Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 278

Rocky isn’t a simple guy.”

Nicole frowned. For a long while, she thought about what Evan said before she nodded in agreement.

Given the house he loaned her, it was obvious that Rocky’s identity wasn’t as simple as she used to think.

However, she wasn’t all that curious about him. She only saw him as a friend, and everyone had a past. She was okay with her friends having some privacy.

Evan turned around to examine her when he realized that she wasn’t asking any questions about it. Does that mean she already know about his identity?

“So do you like him or his…” Power?

Evan didn’t utter that last word because he thought that Nicole would understand his question.

Nicole, however, remained quiet. She didn’t like Rocky or any of his things, so there was no point in discussing it.

Why is Evan so curious about me and Rocky?

Nicole crossed her fingers and asked, “Do you like Sylphiette, Mr. Seet? What do you like about her?”

Evan was taken aback.

He didn’t expect those questions from Nicole.

His expression turned grim, but he didn’t answer her question. He didn’t demand an answer from her about Rocky either. He simply picked up the wineglass and downed the wine.

Nicole saw him drinking like that and assumed that he was admitting to being in love with Sylphiette by drinking.

That makes sense. He is the renowned Mr. Seet, and no one can force him to do anything he didn’t want to. As for why he likes Sylphiette… Well, that is his business, so why did I even bother to ask about that? Man, I am such a busybody.

Nicole was having an internal monologue when Evan turned around. His sharp gaze was stuck on her, and his voice was distant when he ordered, “Pour the wine.”

Nicole came around and stepped forward. She had just picked up the bottle when she suddenly felt Evan’s arm naughtily circled around her waist.

Her heart thumped faster, and she said, “Mr. Seet, please move your arm away.”

“Ah, sorry. I am a little drunk,” claimed Evan, who pinched Nicole’s waist despite his words. Nicole instantly blushed hard.

She turned around and glared at him while her face was utterly reddened. She was about to lose her temper when he suddenly pulled her in.

That surprising move ambushed Nicole and made her fall. She hadn’t had a chance to place the bottle down before it zipped in the air and Smash! fell onto the floor.

Nicole’s heart instantly froze over.
