Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo

Sophia hugged her arms as she glanced sideways at Lisa. She was afraid that the woman was going to put her niece, Sofie, forward as a suitable partner for Evan.

“Your suggestion may be a sound one, but I’m concerned that the prospective party would be like Sofie with Evan– Unable to develop mutual feelings for each other despite being acquainted for many years.
