Chapter 558

Sonia explained, "Celine's father wasn't my biological son. He was adopted. Over the years, Carly has always been by Lucy's side, so naturally, Lucy treats her as her own daughter."

She offered a brief explanation.

Nigel didn't respond right away. Instead, he turned to Celine. "Celine, I'll believe you for now."

Celine said, "Thanks, Mr. Hampton."

"But I need you to cure Carly."

Celine arched her brow as she said, "Mr. Hampton, you just said you believe me. If I wasn't the one who poisoned her, why should I be the one to cure her?"

Lucy snapped, "Celine, do you think Mr. Hampton is being too polite with you?"

Sonia said, "Celine, you should know your place. No one talks to Mr. Hampton like that."

Celine ignored them both. She kept her gaze on Nigel and said, "Mr. Hampton, I have no obligation to cure Carly. Are you asking for my help?"

Nigel studied her, taking in her calm intelligence. Suddenly, he smirked.

She really was interesting. No one had ever spoken to him this way before. Nigel nodded. "Yes, I'm asking for your help. Celine, please cure my daughter."
