Married a Secret Billionaire Chapter 1768
Daniel's face wore a grim expression, his demeanor exuding an overbearing intensity. He resembled a demon emerging from hell, fixing a cold, sharp gaze upon Camila and Owen. In his eyes, there lurked a lethal blade.“D-Daniel,” she stammered. "D-Don’t misunderstand, I—”"So, it's you," he enunciated sharply. "I knew it. Everything is your doing!"Camila turned pale.Over the past two days, he had conducted a discreet investigation, delving into the individuals responsible for Maisie's past suffering. The results were unsatisfactory, with numerous inexplicable details.Daniel had been meticulously analyzing and reexamining the facts.This lingering mystery had been plaguing him for years. He yearned to identify his daughter's true killer from that fateful day.Starting with a lead suggesting a hooligan's death from drug addiction, he connected the dots to Owen.The subsequent investigations revealed the shocking truth: Owen and Camila were the architects of Maisie's torment."T

"She wants to tell the world…" Even Rachael found it ridiculous. "Wouldn't the Quimbys be humiliated?"Lily sighed. She had stayed with the Quimbys before. Although they were only a nominal couple, she knew the dynamics of the family quite well.Back then, criticisms from the board of directors were abundant when Daniel kept Maisie by his side. Now that Maisie was revealing their past to the world, those individuals would seize the opportunity to make things difficult for him.Perhaps she didn't realize how terrible things could turn out.However, with the potential butterfly effect, a storm might be stirred when it reached Daniel."I'll talk to her," Lily said."What about the PR promo…""It'll proceed as usual," Lily insisted, realizing she couldn't back off now. "She has signed the contract. How can we go back on our promise with the distributor? But keep an eye on her at events. Advise her on what to say and what not to say beforehand, got it?""Okay!"-Soon, Maisie beca

"Absolutely!" Lily affirmed with a nod. "Take my place, for example. It's a bit disorderly because I tend to be scatterbrained. Things are strewn about, creating a semblance of chaos, yet I can pinpoint the location of each item with precision."Then there's Daniel. He leans toward being a neat freak, always eager to showcase his refined taste. He insists on an Eropah-style interior even for his office—talk about going the extra mile."Lily halted suddenly.Maisie smiled but remained silent.Lily swiftly presented a contract, breaking the awkward silence. "I'm here today to present you with this."Maisie flipped it open and discovered it was a contract renewal. Without hesitation, she signed on the last page."Maisie..." Lily appeared touched. "This contract is quite extensive. At least ensure you've perused it before signing. And those profit shares—have you genuinely calculated them?"Maisie looked up at her, smiling sincerely. "Between us, we don't need these things.""Perha

"Lily..."Lily flashed Maisie a gentle smile that conveyed everything without needing to be said."If you require assistance, just let me know. I'll do everything I can!""Thank you," Maisie replied, meeting Lily's sincere gaze."Why thank me? We get along well, and I'm happy to help!"The two shared smiles.Maisie poured a cup of coffee for Lily, and they settled by the floor-to-ceiling window, quietly admiring the distant scenery.Spring had arrived in the city. The mountains in the distance had regained their lush greenery. Cherry blossoms along the streets resembled clusters of pale pink mist and swallows flitted through the willow branches joyfully.Despite the arrival of spring, the frost in Maisie's heart proved resistant to thawing.Lily turned to her, softly asking, "Maisie, are you truly never going to forgive him?"Maisie fell silent, unsure how to respond to such a complex question.Rather than recalling past times with Daniel or the love and hate they shared, wh

Maisie was taken aback. She didn't have the opportunity to respond before another journalist from a different media outlet stood up."We've heard that you had a relationship with Mr. Daniel Quimby. Do you still maintain contact to this day?""There have been sightings of you and Mr. Quimby entering and leaving a hotel. Can you confirm if this is true?"Maisie's heart pounded as she clenched her fists. She glanced at Rachael, who nodded, giving her an affirming look. Lily had anticipated these questions.Before the event, the PR team had prepared the best answers for each question, delicately skirting around the issues and redirecting the conversation toward her next book.Maisie had memorized every word perfectly, but now, she didn't want to say a single word. The official responses weren't what she wanted.Facing these journalists reminded her—were these the same faces from the boardroom pressuring Daniel to resign? Perhaps Daniel's situation was a thousand times more brutal tha

The journalists collectively froze. They exchanged glances, hesitant to utter another word. They had assumed Maisie to be soft and easily intimidated, unaware of her underlying determination.After a few seconds of tense silence, voices suddenly erupted from the crowd of book fans."Yeah! This is her private life! You journalists are prying too much!""Regardless of what Maisie does, we'll support her!""Her words are comforting and powerful. Even if those events were her personal experiences, as fans, we'd only empathize with her!""Exactly! Journalists should stop asking these boring questions!""Organizers! Anyone there? How did you let these kinds of journalists in? We demand they leave!"A commotion ensued in the audience, with journalists wearing uneasy expressions and event organizers struggling to maintain order.Fortunately, it didn't escalate into a major uproar, and the event concluded in a warm and harmonious atmosphere.Maisie left the venue, waiting by the roadsi

"Maisie...""I should indeed forgive myself," Maisie uttered, her gaze averted as if looking at something beyond. "And to do so, I must confront the past."She enunciated each word deliberately. "Daniel, I did love you. It was a love that gave everything, even risking my life."I initially stayed with you because of money... I constantly reminded myself that I didn't mean anything to you and that you would leave me sooner or later. But I couldn't control falling for you."After recalling those things from the past, I also hated you. But I seem to understand something these days—I hated you because I still loved you. Yet, the opposite of love isn't hate. It's forgetting. So... I genuinely intend to forgive myself."Daniel stood in silence.A breeze swept by, causing cherry blossom petals from the tree behind Maisie to drift, landing gently on her hair and shoulders.Although she stood right in front of him, he felt as though they were worlds apart.In the chilly spring, he reali

"What did you tell Daniel, you wretched girl?"Chace struggled to break free from the police and almost lunged toward Camila, his anger echoing like thunder."You orchestrated everything! It has nothing to do with me or your mother! Admit it, or face dire consequences!"Camila met his gaze, observing the fury in his eyes as he portrayed himself like a clown before everyone. He accused her of the crimes, denouncing her as unworthy due to her status as an adopted child and contending that she lacked the Quimbys' supposed good genes.Finally, he exclaimed, "It was all arranged by her! Daniel, believe me! Camila is just an outsider! She incited us to evade taxes, create fake accounts, embezzle public funds... It was all her doing!"Despite her mental preparedness, Camila felt a chill in her heart as her adoptive parents threw her out like a shield before the onlookers.Unable to contain herself, she rushed to grab a document from the table and aimed it at Chace, plunging the meeting

"Only Morpheus and Sephy aren't like that. They respect and understand me. Sephy told me once, 'One's appearance doesn't indicate anything. A clean heart is what truly matters!'"Rebecca chuckled dismissively."You're a psychologist, yet you fail to grasp this," Wynn said coldly. "Actually, I pity you. You could have stepped out, yet you insist on dwelling on the trivialities."Morpheus has psychological barriers, a consequence of returning from the battlefield. No one has cured his PTSD except Sephy... It shows that a true psychologist is never just a title."What truly heals everything is love!"-One particular morning a year later, sunlight streamed through sheer cream curtains onto the floor.Persephone was sound asleep when she suddenly felt something pressing down on her... Then, Morpheus' strong arms wrapped around her slender waist. She drowsily opened her eyes to find him sealing her lips with heated kisses.Over the year, his kissing skills had improved, and Persepho

With Morpheus' involvement, the police didn't slack off and quickly found Rebecca.That day, Rebecca was preparing to escape from a small port. The boat she had found was an illegally operating one.As she was about to board, piercing sirens sounded nearby.The boat owner, enraged upon hearing the sirens, grabbed Rebecca by her hair and pushed her into the water.Rebecca screamed for help, but he roared, "I didn't expect you to be sent by the cops!""I'm not..." Rebecca choked on water. "Sir, let's leave now. Your boat is fast. As long as we reach the open sea, no one will catch you!""Dream on!" The boat owner wanted to strangle her. "Do you not understand? These sirens are from the royal guards! Who did you bitch provoke?"Rebecca was dumbfounded. Being a foreigner, she naturally didn't understand the local affairs in the Southeast Aciatic region.The police and royal guards quickly caught up, armed, and surrounded them.Rebecca turned pale and trembled all over, her gaze gr

"You had no choice on the battlefield."Persephone looked at him with her crystal eyes. There was a magical power in them. Even if a devil was tearing him apart, her eyes would always bring him back to light.She smiled and caressed his cheek. "Though you killed your father, you saved the country.""Do you really… think so?"She nodded. "You're not at fault. He was the one who made a mistake. You were just fulfilling your job as a general to protect the country."But I also understand that he's your father who brought you up, after all. You guys must have had happy days before that happened, right?"Morpheus held his head low in silence."You did well as the protector of the country," she said softly. "But as a son, you can secretly pay homage to him."Persephone held his hand. "Reconcile with your father, Morpheus. You'll also reconcile with yourself by doing that, okay?"He was stunned for a long time and felt a lump in his throat.-Morpheus stayed with Persephone in the

"No way!" Christopher smirked, glancing at Morpheus. "To him, you're his only princess! I just got lucky for the princess carry, thanks to you!""Yeah, at least you're self-aware!" Persephone nodded, rubbing her chin."We've known each other for so long! What kind of person do you think I am?" Christopher laughed. "I can be a bit shameless at times, but..."But upon learning that the one she loved was the unbeatable god of war, he willingly stepped back, offering his blessings with a smile."Okay, okay. You two stop crowding around me!" Christopher waved his hand. "Sephy needs more rest, and I'd like to get some more sleep, too! Once we heal, let's go out and have some fun together!""You're still thinking about fun?" Morpheus' deep voice intervened with a wry smile. "With the factory explosion incident, the royal family is furious and will thoroughly investigate it. Many people will probably be coming to talk to you both in the next few days. After all, you two are the most direc

"Let's get out first!""Hey, wait..." Persephone pointed to the other side.In moments of life and death, it wasn't appropriate to laugh, but Morpheus still chuckled. The young Prince Christopher was sprawled on the floor in a very ridiculous pose, and they almost forgot about him!"Don't worry," Morpheus whispered. "I won't let anything happen to him."He had Persephone cling to his back and then carried Christopher.Christopher was a tall fellow, so it took some effort to carry them both to a safe place.Fire trucks, ambulances, and police cars rushed in. Their sirens pierced the sky, startling a flock of birds.The fire was soon extinguished, and Persephone and Christopher received timely treatment. Luckily, their burns weren't too severe, and even more fortunately, their faces were unharmed.When Christopher woke up, he felt bandages wrapped around his head, and his skin had a burning sensation. His heart sank, and he was almost on the verge of tears."Tell me the truth! A

There was fire everywhere. Flames rushed toward Persephone like menacing dragons. Her consciousness grew increasingly blurred, but the searing pain coursing through her body became clearer. She struggled to get up, the agony almost unbearable.Despite several attempts, it was futile...Something was pinning her feet down, and stones kept falling on her. She couldn't even muster a shout.Many images flashed through her mind in that fleeting moment, each frame featuring Morpheus' face…She remembered the times they had spent together in Flinge, how he had initially distanced himself from her, then later had exerted every effort to protect her. She recalled how he would gently ruffle her hair and call her "silly goose"..."Morpheus, I'm afraid I might have to go first..."The fire grew fiercer, explosions resonated continuously, and she could no longer hold on.Christopher, who was nearby, wasn't any better.Amidst the roaring flames, he couldn't see anything clearly, only pulling

"No need, you can go back first." Morpheus glanced at him. "I'll wait here for her a little longer.""Prince Christopher wouldn't do anything to Ms. Hamerton...""Alfred, what are you thinking?" Morpheus couldn't help but chuckle. "I know exactly what Christopher is like, but I just want to wait here for Sephy. Christopher mentioned that she'd specifically designed these fireworks for me. Hah! I'm the useless one. I don't even dare to go inside and take a look.""Sir, don't say that.""If I wait here, will it count as accompanying her in her efforts?"Alfred nodded.Morpheus smiled and sent Alfred back. He continued waiting under the tree.The air in Southeast Aciatic was hot and humid. The shade of the banyan tree offered some relief, but it couldn't completely dispel the oppressive heat.Morpheus took a deep breath, about to move elsewhere, when he glimpsed a suspicious figure swiftly darting through the factory's side gate.The security at the side gate was lax, making it e

Christopher struggled to swallow the bite of the sandwich in his mouth for what seemed like ages. He gazed at Persephone, his mind wandering back…He didn't just know Morpheus. He had been close since childhood to the children of the two prominent military families in Southeast Aciatic.Compared to the Harrises, he preferred visiting the Ortons, especially when he got to spend time with Morpheus. He considered Morpheus a friend, a brother even, having engaged in countless mischief together, much to their parents' dismay.In his memory, Morpheus was someone who smiled a lot, radiating warmth and brightness like the Southeast Aciatic sun when he did.However, from the moment Kaiden betrayed the country, Morpheus never smiled again, gradually growing distant from Christopher as well.It wasn't until that evening at the gates of the palace that Christopher felt like it had been a lifetime."I... I don't know him." Christopher forced a smile. "Where would I have met your boyfriend!"

Morpheus wasn't just an ordinary person!Christopher wholeheartedly accepted his defeat to Morpheus."Then... I'd like to invite you to come over to my place for a while as a friend. That's fine, right?"-A few days later, Persephone finally ran into Christopher, who had been missing in action for days, in the classroom."Hey, you finally showed up!" She dashed over, plopping down in the seat beside him and handing him breakfast. "You haven't eaten, right? Let's eat together!"Usually, Christopher would readily accept, but he waved his hands now. "No, no, no!""What's wrong?" Persephone widened her eyes. "This breakfast isn't poisoned!"Christopher awkwardly smiled. "You have a boyfriend, so maybe... we should keep some distance."Persephone burst into laughter. Then she remarked, "Strange... Morpheus was right!""Uh, what?""My boyfriend!" She chuckled. "He made this breakfast. I asked if he could also make a portion for you, and he said sure, just worried you wouldn't tak
