Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 1659

Chapter 1659 The Negotiation Begins

“Mr. Maupay, what brings you here today?” Davin looked at the father and son duo and asked out of spite.

Steven exhaled deeply before explaining, “I’m here to apologize to Mr. Seet for the misunderstanding. Lucas was sowing discord while impersonating Riley, and I fell for it. Mr. Seet, you’re a magnanimous man, so is it safe to presume that you would forgive me?”

Having said that, he shifted his gaze toward Evan and waited for a reply.

Evan was stunned for a bit before picking up his teacup for a sip.

At the same time, Davin snorted. “Mr. Maupay, mind you, you almost ruined the Seet family and blew up Imperial Garden. That’s some serious business. Do you honestly expect us to forgive you because of some simple verbal apology? It’s not as easy as you think.”

Steven’s face darkened.

I knew they’d never let this slide easily. There’s always a catch. Who knows what sort of absurd demand it’s going to be? Anyhow, I’m not going to accept it that easily.

Then, he turned toward Skyler, who understood his intention and said, “My father did, in fact, misunderstand Mr. Seet, but Imperial Garden is still perfectly fine! Nothing’s blown up, and no one in the Seet family got hurt. In actuality, there was no harm done, so an apology should be more than enough!”

Davin retorted, “Well, there was no harm done because my brother, the great Evan Seet, is a genius! If it weren’t for him sending Faye to hold your father hostage and thus take control of the situation, who knows what would’ve happened to Imperial Garden? This is how good my brother is at devising strategies. If he isn’t astute, we would’ve perished. Therefore, not only should you apologize to us, but you should also thank Evan. Because of him, you avoided making the biggest mistake of your lives.”

“Uncle Davin’s right! Besides an apology, you should be thanking my dad! On top of that, this is no small matter, so words just won’t cut it. You should show us your utmost sincerity!”

“What sincerity?” Steven responded.

With that, Davin and Juan exchanged gazes. “Let’s settle with one condition each for the apology and the thanks. As for what the conditions are, it’s up to Evan.”
