Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 503

“It was him! The ghost! It was the ghost!”

“Stop with your nonsense. Who was it?”

“It was him! It was Evan! Evan!”

The name that fell from her lips was a bombshell.

“Have you truly gone mad? There’s no way that it was him!” Adam bellowed.

Lisa clutched his shirt and locked her gaze with his. “It was Evan. It really was! I saw him with my own eyes!” she said, punctuating each word with raw austerity.

Adam studied the distraught Lisa. He let out a heavy sigh.

“It’s over. Not only are you disfigured, but it looks like your brain was scrambled too. Now that you’re ugly and insane, there’s no way you’ll be allowed to become the lady of the house.”

Lisa gripped his hand tightly. “I’m not insane. I’m telling the truth. Honestly!”

“What truth? Evan is dead. Are you saying that he rose from the dead? Don’t be ridiculous.”

Adam’s tone was derisive as he gave her the side-eye.

However, Lisa was adamant that it was either Evan being alive again or his ghost acting up.

Her certainty eventually planted the seed of doubt in Adam.

Could it really have been Evan?

No, that’s utterly impossible!

Maybe it was someone Lisa offended. They could have disguised themselves as Evan when they attacked her.

There’s no way Evan was the one who injured her.

“Enough. You must still be reeling from shock. Rest well.”

“Adam, about my face… Is it possible for me to recover my original looks?”

In your dreams.

That was a brutal cut right across her face, leaving a bloody trail in its wake. Just the thought of it gives me goosebumps.

If one could recover from such a scar, there would be no such thing as disfigurement.

I’ll have to ask him for myself when I see him. I might be able to squeeze some answers out of him.

Imperial Garden.

Three of the children carried their loot of toys and clothes into the living room.

They placed the gifts on the table, amassing a sizable pile that took up all the available space.

“Mommy, Grandma gave these to us. There are also sausages and lobsters in the box. She said they’re all premium and wanted you to have a taste.”

“Mommy, look at all the pretty clothes Grandma bought for us. They’re all so well made.”

“Mommy, the toys Grandma bought for us are wonderful. She even tried to give us a gold card, which we didn’t take.”

Seeing her children happy brought Nicole immense joy.

I’m glad Sophia is a reasonable person. She could have wished harm to these children because of what happened to Evan. Thankfully, she didn’t go down that path.

“When I’m free, I’ll go visit her with you.”

Juan nodded happily.
