Chapter 1388 Be Harsh To Me

Maya could not understand that at all. She vaguely remembered Nicole telling her a similar thing, and she could not understand her parents.

Evan fell silent for a moment. “Anyway, let’s get back to breakfast. You still have to go to work after this.”

Maya remained silent after noticing that Evan did not want to talk more about this topic. She lowered her head and resumed her breakfast.

Nina, who was still standing by the dining hall, had a weird feeling after hearing that.

She was puzzled to hear Evan calling Chris a great man. Why did Daddy say that? I know how much he loves me. He should be feeling gravely disappointed in Chris to even talk about him. But why?

Nina felt that things were not as simple as they seemed to be. C-Could it be that there’s more than meets the eye?

She walked into the dining hall with a neutral expression. “Morning, Daddy and Maya.” She then started helping herself to the breakfast on the table.

“Nina, you don’t look too good. Do you need me to make you something nutritious instead?” Maya asked after noticing Nina’s pale face.

“It’s fine. Can you make me a light meal? I want to lose some weight.”

“Nina, you’re not that fat. You’re just curvy,” Maya said with a chuckle.

Nina smiled at Maya. “I know I’ve put on much weight while healing myself through the heartbreak. You can be honest with me. Maya, I remember I used to call you Piggy when we were still kids, and I even forced you to eat lesser. You can take your revenge now and treat me as harshly as I was to you back then.”

“Nina, we were still kids when that happened, and kids don’t think much before blurting things out. I didn’t take it to heart, and you don’t have to dwell on it either.”

Nina looked at Maya’s cheerful and delicate face, and she said with envy, “No. Maya, I hope you can treat me harshly. That’s the only way to make me slim down. You will be helping me.”

Maya blinked her eyes and gave this a thought. Nina’s words did make sense to Maya.

The tables have turned indeed. I have never expected that I get to criticize Nina for putting on weight. Is this a miracle? If Nina needs my help, I’ll be glad to help her!

She recalled the harsh remarks Nina used to make to her, and she smiled shyly at her. “Nina, if you need me to do this, you must make sure you can tolerate everything I’ll be saying to you next.”

“Don’t worry. I won’t get mad at you, and I’ll see it as motivation instead.”

Maya nodded, and her attitude took a drastic turn. She took away Nina’s food. “Stop eating! Just look at the fat around your stomach. How can you still eat when you’ve already put on that much weight? Do you even look at yourself in the mirror? Don’t you see that you’re looking more and more like a pig? At least I can sell off a pig for money. What can you give me in return?”

Maya pulled out all her harsh remarks. Nina smiled bitterly and walked upstairs.

Evan frowned as he shifted his gaze from Nina to Maya, sizing Maya up meaningfully.

Maya felt a little uneasy under his gaze. “Daddy, why are you looking at me like that? Nina asked for it. If you don’t like it, I won’t do this again.”

“I think you seem to be enjoying this. Back when Nina was being harsh to you, I had not expected to see this in the future.”

“I didn’t see it coming too. Well, Daddy, life can be dramatic, and we can never predict things.”

“But still, I hope you can be a little more considerate. You are not a child anymore.”

“I understand, Daddy. I’ll try to be more considerate next time.”

Evan nodded. He was about to step out of the dining hall when he saw Nina walking down the stairs. She said to Maya, “Thank you, Maya!”

“Nina, I used to think you were too harsh on me, and I even tried to eat more just to prove you wrong. As a result, it was difficult for me to slim down. I’m glad you can face the criticism with an open mind. It shows that you are determined to work on this. I believe you won’t take too long to slim down.”
