Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 1998

Chapter 1998 Psychological Trauma

While Nina accompanied Wilbur into the doctor’s room for his checkup, Maya and Nicholas had no choice but to wait outside. The latter even snuck glances into the room as he paced around, wondering if the drug injected into Wilbur would be detected.

This newly developed drug is supposed to be colorless, tasteless, and virtually undetectable. That had better be the case! Otherwise, I’d have spent all that money for nothing!

Twenty minutes later, Wilbur finally came out of the room. “Well, there’s nothing physically wrong with the patient. His test results are perfectly normal,” the doctor announced. “Normal? Then why is he like this?” Maya asked.

“I believe it’s because the patient suffered a huge blow. Why else would he go to the extent of jumping into the sea? He might already have been under severe emotional and psychological trauma before the incident. That’s our best guess for now.”

Upon hearing that, Maya gaped in silence. I knew it was all my fault! I was the one who dealt him the blow! Nina sighed. “Maya, now that Wilbur’s in this state, do you still want to be—”

“Nina, it’s all because of me that Wilbur’s like this. How can I leave him now?” Maya interrupted, tears brimming in her eyes. “No. I won’t leave him. I’m going to find the best doctor to cure him. Oh! Mommy! Yes, Mommy will be able to help him!”

Just as Maya was about to call Nicole, Nina stopped her. “Calm down, Maya. Why don’t we send Wilbur to Bernian Hospital first so Mommy can give him a checkup?”

“That’s a good idea, Nina. All right, let’s go now.” “Come on. You can tag along!” Nina said as she looked at Nicholas.

At that moment, Nicholas was practically over the moon. He knew he was in the clear because not even the doctor and the hospital’s fancy equipment could detect the drug in Wilbur’s system.

Despite being confident that the test results wouldn’t be any different at Bernian Hospital, Nicholas still decided to delay the visit for the sake of Rodney.

“Okay, but my father’s on his way here. Can we at least let him see Wilbur first?”

In her urgency to let Nicole tend to Wilbur, Maya retorted, “Can’t you tell him to go straight to Bernian Hospital?”

“Maya, it’s fine. Waiting for a while more wouldn’t make any difference. Besides, Mr. Simpson is Wilbur’s father. It’s only right that he gets to see his son.”
