Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo
Chapter 247

“Nicole’s busy,” Evan answered. “Tell the kitchen staff to prepare lunch for the kids.”

“Alright.”

The moment Sylphiette turned away, the smile on her face melted into an ugly scowl.

How dare she use the kids to get closer to Evan!

Looks like it’s time to unleash my plans…

She took out her phone and dialed a number.

“Did you replace that person?”

“Don’t worry, I won’t disappoint you.”

“Very good. Stand by for further instructions.”

“Understood.”

She smirked after hanging up the phone.

I hope you’ll like my little ‘gift’, Nicole!

The first thing Nicole saw when she returned to Rose Garden was the kids playing in the yard.

Noticing her presence, Maya toddled over to her happily.

“Mommy! Mommy!” Maya cooed as she rushed forward on her short, pudgy legs.

Nicole bent down and pulled her into a hug while stroking Maya’s fat belly with a smile. “What did you eat for lunch?”

“We had a feast! There was steak and cold-cut platters and…” Maya paused, pointing at Evan’s room. “Daddy told the witch to cook for us!” she whispered.

“Hm? Where’s Uncle Davin?” Nicole asked.

Maya shook her head. “Daddy went to pick us up from school!”

Nicole was surprised. Wasn’t Davin supposed to be the one picking up the kids? Why did Evan take his place?

Suddenly, Evan walked out from his room and glared at her.

Nicole stood up immediately and greeted him politely. “Good afternoon, Mr. Seet.”

Evan studied her from head to toe before asking, “Are you so busy that you don’t even have time for the kids?”

It was the first day of operations for the clinic, and Nicole was indeed swamped with work.

She froze for a second. “I’ll try my best to make time for the kids. I underestimated the number of patients today.”

Evan raised an eyebrow in surprise. So she was busy with matters at the clinic? How did it open so fast?

At least she’s not getting herself involved in shady business…

His expression softened. “Remember, the kids come first. Find someone to look after them if you’re too busy.”

Nicole nodded. “Understood, Mr. Seet. Thank you for taking care of Maya and Nina.”

“…”

Evan fell silent, not knowing how to continue the conversation. Her politeness made him uncomfortable.

Why did her attitude change so much overnight?

Something smells fishy…

He decided to take the initiative to replace out what tricks she had up her sleeve and the reason for her sudden change in attitude.

I’ll uncover the truth about you sooner or later, Nicole Lane!

Nicole decided to close the clinic at 4 P.M. in order to translate documents for Evan.

She drove to the kids’ kindergarten and fetched the kids home.

After dropping them off in the rear house, she provided them with toys to play with and reminded them once again to abstain from fighting.

“Don’t worry, Mommy! I won’t bite Nina anymore.”

“I promise I won’t scratch Maya’s face anymore!”

“Good girls!” Nicole praised. “Juan, watch them for me. Confiscate their things if they start a fight.”

Nina pulled her makeup kit close to her while Maya threw herself onto the table to hide her snacks from Juan.

“Okay, Mommy!” the kids chirped.

Nicole ran over to Evan’s study room after that.

Evan had planned to berate her for being late, but he turned out to be the tardy one in the end.

Nicole stood up the moment he entered the room and greeted him politely. “Good afternoon, Mr. Seet.”
