Maya kept quiet. She didn’t want to leave her Daddy, who had been hugging her to sleep in the past few days, but she couldn’t bring herself to tell her Mommy that either.
Meanwhile, Nina was disappointed. So Mommy’s still going back to Wicked Palace…
“Mommy, are you going to have another wedding with Mr. Levant?”
Our wedding got canceled halfway through. Knowing Levant, he’d definitely want to have another one. Nicole thought to herself.
“Yeah, in a few days.”
Maya and Nina exchanged glances. Mommy’s gonna have another wedding in a few days? What should we do?
“This is some good quality waterproof paint, Nina. It looks just like the real thing! Did the makeup artist do this for you?” Nicole asked while staring at the wound.
Nina froze. Did Mommy notice something off about the wound?
Just then, Maya replied, “Nina bought the paint herself. Juan provided her with the money for it.”
Juan had a part in this as well? So he didn’t actually faint, then!
“Maya! Why would you betray us?”
“I…I didn’t mean to! I-It just slipped!”
Nina shot her a fierce glare. “You can’t do anything right!”
Maya lowered her head and didn’t dare say another word.
Looking at her crestfallen face, Nicole patted her on the head. What on earth happened while I was away? This is the first time Maya hasn’t punched anyone after being insulted! My poor baby looks so scared!
“Nina, you should be nicer to your sister.”
Heeding to her mother, Nina glanced at Maya, who was nervously rubbing her chubby hands together.
