Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 5

His voice was bone-chilling as if it came from the depths of hell.

Frightened out of her mind, Nicole skirted around him.

He can’t stay here. If the three kids come looking for me…

With this train of thought, she made a mad dash for the exit.

Evan’s gaze darkened, and he quickly went after her.

She’s running? So, it’s really her!

Nicole panted as she ran. When she looked over her shoulder, she couldn’t help herself from swearing like a trooper.

Why can’t I seem to lose him? Gah! Is he even human? How is he so fast?

During the past few years of staying abroad, she was only given the opportunity to gain medical skills. No one taught her how to escape from a dire situation. If someone did, she wouldn’t be running for her life right now!

“Ahhh!”

Suddenly, Nicole was pushed to the ground.

“It really is you!” Evan’s demonic voice sounded from above her.

Nicole inhaled sharply from the pain and looked up to see Evan’s glacial expression. She was slightly dazed, and an idea came up to her. Instantly, she schooled her features to show a look of confusion. Ah, I know! I’ll just pretend to be clueless!

“Who… Who are you?”

Evan frowned slightly before releasing a cold snort.

“I guess I’ll just have to refresh your memory a little bit!”

With that, he hauled her up from the ground and mercilessly dragged her with him.

“H-Help! He’s kidnapping me! This is sexual harassment! Help me-”

Nicole’s screams for help were cut off when the back of her neck was suddenly karate-chopped. Instantly, her vision went dark, and she passed out immediately after.

Half an hour later.

“Ahhh!”

A bucket of ice-cold water was dumped onto Nicole, waking her up with a jolt while looking like a wet rat.

She opened her eyes and wiped her face in panic. Then, she spotted Evan staring at her with a terrifying expression on his face.

Where am I?

Her eyes darted around the space as memories flooded her mind in raging torrents. Everything’s over. I’ve really fallen into Evan Seet’s hands!

“Do you remember who I am now?”

Nicole froze up and shook her head vigorously, still feigning ignorance.

“Does this place seem familiar?”
