Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 1853

Chapter 1853 Janice And Nicholas

The moment Janice and Nicholas appeared, the guests instantly started whispering to each other.

“What’s going on?”

“Right? Isn’t Wilbur the star of the engagement party? Why did Nicholas appear instead?”

“I heard that Janice’s kid is Nicholas’. It seems like what I’ve heard is true!”

“That’s right. Otherwise, Nicholas wouldn’t be the one getting engaged to Janice.”

The guests had much to say.

Both Nina and Maya were taken aback as well, wondering why Nicholas became Janice’s fiancé.

Right as the volume of the whispers was getting louder, Rodney and Mabel came out.

“Everyone, I’m glad that you have come to attend my son’s engagement party. Please, let me express my gratitude first…” Rodney started his speech with a smile. Beside him, Mabel was beaming as well.

However, unbeknownst to the guests, the smiles on their faces were fake. The only Simpson with a genuine smile on his face was Wilbur.

Maya was completely dumbfounded as she watched the two people in the front. Nina was surprised as well. Nonetheless, she was glad that Wilbur had proven himself to be capable by making the birth father of Janice’s child take the responsibility instead.

“I think you can reconsider about Wilbur.”

Maya silently glanced at her, but a small smile appeared on her face.

When Rodney was done with his speech, Wilbur walked over to Maya and asked, “Did you enjoy the show? Was it beyond your expectations?”

“What actually happened?”

“It’s a long story. I’ll tell you in detail when I get the chance to,” he said.

When Rodney saw Wilbur standing by Maya’s side, he walked over and exchanged a few words with the sisters.

However, the Baker family had always been suspicious about the death of his biological mother, Angelique Baker. Recently, Emmanuel found the maid who used to work for Angelique. It was then he uncovered certain things that allowed him to be sure that Mabel had something to do with Angelique’s death.

Wilbur had a hard time coming to terms with it.

He had always respected Mabel, so he could not believe that she was the one who killed his mother.

To ensure that he would not wrong Mabel, Wilbur personally looked into the matter. That was how he inadvertently found something amiss about the incident from years ago in which Mabel risked her life to save him.

After a thorough investigation, he learned the truth from the old butler who resigned from the residence. As it turned out, the entire incident was just an act planned by Mabel to win Rodney’s heart.

As he was young and naïve back then, Wilbur was oblivious to the vileness of humans. He had never suspected that Mabel harbored ulterior motives for treating him well, causing him to be fooled by her for years.

After finding out about the truth, he was in agony.

His impression of Mabel as a kind mother no longer existed.

Not long ago, to convince him to marry Janice, Mabel brought up the incident again, mentioning how she had put her life at risk to save him.
