Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 1686

Chapter 1686 A Third Wheel

“Nope. I’m good, Kyle. I heard that your girlfriend is pregnant. Congratulations!”

To that, Kyle only nodded and did not say a word. It seems like everybody heard the news. Then I’d better work harder to make it a reality.

“Kyle, did Sally give you the other half of the map?” asked Juan, who was standing just nearby.

“Not yet.”

“Why not? Is she reluctant to give it to you?”

“I just forgot to ask her for it. I’ll do that tonight.”

“You better. I heard we’re not the only ones looking for the treasure. Many are already doing whatever they can to be the first to locate it. We can’t afford to fall behind.”

“Are you that interested in the treasure?”

“Of course! Rumor has it that whoever finds the treasure will be invincible. Not only will one gain unlimited wealth, but they’ll also discover all kinds of secrets and mystic arts. How can anybody not be interested?”

As soon as Juan finished, Evan and Nicole came downstairs.

“Daddy! Mommy!”

“Daddy! Mommy!”

“Daddy! Mommy!”

Immediately, all three of the couples’ children greeted them.

Evan fixed his eyes on Juan as if they were glued onto his son.

Juan started to feel uncomfortable being stared at like that. “Is everything okay, Daddy?”

“Did I just hear you say something about a treasure, Juan?”

“That’s right. Why don’t you let me and the Hidden Masters search for the treasure? I promise that we won’t disappoint you. We’ll find it as soon as possible.”

“That’s not something you should worry about, Juan. I have something else in the office that I need you to work on.”

Juan was stunned. Why? That treasure is insanely valuable! Everyone wants to find it, but not Daddy? Why isn’t he interested? Besides, Kyle has always been the one handling things in the office, so why is Daddy suddenly handing me an assignment?

“We don’t need a third wheel.”

Evan wanted to spend some time alone with his wife and would not make an exception for anyone, not even his own children.

“I promise I won’t get in the way. You won’t even know I’m there!”

“No!”

Maya’s feelings were hurt when her father turned her down again. “Fine. I’ll go shopping with Nina, then.”

“If it makes you feel any better, I’ll bring you something delicious.” Nicole felt somewhat sorry that she had to leave Maya behind.

“That only works on Joy, Mommy. Why don’t you buy me some gorgeous-looking dresses instead?”

“Sure, I’ll do that.”

“Thanks, Mommy!”

There was a jealous look on Juan’s face as he watched his parents leave. “Just look how loving those two are. I can’t believe they’re going out on a date as if they just started seeing each other.”
