Twin Treasures: The CEO Wife's 99-Day of Revelations

It’s fine to be the King, and it’s also fine not to be the King; it’s this kind of attitude. But most importantly, one must live a pleasant life.

After Jocelyn Morgan entered the reception hall, the builder said to her, ”Miss Morgan, CEO Kingston is upstairs.”

”Okay, thank you.” She went directly upstairs and took five minutes to find Justin Kingston, as there were too many rooms on that floor.

After entering the room, she didn’t greet immediately but lifted her eyes to observe something.

”There are no cameras here; we’ve already checked,” Justin Kingston said to her. ”What’s the situation there? Have you found everything out?”

Jocelyn quickly took out a note from her pocket and handed it to him. ”He said this is for Mia.”

”Alright.” Justin took it and put it in his pocket, without asking more or opening it.

Neither of them showed the slightest curiosity about the note’s content.

Then Jocelyn told him about Ian Shelby’s situation, ”The King has been poisoned with a slow-acting poison, and the poisoning has been going on for five years. Obviously, the culprit is right by his side and is someone very close to the King.”

Justin Kingston was shocked. Poisoning the King?

”CEO Kingston, can you...” Jocelyn suddenly became a bit unsettled, losing the composure she had just moments ago.

”In Lorelei, just call me brother. You must adapt to this identity.” Justin withdrew his gaze from her and sat on the sofa, picking up his cup of tea, still contemplating the matter of the King’s poisoning.

This relates to a coup, tied to the fate of a nation.

Jocelyn felt overwhelmed with emotion, she pressed her lips together, ”Brother, are you willing to help him?”

”I’m helping,” Justin looked up, ”We’ve all brought people in, and if a King can be killed, how can this country remain stable? Even for the sake of the citizens, the culprit must be uncovered.”

His sense of justice moved Jocelyn deeply.

”He hopes I can stay by the King’s side. The specific plan is still unclear, taking it one step at a time,” Jocelyn told him. ”Maybe, he’s doubting everyone around the King.”

”Hmm.”

”And also,” Jocelyn told him, ”he’s buying all those flowers and plants just to cover up the medicinal herbs he’s bringing in. He’s trying to find a way to detoxify the King.”

Justin listened seriously as she spoke, also analyzing, ”Jocelyn, no matter what, it’s best to keep your relationship hidden for now, or you’ll become his weakness.”

”Yes, I know.”

Justin realized the severity of the situation and told her earnestly, ”This is a war without smoke and fire; no one can afford to drop their guard.”

”Yes.” Jocelyn also realized it, ”Don’t worry, I definitely won’t cause him any trouble.”

Thinking of trouble, she thought of another matter and spoke again, ”By the way, there’s one more thing... I want to tell you.”

”Go ahead.” Justin looked up at her.

Jocelyn remembered the young man she met just now and told him, ”When I was coming to find you earlier, I ran into Princess Catherine and a young man, and that man gave me a peculiar look. I had seen him before at a cafe.”

”A young man?” Justin didn’t know who it was, but guessed in his heart, could it be Catherine’s son?

”He gave me a peculiar look. Last time at the cafe we bumped into each other. I even said sorry to him, so he must have quite a strong impression of me, therefore... I didn’t come with you, he should know.”

Justin nodded, having some understanding, ”I got it. Go prepare yourself, there’s a banquet tonight, and the King will attend. Someone prepared a gown for you, go try on one you like.”

”Okay.”

Since Jocelyn was with Justin, her accommodation was also arranged here.

It was actually only about 200 meters from Ian Shelby’s palace. She stood by the window, looking out, she could see the newly moved-in flowers and plants in the yard, so close yet seemingly separated by mountains and rivers.
