479 Baby Shower party (2)
“Right. She even chatted with me some days ago and didn’t tell me about her baby shower. Still so dull.
Tsk. Tsk. Tsk.” Emma rolled her eyes, albeit playfully. They’ve witnessed Jeslyn’s feat and understood
she was nothing near a dull person. But what other way to bully her? (1)
Their bullying took Jeslyn’s mind back to her days at Rose City. When these two ladies were warning
her about Ray, they’d act like this.
Although the way they spoke to her didn’t hurt her, even though they were strangers to her, Christine
would make a big deal out of it until she reacted angrily.
But after getting to know the two ladies well, she got to see them for who they really were. They are
those friends who would speak to you in a sarcastic manner but are extremely loyal and honest. Once
they made you a friend, they’d walk with you through thick and thin.
Jeslyn sighed and sat down. “Do you believe I wouldn’t invite you two if I had any idea that the party
would be this big? I thought it was a small thing for my family. I mean, look at every one. They look like
people going to the beach, but with a little touch of extravagance.”
“Hahaha… This girl is crazy. What a perfect way to describe your baby shower!” Emma couldn’t help
herself from laughing out loud.
“Hello, everyone! May I get your attention, please?” Piper’s voice boomed.
The people slowly turned to focus on her.
“Everyone, gather around. Time to reveal the baby’s gender, then cut the cake!”
Jeslyn looked dazedly at Piper. She felt the urge to pounce on her. Gender reveal? In front of the
antagonist, Valen?
Searching for him with her eyes, she saw the child holding Pink’s wheelchair. He was also looking at
her. Then a smile stretched across his face.
“Should I come?” he asked.
Jeslyn started weeping in her heart, but her face had a crooked beam. “Yes, son.” 1
She froze. That wasn’t what she wanted to say. But she can’t take back her words, right?
The happy child strode to her side and held her hand before walking her to the table where the cake
was.
Maverick, who had been ‘entertaining‘ the men, joined his wife and son on the table.
Kimberly brought two confetti cannons. One for Maverick, the other for Jeslyn. However Valen was
looking at it with interest, so Maverick handed his own to him.
“For a first–timer, you should be careful,” he said.
“Then teach me how to.” The child was excited that’d be the one to reveal his sibling’s gender with his
mother.
Maverick unwrapped the cannon and taught him how to twist the bottom.
“I get it. Thank you.”
Maverick was taken aback by his appreciation. Has his nemesis ever thanked him for anything? This
was the first.
Maverick moved to stand behind Jeslyn. He held her cannon with her as they got ready to pop the
confetti.
Seeing this, Valen glared at his father and instantly regretted showing appreciation.
“Are you ready? The baby’s gender will be revealed in 3…2…1…”
“Puff!”
“Yeey! It’s a girl!!”
Everyone exclaimed in excitement, except Valen who was still staring at the pink confetti that was flying
everywhere. Finally, it dawned on him and he looked at his shirt- pink. 1
“A girl?” he frowned.
Jeslyn sighed, “your daddy put her there. What can I do? I wanted a boy, just like you.” Jeslyn
immediately shifted the blame to Maverick.
“Of course, only he would do such a thing,” Valen sneered.
“When you get yourself a wife, I hope you’ll be able to give her only males,” Maverick retorted.
“Who said I wouldn’t want girls as daughters?” the child harrumphed and walked away. He just realized
he said the wrong thing.
Maverick tapped his wife’s nose, “your son is a hypocrite.”
“Who did he take after?” she raised a brow as she wrapped her hands around his waist.
“You, of course,” he responded, his lips tugging into a smile, impatiently waiting for her outburst.
Jeslyn didn’t disappoint because the next second, her smile fell. “You said what?”
“That you’re beautiful –”
“No, you called me a hypocrite.”
“Hehe,” Maverick chuckled, lowered his head and immediately sealed her lips. If he didn’t, she’d go on
and on until Valen get involved.
They want a peaceful party, right?
Although the guests didn’t hear what they were saying, they could see the body language and
reactions, which were simply too cute.
Pink was sitting in her wheelchair, smiling as she looked at her daughter and her small family when she
spotted a familiar back. The lady looked back at her and started walking deeper into the garden.
Everything about her looked mysterious and from the way she was walking and looking back at her,
Pink knew the lady was trying to get her attention, so she pressed a button on her chair and started
heading in that direction.
Pink stopped when she couldn’t see anyone or hear the cheers from guests anymore. Looking around
her, she could only see pruned shrubs everywhere.
Ah, she’s inside a shrub maze, she thought.
“Who are you? Show yourself!”
A moment later, a figure walked out and stood at the only entrance. The lady was a stranger to her and
this wasn’t the back she saw earlier.
“Who are you?!”
“Long time, no see, Alex,” a voice drifted over before Diana walked in.
“Diana? What- how did you get in?” Pink frowned.
“It seems I’m not welcome here too.”
“No, that’s not the case. I thought you were dead. I mean, everyone from the sisterhood is dead. How
did you survive? And again, your face is everywhere.”
Diana started walking towards her, closing the distance between them.
“That bitch sent my team and I to die in the hands of Nancy. Fortunately, Nancy wasn’t interested in
killing us, so she kept us hostage until a while ago when her son set us free.”
Pink took a deep breath. “That’s a relief. I’m glad you’re alive.”
Diana squatted in front of Pink and knocked on her knees. “I heard what happened to your legs. Any
remedy yet?”
