Chapter 1721 Nina Hated Wilbur
Wilbur didn’t expect Maya to be so cruel that she wouldn’t even work with him professionally.
Nina, on the other hand, took note of how Wilbur was reacting to it all. She hesitated for a moment but eventually said, “The truth is, I came over even though I don’t agree with Maya’s decisions. There has to be more to what’s happening between you and Janice, right? I believe that you’re an honorable man. Unfortunately… Well, you heard what Janice said earlier. She’ll abort the baby if Maya stays with you. Do your parents really wish for the baby to be born and also want you to marry her? The most important bit, however, is the matter of her baby. Is it really yours?”
Wilbur couldn’t speak for several seconds. A complex glow flashed past his eyes before he replied, “Sorry, but for the time being, I can’t answer any of your questions.
“With regards to this contract, though… You know what? If Maya is really that adamant about cutting ties with me, then I’ll sign this contract. I’ll also stop all related operations.”
Nina was so surprised that she didn’t respond to that.
He’s not even going to try explaining himself? And why is he so quick to agree to terminate the previous agreement? How heartless can this man be?
“Is this you cutting all ties with Maya? I’m very confused. Are you really in so much trouble? Why won’t you explain yourself? Don’t tell me Janice is actually pregnant with your baby, and you’re truly looking forward to being a dad.”
Wilbur tilted his gaze up to glance at Nina. The former then signed on the dotted lines and claimed, “Yes, I’m looking forward to being a dad.”
Nina was lost for words. She frowned when she saw how calm and collected he seemed.
“Are you actually…?”
“Yes, that’s right. There’s no story to it, and my hands aren’t tied. I’m simply happy that I’m about to be a dad.”
What the f*ck? Is this for real?
“Is the baby really yours?”
Wilbur didn’t answer. He simply picked up the cup on his desk and sipped some tea.
Nina frowned once more. Okay, either things are really that grave that he absolutely can’t say anything about it, or the baby is actually his… Which scenario is more possible?
With that said, Nina glared over in distaste and rolled her eyes at him before turning around to leave.
Bam! The door to the office was slammed shut at the very next second.
Wilbur narrowed his eyes a little. Maya actually called me a jerk? Wow, she really has a terrible temper. My gosh, is it not bad enough that she hit my head? Does she have to call me a jerk, too? Gah, never mind. I’ll be the jerk for now if it means that Maya will be safe.
Wilbur’s assistant knocked on the door and entered the office to report, “Janice is still in the parking lot, Mr. Simpson.”
Wilbur wasn’t surprised. He had already guessed that Janice wouldn’t leave without causing a fuss.
If she sees Nina leaving here in a huff, she’ll be less hostile toward the real Maya. That should help keep my Maya safer.
Maya is too innocent to be involved in a mess like the Simpson family.
“Got it,” replied Wilbur. “I don’t care what happens next. No one is to butt in on the incident that will happen in the parking lot.”
