Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo Chapter 1377

Suspicions

She had once suspected that the reason for Stephen’s change in behavior and his cold attitude to her
was because of another woman.

That was why Melanie had been paying close attention to him. Later on, she found out from his
colleague that he was quite close to Nina and would even try to lighten the latter’s burden voluntarily.

Ms. Nina…

Did Stephen fall for her?

It was due to her suspicions that she visited Seet Group and purposely established her dominance in
front of Nina.

Melanie thought that Stephen would treat her better after doing that, but she had never thought that he
would continue being cold to her. She even had the feeling that he was repulsed by her.

Did Stephen really fall for Ms. Nina?

The woman paled at the thought of this. Feeling uneasy, she instantly got up and headed upstairs.

Stephen was standing by the window and staring at the night view outside. The tall and stalwart man
looked exceptionally lonely and sad.

He’s becoming more and more brooding.

Melanie walked over to him and asked softly, “What do you want for dinner?”

“Anything is fine.”



“You look tired these days. Are you still not recovered from the surgery?”

The man turned to look at her, inexplicable fury rumbling inside him.

He quickly clenched his fists and tried his best to suppress the anger before saying calmly, “It’s nothing.
I’m just tired from work.”

“You’re always waking up in the middle of the night to come up with blueprints. Anyone would be
exhausted like that.” Stephen knew very well that she was complaining.

He kept silent for a second before smiling at her. “I won’t do it anymore. I’ll be back right after work
hours end, and I’ll spend my free time with you.”

Melanie was surprised by his words. A smile appeared on her face as her eyes lit up with anticipation.
“Really?”

“Yes.”

“You’re the best, Stephen! Thank you.”

She threw herself into his arms and embraced him happily. Feeling repulsed and uncomfortable by the
sudden intimacy, he instinctively pushed her away and said, “All right. You should go make dinner now.”

“Okay. I’ll make your favorite.”

Stephen nodded, and Melanie left to the kitchen happily.

Silence returned to the study room. Stephen looked down at his chest again. I’m your owner now. I
won’t let you affect my life. I’ll never let you do that.

…



A month later, the construction of the hospital was finally completed.

Both Nicole and Evan were satisfied with the overall layout of the place.

They walked into one of the wards to look around. The walls were clean and white. There was a vase
placed on the wooden table with fresh flowers that were emitting a faint fragrance. The overall effect
was calming.

Sunlight permeated through the windows, brightening up the whole room.

“I never expected my wife to be this good at designing. The floor plans and layouts seem to make
much more sense after you amended the blueprint,” Evan praised.

“I know nothing about designing. All I did was research and collect useful information. Kyle and Juan
helped me with the references, so it can’t be considered my work.”

“You’re too humble, Mrs. Seet. You’re in charge of the hospital from now on. We need to give it a name
as soon as possible. Do you have anything in mind?”

“I’ve thought of a few during the hospital’s construction, but I’m not sure which one suits it more. Maybe
you can come up with something better?”

“What are the ones you had thought of?”

Nicole was stunned for a moment, but she still told him the names she had thought of previously.

“Well, firstly, there’s Caring. I want the people working in this hospital to be caring and full of love for
our patients. Then, there’s Peace, since I want this place to be a calm and peaceful area for our
patients to heal in. I also thought of Blessed, with the prayer that the patients would all recover and be
healthy one day. I think that’s all for now as the rest are somewhat similar in vein. Do you have
anything in mind, Mr. Seet?”
