Chapter 197

After lunch. Theen held Nys in his arms, letting her sit on his lap. “Nyx, have you been feeling unwell lately?

Nyx was caught off guard by the question, her gaze shifting evasively.

Your appetite hasn’t been great recently. Theon noted.

“And you’ve been touching your stomach a lot, Erik added

Does your stomach hurt?

“Why didn’t you tell us?”

The males looked at her with concern.

“It’s not that bad, just a slight discomfort, Nyx murmured, pressing her lips together in a weak defense.

However, this symptom had been present even before she arrived on Earth. Thinking about it, it had been going on for over a month now.

For such a long duration, she really shouldn’t have taken it so lightly.

Reflecting on her oversight, Nyx decided to be honest with her mates and describe her symptoms.

Just as she was about to speak, the doorbell suddenly rang. It was Archie knocking.

The weather outside was scorching, and he was drenched in sweat. His face was flushed, either from the heat or excitement. “Nyx, you never cease to amaze me. They actually found something on that plot of land in Copward.”

He had been reluctant to give up the bid for that land, and when he later learned that his rival had acquired it, he was even more frustrated.

“You have no idea how smug that guy has been lately, constantly provoking me,” Archie said through gritted teeth.

Today, the construction on that land officially began, and he couldn’t resist going to check it out. He never expected to witness such a spectacle. “On the very first day of excavation, they had to halt construction. That guy’s face turned completely green–I nearly died laughing.”

Recalling his rival’s ashen face, Archie stood with his hands on his hips, laughing up at the sky.

A newly discovered ancient tomb meant the entire project was doomed. While there would be some compensation, it wouldn’t come close to covering the losses.

“Don’t feel bad for him, Nyx,” Archie waved dismissively. “That guy is just a greedy capitalist. I’d say this is karma for all the shady deals he’s done.”

“Unlike me,” he boasted smugly. “I never do bad things.”

That was why Nyx, his lucky charm, had helped him avoid this disaster.
