Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo

“Well, well, well. If it isn’t Mr. Seet’s ex-girlfriend, Nicole Lane.”

Nicole raised her head to see a woman standing before her with her arms crossed in front of her chest. The other woman’s face was filled with disdain as she looked down her nose at Nicole.

She was the director of a small company that Nicole had refused to work with in the past—Sheryl.

Nicole barely glanced at Sheryl before ignoring the latter entirely. She continued to wipe the cream away from Maya’s face as if there was no one there.

Annoyed at being ignored, Sheryl scoffed and mocked, “What’s with the arrogant attitude? I thought Mr. Seet has already abandoned you? Do you seriously still think you’ll be able to marry into an influential family? Only in your dreams!”

“Is there something you want?” Nicole demanded impatiently.

“Can’t I just have a little chat with you? I heard Lane Corporation isn’t doing too well without Mr. Seet’s support. Luckily, you didn’t agree to work with us back then. Otherwise, it would be difficult to extricate ourselves from you now.”

Nicole gave her an amused look. “Extricate yourselves? Stop kidding yourself! Even if Lane Corporation is doing terribly, and lost all our business partners, there’s no way I’ll work with someone like you!”

“Stubborn b****!” Sheryl glanced at Maya before she sneered scornfully. “Hmph! So what if you gave birth to several bastards? Evan Seet still doesn’t want you! You’re just a worthless b****! Stop acting so haughty when you’re nothing!”

Maya’s head snapped around as she glared at Sheryl furiously. This bad woman actually called me a bastard and scolded Mommy! What a horrible person! She curled her fists tightly, gathering energy for her Maya Punch.
