Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 451

The door to the president’s office shut tight.

Only two people remained inside the room. Nicole gazed at Russell with mixed feelings.

He used to be pretty nice to me. Things probably wouldn’t have changed if it weren’t for that accident.

“Have a seat, Ms. Lane.”

Nicole fell silent.

Why is he being so courteous?

She hesitated. It was only after the elderly man took a seat that she sat across him in trepidation.

Seeing how calm Russell looked, Nicole really didn’t know what to expect.

Is this what they refer to as the calm before the storm?

“You’ve given the Seet family four children, Ms. Lane. This is a fact that I’ve never denied. But your mother killed my wife, and I was hoping you could face this issue head-on. Do you admit to what I’m saying?”

Nicole froze. It wasn’t Mom who killed Ms. Julia. It was Zane.

Still, Zane was her father, so to Russell, Nicole was involved no matter what. There’s no point trying to explain things. The outcome remains the same.

After pondering for a moment, she looked up at Russell and nodded.

“If you have something on your mind, just say it.”

“I can never forget that your mother was involved in my wife’s death, so I can’t see you show up in front of the Seet family. I’m against you being with Evan, and so are his father and uncles. So, please leave Evan. Don’t worry; I won’t chase you away just like this. I’m still grateful that you bore the Seet family four children, so do tell me what you want as compensation.”

“I willingly gave birth to the children, Mr. Seet. I don’t need any compensation. Besides, I’m the children’s mother; I don’t think it’s appropriate for you to talk about compensating me.”

“The children you gave birth to carry the Seet family blood, Ms. Lane, but you’re not fit to marry into the family. Do you understand what I’m saying? Tell me what you want in return for cutting all ties with Evan and the children. From now on, I don’t wish for anyone from the Seet family to be associated with you.”

Nicole gazed at Russell. Truthfully, she understood why he despised her.

He had lost the person he loved most, after all. It would be extremely difficult for him to let this go.

Still, blood was thicker than water. As a mother, there was no way the woman could cut ties with her own children.
