Mistaking The CEO For A Gigolo Chapter 1747
Chapter 1747 The Engagement Party
Maya frowned upon hearing Janice’s words. Is she living with him in the Simpson residence now?
While she turned to look at Wilbur, the man cast an annoyed nce at Janice and said, “Go home first.
I need to speak with Maya.”
Janice was undeterred. “Is it work-rted?” she asked with a sharine smile.
“It is.”
“Oh, that’s wonderful! Maybe I can stay and listen too. It’ll be good prenatal education for our baby,
don’t you think? Your dad was just sayingst night that he’s going to let our baby take over the
Simpson family’s business when they grow up. It never hurts to start the education early.”
Maya suppressed the urge to roll her eyes. Prenatal education? What ame excuse. She obviously
wants to stay around.
However, she could not help but wonder if what Janice said about Wilbur’s father was true. Did Old Mr.
Simpson already decide to let the child inherit the business? He sure is generous to his unborn
grandchild. But there’s a chance that the baby isn’t even Wilbur’s… Although I guess the baby is still
technically a Simpson if the biological father does turn out to be Wilbur’s brother… Does Wilbur not
have any objections? Is he going to stand idly by?
In spite of her puzzlement, Maya was unwilling to voice her questions in front of Janice. I guess I
should leave ande back after she’s gone.
Just as she was going to excuse herself, Wilburmanded Janice sternly, “I need to discuss
something important with Maya, so I need you to leave now!”
For a second, Janice appeared affronted. However, the look disappeared just as quickly as it came,
and she smiled in understanding.
“Sure, I was just kidding about staying. Have a good chat with Ms. Maya,” she said, stopping on her
way out to look at Maya. “We’re holding our engagement party three dayster. It’d be great if you
coulde and witness our union, Maya.”
She sounded sincere, but Maya had a distinct feeling that Janice was establishing her dominance over
Wilbur. “Back off, he’s mine,” was what she understood from her gaze.
“Sure, I’ll be there,” Maya agreed readily.
“Great! Okay, don’t let me hold you two up.” Janice then told Wilbur, “I’m heading back to cook now, so
remember toe home early tonight!”
Instead of waiting for his reply, she shed him a gentle smile and left.
“You two are living together now?” Maya asked when the door was shut.
“She’s pregnant and needs someone to take care of her, so she moved in. Does that bother you?”
After a moment of silence, she replied, “As I said just now, I came because I was curious about
something. Anyway, I wanted to ask—is Janice’s baby yours?”
“What do you think? You were the one who smashed a bottle over my head because of this.”
“I…” Maya’s voice faltered. After casting a nce outside the office, she said in a muted voice, “I heard
that the baby is your brother’s. Is it true? What exactly is happening?”
Frowning, Wilbur did not answer but instead responded with a question of his own. “Do you have any
proof?”
“I don’t! That’s why I’m here to ask you.”
“Will you believe me if I told you?” The man chuckled.

“I will if you’re telling me the truth,” she answered after giving it some thought.
“And how will you know if I am?” he asked, regarding her with curiosity.
That stunned her. “I… I can deduce it!”
“Maya, I’m d you’re here, but I can’t tell you anything for the time being. If you really believe in me,
pleasee to the engagement party. You’ll know everything then.”
The engagement party? Is something big going to happen there? She looked at the man in front of her,
assessing. Though he appeared calm andposed as always, she could see the weariness in his
eyes. It’s as if he’s burdened by something.
It was then that she made up her mind. “All right, I’ll be there.”
