Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 454

Even so, he had to be careful. He didn’t know how Nicole would think; she was Zane’s daughter, after all.

“Alright. I’ll be waiting.”

Russell appeared satisfied with Evan’s decision.

As the two men left of the president’s office, Lisa immediately walked toward them and pretended to show the elderly man some concern over his health.

“Are you okay, Dad? We heard you yelling in there. You scared us!” Adam carefully observed his father with a filial look on his face.

Then, Lisa shot Nicole a glare before asking, “That woman didn’t bother you too much, did she, Dad? When will you get her to leave?”

Russell paused before letting out a sigh.

“It’s all been a misunderstanding. Someone else killed Julia. It has nothing to do with Nicole.”

Everyone was visibly shocked.

Nothing to do with her? A misunderstanding?

Could there really be this huge of a misunderstanding?

Is this a joke?

Sofie and Lisa glanced at each other, looking completely dumbfounded.

Adam and Jonathan were clearly astonished too.

This is what Dad says the moment he comes out of the room?

That’s way too sudden. Something must be up.

Evan understood his grandfather’s intentions.

To put it simply, Russell was no longer against Nicole being with Evan. However, Evan would have to avenge Julia’s death in a way that satisfied Russell.

Sophia held onto Nicole’s hand, assuring her that it was now all in the past.

After finding out what had happened inside the office, she had told Nicole that there was likely still hope. Now, there really is hope.

To think that Lisa had put on such a huge fuss but ended up twisting things in Nicole’s favor! What a blessing in disguise.

“What should we do now, Aunt Lisa?” asked a bewildered-looking Sofie.

“What should we do? What else can we do? We’ll just have to take things one step at a time now!”

Sofie was speechless.
