Chapter 1289: Chapter 1290

Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo Chapter 1290

Nicole reported solemnly, “They were well-behaved. Although Joy was cheeky, she was sensible. The other elder ones carried out their responsibilities very well. However, Nina just experienced a break-up. She hasn’t been in a good mood. I’ve applied for a few days’ leave for her to rest at home before resuming work at the company.”

Evan’s expression darkened when he heard about Nina’s situation. “There must be something fishy about Chris and Nina’s breakup. I will get someone to find out all about it.”

“I have the same thought as you. So, I even called Dad to ask him to help investigate. Evan, it looks like both of us think alike.”

“Yeah, that’s true! Let’s not discuss Nina’s problem now. You haven’t answered the question I asked earlier.”

“What question?” Nicole asked with a serious expression. “I’ve already told you that the family members were all well-behaved.”

“You’ve mentioned the children, but what about you, Mrs. Seet? Were you well-behaved?”

Nicole was speechless by his question. “What are you trying to imply, Evan? Besides going to the company, all I did was accompany Joy. How would I have time to do any naughty stuff?”

A faint smile formed on Evan’s well-defined face as he asked, feeling intrigued, “If you have the time, what naughty things do you plan to do, Mrs. Seet?”

Nicole was at a loss for words.

D*mn! He’s being mischievous.

She took a glance at Evan then replied, “There’s nothing I want to do.”

“Oh? It looks like Mrs. Seet is very well-behaved!”

Nicole was rendered speechless. Can’t he be serious? How playful of him!

Then, she said, “I want to…”

Before she could think about what to say, Evan had already gone closer to her. “You want to? Let me satisfy you.”

Once again, Nicole was rendered speechless.

Well, it looks like it’s true that the older he gets, the more thick-skinned he is. I think there’s no more cure for him.

When Evan woke up the next day, he tiptoed as if he was trying to steal something. He was worried that Nicole would be woken up by the slightest sound he made.

After retrieving his jacket and walking out of the room, he saw Nina also coming out from her bedroom with her disheveled hair.

“Nina?” he said in a low voice.

“Daddy!” Nina stopped in her tracks.

Taking a closer look at Nina, he noticed that she looked chubbier. It had just been one week, and her face was round. Moreover, her hair was messy, while the oversized pajamas made her look sloppy.

This doesn’t look like Nina’s style. Whenever she appears in front of me, she will dress up nicely.

Evan furrowed his brows and asked tentatively, “Are you Nina or Maya?”

“I’m Nina.”

Evan was silent for a moment as he glued his eyes on her. He felt discomfort. It seems like the breakup with Chris is hurting Nina a great deal.

Feeling as if his heart was torn to pieces, he walked toward her and looked at her. “Nina, don’t overthink it. You’re the most amazing person. I trust that you will only get better and better in the future.”

Tears started to fill Nina’s eyes. Evan’s consolation made her feel like crying. She clenched her fist tightly to control her emotions.

“Go wash up. I’ll wait for you to have breakfast together.”

Upon hearing that, Nina responded with a nod and returned to her bedroom.

When Evan turned around to head downstairs, he saw Maya folding her arms looking at him. Her gaze made him feel uncomfortable.

“What happened, Maya?”

“Daddy, did you think that it was me when you saw Nina with messy hair? Ah, it seems like I have an untidy image in your eyes.”

Evan cleared his throat in awkwardness. “No, there was once or twice when you would not care about your image, but in most occasions, you were still very particular.”

Maya pouted her lips. “Daddy, how do you remember so clearly when it’s just a once or twice situation? I can’t even remember it myself.”

“Once or twice is normal. It’s also normal for me to remember. You don’t have to mind this.”

“Okay. My memory is bad. I won’t mind it then,” Maya said, then she smiled. Following that, she changed the topic immediately. “Daddy, Nina is really not behaving normally. No matter how Mommy tried to comfort her, nothing worked. Mommy plans to find a time to bring her to the hospital as she suspects that Nina has depression.”
