Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo

Damn it, I was kidnapped so the kidnapper can find out whether I’m really an idiot or just putting up an act?

Who is this lame, huh?

Is it too late to pretend to be an idiot now?

Her lips curved up in a silly grin as she turned back. However, the silly grin on her face froze in shock when she saw who it was.

“Am I wrong?” Stephen asked, as she remained silent.

His sharp gaze was fixated on her.

Nicole felt guilty under his stare. She knew it was useless to continue her act.

Sir Musgrave is a petty man. I framed him once, but he kept an eye on me ever since. He even caught me acting like an idiot!

“Yes, you’re right. I was pretending to be an idiot. But I have a reason for doing so.”

Stephen looked at her thoughtfully. He was certain Nicole was simply playing along because Daphne wanted her to be an idiot. She’s just trying to protect herself.
