Chapter 1719 Who Is She
Nina had just gone up when a woman with heavy make-up rushed over.
The latter took one look at the receptionist before running for the elevator.
âHey, wait!â
The woman paused and turned around to face the receptionist.
âWhat?â
âMay I know who youâre looking for?â
âIâm here for Mr. Simpson.â
âDo you have an appointment?â
âI⦠Um, no, but I have a unique relationship with Mr. Simpson, so thereâs no need for me to make an appointment,â replied the woman with a shy expression.
âOh, are you a family member?â asked the receptionist.
âNo,â answered the woman while shaking her head.
âThen Iâm sorry, but youâll have to make an appointment if you want to talk to Mr. Simpson.â
âI donât need an appointment. Iâm the mother of his future child and his fiancée.â
The receptionist was rendered speechless in surprise when she heard that.
Didnât Mr. Simpsonâs girlfriend just head over to his office? Why is another woman here claiming to be his fiancée?
The receptionist was so surprised and confused that she remained rooted to the spot. As that was happening, the woman claiming to be his fiancée walked right into the elevator.
âAh, wait!â
The receptionist tried to stop the woman, but it was too late. The elevator had already gone up.
Mr. Simpsonâs girlfriend is there right now, and his fiancée is heading over⦠Oh, his office is going to be a mess soon.
Shoot! If the two ladies get into a fight, will Mr. Simpson put the blame on me and say that I didnât do my job? The receptionist was truly worried.
Nina entered Wilburâs office. When he first saw her, he thought she was Maya, but he realized something was off upon taking a closer look.
âAre you⦠Nina?â
âHuh, not bad. You saw through everything and recognized me. Maya and I are twins, and we look identical, so how did you know it was me? How do you always know whoâs who?â
âYour aura, demeanor, and style are more mature than Mayaâs.â
Ninaâs lips curved into a small grin. She had gone through more than Maya had, so it was only natural that she was more mature.
âWhy are you here?â
Nina crossed her arms and said, âIâm here to ask you what youâre planning to do to resolve the matter between you and Maya.â
Wilbur didnât answer that. His gaze seemed grim, and he suddenly became more serious.
âWilbur, is that woman pregnant with your baby?â
Wilbur didnât respond to that either. He picked up the cup of tea on his desk and took a small sip before saying, âStop asking about it. Just take care of Maya.â
âAre you hiding something? Are your hands tied? There are tons of stupid schemes involving fake pregnancies, so please tell me sh*t like that isnât actually happening to you.â
âThe pregnancy is real,â replied Wilbur as he placed the cup of tea aside.
Nina was momentarily taken aback. She blurted, âSo that woman is actually pregnant? Is the baby yours? Or is someone trying to put the blame on you?â
Wilbur closed his eyes for a while. He didnât get to answer that question before the door was flung open. A woman walked right into the office. âWilbur, are you busy?â
As soon as that woman finished speaking, she noticed Nina standing there. The formerâs expression took a sharp change.
Nina could tell that the womanâs glare was filled with hostility.
Hence, she scrutinized the woman before asking, âWho is this?â
âIâm Janice Moniker, and Iâm Wilburâs fiancée. Weâve met before.â
Weâve met?
Nina was stunned, but she later thought about how Janice had introduced herself as Wilburâs fiancée.
Is she that pregnant woman Maya mentioned? She said that weâve met before, so she probably thinks Iâm Maya.
When Maya had returned to Y City, she told her family how a woman had barged in and claimed to be pregnant with Wilburâs baby.
Thatâs probably when the two women met.
Oh, this is almost too perfect. I was going to investigate the matter. How great is it that the culprit shows up right in front of me?
Hmm⦠since she mistook me as Maya, I might as well just play along. Iâd like to see what this pregnant woman is really made of, anyway.
âJanice? Oh, thatâs such a beautiful name,â said Nina.
Janice was stunned. She didnât expect âMayaâ to react that way.
When they last met, the real Maya had been so violent that she had smashed something onto Wilburâs head. Yet now, that same woman was calmly praising her love rival and had a mocking grin on.
Is she pretending to be gracious and generous?
