Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 373

“I don’t think Mr. Seet and I are compatible.”

Sophia was dumbfounded, and she scolded, “Since both of you are incompatible, you should stay away from him! Don’t be a hypocrite and make use of him.”

I’m making use of him?

“I did not take advantage of him, I…” Nicole tried to clarify.

However, Sophia interrupted her and continued, “Ms. Lane, don’t you agree that those scandals benefitted Lane Corporation and you?”

Nicole paused momentarily before responding, “That’s true.”

“Though you did not wish to marry Evan, you managed to spread rumors that helped Lane Corporation and you. Aren’t you just making use of him? You should know that such rumors do not do Evan any good. It is not honorable for him to be involved with a woman that had a scandal with Rocky,” Sophia vented.

Nicole understood what Sophia was trying to imply.

To others, Evan seemed like he had downgraded his expectations since he was getting together with a woman rejected by Rocky.

This did not reflect well on the Seet family.

It then occurred to Nicole that while Sophia could accept her past, Jonathan would not.

As a father, it was perfectly normal for him to be concerned with the type of woman his son marries.

Sophia was not wrong either. Though Nicole did not think she was compatible with Evan, she still heavily relied on him, and it did make her actions seem questionable.

Nicole clenched her fists tightly and finally replied, “I understand where you are coming from. Be rest assured that I will stay away from him from now onwards.”

Listening to her reply, Sophia thought that it was a shame.

However, Jonathan was glad to hear it and even added, “As for those rumors, I hope you will step up to clarify them. This concerns the entire Seet family. Therefore, please sort out the scandal and reveal who your two daughters’ biological father is.”

Nicole could only nod in agreement. “Yes, I will.”

Satisfied, Jonathan continued, “Alright then. Ms. Lane, would you like to stay for dinner?”

“It’s fine. I will make a move first then.” Nicole rejected the offer.

Jonathan nodded in response.

Nicole then looked at Sophia and smiled before she turned to leave.

At that instant, her heart felt empty.

Like what she said earlier, even if she were willing to marry Evan, while Mrs. Seet would be fine with it, judging from Jonathan’s expression, he would not.
