Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo

Chapter 2011

Chapter 2011 One Billion

“Wait! There’s something that I need your help with.” “What is it?”

“Maya and Wilbur can’t continue filming anymore. After our film crew discussed it, we think that it’s best if we change the main characters to Nina and Stephen. It won’t affect the subsequent filming either.

You know that I wanted Nina to act as the female lead initially, but she rejected my offer because she’s busy with work. I’m afraid that she’ll continue rejecting me if I ask her again. Hence, I want you to convince her and Stephen. This won’t be a problem for you, right?”

Davin turned around and scrutinized her. “If I help you with this, shouldn’t you give me some benefits?”

“What benefits do you want?”

“I heard that the owner of the manor in the Southern suburbs is related to your dad. I want your dad to help me negotiate the price.” “What’s your ideal price for the negotiation?”

“The lower the better! It’s great if the price is a hundred million lower. This will depend on your dad’s abilities.”

After thinking about it, Sheila nodded just to brush him off. “Okay, I’ll call my dad.”

“Deal!”

After Davin left, Sheila whipped out her phone and called Patrick. Soon, he picked up the call. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

“Sheila, why did you call me? How’s your shoot going?”

“Hi, Dad! I met some problems, but Davin will help me settle them. You don’t have to worry about me! I’m calling you to ask you about something. Davin went to look at the Chamomile Manor that’s being

sold in the Southern suburbs. It’s owned by the Muir family, right?”

“Yeah! Did you say that Davin went to look at it? Does he want to buy it?”

“He’s planning to. How much do you plan to sell the manor for?”

Patrick thought about it for a while. “One billion!”

“One… Dad, why did I hear that you were planning to sell it for eight hundred million?”

“I did want to sell it for eight hundred million, but the price increased afterward. Sheila, the Seet family is so wealthy. Do you think that they’ll care about a few hundred million?”

Sheila was speechless. “Dad, did you just increase the price because you heard that Davin wants to buy it? How can you treat your son-in-law like that? It’s true that a few hundred million means nothing to the Seet family, but it’s different for me and Davin! You know that we don’t really have any savings. We can’t fork out one billion—even eight hundred million is stretching it. Can you make it cheaper? Davin heard that the owner of the manor is related to you and wanted your help in negotiating the price!”

“Sheila, that manor is definitely worth a billion! Furthermore, I’m selling it because the Muir family encountered some problems with the cash flows. We need money to solve this urgent problem. Although you’re the daughter-in-law of the Seet family, you’re still part of the Muir family! You need to help your parents and brother! Think about the Muir family!”

“What are you trying to say, Dad? It’s your daughter and son-in-law who need the Southern suburbs manor now. This has nothing to do with the Seet family. I just want to ask if you can give me a discount because I’m your daughter. I want to see how important I am to you based on how big a discount you’re willing to give.”

“Sheila, aren’t you putting me in a tight spot? If you buy the manor, it would be owned by the Seet family, not the Muir family! Well, I won’t ask for much. How about eight hundred million, like what you mentioned earlier?”

“Seven hundred million!”

“No way! The company urgently needs money. Your mom even asked me to request some money from the Seet family for the cash flows. I refused because I didn’t want to cause more trouble for you. You should stop trying to take advantage of me too, okay?”

“Dad, what do you mean, taking advantage of you? By virtue of the fact that I’m your daughter, you should give me a discount for the manor! If you sell it to us at seven hundred million, we can ask Mr. Seet to help you with the cash flows. How’s that?”
