Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 575

“Come on, you’re a big-faced!” Nina begged to differ.

Maya glared at her resentfully when Nina teased her. It seemed like Nina was no longer afraid of her Maya Punch.

Stephen looked at the playful kids and chuckled.

He found these kids amusing and likable the very moment he saw them. It was probably because he met them at his favorite place—or perhaps it was because the girls bore a resemblance to Rosalie.

But regardless of what the reason was, Stephen felt the kids were inexplicably endearing to him.

“I heard you guys talking about an old witch. Who’s she?” he asked.

“Mr. Levant’s mother!” Maya shouted without any reservation as she rolled her eyes hard.

She was a forthwith girl and she was never good at concealing her feelings.

Huh? Portia?

What did she do to the kids? Why did they hate her so much?

“What did she do to y’all?” he asked again.

“She asked the servants to catch us and throw us out of the estate!” Maya replied without holding back.

“Yeah. She’s so fierce! I can’t believe she’s Mr. Levant’s mother! She’s an old witch,” Nina agreed.

Their comments were harsh, yet Stephen felt the duchess should have known better to know what she should and should not do.

“Y’all don’t have to worry. She won’t do it again,” he replied with a serious face.

“You know her?” Juan asked.

“You can come to this place and look for me if she does that again,” Stephen replied.

Among the kids, Kyle had been silent throughout. He scanned the room and realized although the room was minimally furnished, it was luxurious and meticulous nonetheless. Even the bonsai were well-trimmed.

He finally opened his mouth and said something. “Does anyone ever come in here? What about the duchess?”

“This is my private space. No one dares to enter this room,” Stephen replied.

The girls blinked at him in admiration when they heard his answer.

They guessed this old grandpa was probably someone powerful. That was why everyone was afraid of him.

As for Juan and Kyle, they started surmising who this old man was.

But because the kids were afraid of him, they stayed hiding in the room for the next hour without asking who he was. It was not until they felt the coast was clear that they thanked him politely and bid him farewell before going out to look for Mommy.
