Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 1907

Chapter 1907 Sister

Janice gazed at Maya as poorly concealed jealousy and disdain contorted her features. How lucky is she to be born into such a powerful family to be highly coveted by the Simpsons! If I were in her shoes, I would have already locked Wilbur down for myself.

My father-in-law would be so pleased with me that he would start treating me like royalty. Unfortunately, life isn’t that fair to have granted me an advantageous start! Some of us have to slog for what we have.

Feeling deeply uncomfortable with the way Janice was staring at her, Maya cleared her throat timidly. “What a coincidence, Janice!”

With a start, Janice hastily rearranged her features. Then, with a disarming smile at Maya, she replied, “It is my honor to dine with you.”

Rodney chuckled. “Fate has brought us together as our own little family. Let’s raise a glass and let bygones be bygones, shall we?”

“I’d like that,” Maya said graciously. “The Simpson family will thrive and prosper from now on!” Janice sneered. Not for long.

“It’s forgotten,” concurred Janice sweetly. “Now that I am engaged to Nicholas and pregnant with his child, we are practically family already! Maya, you’re going to be my sister-in-law! I will treat you like my very own sister. I hope you can treat me like yours too.”

Though Maya felt startled by Janice’s disconcerting change, she nevertheless reciprocated the latter’s smile.

That’s really all I want—to coexist peacefully. If Janice can find it in herself to keep from sabotaging me, I would be willing to sign a truce.

“Enough chitchat,” roared Rodney boisterously. “The food’s getting cold!”

The hubbub around the dining table was soon replaced by the gentle clinking of cutlery.
