Mistaking The CEO For A Gigolo Chapter 1978

Chapter 1978 Food Plaza

“Yes. Do you know me?” she questioned as she studied the man before her. “I don’t know you. But our lady knows you. She wants to talk to you about your food plaza.”

“Your lady? Who is she?” Maya asked curiously. “She’s your college classmate, Tilly Shaw.”

She thought about it and confirmed that Tilly was indeed her classmate. However, they never kept in touch with each other after graduating. Why does Tilly want to talk about the food plaza all of a sudden?

“Ms. Maya, there are too many people here, so it’s not a convenient place for us to talk. Please follow me upstairs. Ms. Tilly is waiting for you in one of the private rooms.”

Then, he added, “They will take at least half an hour to prepare the food you ordered earlier. I’ll wait for the food here on your behalf, and I’ll let you know once they are ready. It won’t take any of your time. Since you guys haven’t met in such a long time, just see this as a chance to catch up.”

Maya hesitated for a while.

To convince her to go upstairs, the man even mentioned that Tilly had once gifted her with an umbrella back then. “You should go see her out of politeness after she helped you when you were in need.”

Maya was always someone who would repay those who helped her. After hearing what the man had said and thinking of the umbrella, she decided to meet Tilly.

“All right, then. Please keep an eye out for the food I’ve ordered. Let me know once they’re ready.”

“Don’t worry about that. Ms. Tilly is in room 219 on the second floor.”

“Okay.”

A smug smile appeared on the man’s face as he watched her go up the stairs. Then, he tapped the WhatsApp button on his phone and sent a voice message, “She just went up. Act according to the plan.”

Once she reached the second floor, Maya began looking for room 219.

“206… 208… 213…”

When she finally reached the room, the door to the room next door, room 217, opened, and two people walked out.

“It’s a deal.”

“All right!”

Right at that moment, the door to room 219 opened. A man stood at the entrance, and Maya asked cautiously, “Is this the room Tilly is in?”

“Yes. Come in.”

Her voice caught the attention of someone from room 217. They looked over, and curiousness flashed across their face. Maya? Why is she here?

Tilly was nowhere to be found when she walked into the room. “Where is Tilly?”

Without saying a word, the man closed and locked the door behind him. Her heart thumped at that, and she glanced warily at the man.

“Why did you lock the door? Where is Tilly?”

“Tilly? There’s no Tilly here. Only me.”

The sly smile surfaced on his face as he stared at her like a starved wolf.

Alarms rang in Maya’s mind. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Crap! I fell right into their trap!

The man slowly stepped toward her. He was already right in front of her when she suddenly moved away from him and ran toward the door.

However, she couldn’t open it no matter how hard she tried, and she was getting more and more anxious by the second.

“Don’t waste your energy. There’s no way you can open that door. You better cooperate obediently. Otherwise, don’t blame me if you get hurt later.”

Maya glanced at the man and questioned, “Were you waiting for me here on purpose? Did you know I would come? Did Janice tell you?”

“You don’t have to waste your time asking. I won’t say anything. Now take off your clothes. Don’t force me to do it myself.”

Although he wasn’t saying anything, Maya knew very well that Janice was behind everything. After all, she was the one who told her to come here.

It looks like she had a purpose for telling me to come here after all. It’s not because of the signature dishes, but to set me up.

She started to question why Janice would do such a thing when she had been friendly and did everything she was asked to.

“How much did she pay you to do this? I’ll offer you double the amount if you let me out.”

“Double? People of Y City know very well how Seet Group is doing. Double the amount is just too little. How shameless of you to even say that!”
