Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 2008

Chapter 2008 I Will Always Wear It

“This is Maya’s favorite lucky item. It was given by a friend on her birthday. Maya hopes that it can bring good luck to Wilbur.” Nicholas was silent. Good luck?

What good luck can an object bring? Dream on! If Wilbur can survive for the rest of his life, that is good luck enough! “You’re so kind to my brother, Maya. Wilbur, this is her present to you? Well, you must wear it with care!”

Wilbur held the ball tightly, ignoring him. When Rodney arrived home from outside, seeing Maya, he immediately greeted her politely. “Hi, Maya, when did you come here?”

“It’s been some time already.” Rodney glanced at the high-end mahogany tea table and threw a tantrum. “Why is there no tea or pastries being served? Is this the way the Simpsons treat our guests?”

Mabel rushed downstairs in a hurry. “Mr. Simpson, we don’t see Maya as an outsider, so we did not treat her like a guest. She only cares about looking after Wil. Even if we make tea, she wouldn’t care about drinking it.”

“How rude! Maya is looking after Wil! What are the maids for?”

Zayden glanced around thoughtfully. Then he told Rodney about how he saw Wilbur picking up fruit from the ground to eat but the maids did nothing about it. Instantly, Rodney glared at Mabel in fury. “What happened?”

“M-Mr Simpson, it’s my fault. I was discussing the company business with Nic. So, for a while, I was not watching Wil. Wil was… Mr. Simpson, it was my fault. I’m sorry.”

Wilbur stood by quietly, not saying a word. However, Maya spoke up for Mabel, explaining that Mrs. Simpson had many responsibilities and it was understandable that sometimes she could be so occupied that she could make a mistake. Mabel was taken by surprise when Maya made excuses for her and she agreed repeatedly. Then, she praised Maya for being understanding and a truly well-brought-up daughter of a reputable family.

Maya glanced at her and changed the topic. She said it was understandable for Mabel to make a mistake, but the Simpson family should not permit the maid to watch Wilbur eat fruits fallen on the ground and do nothing to stop him.

“T-This is not permissible in the Simpson family. The maid is ignorant. I will punish them later.” Mabel explained hesitatingly.

Zayden pouted. “I don’t think the maid is ignorant. She is too obedient and she did not dare to do anything.”

“I think so, too. Definitely, someone stopped her.” Joy reaffirmed his words.

“You, you two kids. What are you talking about? I love Wil more than my own son. I…”
