Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 1491

Chapter 1491 Playing Cute

 

Another saccharine quote read: I want it! Or else I’m not gonna talk to you anymore!

 

 

Yet another saccharine quote read: Aw, rabbits are so cute! I don’t wanna eat them!

 

And so it went.

 

As Maya read those quotes, she felt goosebumps rising all over her body. Will it not be mortifying if I were to play cute with Wilber by speaking in such tones?

 

 

 

“Maya, your tea has gone cold. Why don’t I get another cup for you?”

 

 

Jolting back to reality, Maya nodded. Soon, the waiter came over with a cup of hot tea and placed it in front of her.

 

After taking a sip, she flashed Wilbur a smile. “Earlier, you said that my mother would be fine. You already said such a platitude the last time, so I don’t want to hear it anymore. I just want to see my mother as soon as possible!”

 

 

 

“Trust me. Your mother will be safe and sound. You’ll see her when the time comes.”

 

Damn it! It seems that he’ll only try to console me with such remarks if I don’t act cute with him!

 

 

 

Pinching herself, Maya went through the saccharine quotes in her mind before she looked at Wilbur with a cute expression.

 

“I don’t wanna hear all that. I just want to see my mommy right away! Or else… Or else I’m not gonna talk to you anymore!”

 

Hearing that, Wilbur spurted out the mouthful of tea he was drinking.

 

Just now, she was still all decorous and spoke to me with all the courtesy in the world. What’s with this sudden change?

 

“Aw, calm down. I’m just asking you to help locate my mommy. There’s no need to be so worked up that you choked.” Maya’s voice was adorable.

 

After recollecting himself, Wilbur solemnly said to her, “Your father doesn’t need me to help with that. You should trust that he’ll find your mother and that he’s capable of protecting her.”

Wilbur said nothing as he wavered.

 

I’m confident that I can locate Mrs. Seet, but will that disrupt Mr. Seet’s plan?

 

Thus, he decided to ask about it before agreeing to help. Making up an excuse of going to the washroom, he gave Evan a call.

 

“Mr. Seet, Maya really wants to see her mother. Can you please allow her to do so?”

 

“You know where her mother is?”

 

“While I don’t know the answer to that, Mr. Seet, I’m certain you do. I’m afraid that I’d disrupt your plan if I were to act arbitrarily, so…”

 

“So you only need to reassure her. You don’t need to poke your nose into our affairs.”

 

He naturally understood Evan’s meaning—not to help Maya track her mother down.

 

But how am I going to deal with her acting coquettish and playing cute with me?

 

As he exited the washroom, he brooded over that issue. The instant Maya saw that he had returned, she immediately unleashed the ultimate tactic she came up with just a moment ago.
