Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo Chapter 1041

Evan didn’t reply.

Evan’s sharp eyes caught Nicole digging her fingernails into her flesh. He also saw her eyes glowing
with endless anticipation and excitement, which got him to think that he should find a way to let Nicole
see the kids.




“I got it. You and Kyle should go to bed soon as well.”

“Okay, daddy. We will.”

After hanging up, Evan got up to walk up the stairs. He was walking past Nicole when she suddenly
asked, “Evan, do you really have amnesia? How do you still remember the kids?”



A chill ran down Evan’s spine. Should I confess now and tell her that I never had amnesia? No! I still
need an excuse to prevent Nicole from checking my pulse. She will stay by my side as long as she
doesn’t check my pulse and figures out that I was never poisoned.



“My parents told me that they are my kids, and there is no way my parents would lie to me,” informed
Evan before he continued walking up the stairs.

Nicole didn’t comment on that.





Oh, no wonder. thought Nicole. She watched his back as he walked up the stairs, and a hint of sorrow
flashed past her eyes.

Evan didn’t want Nicole secretly checking his pulse at night and realizing that he wasn’t sick. Hence, he
didn’t share a room with her. Instead, he got Nicole to sleep in the room beside his.



Nicole tossed and turned at night. She couldn’t sleep and kept wondering, Is Evan asleep? Should I
sneak in and check his pulse?

Evan was having an equally hard time falling asleep. Does Nicole need anyone to take care of her at
night? Her body is weak. Should I go check on her?

The two lovebirds deliberated for a while before they got out of their bed at almost the same time. They
both wanted to go check on the other.

When they got out of their rooms, they saw each other sneaking out. Their eyes met, and that got them
frozen on the spot.

Nicole’s heart thumped fast when she saw Evan there. Who would’ve thought that Evan is still awake
at this hour? Good thing I hesitated and came out late. It would’ve been so awkward if he caught me
sneaking into his room.

Evan stared at Nicole. He was observant and noticed that she was cautious and tiptoeing earlier. She
seems agile, so her body should be fine. Why was she sneaking around, though? What was she going
to do?

“You haven’t gone to bed?” asked Evan after they stared into each other’s eyes for a while.

Nicole deliberated before lying, “I can’t sleep, s-so I came out to go for a walk.”



Evan could tell that she was lying. He didn’t know what she was planning, but he didn’t push it
either. Well, I can’t sleep either, so I’ll just go for a walk with her, and we can chat.

“I can’t sleep either. The moon’s beautiful tonight and it’s a great time for a walk. Let’s go together.”

Nicole didn’t reply.

She simply nodded and followed him down the stairs.

When they reached the ground floor, Nicole noticed that the sky was pitch black. She could forget
about seeing the moon because even the stars were nowhere to be seen. At that moment, Nicole was
truly tempted to diss, “Mr. Seet, where’s the beautiful moon you promised?” Naturally, Nicole didn’t
actually say anything aloud.

Evan looked at the pitch black sky and suddenly felt awkward. He forced himself to say, “The breeze is
nice tonight.”

Nicole put on a fake smile on.

The weather is freezing tonight, and the breeze only made things worse. Yet, he’s calling it nice?

Nicole instinctively rubbed her hands and breathed out on them upon thinking that. A second later, a
pair of warm hands draped a coat over her shoulders.

Nicole was stunned. Didn’t Evan lose his memory? Is he instinctively being so sweet to me?

It had been a while since Nicole was spoiled like that, and a warm sensation engulfed her heart.

“Evan, what were you poisoned with?”

“I forgot. I have amnesia, remember?” replied Evan before he brushed past it. Both his amnesia and
the poison were faked, so he didn’t want to dwell on that topic.



Nicole didn’t say anything.

Evan broke the silence when he saw how quiet Nicole was being.

“You claim to be my wife. Can you tell me what happened between us? Maybe that’ll trigger my
memory.”

“Sure. We met at The Passion bar. No, wait, that is not accurate. We first met at the Rose Garden. I
was just a kid at the time…”



The two of them reminisced in their past as they strolled around, and happiness glowed in Evan’s eyes.
It had been two years, and he had fantasized countless times about how he would walk with Nicole and
talk about their past together. My dream finally came true.



“… You had been nice to me ever since I was a kid. After that, I had to return to the Lane family, and
you had to go back to the Seet family. We lost touch because of that. The next time we met was at the
Passion bar. I was drunk at the time, and I mistook you as a male escort…”

Nicole turned to Evan when she mentioned male escort. She was going to skip that part, but Evan
spoke up suddenly and asked, “Hold on, you mistook me as a male escort?”

Nicole nodded. That was what happened. After that night of passion, they were blessed with four
adorable yet naughty kids.

Evan recalled that beautiful night when he smelled Nicole’s perfume. His dark eyes burned with hints of
lust before he paused and demanded, “How could I possibly have been mistaken as a male escort?
You should know that lying comes with a price!”



After saying his piece, Evan dragged Nicole into his arms and kissed her lips eagerly.

Evan sighed internally. My gosh, Evan Seet. You’ve lived to see the day you lie just to get a kiss.
Forgive me, Nicole. I really can’t find another excuse. This is the only way I can hold you in my arms.

Nicole’s eyes bulged. T-this kiss is way too spontaneous!

Nicole’s mind ran wild, but she suddenly realized that something was off. Evan was supposed to be
poisoned and on the verge of dying. How is he still strong enough to drag me into his arms?

Nicole reached out to try to check his pulse. Evan noticed that soon enough, and he pushed her away
gently.

“Go back to bed, and never lie to me again,” warned Evan before he turned around and left.

Nicole was speechless. I wasn’t lying, okay? I was being honest! I did mistake you as a male escort.

Nicole frowned as she watched Evan walking away. She didn’t think that Evan would still be that
domineering towards women, even after he was poisoned and had amnesia.

Wicca… He wasn’t poisoned because he messed with another girl’s heart, was he? Did a woman get
upset and use the poison to seek revenge?

Those thoughts got Nicole suddenly curious about how Evan was poisoned. I need to get to the bottom
of this when I have the chance.

Nicole felt strange when she returned to her room and laid on the bed. Over the past two years, she
had been wary of overeating because she would inevitably vomit everything out afterward. To her
surprise, she didn’t have any bad reaction, even though Evan made her finish an entire bowl of
porridge and three prawns.



That got Nicole secretly delighted. If this persists and I stop vomiting, I may be able to fatten myself up
quickly and see my kids soon. When Evan spoke to Juan earlier, Juan said that Maya had lost weight
and is thin now. I wonder what she looks like. They’re approaching their teens now, so they must have
grown up a lot…

The next day.

Evan had the maid prepare a scrumptious breakfast for Nicole early in the morning. Nicole was
cooperative and wanted to eat more, but she only managed to down a few bites before she suddenly
rushed to the washroom.

Evan knew that Nicole’s stomach was acting up, so he immediately called the doctor and have him
examine her. The doctor diagnosed Nicole with poor physical health and said that her digestive system
was weakened, so she couldn’t eat well. He later prescribed some medicine to her and told her to rest
well.

Nicole sighed when she saw the bags of medicine lying by her bedside. To think that she was
celebrating last night and thought that she would see her kids soon. Looks like that dream will take
some time before it comes true.

Nicole was feeling sad when she suddenly heard her children shouting.

“Daddy, we’re here to visit you.”

“Daddy, I learned several recipes for different delicacies. I’ll cook for you.”

It’s Juan and Maya! Nicole was excited and thought, My kids are here. I want to see them so badly.

However, Nicole later checked herself out. Do I really want to see the kids in this state? I am like a
skeletal monster now.



Evan could see Nicole struggling, so he spoke in a harsh tone, “I will not let you see my children until I
am certain that you are my wife.”

After saying his piece, Evan walked out of the room and closed the door behind him.

Nicole stopped struggling, but she was obviously disappointed as well. Still, she thought that it was
good for her to not see them just yet. She could wait until she recovers, and her kids will see a healthy
and pretty mommy. She wanted to present herself that way to her kids.
