Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo

Chapter 104

Gosh, she came prepared to sabotage the office. Don’t tell me this is the “surprise” she had in store? Oh my…

“John, give her an estimate of the losses here and get her to pay up immediately!”

“Understood, Mr. Seet.”

Evan then stormed out of his office.

John helped Nicole up and asked, “Ms. Lane, are you alright?”

Nicole cursed at John, “You double-crosser! Traitor!”

John was stunned and declared, “Ms. Lane, I really didn’t know things were rough between you and Mr. Seet… I wanted to help you because I thought things were getting better between you guys.”

Getting better?

Nicole scowled, “I’ll never see eye to eye with that cold-blooded psychopath! Not unless hell freezes over!” NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

John sighed. Looks like I was overly optimistic and read the room wrongly.

Nicole limped towards the lift using the wall as support. John offered her a hand, but was refused by Nicole time and again. When the lift arrived at the first story, John brought her to the finance department and calculated the losses she was required to compensate.

Nicole stared at the list and grumbled, “Are these made of diamonds? Why are they so expensive?”

“Ms. Lane, these are the actual prices. You can double-check with all of the suppliers if you wish.”

Nicole felt her heart ache when she saw the amount she had to compensate. She had to pay hundreds of thousands in addition to the amount she earned from translation. She had intended to save this money for her children to allow them to live a better life.

I can’t believe it’s all going down the drain like that… what a waste!

Worried that Evan would target Maya and Nina, Nicole paid the amount stated reluctantly.

When she thought of the balance in her account, she shuddered to imagine how she would pull through in the future.

When she left the office, John inquired apologetically, “Ms. Lane, is there anything I can help you with?”

He felt responsible as he was the one who convinced Nicole to return to the company. The documents for the collaboration with A Nation were more or less complete, but he did not expect this sudden turn of events.

John felt terrible when he thought of how she would be hounded by the Lane family after paying such a large sum of money.

Nicole snapped angrily, “Help? Sure you can!”

“What can I help with?”

“Are you really willing to help?”

John was taken aback and responded, “I’ll do anything within my ability!”

Nicole scorned, “In that case, help me blow up Evan’s office!”

Blow up… Mr. Seet’s office? I would never dare to do something like that! Nevermind, forget I said anything. Looks like Nicole won’t believe whatever I say from now on.

Nicole limped out of the office with aching kneecaps and saw Juan rushing towards her, out of breath.

She frowned, “What brings you here, Juan?”

I can’t believe Mommy recognized me as Juan immediately! I’ve been living in Hillside Villa as Kyle for the past two days!

He had planned to head over to the office to look for his mother after Davin sent him to the kindergarten.

However, for some reason, Davin was extremely cautious and insisted on sending him all the way to the classroom. The teacher was especially concerned about “Kyle” and kept talking to him. He only managed to reach the office at this timing as a result.

I thought Kyle would reach ahead of time, but seems to me he didn’t make it either! From the looks of it, Mommy’s been bullied by Daddy again!

“Mommy, did you lose to daddy in a fight? Don’t worry, I’ll avenge you!”

Nicole’s heart leaped to her throat. I can’t let Evan know of your existence! I won’t let you come into contact with him unnecessarily!

“It’s got nothing to do with him. I got careless and tripped on my own! Let’s go home.”
