Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 9

However, Nicole didn’t seem to hear what her children said. Her eyes were fixated on the screen while listening attentively to Evan as he described Kyle’s condition.

He has been severely ill since he was a baby and is in urgent need of treatment… This sentence seemed to have formed into a chant that played in her mind on repeat.

I’m so sorry, Kyle…

It’s all Mommy’s fault. Mommy didn’t fulfill the responsibility of being a mother. Mommy is so, so sorry!

Looking at her mother with a perplexed expression, Nina couldn’t seem to understand her mother’s reaction.

Her mother had always nailed everything from fighting thieves and gangsters to working miracles and doing house chores. She raised the three of them on her own and never once shed a tear, even when encountering the biggest of problems!

Nina then turned to look at Juan, her brother, with the same expression.

At the same time, Juan suddenly recalled the incident where he was mistaken for someone else. Those bodyguards must have mistaken me for this boy, Kyle.

Unless…

Kyle is my brother?

Then, could Evan Seet, who looks so similar to Kyle and me…

Be our daddy?

The gears in his little brain churned as Juan’s jaw hung open slightly, and his eyes lit up.

On the other hand, Maya hopped down from the small chair she was sitting on and padded towards Nicole. She stretched out a chubby hand and said, “Don’t cry, Mommy. Here’s a piece of candy for you!”

Nicole returned to her senses and hastily wiped her tears away. Warmth spread through her chest as she leaned down to scoop Maya into her arms.

At the same time, Juan was whispering a huge secret he had just unraveled to Nina.

Nina was equally shocked when she heard it.

“Really?”

Her abruptly raised voice got the attention of both Nicole and Maya.

“What’s going on with you two?”

“It’s nothing, Mommy. We were just talking about Kyle’s illness. It’s so sad to hear what he had to go through, so we think that you should use your skills and treat him, Mommy!”

Juan practically read Nicole’s mind.

But…

Evan hates my guts, so he definitely won’t let me go anywhere near Kyle!

Getting past the Seets to treat Kyle is easier said than done.

Though still young, Nina could clearly detect her mother’s anxiousness. She then ran to her bedroom and took out her most precious box.

“Mommy, I don’t mind letting you use my magic tools.”
