Chapter 1733 Do Not Worry
Maya was utterly shocked when she heard that. “What did you say, Kyle? The child isn’t Wilbur’s?”
“Yes. I heard that the baby’s father may be Nicholas, Wilbur’s brother.”
“If so, why won’t he explain it to me?” Maya asked bewilderedly.
“I suppose he has his own concerns.” Kyle came up with a random excuse.
Concerns? What concerns could he have?
Maya fell deep into thought.
Noticing that Juan was about to comment on it, Nicole quickly interjected, “I think you made a fair point about there being a reason for everything, Juan. So I would like to ask, what is your reason for wanting to go to Daemonic Mount so badly?”
As soon as she said that, everyone shifted their attention toward the boy as they awaited his explanation.
Like everyone else, Evan also fixed his eyes on Juan.
Having always felt that the boy was overly obsessed with treasures, he had also deduced that there was another reason behind it.
Now that Nicole had popped the question, he was eager to hear Juan’s response.
Juan blinked twice before replying, “I think that you’re all aware of the reason, Mommy. Since Daddy mentioned that the antidote to cure Faye is on that mountain, of course, I want to go there to look for it.”
“Really? Given your interest in treasures, aren’t you going to look for that as well this time?”
With a grin across his face, he answered, “Since the treasure is also on that mountain, I might as well go look for it as well while I’m there, Mommy.”
“I don’t think you’re just looking for it casually, Juan. You seem to be fascinated by treasures. But I know that you’re not a greedy person, so can you tell me what exactly your reason is for being so obsessed with treasures?”
A hint of mischief flashed in his eyes upon hearing her question. This is a huge secret. I can’t say it. Absolutely not! Otherwise, I’ll get into trouble, big trouble!
“You’re thinking too much, Mommy. I’m simply interested in it, like how you are with medicine, Kyle with business management, Nina with makeup, and Maya with food. If everyone can have something they like, why can’t I?”
Nicole fixed her eyes on her son. She could tell from his averted gaze that he was not telling the truth.
The actual reason was in those words that he nearly blurted out at Kyle’s bedroom earlier on.
Similarly, Evan was also aware that Juan was hiding something. He exchanged glances with Nicole as they came to a silent agreement not to probe any further.
After that, Nicole moved onto Nina.
“Are you getting on well with Stephen, Nina?”
“There’s no need to worry about my matters, Mommy. I know what to do.”
Stephen had just gifted her a bouquet of red roses. She felt as though she was about to fall into the sea of love and indulge in its sweetness.
Saying it out loud will only ruin the wonderful feeling I’m experiencing. Besides, I’ve always made my own decisions, and I don’t need their opinions. So, I can handle my own love affairs.
“All right. I won’t probe any further.”
Nicole then turned to Kyle, but he quickly uttered before she could, “Don’t worry, Mommy. I’ll do my best to handle the company affairs.”
“I believe in you!” she encouraged.
Finally, her eyes fell upon Joy, who was eating diligently.
Joy smiled brightly at her. “I’ll eat well, sleep well, and go to school, Mommy. You need not worry about me.”
“I haven’t been spending much time with you, Joy. I’ll be sure to do that when I get back.”
“Okay. I’ll wait for you to come home, Mommy.”
After saying that, Joy seemed to have suddenly recalled something as she looked at her mother earnestly.
