Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo

Evan, who was caught off guard by her sudden movement, eyed her in puzzlement.

Nicole extended her palms toward him.

In response, he frowned at it wondering what it was supposed to mean.

Is she proposing to make peace with me so that we could get along well with each other again?

Or, is she doing that because she would like to salvage her job?

Whichever it is, that’s a sensible decision.

At that thought, a trace of contentment emerged in his brooding eyes as he posed her the question, “I don’t understand what you’re trying to do.”

He wanted to hear his presumption from her mouth.

Seeing that his attitude was not as cold as how she expected, Nicole thought it was the perfect time for her to bring up the money’s issue. She spoke confidently and determinedly thinking that it was not necessary for her to be too tactful, “Please give me the money.”

Money?

Is she asking money from me or is she trying to borrow some?

Evan narrowed his eyes slightly when he queried, “How much do you want?”

“I charge five hundred per hour and one thousand for a whole day’s work. Mr. Seet, you may pay me the amount according to the hours I’ve worked for you.”

Turns out that she was asking for her salary. So I was wrong!
