Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo
Davin was still denying everything. “No! What are you blabbering about? I don’t get you at all.”
“I don’t care whether you get me. When it comes to searching for Crystal Rose, you can forget about
being a part of the action,” Kyle said before he left.
Davin was very surprised. Kyle had clearly been tricked into staying on in the office to handle the
problem. How did he suspect that I was the mastermind after spending merely half a day in the office?
This kid is really not easy to deal with!
No, I definitely cannot allow Kyle to go to Nepenthe Valley to search for Crystal Rose! I have to convince
him! He then quickly followed after Kyle. “Kyle, listen to me…”
Kyle just walked away and seemed to completely ignore Davin’s shouts.
Did that brat really not hear me? He is completely ignoring me!
Davin was getting anxious. “What’s wrong with you, Kyle? We didn’t get along when you were young,
and you are still behaving like this now that you have grown up? Not only did you eavesdrop, you just
barged into my room like this! How much ruder can you be?”
Kyle stopped in his tracks and glared at him. “If I’m rude, what about you when you left the company in
that mess? Were you polite? Where are your principles? Where is your…”
Upbringing. This word was stuck in Kyle’s throat when he saw Sophia walking down the stairs.
It did not seem like a good idea to tell his uncle that he lacked upbringing in his grandmother’s presence.
She probably would not be happy to hear that.
“Kai, I’m your uncle. You can’t speak to me like that.”
Kyle sniggered. “I don’t want to speak to you like that either. I have always been like that since I was
young and you should have gotten used to it by now.”
Davin frowned and spoke to him seriously, “I can still ignore the fact that you spoke to me like that when
you were a child, but you are a grown-up now. You can’t speak to me like this and neither should you go
against my orders.”
Kyle looked conflicted. “You can’t do that. We have never gotten along so why are you forcing it?”
This little brat, how dare he speak like that?
“Fine, just leave the search of Crystal Rose to me. In the meantime, you take care of Seet Group and
don’t disappoint your daddy when he comes back.”
“It’s very difficult to locate Crystal Rose. I am afraid that you may not have the intelligence for it.”
Looking indignant, Davin said, “How dare you look down on me? In order to prove my ability, I have to go
on this mission.”
Kyle sized him up and sniggered confidently, “Pfft, it’d be a miracle if you can survive the trip!”
“Why? Are you planning to tie me up and stop me from going?”
Kyle fell silent for a while before nodding his head meaningfully, “Hmm, this could be an idea too…”
Davin continued arguing with him. Meanwhile, Sophia felt completely helpless at the sight of them
fighting.
“Stop fighting, you two. What’s the point? Nina is changing now and says she is heading out to meet
someone. I don’t think it is safe to let her go out on her own. Who is going to accompany her?”
Davin and Kyle exchanged glances before pointing at each other and saying simultaneously, “He can
go!”
Sophia sighed. “Both of you will go with her!”
Both of us?
Together?
Davin was rather worried about Sophia’s suggestion
“Mom, just get Kyle to go on his own. What if we get into an argument and can’t keep an eye on Nina?”
Kyle cast him a sideways glance and said, “Oh, you don’t have to worry about that at all. I will be
focusing on our mission and I won’t stoop to your level.”
Davin was not happy to hear that. Does that mean that Kyle still wants to go with me?
“Davin, you should show a good example as an uncle since Kyle has said this. Stop being at odds with
your nephew. This is a perfect opportunity and I think you two should go together.”
Sophia had just finished speaking when Nina appeared downstairs.
