Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo

Chapter 2076 The Promise

“Where’s the gift Mrs. Simpson received today?” “Erm… Mr. Simpson, Mrs. Simpson gave it to me for safekeeping and told me to keep it out of your sight. Hence, she’ll blame me if I hand it over to you. G-Going forward, I won’t be able to come here and visit Wil anymore. Therefore, I-I can’t give it to you.”

“Cut the crap, and hand it over!” Stumped, Mabel rubbed her fingers in hesitation before giving Wilbur a pleading look.

“Mr. Simpson, I-I’ll bring you the present. H-However, you’ll have to keep this from Mrs. Simpson on my behalf.”

He was familiar with the design of the ring, for it was known as The Promise which symbolized true love. Back in the day, he had given Angelique one and didn’t expect another man to give another to her.
