Chapter 1435 The Truth
Juan glared at Sally.
Sally turned around and glanced at Juan. Why are you looking at me like that when all I did was tell the truth?
Kyle shifted his gaze from Sally to Juan, and he stared at his brother for a moment before heading upstairs without saying anything else.
He knew Sally was telling the truth just by looking at Juanâs expression. There was a faint smile on his face when he turned around and strode off.
Sally was puzzled at Kyleâs departure. Did he walk away just like that? Shouldnât he at least say something? Itâs so challenging to read him!
âI advise you to stop wasting your effort on Kyle. He doesnât care for you that much.â Juan glared at Sally as he walked over to her.
Sally turned around. âWhat does that have to do with you? Itâs none of your business.â
âOf course itâs my business! Youâre my girlfriend, and it doesnât reflect nicely on both of us for you to be flirting with another man.â
Sally was startled to hear that. She sized Juan up. âThis is just an act weâre putting on. It would be best if you donât get too deep into your character. We can easily end things whenever we want to.â
Juan froze for a second. âI still wonât allow you to seduce Kyle. He deserves better than you!â
âI believe thatâs his decision to make instead of yours!â
Juan fell silent. Is she really trying to seduce Kyle? In her dreams! I will never allow that to happen!
After sending Sally off, Maya and Nicole sat on the brown couch and chatted over fruits.
Maya asked Nicole curiously, âMommy, why do I feel like Sally cares more about Kyle than Juan?â
Nicole paused for a moment. âPerhaps itâs genuine, orâ¦â Or she has an agenda.
âOr what?â
Nicole took a bite of an apple as she pondered who would win a battle of wits between Sally and Kyle.
Sally was bold and great at using reverse psychology, whereas Kyle was meticulous and calm. They were both also incredibly intelligent.
But if two intelligent people were to fall in love, logic could no longer apply to their situation. People in love would normally act the exact opposite of their usual personalities and sometimes even behave impulsively.
Who would be the winner between the two then?
âMommy, whatâs wrong? What are you thinking about?â
Nicole snapped out of her daze. âTheyâre all adults now, and they can settle things on their own. We should be focusing on Bernian Hospital and your food plaza instead of worrying about them.â
Maya gave it a thought. âYouâre right. We canât do much as outsiders too. Speaking of the food plaza, Mommy, things can be hectic with the weekend crowds. Iâm thinking of expanding it once Daddy is back.â
âSure. Expand it if you want to. Iâllâ¦â Nicole suddenly paused.
She wanted to say she would support Maya wholeheartedly even without Evan being physically here. However, she then recalled that she had already invested all her money into Bernian Hospital. Therefore, she couldnât be of much help for the time being. Hence, she looked apologetically at Maya. âIâm afraid my hands are tied. Why donât you wait for your dad to help you once heâs back?â
Maya nodded. âSure! Mommy, now that Nina is at K Nation, do you think sheâs looking for Chris?â
Upon hearing this topic, Nicole felt a migraine coming on.
If only Nina had listened to me and not sneaked her way to K Nation. If she found out that Chris is already dead⦠I donât think sheâll be able to take the truth.
