Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo novel Chapter 1932

Chapter 1932 Put Your Guard Up

Meanwhile, Zayden stood up for Yuvan. Although Joy was still doubtful, she did not pursue the matter since she knew it was pointless to ask further.

Even if Yuvan had a grudge against her mother, he would not tell the truth and would only brush her off.

Zayden, on the other hand, had only been thinking about Sheila’s promise—as long as he did not forget his lines, he would be rewarded with a surprise. “Yuvan, we must practice hard. We must try to film all the scenes in just one take. That way, I’ll be able to receive Mommy’s surprise. I bet it must be a special present.”

Noting the expectant look in Zayden’s eyes, Yuvan patted the former’s head and promised, “Don’t worry. As long as I stay here, I’ll do my best to work with you.”

“Okay. I’ll cover for you and let you stay here safely.”

Joy eyed the both of them with a frown. If Yuvan really is the wolf, then Zayden has not only let the wolf into the house, but he has also bound himself to the wolf.

She sighed in her heart. Looks like I’ll have to be aware of Yuvan and make sure he doesn’t trick Zayden into doing stupid things.

Zayden knew that Joy was not a simple-minded person, considering how she had been scrutinizing him. He decided in his heart that he should look for Zayden if he needed anything in the future and avoid her at all costs to prevent her from ruining his plan.

“Zayden, we should quickly practice our lines for tomorrow.”

“Okay! I’ll get the scripts.”

Yuvan went along with Zayden to memorize the script. Joy, on the other hand, watched them for a while before leaving the room.

Meanwhile, at Rodney’s request, Maya followed Wilbur home for dinner. Janice seized the opportunity to please Maya by trying to get close to her, serving her with all kinds of drinks, and providing all kinds of assistance. However, all of her actions only made the former uncomfortable.

“You don’t have to treat me like that. You’re pregnant. The person who needs to be taken care of is you.”

Janice smiled. “It’s fine. I’m willing to do all these. Besides, we’ll be a family in the future. I hope we can be like sisters. I don’t have an elder sister. That’s why I’m treating you like my sister.”

Maya nodded. “I know.”

“Where do you want to go? It’s still early. Why don’t we take a walk around the mall?”

“Sure!” Maya beamed.

When Rodney returned to the room, Nicholas eyed Janice with contempt. “You’ve been treating Maya so well. Just exactly what are you up to? Even if you’re up to something, you should at least let me know and not keep me in the dark, right? I can’t keep up with your acts. It’s really disgusting.”

Janice’s lips curled into a cold smile. “I’ve got to lay my foundations before revealing my intentions. Otherwise, everything will go to waste. I’m sure my plan this time will definitely make Maya believe in me and that I sincerely want to get close to her.”

Nicholas did not know what her intentions were, but he hoped she would succeed soon.

Everyone in the company respected Wilbur because of Maya’s relationship with the Seet family, treating him as though he was the successor of the Simpson family. On the contrary, Nicholas’ presence in the company was weakening. In fact, he could not even get a single bargaining chip to strike a deal.
