Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 1868

Chapter 1868 Put On An Act

Elias turned to look at him and said, “If you don’t believe me, you may use her blood to open the stone door now. But, let me warn you first. If she dies because of that, it has nothing to do with me!”

Elias did not seem too keen to talk about that topic, so he changed the subject and mentioned Shermaine.

“Evan, I hope you can release Shermaine as soon as possible. It didn’t matter what she had done in the past. She did those things because she loves you! I hope you can forgive her, seeing how much she is willing to risk her own life because of her love for you.”

With that, Elias left.

Evan watched him walk away and felt that his questions were unanswered. Levant felt likewise.

“Evan, should we ask Shermaine? She might know something about it.”

Evan asked him cautiously, “Do you really think Joy will be in danger if the treasure is opened?”

Levant thought about it and replied, “If there is poisonous mist around the treasure, I’m sure we will all perish, let alone Joy! Actually, what he said makes sense too. You were never interested in the treasure. Why don’t we just drop the whole thing and forget about it?”

“The reason why you aren’t interested in the treasure is that it isn’t time to open it yet. Evan, once the time is right, I’m sure you will let Joy open it!” said Frida as she walked toward the two men.

Evan’s face darkened. “Then, I hope that day will never come.”

“It will! I’m sure it will come! I can guarantee that with my life.”

The two men were dumbfounded.

They had no idea why Frida was so confident about it, but Evan said no more. Levant studied her and asked, “Are you here because of Shermaine?”

“I’m here because of Joy!”

“What do you mean?”

“Evan, in order to ensure that Joy has a safe and happy life before she turns eighteen, I’m willing to play along with you and put on an act!”

“What act?”

Frida told them about the plan.

After Evan discussed it with Levant, he found the plan viable. However, they could not understand why she decided to help them.
