Chapter 1966 Wilbur Arrives

“Do you think I won’t know whether I’m feeling comfortable? I think your attitude is problematic. Just do as I ask! Go make some oatmeal!”

The caretaker looked up at Maya. Maya was the one who hired her, so she only took instructions from her. “Go ahead.” The caretaker left with Maya’s permission.

Janice continued to have Maya massaging her legs. For the entire afternoon, Janice would have the caretaker do some menial tasks, so Maya was the one to care for her in the end.

She asked Maya to heat a glass of milk once the latter was done massaging her legs. Then, she had Maya massage her shoulder. She kept Maya busy the entire afternoon, not letting the latter catch a breath.

Wilbur and Nicholas suddenly dropped by when Maya was massaging Janice’s shoulders. Wilbur frowned at the sight. “Maya, what are you doing?”

Janice replied, “Maya was worried about me feeling tired from lying down all the time, so she’s giving me a massage. Are you tired, Maya? Leave this to the caretaker next time.”

“Caretaker? Have you hired one? Why don’t I see her?” Nicholas’ gaze swept the room.

“Yeah, Maya has hired one. I just sent her off to buy me something. She should be back soon. Maya and Mabel can catch a break with a caretaker around.”

Maya cast Janice a glance. I don’t see the difference with or without one. The entire afternoon, Janice had the caretaker do some unnecessary chores. I was the one taking care of her the whole time.

“Since she already has a caretaker, Mom, you can go back tonight. Let Maya and the caretaker stay here and take care of Janice.” Nicholas was worried Mabel wouldn’t rest well in the hospital.

Wilbur was worried about Maya too. “Maya, you go home too. It’s enough with the caretaker here. There’s no need for everyone to crowd the room.”

Janice immediately felt wronged. The rim of her eyes began to redden.

“Leave. All of you can just leave! No one needs to care about me. Let me die here all alone by myself. I can reunite with my baby faster this way.”

Mabel instantly understood her intention.

“We’re not leaving. Janice needs someone to take care of her right now. We’re staying here to keep her company as well. A mother losing her baby is a very traumatic experience, so we should care for her more.”

She turned to Maya. I want to stay here and continue watching Janice order Maya around. What else will she ask Maya to do? I want to see how Janice plans to split up Maya and Wilbur.

Maya understood Mabel’s intention. The reason the latter had mentioned the baby was to get her to stay.

Before she could say anything, Nicholas brought up the baby again.

He turned to her and asked, “Can you stay back to keep Janice company? Seeing as she lost the baby to save you. I heard Mr. and Mrs. Seet were planning to build an orphanage. The daughter of such kind parents must be kind too.”

Maya merely nodded in silence.

“I’ll stay with you,” Wilbur suggested.

“I’m fine. It’s not convenient for you to stay here.”

“That’s right, Wilbur. Where are you planning to sleep if you stay here? The girls will have no place to rest,” Nicholas objected.

Janice wished Wilbur would stay, yet before she could speak up, Maya urged him to go back.

She told him they were enough to care for Janice, and a guy would only be a bother to have around.

Wilbur agreed after mulling over her words.

Janice rolled her eyes at Maya. Just you wait till Wilbur leaves! I’m going to order you around like a maid.

“Let’s go have dinner. I’ll send you back here later,” Wilbur said after a glance at his watch.

Maya nodded. “Okay.”

While the two went out for dinner, Nicholas, Janice, and Mabel were discussing their plan in the room.

“Janice, you’ve already ordered Maya around like a maid. What are you planning to do next?”

“Yeah. What plan do you have in mind to destroy her relationship with my brother?”
