Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 189

Maya circled the main house but Kyle and Juan were nowhere to be seen. She then headed towards the pavilion.

“Uncle Evan.”

To prevent him from knowing that she was his daughter and be separated from her mother, Maya greeted him after some thinking.

Her voice had pulled him back to reality. Looking over his shoulders, he asked, “Yes?”

“Where are Kyle and Juan?”

“They’re both at the Hillside Villa. Do you want to play with them?”

Maya nodded fervently.

Interestingly, Evan did not find this chubby little girl annoying. He curled his lips and smiled. “Should I bring you to the villa to find them?”

She nodded first before shaking her head when a thought dawned on her.

“You don’t want to go?”

“I want to be with Mommy.” She then turned her gaze to the roses. “Uncle Evan, can these flowers be made into a wreath?”

Arranging flowers into a wreath.

The gleam in Evan’s eyes shimmered. It had been a while since he last made one.

Evan was lost in a daze for a split second as he looked at Maya’s blinking eyes. The hoyden must have been as cute as Maya when she was young.

She was twelve when I met her…

The thoughts flashed before his eyes once again. Evan then reached out to hold Maya’s hand. “I’ll make a wreath for you to wear on your head, okay?”

“Is it pretty?” Her clear eyes blinked in anticipation.

“Yes. It’s very pretty,” Evan answered in all seriousness.

“Okay!”

Maya nodded gleefully. She picked her favorite flowers from the rose arbor while holding Evan’s hand. He then started weaving the wreath patiently.

She watched in adoration the making of a pretty wreath. Her eyes gleamed as the wreath was miraculously made from scratch.

“Wow. Uncle Evan, you’re amazing! This is so pretty! Thank you.”

The smile on his face was from the bottom of his heart. He then carefully placed the wreath on Maya’s head.
