Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 1948

Chapter 1948 Arrival

Wilbur was at a loss as to what he should do. Any more, and he would be shaking in his boots. He was sure that Evan was thinking, This boy must have grown a lion’s heart to make my princess unhappy. I’m going to have to teach him a lesson!

He then lowered his head, not knowing what he should say to defend himself. The atmosphere turned awkward. Nicole hastily gestured for him to sit.

“Wilbur, sit down first. Maya’s about to make a wish. Why don’t you be by her side as she makes her wish?”

“All right.” He then walked over to sit down beside her.

However, Maya shot him an unhappy look. “I’m not in a rush to make a wish. I’d rather find out why you’re late. Weren’t you talking about how my birthday was soon a few days ago? I thought you were going to prepare a surprise for me. Yet, not only did you not surprise me, but you’re even late for the celebration. Have you forgotten that it’s my birthday today?”

“I-I didn’t forget about it. There was something that came up suddenly, so I was a little delayed. That’s why I was late.” “What happened?” Maya continued questioning.

“It’s…” Wilbur hesitated as if it was something he found it difficult to voice. It made Maya even more curious as her frown deepened. “It’s what? Do tell me.”

After sweeping his gaze across the people around them, Wilbur said, “I’ll talk to you about it in private later.” Although Maya was still curious, she did not press on the matter.

At that, Nicole hastily said, “All right, Maya, make your wish. Everyone’s hungry, and we can only cut the cake after you’ve made your wish.”

“Maya, although I don’t think you should let him off the hook easily, the taste of the cake is too tempting. Why don’t we eat and ask at the same time?” Zayden said as he stared at the cream cake, almost drooling.

“He’s right, Maya. I want to try the cake too. It’s definitely better than the ones from before.” At the urging of Nicole and the two kids, Maya decided to temporarily let Wilbur off the hook.

She then closed her eyes and made a wish before blowing out the candles. Then, she cut the cake and gave the slices to everyone.
