Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo

According to his plan, the round-shaped object would rolled away from the pavilion toward Daphne when she reached the area later.

As for himself, he would act like he only passed by the area by chance. When he spotted the rolling ball, he would lunge forward and stop it from hitting Daphne. Then, he would pretend to be injured because of the ball.

The final part of the plan, which was also the most crucial one, involved convincing her to seek help from her acupuncture master. In that way, Evan would be able to find out her master’s identity and to see whether he was Nicole’s biological father.

While waiting for Daphne the protagonist, he used the time to run through every step of his plan in his mind to familiarize with them.

He glanced at his watch and reckoned Daphne was on her way over to the garden.

Immediately, he hid himself somewhere off the beaten track.

Eight minutes later, Daphne indeed arrived at the garden as per his expectation.

Just as Daphne was reaching the middle of the garden, the huge ball indeed rolled out from the pavilion at a high speed in her direction.

Meanwhile, Nicole was stupefied when she saw that. Just moments earlier, she caught Evan staring at the round-shaped object, but she had no idea that the thing would move by itself and charge toward Daphne all of a sudden.

Is Evan actually trying to injure Daphne to avenge my grievance instead of seducing her?

A surge of warmth filled up her heart in an instant. Just as she was straining her eyes to see whether the round-shaped object was going to hit Daphne, Evan suddenly materialized out of nowhere and grabbed the ball to stop it from hitting Daphne.

Seeing his reaction, Nicole’s eyes widened in shock.

Seems like I was overthinking just now. This is nothing but a well-planned scheme of Evan made in an attempt to seduce Daphne!
