Mistaking The CEO For A Gigolo Chapter 1800


    Chapter 1800 Webs And Ordeals


    His bold deration was met by silence until Levant rolled his eyes at him. “I heard that Frida is adept


    at using floral scents to conjure up illusions. What if she conjured up some kind of weird dreamscape


    and caused your brother to lose himself? He could mistake Shermaine for your sister-inw, and if that


    were the case… the consequences would be unthinkable.”


    Davin shuddered. Even though his confidence had been shaken, he stuck to his guns. “No. That won’t


    happen. My brother will be able to tell the difference!”


    Out of ideas, Draven and Damien turned to Levant. “Do you think we should go and rescue Mr. Seet,


    Mr. Levant?”


    “Yeah, let’s go right away. Worsee to worst, we’ll take them all down with us!”


    Levant weighed up their options and concluded that it might be better for them to head back and await


    news. Noting the merit of one of Davin’s points, Evan should not be in any mortal danger for as long as


    Shermaine remained enamored with him.


    However, it would seem that there was no escaping this predicament for Evan. Perhaps, this was a trial


    he had to undergo at some point in his life. So, good luck with it, my good man!


    The group returned to the cave, where Jeremy was shivering under a hefty nket. Jensen, who was


    seated just beside him, did his best to keep the former distracted through idle banter.


    When he saw that they had returned, Jeremy quickly asked, “The antidote. Have you got it?”


    With their heads lowered, Draven and Damien wandered off to the side. After meeting his gaze briefly,


    Levant, too, walked away. Only Davin was left standing there by his lonesome self, not knowing how to


    respond to Jeremy’s expectant gaze.


    Jeremy would be sorely disappointed if he were to learn that we didn’t manage to get it! Yet, that is the


    immutable fact.


    “Try to be patient, Jeremy. Maybeter, my brother will be back with the antidote,” Davin said.


    After hearing that, Jensen’s brows were furrowed. That was when he realized that Evan was missing.


    “Didn’t Mr. Seet return together with you guys?”


    Davin scratched his own nose and responded with a grin. “No. He hasn’te back yet.”


    Jensen then turned to Damien and Draven. “Why have all of you returned when Mr. Seet hasn’t?”


    “Mr. Davin let us.”


    “Mr. Davin told us to.”


    The duo chorused.


    Jensen continued to probe. “Then, Mr. Seet…”


    “Alright. You can stop asking now. Evan’s trapped in Frida and Shermaine’s web but will be back with


    the antidote after he gets through his ordeal,” Levant exined.


    This analogy of webs and ordeals seemed to have left Jeremy and Jensen increasingly confused.


    “Allow me to exin.”


    Draven then pulled up a wooden chair in front of them and made himselffortable before he rted


    theings and goings of the entire situation.


    A quarter of an hour passed before the wooden door was pushed open. In came Juan.


    “I saw Lucas and Steven, Uncle Davin.”


    “Steven? Is he here too?”


    “Yes. Steven’s going to kill Lucas, and the men on both sides were really going at it just now! I don’t


    know who leaked the news that Daddy has passed the key to the treasure to Lucas, though. Not just


    Steven, now there are others who are going after Lucas for it as well!”


    “Hmph. Has simply holding on to it made Lucas so popr? Truly, this key’s one heck of a thing!” It


    was unmistakable that Levant’s tone intimated that he was enjoying a bit of schadenfreude.


    “Lucas is such a nasty piece of work that he should count himself lucky that others are only after the


    key. May he spend the rest of his days running and hiding from being hunted like vermin,” said Davin


    between gnashed teeth.


    “Do you really hate him that much, Uncle Davin?”


    “How could I not when I have him to thank for almost getting me killed? I do wish I could give him a


    proper thrashing before I do him in!”


    “I’ll give you a hand with that, Uncle Davin.”


    Davin gave it some thought before he replied. “Perhaps not right now. I’ll call on you when the time is


    ripe. Then, you and I shall go seek him out to settle the score.”


    “Okay.”

    “By the way, Juan, I haven’t seen you around all day. What have you been up to?”


    “I, uh… went up to the mountain but unexpectedly lost my way and was only able to find my home back


    when it was close to dusk.”


    “Is that so? We went up there as well, so why didn’t we run into each other?” Davin followed up.
