Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 1004

Just don’t be nonsensical in future.

Levant let out a sigh and mustered the courage to walk in.

“Alright, just acknowledge your mistakes and move on. There’s no need to resort to self-harm.”

Exasperated by his statement, Avril gave him a death stare and scolded, “You’re the one who’s in the wrong! I’m not, I’m right as hell!”

Levant had nothing to retaliate. She’s too stubborn. ”Fine, let’s go home.”

“So fast? It’s already so late. Why don’t we stay for dinner?”

Without uttering a word, Levant gave Avril a meaningful look before turning around to leave.

Sensing something amiss, she obediently followed behind him.

As they were about to leave, Stephen was nowhere to be found. Unable to resist the urge, Avril remarked, “He must have expected us to stay for dinner, that’s why he’s cowering in his room.”

“When we return to Levant Winery, you can have anything you fancy. Is that not enough?”

“How can the food at Levant Winery compare to a meal that he’s paying for?” Avril casually commented.

Just as they were approaching the parking area, Levant abruptly stopped in his tracks and turned around to look at Avril. With a solemn expression, he said, “Let me remind you again. If you think it’s all fine and dandy to play around with him like that, you better think again. When you really become besotted with him to the point you’re unable to detach yourself from him, you’ll be in tremendous pain and you will regret it! On the other hand, if you’re harboring any other ulterior motives, you can forget about them too. Dad and he are able to resolve their own problems. You’re in no place to interfere. With the free time you have on hand, why don’t you go find yourself a boyfriend?”

His criticisms caught Avril by surprise and a trace of nervousness flickered briefly in her eyes.

Originally, her objective was to avenge her mom. She schemed to cling to Stephen, harassing him for days on end. Her ultimate goal would be fulfilled if Stephen and Portia divorced. That way, Portia would get a taste of what it was like to be deserted.

Not only that, but she also hoped to gain something from Stephen.

However, during the period of time they spent together, she realized that Stephen was a rather decent guy. He even appeared in her dreams from time to time.

Could it be that I’ve really fallen for him? No, no, no, it can’t be. It was all an act. All for the sake of spiting Portia. I have self-control, I can keep my feelings in check. I can.

Noting her unresponsiveness, Stephen scoffed, “Don’t tell me you’ve really fallen for him. I don’t want to be your son. I’m your brother!”
