Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 2047

Chapter 2047 Insistence

Evan narrowed his eyes in suspicion. “What is so important that you have to make the call for him?” he asked calmly several moments later.

Patrick laughed sycophantically. “He says he has something huge to ask of you. Hold on, he wants to do the talking.” Pushing the phone against Davin’s chest, the older man snarled, “Here, Davin. Speak to your brother. Don’t be afraid to be specific.”

Davin took the phone forlornly. “Hello, Evan? I’m sorry to be calling you like this given how busy you must be right now, having to adjust to the jet lag and all. I hope the foreign clients aren’t being a handful! Anyway, my father-in-law has something urgent he wants me to ask you. Do you have a few minutes to spare?”

Jet lag? Foreign clients? Evan put the cryptic message together quickly.

Looks like Sheila’s old man must have forced them to make this phone call. Davin isn’t the one who needs my help. Patrick is! That was pretty smart of Davin to convey the situation subtly.

“What is it?” Evan asked in mock concern. “My father-in-law needs a loan of two billion. Would it be convenient for the company to lend him this amount right now?”

Evan smirked as he listened to the masterful way his brother was delivering his lines with just the right amount of hesitance. “Though two billion isn’t much for us to spare and we would approve the loan under normal circumstances, there’s been a hiccup in the finance department. We would need a couple of days for that amount to be liquidated.”

“Is that so?” came Davin’s voice. “All right then. In a couple of days, we’ll-”

“Evan,” interrupted Patrick in a commanding tone. “I’m afraid I can’t wait that long. How about you make a call to have it delivered to me?”

Davin turned to regard his father-in-law with disgust. Who the hell do you think you are to have your creditor deliver your loan to you?
