Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo Chapter 696

“Portia, I don’t care what grudge do you hold against Nicole. She is my daughter. I will not tolerate you
if you mean her harm.”

Nicole glanced witlessly at Portia, whose eyes were bloodshot, before looking at Stephen. She now
learned that the two of them did not get along with each other.

All of a sudden, she was very afraid. She worried that one day, Levant and she would be in such a
situation.

“Stephen Musgrave, I will not leave this place.”

Back at the Ankins, Portia received certain harrowing news.

Daphne Ankins was now a lunatic. According to the Ankins family, it had something to do with Nicole
and Stephen.

To protect Nicole, Stephen was cold-hearted enough to destroy Daphne’s sanity. Now, Portia decided
that she was going to avenge her niece by making Stephen and Nicole suffer.

Pft, you want me to leave so that you two can have your sweet father-daughter time?

You wish!

Stephen Musgrave and Nicole Lane, you will pay for your sins!

Portia shot daggers at Stephen before leaving.

Stephen could tell from Portia’s attitude that she must have found out that he was behind Daphne’s
loss of wit.



Truth be told, Daphne was the one to be blamed for her own misfortune. Not only did she keep
harassing Nicole, but she also even ordered Andy to assassinate Nicole. Stephen was forced to step in
to protect his daughter.

Stephen knew Portia well. It was clearly written on her face in the meeting just now that the Musgrave
Estate was about to enter into a state of chaos.

Now that Nicole had lost her memory, Stephen figured it wasn’t enough to just warn her about Portia.
He needed to take more precautions to keep her out of harm’s way. An idea suddenly came to his
mind. Perhaps, I should hire bodyguards for her!

Right off the bat, the perfect candidates came to his mind.

“Nicole, I will hire a few personal bodyguards for you. They will keep you safe wherever you go.”

“Bodyguards?”

Nicole paused to ponder her father’s idea. Hmm, a personal bodyguard sounds good to me. At least
the next time I bump into a crazy man like Evan I can just ask my bodyguards to beat him up!

“Sure!”

Having gotten his daughter’s approval, Stephen ordered the butler to make arrangements for Nicole’s
bodyguards.

“Now, let us continue our topic. Which field are you interested in?”

Nicole mulled for a moment before responding, “I know nothing as of this moment. Would it be better if
I learn more about it first?”



A smile was etched onto Stephen’s face. “It’s alright if you know nothing now. You can always consult
your bodyguard.”

Huh? Does my personal bodyguard know the ropes to businesses?

Nicole was perplexed. She wondered what kind of person did Stephen hire to keep her safe.

Wow, now I’m excited! Is my bodyguard a know-it-all who can both protect me and teach me how to run
a business?

In her excitement, Nicole’s uncertainty was gone. “Alright, I think I have my eyes on the semiconductor
manufacturing company for now. I want the world to be equipped with better technology. It will improve
the living standards of people.”

“Great!”

The father and daughter duo left the study and went their own ways. Half a beat later, Evan showed up
in front of Nicole. Next to him was John who had a flippant smile on his face.

John greeted Nicole warmly, “Hello Mrs. Seet! Great to see you!”

“Mrs. Seet?”

Nicole knitted her brows. Did he just call me Mrs. Seet? I don’t have any relations to this man
whatsoever!

Nicole hugged her arms and stared at Evan and John questioningly. She asked, “Why are you two
always together? You guys came here together?”

Evan was at a loss for words.



He was impressed by Nicole’s acute observation.

John grinned and replied choppily, “Yeah, we came here together.”

Nicole shot the two of them a dirty look and marched on.

The two of them obediently followed behind her.

Nicole slowed down her steps and furrowed her brows. She turned around and barked, “Why are you
two following me? I have no time to entertain you!”

“Sir Musgrave has arranged for us to be your personal bodyguards.”

Evan sounded clear and formal. His eyes were brimming with nonchalance.

“W-What did you say?”

Nicole was utterly dumbfounded.

She expected his father to arrange some stellar character to be her bodyguard, not this duo of losers.

How can my own dad hire such halfwits to look after me?

“I don’t need you two to protect me. Alright, you guys are dismissed.”

Seeing that Nicole was repulsed, John didn’t address her by Mrs. Seet anymore.

Out of the blue, there was a cunning gleam in John’s eyes. He replied in a sorry tone, “Ms. Nicole, Sir
Musgrave was the one who gave your orders to ensure your safety. He’s even told us that you have
agreed with the arrangements. Isn’t it a bit too late now to refuse our services?”
