Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 1856

Chapter 1856 A Drink

Shermaine nodded and finished the glass in a few gulps. Putting the empty glass to the side, she said, “Let’s fill our stomachs first. Once we’re done, we can come back to rest early. We still have to continue our journey tomorrow.”

With that said, she rose to her feet to head out. Yet, to her surprise, her legs went weak, causing her to stumble and fall to the floor.

What’s going on? Why can’t I summon any strength?

“We won’t be eating anything, and you won’t be leaving this room.” Hearing that, Shermaine lifted her head to look at Evan before her eyes drifted to the glass.

“The water…”

“I spiked it,” Evan admitted.

That caused her to frown and stare at him in shock. “Why did you do that?”

“Shermaine, I won’t beat around the bush with you. I just want to ask what you’ve done to me. Why do I have issues with my memory?”

“You… You—”

No. No way. There’s no way Evan would find out about this. The book said he wouldn’t remember the truth.

“Evan, what are you talking about? I don’t get it,” Shermaine said, playing dumb.

Evan looked down at her and uttered, “I’m not a fool. Although my memory tells me that you’re my wife, my feelings, my friends, and my son convinced me that there’s something wrong with my memory. You’re not my wife.”

“If your memory tells you it’s me, then it’s me! Your feelings aren’t right, and your friends are lying to you.”

“I don’t want to waste any time with you. You’re now poisoned, and if you don’t take the antidote, you’re going to die. We can make a deal. Restore my memory, and I’ll give you the antidote. From then on, we’ll no longer be associated with each other. Sounds good?”

Shermaine was quiet for a while but eventually shook her head.

“I’d rather die than to have you think that I’m not your wife. I want you to remember me as your wife forever!”

Evan frowned, for he never thought she would refuse to correct his memory. “Are you really not afraid of dying?”

“I’ll tell you the truth. Your memory will only be reverted to normal after I die! So, you don’t need to make a deal with me. Just kill me,” Shermaine enunciated with a solemn expression.
