Chapter 2039 Suddenly Hit Nicholas
“Mr. Simpson, I really didn’t hit Wilbur.”
“I trust my daughter. She’ll never hit someone.” Walking toward Wilbur and Nicholas, Nicole scrutinized both of them. Her gaze landed on Nicholas as she asked, “Are you saying that you saw Maya hit Wilbur?”
Nicholas fell silent briefly before nodding. “In that case, please come out with Nicholas, Mr. Simpson.” “Why?” asked Nicholas curiously.
“I have something to ask you. Mr. Simpson, please follow us!” Nicole walked out of the living room. Rodney shot a look at Nicholas, and they followed her out.
Standing in the courtyard, Nicole asked Nicholas, “You said you saw Maya hit Wilbur. I’d like to ask you how she hit him. Did she use her left or right hand? Which part of Wilbur’s body did she hit? His back or his arm? Which body part exactly?”
After Nicole asked those questions, Nicholas fell silent and recalled what he said to Wilbur earlier.
If you say that Maya hit you, Dad won’t let you leave with her. Understand? If they ask which body part Maya had hit, say that she pinched your arm and slapped your face. Can you remember that?
Nicholas returned to his senses and repeated what he reminded Wilbur earlier.
A grim look flashed across Nicole’s eyes. She did not expect Nicholas to respond so confidently.
“His left arm or his right arm?” she asked.
“Maya pinched Wilbur’s left arm and slapped his right cheek. She even threatened him to follow her to Imperial Garden.”
Rodney was unhappy to hear that Maya treated his son, who was not in the right state of mind, like that. His expression turned gloomier.
“Mrs. Seet, you heard that too. There’s no excuse for what Maya did to Wilbur, right?”
Nicole could tell that he was implicitly demanding an explanation. However, she would never believe Maya would do that. After all, she knew her daughter’s personality well.
Furthermore, Maya loved Wilbur so much that she would definitely not do anything to hurt him.
“If it’s confirmed Maya really did that, I’ll make her apologize to Wilbur. I’ll apologize to you too.”
“Are you that certain, Mrs. Seet?” Nicholas suddenly asked.
Nicole shot him a glance. Without answering him, she walked into the living room and scrutinized Wilbur.
“Wilbur, what did Maya say to you earlier?”
“She… She told me to go to her house with her.”
“Did she hit you? Which part of your body did she hit?”
Maya stared at Wilbur intently. “You must tell the truth.”
“If you say that, you’re threatening him. He won’t dare to speak anymore!” protested Nicholas.
“Maya, say nothing. Let me ask him.” Nicole turned around and looked at Wilbur. “I know you’re a good kid. Tell us, did Maya hit you? Which part of your body did she hit?”
Wilbur snuck a glance at Maya, who was waiting there anxiously for him to prove her innocence. Then, he scanned everyone in the room. A grim look crossed his eyes, for he knew his answer was extremely important.
It would impact Maya greatly if news spread that she had hit someone who was not in the right state of mind.
Scratching his head, he suddenly reached his arms out and slapped Nicholas twice, catching his brother off guard.
“Are you crazy?” roared Nicholas, about to hit Wilbur back. However, before he could land his blow, Rodney stopped him.
“What are you doing?”
“Dad, he hit me!”
“Are you ill like him?” bellowed Rodney.
Suppressing his fury, Nicholas placed his hand down slowly and glared at Wilbur with bloodshot eyes.
Mabel walked over. Looking at Nicholas’ swollen cheeks, she asked worriedly, “Does it hurt, Nic?”
“I’m fine!” snapped Nicholas through gritted teeth.
Mabel looked at Wilbur, then back at her husband. “Rodney, Wil hit Nic for no reason! He used so much force too. This is outrageous!”
Nicole and Maya were confused too. Why did Wilbur suddenly hit Nicholas? What is he doing?
