Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 543

“Don’t worry. I can assure you, the dukedom is going to be Levant’s. You’ll be the next Lady Musgrave. No one is going to take that away from you.”

Daphne hesitated. She glanced around anxiously before whispering, “Aunt Portia, I heard Uncle Stephen has a daughter. Will she—”

“That’s just a rumor.”

“What if that daughter does exist? What if she returns? She’s Uncle Stephen’s daughter. Will Levant and I end up with nothing?”

“Don’t worry. If that daughter exists, Levant will get rid of her. After all, all he wants is to be the next duke, right? He won’t give the title up easily.”

Aunt Portia’s right, thought Daphne. Levant won’t give up on the dukedom.

“I hope I’ve worried for nothing.”

Portia took Daphne’s hand and comforted her. “Daphne, I’ve always treated you as my daughter. I didn’t give birth to Levant, so I need to be cautious around him. The only way to be Lady Musgrave is to make him fall for you, do you understand?”

“Aunt Portia, I understand. Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of you.”

“Alright then. I trust you.”

“ shall leave now. I’m going to prepare some snacks for Levant.”

“Be observant. If you think Ms. Lane is an eyesore, just send her away.”

“Got it,” Daphne answered with a smile as a ferocious glint appeared in her gaze.

Everyone who will threaten my future must die. I’ll clear all obstacles blocking my path.

At night, the Musgrave Estate was brightly lit.

Nicole left her room to go for a stroll in the garden. She couldn’t wait to bump into Daphne.

I can ask her where she learnt her acupuncture skills.

That might be a clue.

She was enjoying her stroll when footsteps suddenly sounded behind her.

Before she could find out who it was, a blow landed on her and she blacked out instantly.

The person picked her up and left swiftly.
