Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 1478

Chapter 1478 Stupid Child

 

Maya started sharing Nicole’s life story with Wilbur. Once in a while, he would ask a couple of questions. Gradually, the couple was chatting away.

 

 

Meanwhile, Zayden and Joy were sitting on the merry-go-round. Looking at Sally, who was waiting for them, they started muttering.

 

Zayden asked Joy, “Did you follow her out to have fun?”

 

Joy nodded.

 

 

 

Zayden sighed. “I thought you had other plans in mind. How are we going to look for your mommy if we are having fun instead? Aren’t we wasting time?”

 

 

How is this a waste of time?

 

Joy rolled her big, round eyes. Of course, I have other plans other than having fun. I certainly have the potential of being a fantastic actress because I can put on an act. Zayden, on the other hand, will surely let the cat out of the bag, so I cannot tell him anything.

 

 

 

“Well, just have fun. Shall we play water guns later?”

 

Zayden thought about it and nodded his head.

 

 

 

“You are your mommy’s daughter. Once we are done, you should go back quickly to find out about your mommy’s whereabouts.”

 

“Don’t worry. I know.”

 

The two children started to play with their water guns.

 

They shot water at one another. It was great fun for them.

 

Once in a while, Joy would sneak a glance at Sally. When the latter was not looking, she threw her smartwatch into the reservoir.

 

Next, she pretended to borrow Zayden’s smartwatch to check the time. While she was handing it back to Zayden, the smartwatch slipped out of her hand and fell into the reservoir as well.

 

 

Seeing that Zayden was not entirely convinced, Joy added, “When Uncle Davin finds out that your smartwatch has fallen into the reservoir, he will definitely think that you are stupid.”

 

“Aren’t you the one who dropped it?” retorted Zayden with a sulky face.

 

Joy spoke in a matter-of-factly tone. “No, you didn’t get a firm grip on it, and that’s why it slipped. It’s your fault!”

 

Zayden pursed his lips. I didn’t have a firm grip on it? I didn’t even touch it! Joy sure knows how to find excuses!

 

After being with Joy for so long, Zayden realized one thing. His daddy would always listen to anything Joy said. No matter how much he tried to explain himself, his daddy would never listen to him.

 

Whatever Joy said would be accepted without any question. On the contrary, he would appear unreasonable.

 

At the thought of that, Zayden had no choice but to accept his fate. With a sigh, he said, “Well, whatever. Worse comes to worst? I will just be called stupid again by Daddy.”

 

“Zayden, there’s a way to prevent that from happening.”

 

“What is it?”

 

“Call your daddy using Sally’s phone. Tell him that I’m the one who dropped your smartwatch into the water. I will compensate you with an identical one when we get back later.”
