Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo Chapter 1238
As soon as Davin said that, he caught a glimpse of Levant, who looked pale and uneasy. The look on his face was horrible. At this very moment, Levant’s heart had turned icy cold.
When he found out that Nicole was pregnant with her second child, he knew very well he should give up and move on. Be that as it may, he couldn’t resist being uncomfortable when being shown the evidence of Nicole and Evan’s intimate moments.
His affection toward Nicole was one of the worst hurdles that he had to overcome.
“Nicole and I are deeply in love. We will not be separated. Not this lifetime, next lifetime, or any lifetime, for what it’s worth,” Evan replied.
While the message was slightly less impactful, Levant was still jealous. He blurted, “Evan, are you trying to hint something to me?”
Evan replied, “Well, you’re not wrong to think that way.”
Levant answered unhappily, “I don’t bear any hope toward being with Nicole anymore, so there’s no need to send me such message!”
“Well, if you no longer hold any hope, why would you think that the message is directed toward you?”
“Exactly. If you’ve really moved on, then why won’t you marry Tiffany? If a woman can’t get the man that she loves, then she’ll be pickier when it comes to her next partner. However, men are different. If a man can’t get the woman he loves, he’ll become less selective of his partner and will end up marrying any woman. If you’ve really moved on, then why can’t you marry Tiffany?”
After a moment of awkward silence, Levant stood up and rebutted angrily, “These are two separate matters. Even though I’m not hoping to get together with Nicole, that doesn’t mean I’ll simply marry any woman. If that was the case, I’ll be better off single and alone.” Then, he stormed off furiously.
Davin let out a sigh while watching his retreating figure. It was so obvious that Levant had not moved on. What magical powers does Nicole possess? How is Levant so deeply in love with her?
He then turned his gaze toward Evan and reminded the latter, “Evan, you must treat Nicole well. Your love rival is playing for the long game. If there’s any room for him to get between the two of you, then—”
“You’re overthinking it. Nicole does not have any feelings toward him,” Evan immediately brushed away Davin’s concern.
“What if? You can never say for sure. Some women are soft-hearted and can marry a guy in the heat of the moment.”
At that, Evan stood up. “Don’t worry about it. Nicole is not Renee. She has her own principles and will not be moved so easily.”
When Davin heard that, he became offended. Is he implying that Renee got together with me in the heat of the moment?
As if! For your information, Renee is very much in love with me! Besides, I’m still a very attractive man!
Watching Evan’s silhouette as he walked away, Davin chased after him and yelled, “Evan, you’re wrong! Renee is truly in love with me, it wasn’t a rash move…”
He followed Evan to the guest room, trying to explain his relationship with Renee along the way.
Evan, on the other hand, didn’t seem to be bothered. He ushered Davin back to his room to rest.
“Evan, don’t you get it? Renee is—” Davin continued to babble relentlessly.
Evan had to interject, “It doesn’t really matter. Let me ask you this—If I record what you’re saying now and send it to Sheila, can she understand?”
It was effective. Almost immediately, Davin stopped talking. Then, he bowed before retreating back to his room.
Sheep can never find out about this, or all hell will break loose!
The following day…
At the break of dawn, the group had their breakfast and headed toward the Nepenthe Valley.
Davin suggested letting a few of the bodyguards check if the path ahead was safe. They reckoned they should only continue if it was safe enough to do so.
Evan, however, felt that it was unnecessary. Even if there was a problem, it was a risk that they must take to retrieve the antidote for Nina.
Thus, they warily maneuvered the bumpy and curvy road. With their senses heightened, they cautiously observed the surroundings.
