Chapter 1272: Chapter 1273

Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo Chapter 1273

“Don’t listen to your Mommy. I still remember how I defeated all of the bad guys in Y City back in the day. Zayden, you have to be tough so that the others won’t bully you. Get it?”

Zayden pondered for a brief moment. Scratching his head, he muttered, “Is it? However, Mommy told me that people who fight are boorish and unsophisticated. She warned me to never learn from you, Daddy. Mommy also encouraged me to be wise like Kyle, outsmarting people instead of fighting.”

Outsmarting? It seems like that won’t work on Joy. She’s a little know-it-all.

“It’s simply not enough to be smart sometimes. There will always be people who are smarter than you. You will have no other choice but to use your fist in such a situation. Do you understand?”

As soon as Davin finished talking, a voice could be heard from behind. “He’s just a kid. How could you teach him to fight a girl? Stop it, or he will grow up to be an aggressive person.”

Instinctively, Davin turned around only to see Levant together with Luke.

“Levant, I’m merely teaching my son some strategies to handle the bad guys. Don’t you get it?”

“Strategies? There’s no point in being foolhardy without weighing the consequences. If you wish to teach him some strategies, you should consider asking your son to learn something from Luke instead. Luke is recently analyzing The Art of War. Perhaps he could teach Zayden something from the book,” Levant remarked smugly.

Almost immediately, Davin sized Luke up and asked with curiosity, “Aren’t you only six years old? How can you understand the book?”

Nodding his head, Luke answered, “It’s a gift from Grandpa. Mom explained the book to me.”

Grandpa and Mommy, I see.

With that thought in mind, Davin shot Levant a cold glance and said frigidly, “Why is your father flaunting when it’s your mother who’s nurturing you?”

“It doesn’t matter who’s teaching him that. He’s my son, after all.”

“Yes, he’s your son. However, he’s a Watson. Have you ever considered marrying the mother?”

For some reason, Levant looked rather disturbed at the question. Thoughts began to fill his mind at that instant. It’s not that I don’t want to marry her. Tiffany is always busy with work, and I haven’t had the chance to spend time with her. Not to mention that she has been avoiding me lately.

Is she avoiding me intentionally? Or did I do something that caused her to hate me?

She used to like me, as far as I can recall.

At the same time, Sheila came down from the stairs with some imported snacks in her hand for the kids.

“I have some snacks here for you, kids. How about the three of you go play hide and seek in the courtyard?” she asked warmly.

Nimbly, Zayden grabbed a handful of chocolates, and Luke picked a few candies from Sheila’s hand. As for Joy, she did not take anything. After the kids took the snacks, Joy shot a look at both of them and grabbed their hands. “Come on, let’s go play in the courtyard. We shouldn’t interrupt the adults.”

Subsequently, the three of them held hands and walked out of the house together.

As the kids made their way out, Levant watched Joy walk away and say in amazement, “Joy’s such an understanding girl. She could read the room really well.”

Sheila then proceeded to ask, “So… What’s going on between you and Tiffany? Are you guys planning to get back together?”

In the past, Sheila used to treat Levant with a poor attitude. Nevertheless, she began to see him in a positive light when she witnessed how Levant took care of Zayden after bringing Nina back from Nepenthe Valley.

Inwardly, Sheila also felt that Tiffany and Levant were a perfect match for each other. For that reason, she wished that the two could be together.

As a matter of fact, Sheila had tried asking Tiffany about her feelings toward Levant. It seemed like Tiffany deliberately evaded the matter on the grounds that she had to prioritize her career. Sheila could tell that Tiffany still had feelings for Levant, nonetheless.

It was just that things were not working well between them due to what had happened before. Levent had hurt Tiffany deeply that she was still unable to move on from the past. To Sheila, Tiffany’s reaction was perfectly understandable, for she was just trying to protect herself from another heartbreak.

“Levant, you’ve been spending a lot of time together with Tiffany these two years. What do you feel about her? Do you think she’s suitable for you? I can see that Tiffany is becoming more competent. She’s definitely good enough for you.”

“Even though we’ve been spending time together, she seems rather aloof and detached. To be honest, I feel estranged from her. She’s building a wall around her heart, making it hard for people to understand or get close to her. Maybe she’s just not that into me?”
