Chapter 1600
Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo Chapter 1600
The Real Riley
“What? Then who would bear such an immense grudge against you and the Maupays? Who would
possibly set up such an borate scheme?”
“I’m not sure too. I’m still looking into it, but I’m sure we’ll be able to figure it out. Sally, take good care
of yourself and don’t worry about these things. By the way, how’s your brother? He isn’t having a hard
time in Imperial Garden, is he?”
“Don’t worry. He’s not. He’s looking into Riley’s matter with Juan as well.”
“That’s good to hear. You and your brother are my children. If anything happens to either of you, I’ll
definitely drag the people in Imperial Garden with me to hell. Evan knows that, and since you also have
the Seet family’s child, they’ll be nice to you.”
“That’s why you don’t need to worry about us, Daddy. Be careful when you’re looking into Riley’s case.”
“I will.”
“Daddy, about what happened back then… Mommy’s a victim too. She has been suffering all these
years. Now that Skyler and I aren’t there, please keep herpany whenever you have the time.”

Steven was silent for a moment before he squeezed out, “I understand.”
After ending the call, the image of her mother quiet and gloomy appeared in Sally’s mind. She could
not help but sigh about how fate was cruel so to her.
If nothing had happened back then, would Mommy be as happy as Nicole is now? I heard that Daddy
used to adore and spoil her. Can he never forgive Mommy for that incident? That wasn’t Mommy’s fault
either. Did he love her too much? Is that why that incident affected him that much? Or is it because he
didn’t love her enough, and that’s why there is a wall between them that can never be taken down?
Sally was genuinely confused. Somehow, she felt that perhaps her father never did love her mother
that much after all.
That’s why Daddy would still be so affected by the matter even though neen years had gone by
since then. That’s why he can’t let go and forgive Mommy. Well, love is soplicated.
Upstairs, in the bedroom.
Evan was sitting on the rattan chair and patiently listening to Levant speaking on the phone. He had a
gloomy expression on. Once in a while, he would frown, and once in a while, he would tighten his grip
on his cup.
When Nicole, who just came out from the bathroom, saw the grave expression on his face, rm bells
rang in her head.
Once the call was over, Nicole worriedly walked to him and asked, “Is there any news of Nina?”
Evan put his phone to the side and tilted his head upward to look at her. “Levant said he found
something, but he isn’t sure if that’s Nina or not. He said he’ll continue looking into it.”
“What did he find? Has he found Nina’s whereabouts?”
A dark look shed past Evan’s eyes before he nodded.
“Where is she? Where has she gone to? Is she fine?” Nicole blurted out.
She wanted so badly to find out what happened to Nina.
Evan then reached out his hand to hold hers and consoled, “Don’t worry. Nina’s a lucky girl. She’ll be
fine.”
Despite his reassurances, Nicole’s heart was still thumping loudly. No matter what Evan said, she felt
that was not all Levant had said to Evan. Is he hiding something from me?
Thus, she looked at him with wide eyes and asked, “We’ll look for Nina tomorrow, okay? I’m really
worried about her. Nina’s stubborn, and she’s a prideful soul who won’t seek help even if things are too
tough for her. I’m really scared that she’s having a hard time right now.”
At that, Evan stood up and pulled Nicole into his arms. Parents would always be worried about their
children, so he knew well how anxious and distraught Nicole was at that moment.
“Okay, we’ll go tomorrow.”
Nicole hugged him back tightly, but she could not think of anything else other than Nina. What has my
Nina been through?
The night seemed rather long. Nicole kept tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
Evan reached out to wrap his arms around her. “Sleep. Rest well so that you’ll have the energy to look
for Nina.”
