Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo Chapter 1254

Draven hid in a dark corner, waiting for his chance to carry out the plan. As soon as he saw a waiter
serving steak and wine to Levant, he went to the waiter and initiated small talk.

“Excuse me, may I know if the guest in room 3081 is there?”

“I think so.” The waiter turned around to look at the room, then replied.

While the waiter was looking away in the other direction, Draven swiftly slipped a few drops of sleeping
drug into the wine.

“Oh, I see. Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.” Holding the serving tray in his hand, the waiter walked away. Soon, he arrived at
Levant’s room and knocked on the door. “Sir, here’s the food you ordered.”

“Hand it to me,” answered Levant as he grabbed the tray from the waiter, then slammed the door shut.

Draven was secretly delighted. He believed Levant would faint soon after he consumed the wine. When
that happened, he could finally transport him back to Nepenthe Valley.

An hour later, Draven changed into a waiter’s uniform and knocked on Levant’s door again.

Yet, there was no response from the other side of the door. Draven used the door card he obtained
earlier to unlock the door and saw Levant collapsed in a chair.

Was the sleeping drug too strong or did he drink too much?

“Mr. Levant…” Draven gently shook Levant to wake him up. Upon confirming that Levant was fully
unconscious, Draven made a phone call.



Later that night, Levant regained his consciousness with a heavy feeling lingering in his head. He was
stunned to see a wooden roof above him the moment he opened his eyes. After a short while, he sat
up from the bed.

Beside the bed sat Evan, Davin, Draven, Nina, and Monica, who were all looking at him.

“You… Why am I here?”

Davin coughed lightly before beginning his scripted speech. “Levant, we’re awfully moved by your
actions. You were thinking about helping Nina while drunk, so you returned to Nepenthe Valley. I
always knew you were full of love! I knew you wouldn’t watch Nina suffer. You’re such a saint, Levant!”

At the end of the speech, Davin gave Levant two thumbs-up to praise him further.

However, Levant looked completely dumbfounded after hearing Davin’s words.

He sank into his thoughts for a moment and turned to Davin in bewilderment. “Did you just mention
that… I returned to Nepenthe Valley on my own will?”

“That’s right!” Davin gave him a thumbs-up as reassurance.

Levant tried to recall where he was last night. He merely remembered drinking alone and feeling dizzy
afterward. A few moments later, he started seeing double of his wineglass and gradually faded out of
consciousness.

He just couldn’t recall coming back to Nepenthe Valley by himself. Moreover, judging from his muscle
memory and his hostility toward Crystal Rose, he felt the absurdity of his actions as well.

As soon as Davin noticed the suspicion on Levant’s face, he exchanged a glance with Draven, to which
the latter immediately understood and explained, “Mr. Levant, I didn’t believe you would return to



Nepenthe Valley at first, too. I thought I was hallucinating until I walked toward you and discovered that
it was really you! You’re such a kind-hearted man!”

Levant was clouded with doubt. He stared at Draven and asked, “How did I return to this place?”

“You found a driver to send you to the valley’s entrance, then walked into Nepenthe Valley by yourself.
However, it appears you might’ve been too drunk to walk straight. Luckily, I met you halfway while I was
running errands for Mr. Evan with a few other bodyguards.”

Levant brows furrowed together. How did I call a cab while being heavily intoxicated? I even directed
the driver to send me to the valley’s entrance and walked into the valley all by myself…

“How did you know I called a cab?”

Draven was stunned for a second before he muttered, “You told me about it in a daze when the
bodyguards and I brought you back.”

Never mind the possibility and logical aspect of the matter, Levant believed he would never return to
this place of his own free will.

However, seeing how confident Davin and Draven were, he had no reason to suspect anything else.
After all, if he didn’t return by himself, why would he be here?

“Levant, I am eternally grateful for your help toward Nina. It means a lot to me, and I promise to repay
this debt I owe you in the future.”
