Married a Secret Billionaire

Chapter 1743

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... This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

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 literature. But I know

Maisie has revised it many times, and this is the second time I've found her up so late to do so!"

"Oh..." Lily pondered this. "Well, despite all those revisions, her manuscript still didn't pass."

"Why?"

"When it comes to such professional matters, I don't have the final say," Lily admitted. "After all, Camila is Maisie's

editor, and her opinion carries a lot of weight. But personally, I don't think there's a big issue with Maisie's book. I've

said it before, it won't top the bestseller list, but it has a good chance of gathering a small group of die- hard fans!"

"So... does she need to keep making changes?"

Lily sighed. "This is why I called you. The issue is, how well do you know your cousin? She's worked for several

publishing companies before and she has some achievements under her belt. Was her work style always like this?

Was she always so... obsessed with perfection and satisfaction?

"Daniel, if that's the case, we might fall behind schedule. I've already contacted various channels and set a

publishing date. We're just waiting for this book to be released!"

Daniel contemplated it.

Lily had left him in a state of doubt. Although Camila was his cousin, he had never paid attention to this particular

family member. Or rather, Camila had no noteworthy characteristics in the Quimby family.

She had an innocent appearance and she was usually reserved. At family gatherings, while other younger relatives

sought favor with the elders, she'd always kept her distance.

What kind of ulterior motive could a person like her possibly have?

Yet, it was precisely people like her who gave Daniel an indescribable sense of unease.

He involuntarily recalled that one time when Camila had taken the initiative to mention the encounter between her

and Owen... Had she really been "honest"?

Daniel narrowed his eyes. After hanging up on Lily, he called his assistant.

"Mr. Quimby, any instructions for me?"

"Last time I asked you to keep an eye on Owen. Any progress?"

His assistant pondered the question for a moment. "There's been nothing so far. He's been quite well- behaved

lately. Just the usual gambling and drinking. Nothing out of the ordinary."

"Did he meet Camila?"

"Only once."

Daniel nodded, his voice deep. "Add a couple more people and continue to watch them."

"Mr. Quimby, is there something up with Owen that we haven't noticed?"

"He might not be the one with the issue, but Camila." However, without concrete evidence, Daniel couldn't jump to

conclusions. "Just do as I say. If there's any news, inform me immediately!"
