Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 617

Daphne practically spent two days sulking on her bed. Her emotions were laced with both anger and lingering feelings towards Hector.

She knew that he had other motives. But deep down, she still wanted to be with him despite everything. I’m seriously going crazy, she thought.

She tried to rationalize that she was feeling this way out of spite. It’s because I hate him! And because I want vengeance, I will make him fall in love with me intentionally and make him go through the same torture and betrayal I’ve felt.

But honestly, she knew her logic did not make sense. If she really hated him, she would have let things be a long time ago. All this rationalization was nothing but self-deceit.

The only truth that remained was that she still loved him.

She loved him so much that she had no qualms in taking drastic actions to eliminate her biggest rival, Nicole.

She called out loud, “Can somebody come?”

A servant appeared. “Yes, Ms. Ankins?”

“Get Andy here.”

After a while, the man arrived. He was her trusted aide whom she entrusted him with the following orders – keep an eye out for Nicole at the hospital and find an opportune timing to take her life. If he could make Hector lose his memories, that would be even better.

This way, Hector would belong to no one else but her.

“I can pay you as much as you demand, so long as you execute your mission properly,” said Daphne.

“Don’t worry, Ms. Ankins. I will do my best.”

Andy left Daphne’s room beaming, relishing in the idea that he would soon be a wealthy man. The joy was so overwhelming that he had a definite spring in his step.

That was when he bumped into Jeremy.

Jeremy did his research prior to arriving at the estate. He paid particular attention to Daphne’s room because Evan’s hit list included Daphne and Portia. That was why he was in the area.

Noticing Andy’s peculiar attitude, the astute Jeremy knew that something was up.

He wasted no time in digging out the man’s background information. Then, he proceeded to get the alcoholic drunk. With that, Jeremy managed to get to Andy to spill the beans in the end almost effortlessly.

Daphne’s plan dismayed him. What a terrible woman. I really should teach her a lesson.
