Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 477

Howie pondered a moment and replied, “I did everything I could to investigate the accident, and I just want to do my part to inform Mr. Russell about the truth.”

Evan did not believe a single word he said.

“Really? You said you’re Zane’s close friend, and that’s why you helped his daughter. Yet, Zane was the culprit of the accident. In fact, you’ve betrayed Zane when you told my Grandpa about this. This doesn’t make sense at all! You must have an ulterior motive.”

Howie remained as calm as ever and defended himself with another explanation.

“I’ll be able to obtain insider information from Sylphiette if she manages to marry you. That was the agreement.”

“As for the letter, I just wanted to take that opportunity to strengthen my connection with the Seet Group. Who knows if we might become business partners in the future?”

Evan kept mum. He still did not believe Howie’s explanation about the letter.

If he were keen to approach the Seet Group, he could have done it openly instead of keeping his identity a secret.

Either he’s not telling the truth, or he’s not the mastermind. Someone might have used this man to lure me to K Nation.

Based on the way how Howie carried himself, Evan was convinced that someone must have used him as a scapegoat. There must be a more powerful mastermind behind all these.

Upon returning to the hotel, Evan received a call from Davin.

“Howie is not the culprit. Someone is trying to mislead you, but we still don’t know their motive. You should come back soon.”

Evan’s eyes darkened.

He wants me to go back?

After spending just a day in K Nation?

Of all days, Davin called today.

As if this call was also in the mastermind’s grander scheme of things.

“Got it. Take care of my kids and Nicole.”

“I will. Come back soon, and we’ll think of our next course of action.”

“All right.”

After ending the call, Evan immediately turned to John. “Prepare a private plane for me. Time to go back.”

“All right, Mr. Seet.”

“Take Zane with you on a commercial flight.”

“It’s too dangerous for you to travel alone, Mr. Seet. I’ll get a few guards to travel with you.”
