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

"What do you have to say for yourself?" Daniel, who was not easy to coax, didn't even turn around. "How many times have I told you? No staying up late! You clearly haven't taken my words seriously, have you?!""Daniel..."Maisie's face nuzzled against his broad back, her voice tender as she spoke. "I was wrong, okay? I won't stay up late again... I just really want to do this well, in case something unexpected happens. I don't want to end up with nothing."Daniel's heart melted instantly. He was only worried about her, so he did not blame her. Upon hearing her say this, he quickly turned around. Seeing her standing barefoot on the floor, he scooped her up like a princess and gently placed her on the sofa.His gaze showed a hint of helplessness as he smiled, sitting beside her."I know you want to do well." He held her hand. "But your health is more important, right?"Maisie nodded quickly."If you continue to neglect your health and stay up every night, then I'll have to move in

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

The next day, when Maisie arrived at the publishing company and handed over the revised manuscript to Camila, she felt a bit uneasy.Camila glanced at it and praised her. "Much better than last time. Keep it up!""Really?" Maisie widened her eyes in disbelief.Lately, the constant revisions had left her mentally exhausted, and the repeated rejections had significantly undermined her confidence. Camila saying it was better this time was almost unbelievable."R-Really?" She was still skeptical. "You think it's fine?""There are still some minor details to polish." Camila smiled and showed her a few books on the computer, all of them regulars on the bestseller lists."These are authors I helped promote when I was an editor," Camila explained, looking at her. "They were once unknown but later became very successful, so you need to trust my judgment. I can sense market trends, heh. Follow my revision suggestions and it'll be fine!""Okay.""But..." Camila furrowed her brows with a w

"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

"She's not in a critical condition at present, but her emotions can't fluctuate anymore. Otherwise, the baby won't be able to hold on."Maisie nodded, leaning against the wall as if she had released a breath she didn't know she was holding.After the doctor got the girl settled in, she entered the hospital room. There, she saw the girl lying on the bed, pale and thin, with only her belly protruding prominently.Maisie's heart clenched, and she walked slowly toward the bed.The girl opened her eyes, a grateful look in her mournful gaze. "I heard from the nurse that... a kind person brought me to the hospital and even paid my hospitalization fees. It was you, right?"Maisie pursed her lips, her eyes a bit teary as she sat by the bedside, looking at the girl."Thank you," the girl said solemnly, tears suddenly streaming down her face.Maisie hurriedly pulled out some tissues to wipe her tears. "Don't be so sad. You're still young. You can start anew.""It's impossible." The girl s

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

Lily was stunned for a while. She realized that, despite her years of being assertive and dominant, she had encountered a tough nut."Racheal!" She dialed the internal line. "Hurry on over!""What's wrong, Boss?""Whatever it takes, get the latest revised version of Maisie's manuscript from Camila's computer!""Well... Does Ms. Squire not have it?" Racheal was confused."I strongly suspect the versions are different. Otherwise, why wouldn't she give the manuscript to me?"…In the past few days, Maisie had been resting at the hotel. Daniel tried to spend time with her, but due to numerous corporate affairs, he couldn't be by her side 24 hours a day.Maisie didn't know what was happening herself. Since rescuing that pregnant woman, she had been restless. She sometimes suffered from intense headaches, and her mental state had plummeted.On that particular day, Daniel had initially planned to take her out for a walk. However, an impromptu important meeting came up, forcing him to

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

Camila pushed open the courtyard gate, and the house did seem like it had been vacant for a long time. However, the yard was clean, indicating that regular maintenance had been taking place.Yet, as Maisie stepped inside, she suddenly felt a chill. She shivered and stopped in her tracks."What's wrong?" Camila turned to look at her, smiling. "Oh, this place happens to be a wind tunnel. There's a mountain breeze here. Let's go inside and it'll be fine!"Maisie nodded, but the further she went, the more familiar these surroundings seemed...The Eropah-style pastoral courtyard was adorned with beautiful orchids. Behind the house was a mountain, and the quietness allowed the sound of the wind rustling through the leaves to be heard.The furniture in the house had a vintage feel to it and exuded luxury.Breathing became difficult for Maisie, and her temples throbbed. She recalled that strange dream more vividly now.It felt increasingly like she had stepped into that dream..."Ah—"
