Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 999

He spoke warmly to her, “Are you awake?”

Nicole sat up lazily and looked around the room. “How did I get home?”

Her question sparked hope within him. Could she have remembered something?

He suppressed his doubts and replied, “You were already home when I came back. What’s wrong?”

Nicole frowned and seemed to be deep in thought. “I remember. I remember going out with Sheila…”

She started to recollect her memories but before long, she hit a wall. Her mind was blank.

Evan handed a cup of warm water to Nicole. “You must be mistaken. It was probably just a dream.”

A dream?

Nicole took the cup from him. Her eyes scanned the room. When she saw the clothes on the clothes rack, her skepticism grew.

I clearly remember going out. I even ransacked the closet in search of one specific piece of clothing. If it were a dream, why would the clothes be there?

“Drink some water, Nicole. Are you hungry?”

Nicole eyed the water. She gulped down several mouthfuls and paused for a while before handing the cup back to Evan.

Evan’s expression was dour and he stood still instead of receiving the cup.

Nicole knitted her brow and softly called out to him, “Evan.”

Her voice pulled a reaction from him. He took the cup from her and placed it on the table.

Nicole could not shake the feeling that Evan was hiding something from her. I can tell from his eyes that there’s something he isn’t telling me.

“A penny for your thoughts? Did something happen?”
