Maisie's eyes widened. She had caught the subtle resistance in Fiona's eyes and her stiff expression. Indeed, Maisie needed a capable and experienced assistant. The fact that Fiona had worked for Andrew for as long as Igor had was enough to prove how capable she was.But Maisie could tell Fiona was
"I don't want that. You may be capable of providing me with a good life, Mr. Clarke, but I don't want to be dependent on you. I need to have a career of my own." Maisie's eyes sparkled as she spoke.Andrew leaned over to nuzzle her cheek tenderly. "Alright, then.""I'm gonna go now." Maisie stood up
"Bye." Maisie left.Fiona remained rooted to the spot as she watched Maisie leave. Her gaze was almost devoid of emotion. A passing employee recognized her and came over to greet her. "You're back, Fiona!"Fiona smiled politely. "Yeah.""It's been ages since I last saw you. You're the only female as
Hendrick glanced at Sapphire but didn't reject Philip. "Okay."Philip felt much better after making the necessary arrangements. He looked at Sapphire and said, "Don't worry, Sapphi. The hospital's searching for a suitable bone marrow donor for you, so don't give up. There has to be hope."Sapphire k
Otherwise, he wouldn't have known she purchased gasoline. Hendrick lowered his gaze and smiled, yet his eyes were devoid of any emotion.Sapphire clenched her hands and asked, "Why were you monitoring me?""Monitoring you? I'm not as free as you think I am, you know? Just happened to notice. That's
Giselle tightened her grip on the doorknob. She wasn't afraid of being discovered.Just as she was about to push the door open, the voice inside continued speaking. "Trash! You can't even handle such a simple matter. What use are you to me?"Giselle furrowed her brow. Following the outburst was a lo
Maisie's expression turned cold as she asked, "Which eye of yours saw me bothering her?""Hey, you old hoot, don't falsely accuse people," Giselle confronted Philip.Sapphire quickly interrupted the exchange, "No, Grandpa, Maisie didn't bother me. I accidentally dropped the glass. Don't blame her."
Maisie's expression softened a bit. "Were you out with Andrew tonight?"Fiona explained calmly, "Yes, I'm still in the process of handing over my work. It happened that Mr. Clarke had a meeting tonight with the project's client. Since I have negotiated with them before, I decided to join in."Maisie
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
