Semua Bab Married a Secret Billionaire: Bab 1741 - Bab 1750

Maisie collected herself, remaining silent for a while. The kindness Daniel had shown her, her acquaintance with Lily, and what kind of person Lily really was—she had a clear picture of it all.She smiled, looking at Camila with a glint of pureness and determination in her eyes. "You're overthinking. I'm not reading too much into it.""Oh, that's good!" Camila smiled. "I was worried... that you might mind Daniel's past with Ms. Reyes, so...""What's there to mind?" Maisie enunciated each word. "They didn't really have a past!""What?" Camila, who was taken aback, forced a smile. "Well... you really don't know? They...""They were married before, but they separated right afterward. They just got married for the sake of family interests." Maisie spoke nonchalantly. "They were married in name only. It was not like you said."“Hah, Daniel told you this?" Camila composed herself and took another sip of water. "Do you believe him?""Why wouldn't I?" Maisie chuckled. "He's told me ever

Lily considered it for a moment and honestly told him, "Your little rabbit's manuscript didn't pass again. It needs further revisions.""I know." Daniel's voice was low. "So, what exactly are your standards for publishing books? Also, I came across a... strange passage. I don't understand what's going on."Lily didn't know what he meant by that. As a boss, she couldn't read every book cover to cover. Sometimes, she only sampled a small portion, moving on to the next stage if everything seemed fine."What passage?" she asked in confusion. "No one has informed me! Have you read her manuscript? Do you find it strange too?""I..." Daniel hesitated. After all, that part of the past was a wound for Maisie and a scar he found hard to heal.Although Lily was aware of Maisie's troubled history, she wasn't familiar with the specific details. Daniel didn't want to make things too clear to her."Never mind," he said in a low voice. "Maybe I lack artistic appreciation and can't understand lit

"Some people are just so lucky!" Someone sighed. "So young and already someone's in-law. If you ask me, we should all find a wealthy old man!""Haha, can you find one? If you can, you won't have to keep suffering here by revising manuscripts!""Hahaha..."Maisie pushed her coffee aside and quickly got up to leave.Stepping out of the coffee shop, she took a deep breath, feeling as if a large stone was stuck in her heart. She began to doubt whether she should have entered this line of work. If she were still in Centrolis, back in that kindergarten, perhaps life would be much more comfortable...Maisie shook her head, quickly dispelling these cowardly thoughts. Coming to Cumulus City was a decision she had made with Daniel. Besides, who could expect everything to go smoothly? If she retreated at the first setback, not only would she look down on herself, but Daniel might also lose faith in her.Maisie forced a smile to encourage herself.At that moment, a shout suddenly echoed. "Q

A car of the Quimby family?Daniel froze. "Whose?""Judging from the license plate, it seems to be... from your second uncle's household.""What?"Daniel frowned. His second uncle's family had always kept to themselves, never meddling in any family or group matters. They simply enjoyed the benefits of the Quimbys without questioning anything.So why would his car appear at the hospital?Daniel, who was puzzled, could only instruct his subordinates to keep a close eye on it.Maisie slept extremely restlessly, plagued by one strange dream after another. In her dreams, she returned to that small vintage house and heard the cries of a baby upstairs...She woke up with a start, drenched in sweat, her pillow already wet.Concerned about her health, Daniel informed Lily, asking her to let Maisie rest for a few more days. Lily, who understood, adjusted the contract terms and extended Maisie's submission deadline.Despite making that change, she was puzzled. Why would Maisie suddenly

Camila gave Maisie an address, and Maisie followed her directions to a storefront on a street. Camila's car was parked on the side of the road, and she waved at Maisie with a smile."This car looks pretty average, but its performance is excellent!" Camila grinned sheepishly. "Um... this was the first car I bought with my own savings. I've had it for a long time and I'm quite attached to it."Maisie was surprised. She hadn't expected Camila, given her background, to save money on her own."You'll understand later. I'm not well-regarded in the Quimby family..." Camila's expression turned somber, but she still made an effort to smile at Maisie. "I'm really happy to be friends with you and work with you. Maisie, you don't look down on me because I'm not valued in the Quimby family, right?"Maisie's heart clenched. She vaguely remembered Daniel mentioning once that Camila wasn't his fourth uncle's biological daughter. She had been adopted to serve as a placeholder, but after Daniel's fo
