Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo

“Say something!” Patrick bellowed, incensed at being ignored. Sheila stole a glance at Davin who coughed uncomfortably. “My brother’s been busy. We haven’t seen him at all.”

“I don’t think that’s true. Sheila told me over the phone earlier that you were in Imperial Garden.” “We did, but Evan wasn’t there. He must have left to meet clients. Nicole said that he’ll only be back in two days.”
