Andrew's face darkened. "I said what I meant.""The Collins and the Clarkes had been working together for several years. Now, you're terminating the collaborations over a woman? You've gone mad."Andrew's eyes narrowed with intensity."Your granddaughter harmed my daughter. If you Collins fail to e
"I came to resolve some issues. I'm grateful for everything you've done for me and the children. But if certain things aren't clarified, others might mistake it for our fault."Maisie shifted her gaze to Chester and Eleanor, she smiled and asked, "Mr. Collins Senior?"Chester's complexion appeared d
"Grandpa, what did you just say?"The cooperation between the Collins and the Clarkes has lasted for more than a decade. If it is now canceled, it will certainly be a huge loss for the Collins.Despite the Collins' considerable influence and stature, they couldn't bear such a significant loss.Someo
"Come on, Andrew. Our son is five. How old are you? "Arguing with a child? Just look at yourself." Maisie lifted Junie in her arms. "Junie, let's go grocery shopping with Mommy. I'll cook something delicious for you tonight. Let them argue."Junie chuckled and nodded."I want to go too." El brok
The four of them returned to the apartment and Maisie promptly placed the groceries in the kitchen. Since it was Olivia's day off, she wasn't around. Maisie then asked Andrew to look after El and Junie while she proceeded to wash the vegetables and prepare the dishes.Andrew instinctively lifted th
"Dinner time."Maisie prepared several dishes and soups with diverse flavors and ingredients. Each of them was artfully presented on the plates, making the food look especially appealing. She placed the dishes on the table with satisfaction as a sweet smile adorned her face, revealing her pleasant
Maisie scowled, locking eyes with him. She was caught off guard by the unexpected and probing question.Andrew was the person she deeply loved. Jonathan was her savior, someone she held as dear as a family. Maisie couldn't bear the thought of either of them dying." I won't choose.""Choose.""Why?

After leaving the Garrison residence, Andrew and Maisie headed home. Maisie couldn't help but smirk when she noticed Andrew trailing behind her with a mournful expression. She turned to him and asked, "What's wrong with you?""Are you angry?" Andrew inquired. Suppressing a smile, Maisie responded,
Maisie pressed her lips together and added, "Indeed, Mr. Garrison, we've caused enough trouble for your family. We'll take our leave now." With apologies off the table and Andrew's attendance at the event with Rose out of the question, further negotiation was now futile. Maisie did not attempt to p
"Shut up," Edmund muttered, wondering how he ended up with such a foolish daughter.Although Hendrick and Maisie were both vying for the shares, Maisie seemed to have the upper hand. Selling the shares to her now could earn them some goodwill from Andrew in the future. But Rose wasn't considering an
Valerie couldn't help but notice her daughter's infatuation and sighed inwardly. "Have you forgotten he's already married?""What's the big deal?" Rose shrugged.Valerie gently tapped Rose's forehead and said firmly, "Rose, let's be realistic here. It's fine to have feelings for someone, but he's al
Sapphire stood frozen at the doorway, covering her mouth in shock. She realized that she had been caught red-handed. She feared Hendrick's wrath if he discovered the shares were in her possession.Sapphire's eyes darted around anxiously. All she could think of was to hide until the shareholder meeti
Wrapped in a sleek black coat, Andrew approached, exuding a dignified and icy demeanor. A faint smile graced his handsome face as he held his phone to his ear, staring at her. Maisie was momentarily taken aback and blinked in surprise. "Andrew, is that really you?" His presence caught her off guar
Maisie looked at Sapphire, who was flaunting her dominance, and simply pursed her lips. "Oh," she replied calmly, not wanting to engage further.However, Sapphire persisted. She tried to stop Maisie. "You won't find any useful information here with Grandma. Just a friendly reminder to save your ene
"Get out." Andrew's voice was cold and unforgiving."Sir, what did I do wrong?" Fiona pleaded for an answer, but Andrew merely shot her a cold glance, unwilling to entertain further discussion.Fiona wasn't ready to let it go. She couldn't simply accept being dismissed. After all, she had compromise
Maisie returned to the villa with Elio and June and left James to keep them company at home. Initially, James objected. Andrew had instructed him to protect Maisie, and he feared for her safety if she ventured out alone. However, Maisie insisted, and she eventually departed with Gilman and the othe
