No way!” Eve immediately shouted when she heard this, but the next second her mouth was covered by Nia, afraid that she would wake up Lauren.

“Lower your voice!” Nia glared fiercely at Eve, who could only nod before she released her grip.

As soon as her mouth was free, Eve lowered her voice and said, “Nia, we can’t do this. Killing is illegal and wrong! I can’t ask Lauren to do this.”

“You also know that it’s wrong to kill? Then it’s right for Casper to kill me?!” Nia was so annoyed by Eve’s words, and her voice raised unconsciously,

“You just want to watch me die, right?!”

“I don’t…” Eve was extremely aggrieved. She simply didn’t want her sister to go astray. Society is indeed complex, but there are always other ways. If they had to kill each other when they were in opposition, then what was the point of having the rule of law? Eve understood these principles.

“That’s it! I knew you’ve been jealous of me all along, jealous of my health, jealous of my status, and jealous that I have everything you don’t!” Nia couldn’t control her temper as she glared at her well-meaning sister, feeling like she was just making excuses.

“Nia…” Eve’s eyes were about to turn red as she faced her sister’s rude accusation.

“What are you guys talking about? Why is it so noisy?” Just as Eve was on the verge of tears, Lauren suddenly opened his eyes and asked slowly.
