Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo Chapter 1619

A Guest Of Mine

“Yeah, I’m Avril! I was helping to plant the flowers at the back. You know, I did everything by myself that my hands were covered in mud! But I think it’s worth it! Just look at the blooming flowers! It feels great to stand there and smell the scent of these colorful flowers.”

She returned to Stephen’s side and smiled as she asked, “Why don’t you go ahead and see for yourself once you’re free? I’m sure you’re going to like it as well! In the future, let’s put furniture in the garden, and we’ll have our afternoon tea there. We can watch the flowers and then the sunset. It’ll surely be one of the most enjoyable things to do in life.”

Nicole and Evan exchanged glances in silence as they were confused by the duo’s relationship. They wondered if Stephen had accepted Avril’s feelings.

Staring at Avril in the eyes, he started naming a variety of luxurious brands, asking her to choose whatever she wanted so that he could return the favor for her service.

Yet, Avril rejected him outright with a heartbroken expression on her face. “What do you mean by this? I haven’t spent the entire day sorting things out in the garden for something as superficial as those! All I want is to spend some quality time with you in the garden! I just wish to make your day! How could you bring up the suggestion to compensate me for my service? What am I? A maid or something?”

“No! I’m not treating you as a maid!” Stephen explained.

“Really? If that’s not the case, then what is it?”

“I think of you as a valuable guest of mine! It feels bad to have a guest sorting things out on my behalf.”

“A guest?”
