Mistaking The CEO For A Gigolo Chapter 1751


    Chapter 1751 The Key To The Treasure


    I can’t believe that the prospect of a treasure trove couldn’t even tempt someone as money-minded as


    Davin. It seems like his cowardice surpasses his greed. He must’ve refused to go because he thinks it’ll


    be dangerous. How am I going to convince him to go?


    Levant’s mind whirred as he came up with another n.


    Meanwhile, Davin was looking down at his phone’s screen that had dimmed, thinking that he should


    not have hung up just like that.


    I should’ve told him off more and vented my frustrations. Why do I always think of all theebacks I


    should’ve said after hanging up? It’s the same when I argue with Sheep. After every argument, I’ll feel


    like I didn’t express myself well enough. I only think of what I should’ve said to get back at her when I’m


    lying in bed at night. I’m losing my touch. I’ve got to practice more. Look at what happened just now. I


    was trounced by Levant when he went off at me like a psycho. Why didn’t I just give him a piece of my


    mind immediately? Why did I wait for him to finish?


    Davin sighed heavily, determined to work on his argument skills.


    He had just put aside his phone and closed his eyes to rest for a while when he heard the door


    opening.


    A person dressed as one of the staff entered and walked toward Davin with his head lowered.


    Davin’s brows knitted. “What is it?”


    The man did not speak as he continued walking forward.


    Davin nced at the man warily. Sensing something amiss, he sprang to his feet and opened his


    mouth to question the man. However, he suddenly saw the glint of a de and felt a dagger pressed


    against his neck.


    “It’s been a while since west met, Davin.”


    This voice! It sounds so familiar! Is it… Lucas?


    Davin felt his heart lurch. “You! What do you think you’re doing?


    “Well, the Seet family foiled my ns against Steven. Considering that fact, what do you think I’m going


    to do?”


    Crap! Is he here to seek revenge? What should I do? I don’t want to agitate him further, so I shouldn’t


    retaliate using force. With that dagger he’s holding, my life is in his hands. I can’t afford to anger him!


    “Lucas, you can’t me us for what happened. The person you loathe is Steven. You shouldn’t be


    ruining the Seet family instead!”


    “What did you say?” Lucas asked coldly. Davin’s chest tightened as he felt Lucas move the de


    against his throat ever so slightly.


    “C-Calm down! I know you hate Steven. I think he’s an eyesore too! That’s why I kicked him out of the


    hideout and took over his territory. I wanted to see him defeated and miserable!”


    As Davin spoke, he observed Lucas’ expression and saw that thetter seemed to approve of what he


    just said. Hence, Davin continued, “I think the two of us should work together. If we get rid of Steven,


    you’ll have gotten your revenge, and the hideout will be mine. I’ll be able to make even more money-”


    “Shut up! This is the Maupay family’s turf. Even if Steven isn’t in the picture, you won’t be in the


    position to im it as your own. It’ll belong to me!” Lucas snapped, cutting Davin off in mid-sentence.


    Davin sneered inwardly. You? Pfft! If it does end up in your hands, there’s no saying what’ll be of


    it. It’d be better to leave it to me!


    “I don’t have time to talk nonsense with you, Davin. If you want to live, then hand over the key to the


    treasure.”


    Davin looked bewildered. “The key to the treasure? What key?”


    “Stop ying dumb. That night when Imperial Garden was about to get bombed, Evan gave Steven a


    coffer. The key to the treasure is inside a coffer that looks just like that!”


    “Inside that coffer? I had no idea! Didn’t you say that Evan gave it to Steven? Then you should go and


    hunt down Steven! What’s the use ofing to me?” asked Davin.


    “I did, but there was no key in that coffer Evan gave him. It was a fake. The real coffer with the key is


    still with Evan!”


    Davin thought hard for a moment, then shook his head. “No. That can’t be. Evan gave him the real


    one.”

    A dangerous look zed in Lucas’ eyes. “Davin Seet, I’m done arguing with you. You’re going to help


    me with this. You have no other choice.”
