Chapter 1993 Cutting Off Ties
Janice laughed mockingly. “Nicholas and Mrs. Simpson already knew how the baby died a long time ago. So, I’m sure you knew it too. But the three of you continued to play along with my lies.
Obviously, you were planning to use that matter to get something out of Seet Group! All of you only put your best interests first! You’re all selfish!” “Shut up! You unrepentant woman! Stop spouting nonsense!” Rodney yelled at Janice out of anger.
“You’re evil and shameless! How dare you slander our family after what you’ve done? It’s not that we don’t want to be on your side, but you’ve gone too far! There’s nothing for us to say anymore!
You were the one who lied to us about how your baby died! How could you twist the truth and blame it on us? Mr. Seet, Mrs. Seet, you’re the witnesses here. Why would we help someone who killed Nic’s baby?” Mabel added.
“That’s right, Mr. Seet. Don’t listen to her lies! We’d never help her!” Evan sneered at the sheer irony of the situation. “Why are you getting all worked up if you weren’t involved in her schemes?”
“W-We…” Rodney tried to say something, but no words left his mouth.
“We’re just afraid that you’ll misunderstand us. Since Wilbur and Maya are a couple, we’ll be in-laws soon. If any misunderstandings are left unsolved, it won’t be healthy for our families’ relationship and happiness. Don’t you think so?” Mabel explained.
Davin crossed his arms and stared at them. No wonder their reaction was strange earlier when they heard about the truth behind Janice’s miscarriage. My suspicions were right. What Janice said wasn’t to slander the Simpsons, but she was telling the truth.
“You don’t have to twist your words around. You know what you did or didn’t do best. As for us, we know how to differentiate the truth from lies.”
Rodney and Mabel exchanged glances and didn’t say anything else.
Then, Mabel glared at Janice as she cursed in her heart. This b*tch should go to hell! How dare she drags us into it! She should hurry up and die!
On the contrary, Nicholas was exceptionally quiet. It was because he had just received news that his orders had been carried out. Soon, Dad will receive the news.
As expected, Rodney’s phone rang seconds later.
“My apologies, Mr. Seet. I have to take this call,” he said as he answered the call. His face changed immediately after hearing what the person on the other end of the line said.
“W-What did you say?” Rodney demanded.
Per his request, the person on the phone repeated himself, and Rodney felt like his world was about to crumble.
“Wil… Wil… H-How could he…”
“What happened to Wilbur?” Maya asked worriedly as she frowned.
Rodney lifted his head and looked at Maya. “Wilbur j-jumped into the sea!”
Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard that.
“N-No… Wilbur won’t do that! He won’t… There’s no way he’ll love Maya to the extent of ending his own life! There’s no way!” Janice exclaimed as she shook her head in disbelief.
Maya was shocked too. She heard what Janice said and hoped that she was right. Please, don’t let this be true! He needs to be fine!
Mr. Simpson, are you sure the information is reliable?” Davin asked.
“Y-Yes. He jumped into the sea but was saved. However, his condition wasn’t stable, so he was sent to the hospital.”
He’s been saved! This means that Wilbur is still alive!
Maya’s eyes lit up with hope.
