Chapter 1894 He Belongs To Me
That night, Evan inquired about the audition. Nicole didnât tell him about someone shoving her, merely saying that the audition went smoothly, and she only had to wait for the filming to start officially.
âWhen the time comes, Iâll go and support you.â
âWhat about Bernian Hospital, then? Didnât you say that youâll help me manage the hospital?â
âIâm just going to go occasionally, not stick by your side all the time. Iâll choose a time when it isnât busy at the hospital to go over.â
âHmm⦠All right then.â Nicole nodded smilingly.
Subsequently, Evan asked her about Wilbur and Mayaâs display of affection on the set, which he had seen online. He expressed his satisfaction at Wilburâs proclamation that he would only have a single female lead in his life and would never act alongside any other female celebrities.
âNever had I expected Wilbur to be so loyal to Maya that he would even decline to film with other women. Such devotion is really rare.â
âIndeed. Following his declaration, all the women on set envied Maya and even lauded them as a match made in heaven!â
Nicole was beside herself with joy, delighted on behalf of Maya.
No sooner had she said that than the clatter of high heels drifted over from the staircase. Nina hastily walked over to them and inquired about that matter.
âMommy, did you witness Wilbur and Mayaâs public display of affection on set with your own eyes?â
Nicole nodded in affirmation. âYup, I also happened to be there.â
âI really didnât expect Wilbur to utter such a remark. Iâm even jealous of Maya now. How incredibly lucky that she found a boyfriend whoâs so loyal and treats her so well on her first try! How envious! Undeniably, Lady Luck is smiling on her!â
âDonât say that. Youâre lucky as well. Anyway, she makes a good match with Wilbur. Heâs blessed that he has the good fortune to be with my daughter!â Evan exclaimed.
Pouting, Nina lowered her head and looked at the trending post again. Then, she remarked that it was great publicity for Sheilaâs movie that the male and female leads loved each other so much that they put on a display of affection on set though filming hadnât yet started. She reckoned that there would be quite a number of people who would watch the movie because of Wilbur and Mayaâs profound love.
Nicole nodded once more and added that someone on set vowed to watch the movie just because of that.
âIn that case, Uncle Davin and Aunt Sheila should really thank Maya.â
âWeâre a family, so that doesnât matter. Besides, theyâve been great to all of you throughout the years. Everyone should be happy that they can do her a favor.â
âYouâre really magnanimous, Mommy!â
âIsnât it being formal to be so calculative among family members? Theyâve never been calculative toward us either!â
âThat makes sense, so youâre right, Mommy! Iâm going upstairs to look for Maya and remind her to save these news reports. If Wilbur wants to go back on his word in the future, she can then take them out and confront him!â
After saying that, Nina clattered up the steps on her high heels again.
âWhat an unrestrained kid!â A smile bloomed on Nicoleâs face as she watched her daughter hurrying up the stairs.
Janice happened to see the trending news about Wilbur and Maya. Her expression darkened frightfully.
Although she was forced to get engaged with Nicholas, the person she loved was still Wilbur. At the sight of the latter promising Maya his devotion for a lifetime, jealousy and envy deluged her. Hatred toward Maya even bubbled within her.
She tried convincing herself that he didnât give Maya such a promise because he loved her. No, itâs just because⦠because sheâs Evan Seetâs daughter and owns shares in Seet Group. He wants a collaboration with Seet Group, so he needs her to pave the way. Therefore, heâs merely utilizing her. Heâs definitely using her! Yes, thatâs it! That must be it!
She clenched her hands hard, repeating that to herself time and again so that she would actually believe it.
Then, she dipped her head and glanced down at her slightly bulging belly.
With this child and my engagement with Nicholas, Iâll be able to enter the Simpson residence anytime. Thus, thereâll definitely be an opportunity in the future to bag him! Maya, Iâll make sure that Wilbur loathes you! Heâs mine! He belongs to me! Letâs just wait and see!
