"She ran away?" Philip immediately turned to Hendrick and questioned him, "That's right, wasn't it your responsibility to watch over her? How did she manage to escape?"Hendrick lowered his head and said, "She was behind me when boarding the plane. But when I turned around the next moment, she was g
Maisie's eyes flickered. Someone was after Juliette? She probably hadn't informed Sebastian that she had come to the capital on her own. Now, it's likely that he had come after her. Since Juliette wasn't familiar with the capital, her first thought must have been to look for Maisie. Naturally, Seba
Scenes from TV dramas flashed in Maisie's mind. She was also reminded of the assassins disguised as bodyguards that she met when she was in Atna City. Her heart pounded in her ears. As the shadow continued to approach her, her heart raced. She quickly reached for the gun in the cabinet. As the per

Maisie clasped her forehead and frantically buttoned up her shirt. She glanced at the time and asked, "It's already 7:30 a.m. Won't you be in a rush to get back?" After all, Andrew needed to go abroad. Even with his private jet, the trip would take around three hours."No worries. I'll stay and hav
Philip's lips quivered as he gazed at Sapphire. He didn't know what to say. Eventually, he left the ward, wiping away his tears as he did so.Sapphire slowly lifted her head and gazed at the clock. "It's almost time," she murmured.…At the coffee shop, Maisi and Fiona stepped out of the car as it p
"Ms. Bardot, today's smooth progress is probably all thanks to Mr. Clarke. He likely helped you behind the scenes," Fiona reminded in a subdued voice.Maisie turned around. "I know. What are you trying to say?"Fiona pursed her lips and added, "Let's be honest. You only secured the collaboration bec
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

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
