Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 323

“Have a seat, Rocky.”

Rocky nodded and took a seat beside Nicole.

Evan demanded, “What business do you have here?”

Rocky smiled, “Nothing much. I just came to visit Nicole and the kids.”

He then replied with a question of his own, “What about you, Mr. Seet? What brings you here?”

The two of them locked eyes and the room was filled with tension.

Evan declared, “We had something to discuss. If there’s nothing else, you may leave. The kids are out.”

…

Rocky frowned. This is my house! Who do you think you are, chasing me out?

Nicole glanced at Evan, speechless. We were already done and you were ready to leave! Stop being so shameless!

However, she did not dare to say anything for fear of offending Evan. Who knows what he’ll do next? I need to count on him to take over the Lane Corporation, so I can’t afford to make him angry!

Rocky was not a pushover. It made no sense for him to be chased out of his own turf either.

He turned to Evan with an endearing smile, “What a coincidence, Mr. Seet. I have something to discuss with Nicole as well.”

He did not move from his seat.

“Go ahead.”

Evan implied for him to say his piece and to get out!

“Mr. Seet, since you were here first, perhaps you should go first.”

Rocky could tell that Evan did not want him to be alone with Nicole, but he would not give up so easily.

What now, Evan? This is my house. You don’t have the right to chase anyone out!

After some time, Nicole got out of the bedroom and smiled, “I have something I need to buy outside immediately. Let’s continue this another day, alright?”

“What do you need? I’ll accompany you.”

Nicole glanced at Evan and knew that he would not let her off if she agreed.

She needed him to take over the Lane, so she decided not to anger him.

“No need, Rocky, I’ll go on my own. You guys should get back as well. I’ll change and leave soon.”

Evan was satisfied with Nicole’s reply and left after giving Rocky a cold glare.

Rocky turned around and Nicole gave her a smile and a “farewell.” He left reluctantly.

After the two of them left, Nicole closed the door and locked it. She slumped against the door and heaved a sigh of relief.

Why is Evan always at odds with Rocky? Do they have conflicts when doing business? Looks like I’d better avoid having both of them appear at the same place.
