Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 1061

Meanwhile in the dining room, Nicole had a smile on her face as she enjoyed the food prepared by her daughters.

“Your cooking has improved a lot, Maya!”

“I’m just glad you like it, Mommy! I’ll adjust the recipes according to your physical condition, so just tell me what you like to eat!”

Nicole nodded happily, but she didn’t really have the appetite to eat much. “Mommy can’t finish it all, Maya. I’ll go check on your Daddy’s illness, okay?”

Maya was surprised. Illness? What illness does Daddy have?

“What happened to Daddy?”

Huh? Does Maya not know about Evan’s poisoning? Is he hiding it from her, or was the whole poisoning thing a lie to begin with?

“Well… I’ll find out after I check his pulse, Maya.”

She then ran upstairs with Maya, only to find Evan lying in bed while Nina kept crying beside him.

“What’s wrong, Nina?”

“Daddy coughed up blood, Mommy!”

“He what?”

Both Nicole and Maya panicked when they saw his pale face and the bloodstains on the corner of his mouth.

She quickly checked his pulse and frowned at how strange it was.

I’ve never seen anyone’s pulse alternate between being strong and weak like this… What kind of symptom is this?

Unable to determine his condition, Nicole decided to call her mentor Wesley for help.

“Don’t worry, Mommy’s fine. You be sure to take good care of your Daddy when we get to the hospital, okay?”

Nina nodded. “I will, Mommy.”

Maya’s eyes were filled with concern as she held Evan’s arm tightly and prayed. Please be alright, Daddy… Please be alright…

Evan was rushed to the emergency room upon arrival at the hospital while Nicole waited outside with Nina and Maya.

Maya looks really worried… Should I tell her the truth now? Nina thought to herself.

She then turned to look at Nicole who was pacing about absent-mindedly and decided to drop the idea. On second thought, that can wait… Daddy’s efforts would’ve been for nothing if Mommy hears us!

The doctor came out after a long wait and walked up to Nicole. “Mrs. Seet, your husband is in critical condition. We’ll need to get him hospitalized so we can monitor his vitals at all times.”

“Alright, sure. You’ve got to save him, doctor!” Nicole said.
