Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 848

That familiar threatening voice rang in Maya’s ears. “If you tell others about this, your Mommy will be in jail, suffering for the rest of her life.”

Evan persuaded, “Maya, you can tell Daddy.”

 
 

Fidgeting her chubby fingers, Maya glanced at Evan as tears welled up in her eyes.

“Maya, don’t be afraid. Tell Daddy.” Evan continued asking Maya questions and saw the pensive look in her eyes.

Suddenly, she cried out, “Mommy, I’m sorry… I’m really sorry…”

 

What will happen to Mommy if Daddy knows? Will Mommy be in jail forever?

 

Evan, the doctor, and the other three kids looked at Maya without saying a word.

In fact, they were surprised at how Maya reacted. Why would Maya feel sorry for Mommy? What does this have to do with Nicole?

 

Suddenly, Susan barged into the room.

“Evan, how’s Maya?” She looked very upset when Evan turned to look at her.

 

She continued, “I’m so sorry, Evan. I didn’t take good care of Maya. After knowing Maya fainted and was sent to the hospital, Leah wanted to leave. I tried to force the reason out of her, but she committed suicide after admitting to abusing Maya as she feared the consequences.”

After hearing her words, Evan fell silent.

She died?

Evan narrowed his eyes.

Working as a maid in Hillside Villa for a few years, Leah had always been dutiful. But why would she abuse Maya?

Susan looked at Maya with her face etched with pain. “Maya, don’t worry. Leah’s dead, so she can’t hurt you anymore. It’s my fault for not noticing your sufferings. I will call your Mommy and tell her to come back for you. Is that okay?”

When Maya heard her Mommy would take care of her, she nodded fervently.

As long as I can be together with Mommy, I don’t care if I got beaten.

Susan said, “Maya, don’t be sad. I’ll take good care of you from now on.”
