Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo

Chapter 18

He was no fool and knew very well that this woman was obviously holding back.

Judging from the time it took her to crack the first two firewalls, such a long period of time could have allowed her to at least do something to the last firewall even though it was of the advanced level.

He gave Nicole a cold look, walked into his bedroom, and then slammed the door shut.

What’s going on?

Confused, Nicole did not understand why he acted that way.

Blake, the butler, walked over and looked at her, saying, “Dr. Tussaud, maybe Kyle is too tired. You should go back first.”

Nicole thought for a while and nodded her head. Before coming over this morning, she had promised her three kids that she would take them to the kindergarten.

“Okay, I’ll come back tomorrow.”

When Evan returned from his office at noon, Nicole had already left.

He nodded in satisfaction after learning from Blake that Kyle had slammed the door in Nicole’s face.

Nicole must have made Kyle angry. That’s great!

I’m glad that this woman is good at being annoying. By the time Kyle’s illness is cured, he will probably never want to see her again.

After Nicole sent her three kids to the kindergarten early the next morning, she rushed to get some desserts and brought them to the Hillside Villa.

When she brought Maya to get some desserts yesterday, she remembered that she had previously run into Evan, who was buying desserts for Kyle. That meant Kyle liked the desserts too.

Therefore, she purposely went to get some desserts and brought them over today.

Looking at the pastries she brought, Kyle knitted his brows. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

This woman held back while practicing with me yesterday, and today, she brought pastries over. She must be up to something.

“This is for you, Kyle.”

Nicole happily handed a piece of cake to Kyle.

Kyle looked at her warily and uttered a “No” before he turned his head away.

Nicole’s hand stopped in the air for a brief moment, and she retracted it embarrassingly.

Evan looked on while thinking to himself, Serves you right, Nicole. You’re simply biting off more than you can chew. Hmph! To think you’re trying to get Kyle to like you using some cakes.

“Dr. Tussaud, just do your job as a doctor! You don’t need to worry about the other stuff concerning my son.”

Nicole turned around and looked at the gloating Evan as her blood boiled.

This man really wants Kyle to hate me, doesn’t he?

Damn it!

She feigned a bitter smile. “You’re right, Mr. Seet. I’ll focus on treating Kyle.”

“That’s good then.”

Smirking slightly, Evan shot Nicole a meaningful glance before he walked out with his coat.

“Let’s start.”

Kyle’s voice pulled her back to reality. She sighed and followed him into his bedroom.

He silently endured the pain during the whole treatment like he did yesterday.

After the acupuncture session, Kyle wanted Nicole to hack with him again.

Nicole hesitated. It was because Juan was at the kindergarten today, so he couldn’t help her.

“What now? You’re scared?”

“Yes, Kyle, your skills are too good. You beat me.”

Yet Kyle wasn’t happy, albeit being praised. Instead, he glanced at her with a displeased look. “You’re faking it!”

Well, yes… but, I’m more like an impostor since I know nothing about hacking.

Either way, she did not mind what Kyle said to her.

“Kyle, since I’ve already bought the cakes, why don’t you have a bite?”

Kyle, however, only glanced at her and did not answer.

Nicole suddenly remembered Maya, her little glutton. If I were to eat in front of Kyle, would it make him crave for it too?

With this in mind, Nicole immediately put it into action.

Unboxing one of the cheesecake, she took one slice, sat down, and ate it with relish.

But it backfired – Kyle just went upstairs after shooting her a glance.

Nevertheless, Nicole did not give up and followed him up the stairs. Since it was something Kyle liked to eat, she hoped that he could have a little, even if it was just one bite.

However, Kyle chided at her as soon as she walked upstairs, “Stay away from me.”

“I know you like this cake, Kyle. Why don’t you-”

Before she could finish her sentence, she saw Kyle calling Evan and telling him, “She’s got ulterior motives. Don’t have her over anymore.”

“Kyle, you-”

“My dad will agree to it!”

Kyle gave her a look of determination and walked straight downstairs.

Nicole was at a loss. A second later, her phone rang.

“Dr. Tussaud, it seems that Kyle really dislikes you.”
