Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo
Chapter 521

While she was leaving the Levant Winery that afternoon, she had lied about craving some fish so that they could have their dinner here at the Amazon Hotel. She certainly hadn’t expected him to prepare such an enormous fish for her.

“I don’t know if this dish will be to your liking. Come, dig in.”

“Thank you.”

Nicole picked up a pair of bamboo chopsticks and tried a mouthful. “This is the unique taste of the food here.”

“As long as you like it.”

As Zackery watched on from the side, his lips curled into a smile.

They look so much like a loving couple. This is a brilliant opportunity. Should we up the ante so that Mr. Levant can win her over on a single date?

And the sooner Mr. Levant accomplishes his goal, the sooner I’ll be able to get my handsome reward!

Upon coming to this realization, he discreetly withdrew from the room to make the necessary preparations.

As Levant gazed into Nicole’s angelic face just inches away from where he was, his pulse began to race.

He unconsciously wanted to open up to her.

“Ms. Lane, may I address you by your name?”

After a moment’s consideration, Nicole nodded and replied, “You may.”

Levant smiled. “Then I shall address you as Nicole. Do you know the kind of environment that I grew up in?”

“Sir Musgrave’s home must be no ordinary place. I’m sure that there must have been lots of rules?”

“That’s right. Sir is a very stern person. I respect him and I also fear him at the same time. He has sacrificed a lot for the family, including a lifetime of happiness. But I’m luckier than him. I met you, fell in love, and can even ask you out.”

“……”

Hey, we both have different motives. This is just an act we’re putting on.

Why are you saying all those cheesy stuff? It’s as if we’re really a couple on a date.

An uneasy feeling began to creep in.

Furthermore, putting the fact that he had to marry her aside, even if he really did like her, she felt that it was more of lust rather than love.

Upon noticing the disdain on her face, he smiled nonchalantly and continued, “I’ve come to realize that you’re the one, so I will definitely be sincere and true to you. Nicole, give me a chance. I can give you a completely different life.”

Nicole only felt uneasy as she gazed into those loving eyes.

“Levant, we’ve just started getting to know each other. I think it’s best if we refrained from such talk.”

“You’re right, I was overthinking things. I just wanted my feelings to be made clear so that you’ll be able to understand how I feel about you.”

Nicole’s lips twisted into a strained smile. “Let’s eat first. I’m famished.”

“Of course.”

Levant then proceeded to help her put food into her bowl. Nicole glanced at him and said, “I can do it myself.”

Meanwhile, Zackery was walking towards the private room with a bottle of red wine in his hand and a wide smile on his face.

Just then, someone suddenly cut in front of him and blocked his path.

“Who are you?” Zackery exclaimed.

“……” Without any response, this person just stood in front of him wordlessly.

Zackery still had urgent business to attend to and this person was holding him up.

“Who the f*** are you?” he bellowed.

“I’m the one who’s going to teach you a lesson!”

The moment this person had finished, he swiftly knocked Zackery out and proceeded to drag him into an empty private room.

Gazing at the bottle of red wine that had been spiked, an ominous expression flashed across his eyes.

After replaceing himself a set of clothes that the waiters were wearing, he changed into them and entered the private room with the bottle of red wine in hand.

The moment he entered, he was greeted with the sight of Nicole and Levant having their meal.

As the both of them talked and dined by candlelight, it certainly did seem like they were having a romantic date.

As he approached the both of them, Levant glanced at him and said, “I didn’t order any wine.”

“It was a Mr. Williams who told me to bring this here. He left after receiving a rather urgent phone call and instructed me to inform you about it.”

His deep baritone voice immediately caught Nicole’s attention.

Raising her head, she was greeted with the sight of a strange face. He was neither Yoda nor Evan.

But this voice…

As the waiter lowered his gaze, icy daggers seemed to fly out of his eyes.
