Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo

Both Sheila and Davin thought that they should back away, given the situation. Things would only spiral even more out of control if they stayed there.

As such, Sheila feigned being tired and said that she wanted to go back and rest. Nicole deliberately walked closely behind Sheila and Davin when she walked the two of them out. She had a straight face on when she warned, “I know that the two of you are close to Evan, but you are in the Wicked Palace now. Please take Levant’s feelings into consideration when you speak or do anything. He looks so upset just now that I am genuinely worried about him kicking the two of you out.”

Sheila and Davin turned to one another. The same question popped into their minds. We’re the ones that said something to upset the guy? My gosh. Nicole, you’re so… Urgh, never mind. We can’t let Nicole know that the “Levant” standing next to her is actually Evan. Saying anything else is pointless because she won’t get it.

“We understand, Nicole,” replied Sheila with a somewhat stiff expression on. After that, she went back to her place with Davin.

Nicole sighed internally as she watched them leave. She later turned around and went back to the dining room.

The moment she returned, Nicole saw that “Levant” was still sitting there with a grouchy expression on. His sharp eyes had been glaring at her ever since she walked back in.

That look made her nervous.

“It’s late. You should go back and rest up.”

Nicole smiled after she asked him to leave. She thought that “Levant” would leave as requested, but to her surprise, he got up and walked toward her.
