Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 44

Davin was a little stunned, but he could sense that something was amiss.

“Uncle Davin? Uncle Davin, tell me quickly!” pleaded Juan.

“Alright, I’ll tell you.”

“What did you say?” The question came out like a yelp. When Juan heard that his Mommy was near the pond, in the middle of the rockery, he felt anxious.

How hateful of Daddy. He actually carried Mommy onto the rockery!

 

“Ha, she’ll definitely be unable to get off. The trick that your dad has pulled off is amazing!” exclaimed Davin.

 

Juan was contemplating his next course of action, when he heard Blake calling the household to dinner.

Davin’s eyes lit up. He had nearly forgotten that his brother had ordered the kitchens to prepare ‘delicacies’, so that he could have a feast.

 

“Come along, let’s eat.” Davin took Juan by his little hand and walked towards the dining room.

“It’s time for dinner,” announced Evan, who was seated at the head of the table.

 

Davin sat next to him, and looked forward to the meal. “Evan, what delicacies have you prepared for me?”

“Seafood!” came his reply.

“Seafood? Hairy crabs? Shark’s fin, sea cucumber, abalone…” He was so excited just thinking about it. He whispered to Juan who was seated beside him, “You get to enjoy this because of me!”

Juan turned to look at his Daddy. It seemed like he had an odd expression, where the smile did not quite reach his eyes.

“Mr. Davin, please enjoy your meal.”

“What is this?” enquired Davin, looking at the food that was set in front of him.

“It’s seafood. Kelp, and it’s fresh too!” replied the servant.

“This, is this seafood?” Davin looked at Evan incredulously.

Evan nodded, and replied, “Eat up, there’s more if that isn’t enough.”

A silence took place.

After lunch, Davin looked disgruntled. He felt that Evan’s behavior was excessive. No, this simply would not do. He would have to go home to complain.

 

“Uncle Davin, I think that Daddy has gone a little overboard.”

“A little overboard?” snorted Davin coldly. “He went completely overboard!”

Juan blinked his clear eyes, “Why don’t you retaliate? Have a bit of revenge?”

If Davin were willing to help, he could save his Mommy!

“Revenge? How?” enquired Davin, looking taken aback.
