Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 169

“Dad, let me get this straight – I have nothing to do with the bankruptcy of Lane Corporation. I know you wish to revive the Lane family, but there is nothing I can do. Besides, I severed my ties with the Lane family when I was forced to leave. Just finish your dinner and leave. Also, don’t ever look for me again.”

On the other hand, Zane was rather displeased and replied, “Nicole, how can you be so rude? How can you ignore the survival of the Lane family after you become rich? You can’t do that!”

“Why can’t I do that? Did the Lane family treat me like a human being? To be exact, I’m even worse than a maid!”

Nicole was furious whenever she recalled the past in which she was bullied. Indeed, it was like a permanent mark in her mind that she could never forget.

“Nicole, this is not the time to settle old scores. Since Mr. Seet said you have a solution, I’m sure you have it! Please, I’m begging you to help me!”

When Zane was begging her, he looked at her pitifully as if he had been driven into a corner.

Nicole grabbed the goblet and glanced at the room upstairs.

That jerk deliberately wants to cause me trouble! Since she got increasingly exasperated, she stood up and went upstairs right away.

The next moment, she pushed the door of the study forcefully and glared at Evan.

“What are you trying to do?”

“It’s simple. Give me custody of Juan, and I will pay you a large amount of money in return, which is enough to rebuild Lane Corporation.”

“Dream on!”

She felt that it was the funniest joke ever. Even if she agreed to it, she would not spend a penny on Lane Corporation.

“Evan Seet, you’re out of your mind. Do you think you can threaten me with Lane Corporation? You know what? I don’t care about it!”

“I’ll wait and see!” Nonetheless, Evan didn’t argue with her but only replied with a few words.

Then, he pointed at the door and said, “Get out and close the door. I don’t want to be affected by any noise.”

Nicole was irritated by what he said.

He brought Zane here to cause me trouble, yet hopes to stay out of it? Dream on!

She sneered and swaggered out of the study. Moreover, she deliberately pushed the door open and glared at him before going downstairs furiously.
