Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo Chapter 1172

The man was rendered speechless.

I can’t believe Mr. Seet just left like that! And the reason is because he wants to care for his wife? I know
that he dotes on his wife a lot, but we have an important meeting tonight to discuss a big project. Oh, Mr.
Seet, couldn’t you have picked a better time for that?




“Now that Mr. Seet just dropped everything and left, what are we going to do now with our project?”

“Why don’t we call Mr. Lindt and ask him?”

“I guess that’s our only option.”



Feeling rather helpless, they rang John up. When John heard that Mr. Seet was preoccupied with his
wife, he had no choice but to ask Davin to stand in and take care of the work matter.



The moment Evan returned to the Imperial Garden, he questioned the maids about Nicole’s
whereabouts. Upon hearing that she was in the kitchen, he strode towards it.

At this time, Nicole was learning how to make the latest cake pop from Maya.



Evan walked in, and his deep-set eyes glimmered as he looked at Nicole with excitement.



“I thought you’re not coming home for dinner. So why are you back home?” Nicole asked with a hint of
surprise in her tone.



Evan had specially called her earlier to tell her that he won’t be coming home for dinner because he had
to attend a meeting. Why is he suddenly back home?

“I came home to take care of you.”

Evan’s gaze landed on Nicole’s stomach as he stared at it intently with a faint smile on his face. Nicole,
for her part, was baffled by the way he was behaving.

She looked down at her own belly, then she lifted her head and asked him, “What’s wrong?”

Evan reached out his hand and gently caressed her belly, he then asked with a soft voice, “When did you
get pregnant?” He looked like he was afraid that he would startle the baby with his voice.

Huh?

She was gob smacked by his question.

“What? I’m not pregnant.”



“You’re not? But I just ran into Levant at the hotel, and he told me that you’re pregnant. He also said
you’re the one who told him that.”

Evan was puzzled by Nicole’s answer. Why would she say that to Levant if she’s not pregnant?



Seeing the confused look on his face, she quickly explained, “Well, it was Sheila and Davin’s idea to
crush Levant’s hope of being with me. By lying to him, it’ll get him to give up on me and return to Tiffany’s
side.”

So, she’s not pregnant?

At that moment, Evan felt a little disappointed.

He thought that he was going to be a father again, as he had always hoped Nicole would be able to bear
him another child.

Out of the quadruplets, he had raised one of them on his own while Nicole had raised the other three by
herself. They had never co-parented before. As such, if she were to bear another child, it would be an
opportunity for him to make up for it.

Moreover, now that the children were all grown, he often reminisced those times when they were
younger. There was the quirky Juan, the cute Maya with her voracious appetite, and the feisty Nina.
Then there was Kyle, whom he raised on his own, with the same cold personality as himself.

There were times when he really wished he could turn back time and watch them grow again.

That being said, he knew that his wish was impossible and unlikely to happen. Hence, he thought the
best way to make up for the regret was to get Nicole pregnant again.

Nicole saw the faint disappointment on Evan’s face and she reached out her hand to touch his face. She
asked, “Do you really want to have another child?”

“Yes.” Evan nodded at her.

“Well, it’s all up to fate. It’s not something that we can have when we want it,” Nicole murmured.



“I know. Let’s work harder then. I believe our hard work will pay off eventually. We’ll definitely have a
baby soon.”

However, Maya, who was standing at the side, did not share their enthusiasm. She sighed softly as she
watched how determined her father was on having another child.

She thought back to something one of her classmates had said. Her classmate’s parents had just
welcomed a second child, and suddenly she had a little brother. Being used to be the only child, she
questioned her parents for having another baby.

Her classmate’s father snapped, “We are tired and bored of you. We have no other choice but to make
another one.”
