Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 707

She swallowed her words back and looked at him firmly. “You’re very thoughtful. Please make sure nobody hurts me then.”

“Yes!” Evan stared at her in all seriousness.

Their eyes connected and Nicole found herself lost in his gaze. Her heartbeat sped up as blood gradually rushed towards her face.

Knowing that she was blushing, she quickly lowered her head and scolded herself silently. You have a fiancé, Nicole—one that you have pursued yourself. How could you fall for another man! Though you can’t deny that he’s really eye-catching, it’s wrong to feel like this! How did you end up in this mess? Don’t be this shameless, dear self!

Seeing that the both of them suddenly became quiet, John secretly pulled a face as he followed Mr. Seet and Mrs. Seet around the garden like a puppy.

He then let out a cough. “Mr. Seet, I have to use the washroom. Please take good care of Ms. Nicole.”

“Sure.” Evan stared at him in satisfaction, grateful that he decided to leave at this time.

Just like that, they were all alone.

Nicole faltered in her steps. “I don’t feel like strolling anymore. Let’s head back.”

“Why so sudden?” the man asked as he studied her uneasy state.

“B-Because I’m tired,” she stuttered.

“Then let’s take a seat. The moon is pretty tonight and the air is fresh.”

It was not easy for him to have some alone time with his wife, so he definitely would not let this chance slip past his fingers.

Nicole hesitatingly lifted her head to stare at the argent-silver moon hanging in the sky. Its halo rested above the clouds as lasers of moonlight—as bright as diamonds, sprinkled down, illuminating parts of the world.

“You’re right. The moon is so pretty. I love looking at it,” she exclaimed longingly.

Evan gazed at her in silence as his eyes turned a bit misty. “You’re prettier to look at,” he commented in his husky voice. His deep and sexy tone made her lost for words.

While she was still staring at the bright moon, her colored lips curved up into a small smile.

When the wind blew, she suddenly sneezed and when she opened her eyes, Evan was already beside her, staring at her affectionately.

Her heart skipped a beat as she pinched herself harshly.

Once again, she reminded herself that it was inappropriate to have feelings for another man when she already had a fiancé.

Damn it! Where is your pride, Nicole?

She mentally slapped herself before glancing at Evan and hurriedly rushed inside.

“Note to self—stay away from that poisonous man in the future!”

A smile crept onto Evan’s face as he watched the woman mumbling to herself while fleeing inside.
