Chapter 2060 Deal With It Together
Jeremy and Jensen of the Hidden Masters were keeping tabs on Mabel from not too far behind. Upon hearing her words, Jeremy could not help but lean closer to Jensen. âWhat is that b*tch trying to do? Probably trying to cause trouble, huh?â
âSince Darius and Damien had gone to protect Ms. Maya and Wilbur, letâs take this chance to give that woman a difficult time.â
âSounds like a plan to me. Itâs the perfect opportunity to teach her the meaning of karma.â Putting away her phone, Mabel went to chase after Maya and Wilbur.
As soon as Maya and Wilbur headed into the acrobatic performance venue, the latter began observing the environment. Among the chaotic crowd, he spotted a familiar silhouette somewhere nearby.
It was Nicholasâ trusted aide. He was talking to the animal tamer.
Even though that man had never appeared in the company before, Wilbur had found that Nicholas had entrusted the former to negotiate shady businesses in place for him.
The fact that heâs here shows that something is amiss.
Sensing the danger drifting in the air, Wilbur glanced at Mayaâs tightly wrapped arms around his and said, âNo matter what you see later, donât let go of me.â
Maya glued her gaze to the performance on stage. Thinking that he was purely frightened, she answered, âFret not. Iâll stick by your side.â
As soon as her words rang out, a monkey jumped off the stage, approached Wilbur, and passed him a flower wreath.
Puzzlement consumed Wilbur. Could there be something wrong with this floral wreath?
On the other hand, Maya thought that it was an adorable behavior of the monkey. Seeing Wilburâs lack of reaction, she reached out her hand to receive it, but he took action before she could, then threw the wreath on the floor.
The monkey appeared surprised as it scratched its ears while staring at them. A glint of viciousness flashed across its eyes, seemingly ready to launch an attack.
Wilbur shoved Maya behind him to protect her. Donât tell me they are making a strike with a monkey? Isnât this move a little too weak?
In the next moment, the animal tamer hurried toward Maya and Wilburâs direction and apologized, âIâm sorry for causing any shock to the two of you. The monkey mustâve given you the flower wreath because of how attractive you two are. Before the performance begins earlier, Iâve explained that the recipient of the flower wreath will be able to participate in the upcoming magic show. I really hope you guys will gladly join us!â
âWhat magic show? Is there such a thing? We have no idea since we just came in,â Maya asked, surprised.
The animal tamer explained, âYes, Iâve mentioned it earlier. Everyone here heard me well. If you donât believe my words, feel free to ask any one of them.â
At this point, several people in the crowd quickly acknowledged the manâs words. In truth, it was a rigged action.
âYes, he said that earlier.â
âYes, whoever gets the flower wreath will be able to participate in the next segmentâs magic show.â
âYou two are so lucky. Weâll wait for you guys to share with us your experiences after joining.â
âHead up to the stage now.â
âIndeed. Weâre all waiting to watch the show. Hurry!â
âExactly. Donât be such a spoilsport!â
It was out of Mayaâs expectation that such an incident would occur. She lifted her gaze to look at Wilbur, who leaned close to her ear and whispered, âThere are too many people here. With how excited they looked, Iâm afraid we canât get out of here without participating.â
âSo you want us to join?â
âIâll join by myself! Just say that youâre scared and want to leave this place. Go outside, find a safe spot, and wait for me.â
Maya sized Wilbur up. At that moment, she suddenly saw how Wilbur was no longer an idiot.
Tightening her grip on Wilburâs arm, she rejected, âI donât want to! You said it yourself. You told me not to let go of your arm no matter what happens.â
âThatâs just now; itâs no longer the same case now.â
âNo matter when is it, I donât want to leave you.â
Right then, Wilbur noticed that Nicholasâ aide was among the crowd and watching them closely. Mabel wants to deal with Maya and me. If I get Maya to leave first, she might possibly run into danger outside. Forget about it; letâs deal with it together!
