She Became Rich After Divorce (Cheyenne and Kelvin) novel Chapter 81

Chapter 81: Both Have Herniated Discs

Cheyenne glanced at the tall black figure still standing by the door. Out of the corner of her eye she saw his strikingly handsome face looking pensive as if deep in thought.

He did not believe that she saved him three years ago; if it were Abbie saying this instead, would he hesitate before believing her?

Cheyenne chuckled at the thought, her red lips curling into a dismissive smirk.

"Mr. Foley, you're busy with work. If you don't mind, please leave now," she said without looking at him.

Kelvin took a deep look at both of them and sneered inwardly. This woman was really despicable. Just now she insisted on helping him suck out venom, but now she didn't hesitate to drive him away when she saw her lover. What? Afraid of him disturbing their alone time?

"As you said, we're even." The man coldly said that and left with his assistant Chris, his tall figure proud and resolute.

"Cheyenne, what are you looking at?" Reece saw her in a daze and waved a big hand in front of her eyes.

But Cheyenne seemed unresponsive as she continued to stare down the empty hallway.

Slowly coming back to reality, "It's nothing. By the way, please don't tell my grandfather about this."

It was probably too late for that...

"Don't tell me what? The fact that you were trying to act tough?" Suddenly came Layne's angry voice from outside the door.

The next moment, he walked in wearing a black suit and cloth shoes. His cold eyes glanced at Cheyenne's pale face, and his heart softened slightly.

"Grandpa? What are you doing here?" She was surprised and glanced at Reece beside her, her eyes filled with questioning made him break out in a cold sweat, and he quickly shook his head, "It wasn't me."

"Don't mind him. Mr. Todd called me to let me know that you were bitten by a snake."

As Layne approached, Reece stood up respectfully and helped the old man to sit in his own seat.

The old man patted Reece's head with satisfaction. "Not bad, you're a good kid."

Back to the topic at hand - the snake.

Layne remembered the snake being kept in a cage, so how did it suddenly escape?

"According to what the Todd family explained, because it rained last night and the air was humid, the snake took advantage of when no one was watching and crawled out of a small hole on the wall."

The snake belonged to Master Davon Todd - could he have ordered it to attack Cheyenne?

Cheyenne thought carefully about her encounter with the snake before being bitten but shook her head.

"Grandpa, before I got bitten by the snake, Master Davon talked to me in the pavilion."

Reece looked at Layne confusedly as they both had no idea what she meant.

"Cheyenne, what did Master Davon say?"

She sneered dismissively, "What else could he say? He first expressed gratitude insincerely, then asked about what's going on inside Iker's Estate."

"When I told him that Iker's leg was incurable, he had a clear expression of relief on his face."

"He also wants to win me over, so this definitely wasn't his idea. As for Kelvin, he just had bad luck and happened to run into this situation."
