Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 1901

Chapter 1901 Adding Insult To The Injury

“Yay! I can be a child star now!” Zayden shrieked in exhilaration. Joy, on the other hand, inwardly vowed that she must put on her best performance.

Then, many people would seek her out for endorsements, and she would be able to make tons of money. She wanted to save up all that money to do whatever she wanted in the future.

When Maya and Wilbur learned that the two children were going to film, they walked over. “Don’t be so hasty to rejoice. You can’t just act in the movie because you want to do so. It still hinges on whether your acting skills pass muster,” they reminded the two children who were cheering and jumping for joy.

“My mommy is the investor, so I can still act even if I don’t pass!” Zayden crossed his arms and lifted his chin, looking incredibly arrogant.

In response, Maya chortled, countering, “Although that is true, you’ve still got to have good acting skills. A lad’s acting yesterday was horrible. If the two of you match him, you might as well give up!”

When she had finished talking, Wilbur abruptly nudged her. She snapped her head around, only to spot Yuvan standing behind her.

She promptly froze in mortification.

Crap! How untimely! He probably heard my words earlier, huh?

Upon seeing that she had gone silent, Zayden inquired with wide eyes, “Who’s the lad with the horrible acting skills you spoke of, Maya?”

“It’s… It’s…” Embarrassed, Maya grinned and fibbed, “No one. No one at all.”

Behind her, Yuvan heaved a sigh. “Ah, I know my acting is terrible, but that’s because I’ve never acted before. I think I can do it if I practice more!”

“Yes, yes, of course. You can definitely do it,” Maya seconded.

At the sight of her lying through her teeth, Wilbur couldn’t help snorting. “Maya was too hasty in her speech earlier, speaking without thinking about her words. Don’t take it to heart. We have high hopes for you.”

“Yes, exactly! I just wanted to explain something to Zayden, not because I wanted to badmouth you. I simply mentioned you inadvertently. It wasn’t deliberate. I’m really sorry,” Maya explained with embarrassment etched on her face.

“When Mommy has a row with Daddy, she says Daddy’s unintentional words that were inadvertent was what he truly meant,” Zayden chimed in with his eyes wide, adding insult to the injury.

Maya glared at him, ordering him to shut up with her eyes. “You’re talking too much at such a tender age! People dislike kids who chatter too much!”

“What a lie! People love honey-tongued kids!”
