    Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo Chapter 1576


    Held As Hostage


    “Davin, do you think I will believe your nonsense?”


    Upon receiving Riley’s signal, the bodyguard who stood beside Steven immediately moved forward and


    uttered, “Mr. Maupay, Evan must have sent him here to sow discord. He wants to break your other


    arm!”


    Riley quickly chimed in, “That’s right, Mr. Maupay. This must be the case. Evan is a ruthless and


    cunning person. He must be afraid about his family’s impending doom, so he sent his brother here to


    cause confusion and upheaval. It’s a dirty tactic to undermine your revenge n!”


    Davin sneered. “Steven, you’re free to investigate the veracity of my statement. I have a witness.”


    “It’s all staged. The evidence must be fabricated! I’ve been working for Mr. Maupay for over twenty


    years. I have no reason to harm him! Besides, if I’m the culprit, why do I still choose to stay by his


    side?” Riley retorted.


    “Because you’re using him to target Seet Group.”


    “Bullsh*t! Why would I target Seet Group?”


    Greed? Could that be the reason? But it just doesn’t make sense! Davin thought.


    At that moment, he suddenly realized that there must be a more important reason.


    It did not take long before he recognized his oversight. All he knew was that Riley plotted to destroy the


    Maupay family and Seet Group, and thetter would stand to benefit should that happen.


    Still, his motive was unclear.


    Noticing Davin’s silence, Riley taunted, “Cat got your tongue? Can’t you even think of a proper excuse


    before showing up and using me?”


    “use you? Steven has so many men by his side. Why should Mr. Davin target you but not the


    others? It must be your problem!” Saul piped up.


    Riley looked at him and scoffed. “The answer is simple. He knows that I’m serving Mr. Maupay as his


    butler and is his most capable assistant. Once I’m out of the picture, that will leave Mr. Maupay


    vulnerable! All you want to do is disconcert Mr. Maupay so that I won’t be avable to aid him. With


    that, you’d be able to jeopardize his revenge n!”


    Saul seethed with rage. “Y-You are spouting nonsense!”


    “I’m merely speaking the truth. You know that Seet Group is done for, which is why you’re resorting to


    such underhanded measure.”

    “You’re the person that is done for. Own up and be a man, you rogue!”


    “Enough. Tie them all up, especially Davin. He’s Evan’s younger brother. Blood is thicker than water.


    Even if Evan doesn’t care about his wife, he must surely care about his brother. Thus, he holds more


    valuepared to her. Watch him closely and never let him get away!” Steven ordered and gave Davin


    onest look before stalking off.


    “Yes, Mr. Maupay!”


    Saul was distraught. “Mr. Davin, I think there’s no use trying to exin to Steven, that stupid pig. I think


    it’s better if you leave immediately. Don’t let yourself fall into his hands. That will onlyplicate the


    situation and make things harder for Mr. Evan.”


    At the same time, the bodyguards sprang into action upon receiving Riley’s order. They surrounded


    Davin and his group, refusing to let them leave.


    Sweeping his gaze around them, Davinmented, “It’s not that I don’t want to leave, but I don’t think


    the situation permits.”


    “We’ll fight our way through!” Saul replied.


    Davin sighed. “We’re severely outnumbered. There’s no use resisting if it will only cause us more harm.


    I say we swallow the bitter pill. Don’t make unnecessary sacrifices. Juan and Kyle will think of a way to


    rescue us, so let’s just take it that we’re here as guests.”


    With that said, he took a step forward and stared at Steven’s men. “Hey, don’t attack. We won’t resist.


    Lead the way, and we’ll follow you to wherever you intend to lock us up. It’s a win-win situation for both


    parties.”
