Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 788

Davin couldn’t believe his ears. Immediately, he turned around and looked at Nicole. “Nicole, you know that he’s lying, right? The roses—”

“The bouquets of roses that you’ve delivered to Sheila are gorgeous! It suits her perfectly!”

 
 

What’s wrong with this lovey-dovey duo? I can’t believe that they’re playing along with one another! It seems like I can’t rely on them to prove my innocence! I’ll have to confront the children once they’re back!

He was caught up in his thoughts, but Sophia’s warning snapped him out of a state of reverie. “Davin, it doesn’t matter who’s the one behind the bouquets or roses! What matters the most is the wedding ceremony! We need to revert back to the Muir family!”

“Mom! How can you proceed to hold a wedding ceremony when I have no intention to get married? Aren’t you afraid that I will run away?”

 

Sophia sized her son up and warned him, “I’ll announce that you’re no longer a member of the Seet family and my son if you’d dare to run away! I’m pretty sure that none of your so-called friends will help you if you’re a nobody!”

 

Laughing, Davin replied nonchalantly, “Mom, do you think I’m afraid of what’s in store for me?”

His mother was taken aback by his response because he seemed to have meant his words.

 

“Since you’re not afraid, shall we give it a try?”

Davin tapped on his chest and held his head high, replying with a determined look, “Sure! How shall we go about this?”

 

“I’ll ban you from accessing the family’s wealth from now onwards. How many days do you think you can survive without the family’s aid?”

I don’t need the family’s aid at all! I have always been envious of the entrepreneurs who have built their own empires from scratch!

“Deal! If I am able to sustain my lifestyle and build an empire of my own, paving out a path of success, are you going to stay out of my marriage in the future?”

Staring at her son wide-eyed, Sophia behaved as though she had stumbled upon the eighth wonder of the world. She had thought that he would never achieve the things that he had mentioned.

 

Some time ago, Davin was tasked to be in charge of the company, as Evan was caught up in an aviation accident. In the end, he turned the company upside down. Therefore, it was evident that he didn’t possess the capability of leading a company.

He’d dare to make such arrogant remarks? Paving a path of success? His own empire? He’s imagining things again, isn’t he?

A few seconds later, she showed them a photo of a beggar who was begging on the streets. “Look! I’ve found another photo of the starving Davin!”

He was at a loss for words, but his mother showed no signs of stopping at all.

She continued searching for different photos and showed them to Davin. “This is you! After three months of living alone without the family’s aid, you’ll end up being a sloppy man on the brink of death!”

Davin was dumbstruck.

What the hell? Mom, can you have a little faith in me? The photos that you have shown me are getting progressively worse by the second!

“What do you think? Do you still want to give it a try?” Sophia caught a glimpse of her son’s dejected look. She decided to ride the wave as she pursued it further.

Nevertheless, Davin replied with a determined look and announced, “Yes! I’ll move out tonight! I’ll see you in three months!”
