Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo

Did Daddy agree or disagree? Juan began to think over his father’s earlier words.

Since Daddy said ‘okay’ just now, he would probably do it soon.

He then strode out of Evan’s bedroom happily.

After the door was shut, Evan turned to look at the urn of ashes and muttered, “Nicole, you saw Juan, right? You were the one who had raised him single-handedly. He’s such a sensible boy.”

Then, he paused for a brief moment and urged, “Nicole, let’s go to sleep now.”

After he switched off the lights, he laid on the bed and hugged the urn tightly to sleep.

The night passed by very slowly.

As the moon shone on Evan’s white and fluffy bed, he remained curled up on the bed while he protected the urn in his arms. His silhouette appeared both lonely and desolate.

At dawn, Evan woke up and got ready to move the urn to Imperial Garden.

The previous night, he had dreamt of Nicole looking down at him in disappointment. He speculated that she didn’t want to stay in Hillside Villa, afraid that the children might see her sad.

There will be someone to look after her in Imperial Garden, and she wouldn’t have to worry about the kids seeing her sad. No one would bother her there.
