You Are The Apple of My Eyes
Chapter 528 Please His Mother-in-law

Noah didn't listen to John's advice and only comforted him instead. "Don't worry about me. I've brought the doctor here."

"I'm not worried about you," John spat. His eyes softened when he saw the attending doctor.

Noah smiled, "You pay."

Without saying anything, John walked straight to the doctor and asked, "How's his injury?"

"The wound is healing. He just needs to take the medication. The stitches can be removed after a few days."

"Okay. Can he exercise?" John faintly asked.

"Err..." The doctor looked back and forth between the two people with an anxious expression. "Strenuous exercise will tear the wound so he can't do any of that." Noah pricked up his ears and felt that something was strange. While he was still lost in thought, he heard John's voice.

"Come with me."

"Where are we going?" Noah suddenly snapped out of his trance.

John didn't say a word and just signaled for Noah to follow.

Noah looked at Nina helplessly. She quickly asked, "Where are you going?"

"I don't know. Ask him." Noah raised his head and motioned at the man in front of him.

The doctor intervened, anxiously shouting, "No, you can't do strenuous activities."

John turned around as soon as he heard Nina speak, and glared at the doctor. The poor doctor was so terrified that he almost jumped out of his own skin.

"Noah and I will investigate that matter." As he looked over at his love, his eyes softened again and his fiery anger settled.

Nina smiled. "Okay, take care. That goes for you as well, Noah."

"I know. You rest up at home, okay?" Noah smiled and followed John, side by side.

They arrived at Moon Bay, where Demi lived.

It seemed to be unnaturally under surveillance for some reason. It took them incredibly long to just enter, but they finally arrived at Demi's villa. It was a hollow victory in the end though because they couldn't get in.

With the swarm of security patrolling the area, they couldn't find an opportunity to climb over the wall. They walked around the villa and could only stand and wait until the night.

Since Noah was injured, John was the only one that could climb over the wall.

From the safety of the darkness, Noah watched as John climbed over the wall and onto the balcony. His mind was cast back to the time in Lexingport City when John was mistaken as a thief for climbing over the balcony to look for his wife.

'Look at how agile he moves. He has to credit Nini for that because of the countless times she didn't let him enter her apartment.'

The lights of the villa switched on and John opened the door from the inside.

After they were both inside, they shut the door. It seemed as if they were being watched as a figure emerged from the woods opposite the villa.

Covered by the shadows of the night sky, all that could be seen was a pair of fair skinny legs.

The woman picked up her phone and reported, "Jett, two people have entered my sister's house."

"Daisy, don't worry. I will handle it. You just wait and I'll send someone to bring you back to the hotel to stay for a while." Jett didn't seem to be flustered at all and in fact sounded quite calm and gentle. Daisy Ding turned around and went out. She said worriedly, "Jett, my sister hasn't shown up for several days now. You have to save her."

"Your sister will be back in a couple days. Don't worry. Try not to leave the hotel when you get there though. If anyone finds you and questions you, just tell them the truth. It doesn't matter what you say, you'll be safe. I'm your brother-in-law; you trust me right?" Jett continually tried to coax her.

Daisy nodded and said, "I trust you. I believe my sister will be fine."

"Good girl, that's it." Jett hung up the phone.

Demi's villa was two stories high, but it wasn't that big in actuality. It was warmly decorated and felt very homey.

While Noah looked around, he stumbled across the shoe cabinet. It was filled with women's shoes, but there were two different sizes.

"Demi doesn't live alone. She probably has a sister."

"Maybe it's a friend of hers." John looked around the hall and showed the photo frame to Noah.

It was a picture of Daisy and Demi on their travel.

Noah took it and nodded in agreement. "Their faces and even skin tone look quite different though. They really don't look like biological sisters." The two of them observed for a while in the hall on the first floor and then went upstairs. Noah went to Daisy's room and John went into Demi's.

After searching for around half an hour, they finally left. They exited Moon Bay and Vicente drove them to Scher Mountain.

Arriving there, John felt a wave of guilt flush his body. He had the sudden thought that he had wronged Nina.

North Yard paled in comparison to the majesty of Scher Mountain.

Even though North Yard was the most lavish mansion in Lexingport City, it still didn't hold a candle to the royal family's castle.

While he sat at the dining table, there was so much more than just invaluable tableware and delicacies at every meal. The treatment that Nina received was incredible. It made John think that he in fact hadn't been treating her well enough at all.

'The only servants at North Yard are Richard and others, with Helen being the only chef. Nothing compares to what the royal family has.

Nina always wears customized clothes that put the designer clothes to shame.

My little girl grew up in the rich royal family of C Island. She has always enjoyed the best treatment that anyone could offer. Being with me is like a step down.'

John didn't believe that she was too good for him or anything. After all, he was an excellent man, but he was just afraid of not giving her what she wanted.

John swore to himself that he'd treat Nina a whole lot better from that moment onwards.

His parents-in-law didn't show up, which made John relieved. 'To be honest, I was really afraid that I couldn't handle them.

My father-in-law seems to be fine. He is kind and loves Nina a lot, but my mother-in-law is the difficult one to deal with. She is so aloof."

John had been pondering about how he was going to win his mother-in-law all the time. He walked back to his room absent-mindedly after dinner. Vicente and Nina played with the children, making them laugh. Even though it was already nine o'clock, the kids didn't sleep.

Usually, Van and Don would have already fallen asleep at this hour.

"What are you thinking about?" Leon walked beside John as they paced down the hallway.

While John was still pondering, he answered without any hesitation, "How do I please my aloof mother-in-law?"

As soon as the words slipped out of his mouth, he came back to his senses. He awkwardly turned his head to see Leon holding back his laughter. John avoided any eye contact to try and play it off. "I was just wondering."

Leon didn't bother exposing John's blatant lie. 'It's amazing how a thirty-year-old man can lose his mind over the woman he loves. It's quite cute.'

"My mother isn't actually aloof to everyone," Leon said. "She loves her husband more than her children. Just like you, if someone wants to make you happy, they just need to make my sister happy and that's enough to fix everything."

John glanced at him and suddenly had a brilliant thought.
