Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo Chapter 1231
“Well, I want some fruits,” Nicole commented without a second thought.
“Buy some fruits and also supplements for pregnant women. Get a lot of them and make sure that they’re expensive!” Sheila added.
Davin nodded. “Sure. I’ll be going then.” As he finished his reply, he showed Sheila his palm, gesturing for her to give him money.
“Davin, what you’ll be buying should be from the heart. That means you need to use your own money to be sincere!”
“You took all of my money from me. My pockets are emptier than it has ever been. How can I have any money?”
“You do have money! You definitely do!” Sheila glared at him.
Displeased, Davin stared back at her. “Sheep, you’ve gone out of line. You’re the one who suggested that I go buy stuff yet you don’t want to pay for it. A sheep like you can’t be this lazy now!”
It was a given for Sheila to be upset over Davin calling her Sheep again.
“Davin, if you call me by that one more time, I’ll have your lips sealed shut! Also, how can a grown man ask for money from a pregnant woman? Have you no shame?”
“Getting money from the pregnant woman who swiped all of my money clean isn’t shameless at all! Give me the money!”
It was reasonable for Davin to ask for money. After the bickering a few days ago, Sheila succeeded in obtaining the family’s assets, and he did not dispute it. Nevertheless, he decided to ask for money whenever he needed it. That way, once she was sick of him asking for money, his assets could potentially return to him one day.
That was why he would never let go of the chance to ask for money, like the current one.
The way he was acting like a debt collector made Sheila smirk. “Davin, if you insist on asking me for it, then it’s fine by me. Say goodbye to your secret stash of money. I’m going to confiscate it—all of it!”
“W-What secret stash? Sheep, you’d better not be accusing me!”
Seeing the way Davin was stumbling with his words made her chuckle. “Just look at you! You’re stuttering because you’re guilty! You can’t possibly think that I don’t know where it is.”
Sh*t! This sheep sure has some detective skills! Does she really know where it is?
“W-Well, s-so what if I do have a stash? Would you really take away such a small sum of money? You can’t be this heartless.”
“Davin, tell me—will your stash be emptied out just from buying fruits and things for pregnant women? Do you think I’m stupid?”
When he was about to retort, Sophia hollered, “Just go and buy them already! A man shouldn’t be dragging his feet like this over something trivial like shopping! In fact, you deserve to be taught a lesson!”
She walked over to him and stuffed a card in his hand. “Be sure to buy healthy and high-quality items that Sheila and Nicole like. Go on now!”
Davin gripped the card before nodding. “I’ll go immediately.” He flew out of the door the moment he finished speaking.
After getting into the car, he stared at the card in his hand, sighing in relief at the thought of Sophia treating him so well.
In the living room, Evan and Nina’s eyes met for a second before Nina went over to sit beside Nicole.
“Mommy, my last press conference for my product launch had problems, and I want the next one to be a success. Daddy got me a world-renowned teacher, and he wanted to take me to them to learn from them. Hence, Daddy and I are going to leave for some time. Will that be okay with you, Mommy?”
“Where are you going? Is it far? Nina, you’re unwell. Are you fine enough to travel long journeys?” Nicole responded with a myriad of questions.
“We’re going to Nalanica. Don’t worry; I’ll take good care of her,” Evan interjected.
Nicole still felt uneasy by the whole idea. “Why does it have to be now? Can’t you wait until she’s feeling better?”
They couldn’t wait as they needed to treat Nina’s poison quickly.
“Mommy, I really want to get away and do some sightseeing. My physical state will be better once my mood is better.”
Nicole fell silent. As she did not know about the poison, she thought that Nina’s current state was due to her state of mind and that it had something to do with Chris. With such a thought in mind, she found it reasonable for Nina to want to go traveling. She might get better once her state of mind is better.
