Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 799

We’ll spend the remaining time together and create as many memories as possible! Even if we have to be separated in the future, I’ll hold on to the precious memories we have!

Nicole felt a strong urge to figure out the thing that Evan was up to at the very moment that the particular thought had crossed her mind. Thus, she sneaked her way over to the study room.

Inside the study room, Evan was in the middle of something; he had his eyes glued to the computer in front of him.

I suppose that he’s still having a hard time because of Seet Group’s crisis.

She contemplated for a few seconds. In the end, she made her way in and asked, “Evan, are you busy? When are you getting off of work?”

“It’s going to take me some time to have everything sorted out! You should go to bed ahead of me.” Evan raised his head and stared at her, finishing his sentence in a callous tone.

Out of the blue, Nicole rushed over and wrapped her arms around him from behind. “I’ll keep you company!”

He recalled the scent of tobacco that he had detected again as soon as he saw her pair of skinny arms.

Furrowing his brows, he thought of something and asked, “Nicole, have you encountered Levant these past few days?”

Evan found his question somewhat abrupt. He couldn’t predict the sort of answer that Nicole had in store for him.

Holding his breath, he focused intently in anticipation of Nicole’s reply.

On the other hand, Nicole was dumbstruck for a few seconds. She hesitated for a short while but replied determinedly in the end, “Nope!”

Why is she trying to keep me in the dark? What is it about? Why can’t she tell me about it?

He got frustrated and shrugged her off, telling her callously, “You should go to bed.”

Nicole was at sixes and sevens because of Evan’s sudden change of attitude.

She gave it a thought and ruled out the possibility of him bringing Levant up in front of her.

Frowning, she felt a sense of despair because he sounded as though he had figured out something.

Nevertheless, she was determined to keep him in the dark because she couldn’t afford to let him know of the things that had been going on behind the scene these days.

Closing her eyes to collect her thoughts, Nicole tried to think of an alternative that would allow her to stay away from Levant.

She had a great time in the bathtub; halfway through her bath in the dreamlike bathroom, she fell asleep.

By the time she woke up, the water that she had been submerging in had turned frigid. She rubbed her drowsy pair of eyes and frowned as she stared at herself.

Did Evan ignore me? Why didn’t he bring me back to the bed? How could he do this to me?

Feeling aggrieved, the frustrated woman brought herself out of the bathtub and put on her set of pajamas before walking out of the bathroom.

The moment she returned to their bedroom, she was shocked because Evan wasn’t in bed yet. Does that mean that he’s still in the study room? Is he still working in the middle of the night?

Suddenly, she shuddered and started to sneeze consecutively. It was at that moment that she figured out that she must have caught a cold after submerging in the cold bath for so long.

Immediately, she searched for a thick jacket and put it on before heading over to the study room. Indeed, she was right; Evan was still in the middle of his work.
