Chapter 1716 Let The Kids Solve Their Own Problems
âMaya, have you ever thought that maybe he has his own reasons? There could be something more than meets the eyes.â
Reason? More than meets the eye?
Busting out laughing, Maya retorted, âHow can there be another reason for his doings? If thereâs really more to it, then he could have explained!â
Glancing at the serious Maya, Nina stated, âMaybe itâs something he canât explain. I think he wouldâve done so if he could.â
Maya was baffled by the other womanâs words but still refuted, âI donât think so! All those times when he used to treat me well were a lie! Heâs a jerk! Donât bring him up in front of me ever again, Nina, and donât mention any other guys.â
âDonât mention any other guys? Isnât your future husband a guy too? Donât tell me youâre planning to get married to a girl?â
âI wonât have a husband! I can live my life well on my own! Thereâs no way Iâm going to look for another headache.â
Nina frowned at her firm declaration. I thought Maya had overcome her fear of marriage, but it looks itâs back. Wilbur, are you Mayaâs angel or devil? Her fear of marriage seems to have gotten worse after your incident. No! As Mayaâs sister, I canât just let her be. I have to find out what went down between Wilbur and that woman.
Meanwhile, in the bedroom upstairs, Nicole was asking Evan, who had just gotten out of the shower, about Wilbur.
âDid Wilbur explain to you about his relationship with that pregnant woman when he went to meet you at the office today?â
After drying his hair, Evan set the towel aside and took a seat across from Nicole. âLet the kids settle their own problems, Nicole.â
What does he mean by that?
âWill Maya continue dating Wilbur, then? I notice sheâs in a bad mood these days, but she keeps putting on a brave front. Even though she keeps her smiling face in front of others, I know sheâs upset inside. Itâs plain to see she has feelings for Wilbur.â
âNicole, Wilburâs matter is related to the Simpson family, so itâs best if we donât get involved. As for Maya and Wilbur, letâs just go with the flow.â
Upon hearing that, Nicole was surprised. I didnât know Wilburâs matter was related to the Simpson family. If thatâs the case, then that womanâs background and motive are not as simple as it looks. I heard that the relationship within the Simpson family is complicated and messy. Can my innocent Maya win against that kind of cunning woman? Maybe she doesnât suit the conniving Simpson family. Evan is right. Letâs just go with the flow.
âNicole, let the kids settle their own problems. Youâre busy enough as it is with Bernian Hospitalâs affairs. Donât worry about them.â
Nicole smiled and nodded.
Then, as if recalling something, she turned to Evan somberly. âTwo patients with strange cases had been admitted today.â
âHuh? How strange?â
âI have never seen the symptoms theyâre presenting before. Their body temperature kept fluctuating. One minute they were sweating bullets, then they would be shivering the next. If I havenât seen it with my own two eyes, I wouldnât have believed it.â
Evan was stunned at her description. It was a first for him as well to encounter such strange symptoms.
âDo you have the confidence to treat them?â
Nicole shook her head after pondering for a while.
âIt was my first time, too. Their frantic pulses indicate they have been poisoned, but they insisted they didnât consume anything poisonous. Other than their fluttering body temperature, they donât show any other symptoms. I have no idea where to start, but I have contacted Wesley for help. Maybe heâll know since heâs knowledgeable.â
âNicole, just try your best. If you canât help them, refer them to other highly skilled doctors.â
