Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 448

“You bought this just for her?”

He emphasized on the word ‘just’.

Sofie turned pale. She initially only wanted to irk Nicole and start a fight with her, but she didn’t think Evan would interfere so quickly.

But that’s fine too.

If they gang up on me, I’ll tell Mr. Russell that Nicole instigated everything.

I’ll put all the blame on her. Mr. Russell will surely blow his top.

Sofie immediately put on a sad face. “I didn’t know Ms. Lane wouldn’t like these things, Evan. I’ll go get something else.”

“Hold it.”

Evan called out to her. “If I remember correctly, Sofie, you love eating fish and chewing on bones. So why don’t you finish everything here?”

Sofie fell silent.

Me? She shuddered as panic surfaced in her eyes.

H-How could I eat this?

The broth wasn’t even pure bone broth. It was old, but the urine of a child mixed with it was certainly warm and fresh.

She had rewarded a child for urinating into the bone broth.

Moreover, not only had the fish not been gutted, but all the ingredients used were stale. One would surely have an upset stomach if they were to consume all this food.

No. I can’t eat any of this!

She hastily refused. “I’ve said this earlier, Evan, but I can’t eat after my breakfast time has passed.”

Evan couldn’t be bothered with her nonsense. With one phone call from him, John came in with two bodyguards.

“What can I do for you, Mr. Seet?”

“Serve Ms. Sweeting her breakfast.”

John was puzzled. He looked at the food on the table before glancing at Sofie.

Sofie looked frantic by now.

“No, Evan. I won’t eat it. I really can’t. I’m not hungry.”

“But you specially bought it. Wouldn’t it be a waste if you don’t eat it?”

Evan gave John a glance.

Evan remained silent. Silence implied consent. Understanding his boss’ intentions, John turned to the bodyguards once again.

But just as the men were about to feed her the fish, Sofie got up with a stagger and dashed out of the president’s office as though her life was at stake.

“Should we go after her, Mr. Seet?”

Evan glanced at Nicole.

“Forget it. She won’t do it again now that she’s learned her lesson.”

Besides, it wasn’t like he could really force her to swallow the fish.

Evan smirked casually. Nicole isn’t stone-hearted enough. Showing enemies mercy is no different than treating oneself cruelly. Looks like she still has some lessons to learn.

Sofie ran into the elevator, fearing that Evan had sent his men to chase after her. Then, she hurriedly called Lisa again.

“Save me, Aunt Lisa!” she wailed into the phone.

Lisa, who had been awaiting Sofie’s good news, tensed up in the blink of an eye. What’s going on? Why is she asking to be saved?

“What’s wrong, Sofie?”

“I’m running for my life, Aunt Lisa! I’m still at Seet Group now. I don’t know if I can make it out of here. Help me!”
