Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo Chapter 1578

Cut Your Tongue Off

Seeing that Davin had yet to return even though night had fallen, both Kyle and Juan felt unsettled.

“Do you think Steven has seized Uncle Davin? He’s not back by now. Surely, Steven wouldn’t have been so hospitable and asked him to stay for a drink, would he?”

Juan stood by the living room’s entrance in Imperial Garden and stared into the night sky with worry.

Kyle walked over to join him. “I have a feeling that Uncle Davin will be able to escape.”

“What if he can’t? If Steven doesn’t believe him, he won’t let him off! He’s Daddy’s only brother. If anything untoward happens to him, Daddy will surely be devastated. Furthermore, he’s our only uncle…”

Uncle Davin, please be safe! God, please. I, Juan, am willing to endure any suffering in the future as long as you protect Uncle Davin and let him return safely!

“After midnight, I will bring some men to the hideout and check out the situation. At the same time, I can also find out what has happened to Sally,” Kyle said.

Juan mulled over it for a bit before saying, “I’ll go with you.”

“No need. Stay with Daddy. If any mishap happens, please take care of him!”

In the end, Juan acquiesced. “All right then. Be careful.”

“I will.”

While they were thinking about how to rescue Davin, Riley was planning on ways to torture him.

Since Steven wants to make his move tonight, it doesn’t leave me much time to torture Davin. How do I get back at him in the shortest amount of time and the most violent manner possible?

After contemplating for a while, he kicked the door open.

Hearing the noise, Davin and his men looked up. When they saw Riley, they instantly had a sense of foreboding.

Nevertheless, he did not give up. “Desmond has already told us everything. It was you who worked with him back then. I’m just curious about one thing—what kind of grudge do you have with Steven that you had to make his life a living hell?”

Riley was a cautious person. Even in the face of Davin’s prompting, he still denied any of the wrongdoings he had done toward Steven. Instead, he insisted that Davin wanted to make him the scapegoat.

“Mr. Maupay has been very kind to me. Everything that you have said is just a false accusation! As a punishment for your wickedness, I have decided to cut your tongue off so that you’ll never be able to spout nonsense ever again!” he growled.

Cut my tongue off? Davin’s heart sank.

“Are you saying this because you feel guilty? Are you afraid that I will accuse you of having ill intentions before Steven again?”

Sneering, Riley responded, “Cutting off your tongue is a punishment on you for speaking nonsense! You are creating trouble by starting a rumor, and this is the price you have to pay for slandering others!”

“Riley, you truly are not as simple as you appear to be. No wonder you are able to stay by Steven’s side for so many years without arousing his suspicion. Your conduct is impeccable!”

Davin kept his eyes on him all the while. All of a sudden, he found the man terrifyingly shrewd.
