Chapter 2065 Joined Forces
After Damien helped Maya remove the rope around her wrist, she lifted a rock off the ground and remarked, âHere. Iâll show you proof.â
She went up before them and smashed the rock on every one of those men, leaving them howling in agony. âGosh, youâre pretty vicious. Iâm sure youâve cracked my toe.â
âMy elbow⦠There must be a fracture. It hurts so badly. Ouchâ¦â
âMy calf too. I canât walk now. Arghhhâ¦â
Maya threw the rock aside, dusted her hands, and exclaimed, âSo, do you believe me now? If you still donât, head over to the Seet residence to look for me. Iâm convinced that youâll believe when my daddy breaks your other arm or leg.â
The men stared blankly at each other and began lamenting how tough life was that they would even get fooled by Mabel.
Nonetheless, they could only grit their teeth and grumble about Mabel since they dared not hold a grudge against Maya.
âThat b*tch! Just wait and see; Iâll settle scores with her!â
âThatâs right. How dare she lied to us! We have to teach her a good lesson!â
Lifting the corners of her lips into a smile, Maya turned to Damien and asked, âWhereâs Wilbur? Any idea where is he?â
âThose men split up and took Wilbur and you to different locations. Iâm following you while Darius followed Wilbur. I guess heâll have the answer to that.â
âOh, quickly do it then.â
Damien made a call and got an answer to Wilburâs location shortly after.
âMaya and I will head over to help you guys now.â
With that, Maya and Damien rushed over as quickly as they could to meet Wilbur and Darius.
âWhat the heck? They took Wilbur to the beach?â
âYeah, maybe they wanted to drown him since they failed to do it the previous time.â
âYou guys found us so soon?â Darius sprinted over upon catching sight of the two.
Casting her gaze a short distance away, Maya saw Wilbur seemingly in a negotiation with the other party. The scene was unexpectedly calm and peaceful.
âWhatâs going on?â
âMr. Simpson is in a discussion. I heard a portion of their conversation earlier. It seems like theyâre thinking about dealing with Mabel and Nicholas.â
âWhat? Arenât those men trying to harm him? Why will they end up joining forces?â
Damien could not find an exact response to answer Mayaâs question. âMs. Maya, I guess you should ask Mr. Simpson yourself.â
When Wilbur saw her striding toward him, he stood up and stared at her in concern. âAre you all right?â
Maya nodded. âIâm fine. Luckily Damien arrived in time. Otherwise, I canât imagine what will happen.â
âI heard from Darius that Damien was protecting you in the dark, so I didnât rush over to save you. Itâs good that nothing has happened to you.â
âWilbur, so youâre all right!â
Wilbur laughed. âI didnât want to let you know about it yet so that I can do some stuff. But I canât believe theyâre so impatient to make their move that soon.â
âWhat else did you intend to do? What could you do while you feigned ignorance?â
âI canâ¦â Wilbur stammered and answered reluctantly.
Darius could not hold himself back and chimed in, âMr. Simpson mustâve wanted to take advantage of you.â
âThatâs nonsense! He wasnât nice to me while he put on his pretense. He even looks like he dislikes my presence.â
âThe others would be suspicious had I been nice to you and stuck by your side all the time. But I wonât have to worry about that anymore. There wonât be a limit to how nice I am to you, and I can do whatever I want from now.â
At once, Mayaâs face turned as red as a tomato. She was awfully embarrassed that she had no idea how to answer him.
âMr. Simpson, do you need us to give you two some space temporarily?â
âYeah, the scenery is amazing here too. Mr. Simpson, do you want to enjoy the breathtaking view with Ms. Maya?â
Wilbur shot a glance at the two who made those suggestions. âWe will have all the time in the world in the future. But for now, we still have important matters to deal with.â
âRight, letâs get back to business. Wilbur, arenât they intending to harm you? How did you manage to get them on your side?â
