Chapter 1760
Daniel's voice quivered. "E-Even if she goes crazy for a lifetime, I'll take care of her!"
"Daniel, don't be naive." Linda bit down on each word, her intensity palpable. "Leaving aside whether you can
accompany her for a lifetime... even if you can, it's a fact that one gets tired of taking care of their parents, let
alone a woman you once wanted to abandon!"
Daniel maintained his silence, but his clenched fists betrayed his inner turmoil.
"Daniel, just let her go, and let yourself go, too. Both of you need to start anew. Let her forget everything and
embrace a brand-new life. Isn't that better?
"For her, you're an abyss. If you truly love her, you should place her in the sunlight instead of letting her sink into
your world... The doctor said that if she continues like this, she won't hold up both mentally and physically! Do you
really want to see her die?"
-
Daniel leaned on the balcony railing. His temples throbbed, and he felt a choking sensation as if he wanted to cry.
He took a deep breath, but his thoughts remained a mess. It was then he received a call from his subordinate.
"Mr. Quimby."
"What's the matter?"
"It's confirmed... The couple attacked at the train station was Yvette and her husband. Do you... still, remember
Yvette? She's the pregnant woman that Ms. Squire saved on the roadside that day, and her husband is responsible
for maintaining the Quimby vehicles."
Daniel pinched between his brows. "And then?"
"The police arrested those hooligans. They quickly confessed. It was for revenge against society and to seek
excitement. This attack was random with no specific target."
"That's impossible!" Daniel spat.
"Don't let the police close the case yet," he said in a deep voice. "I'll find new evidence!"
His subordinate agreed and hung up.
Soon after, Lily's call came in.
"Sorry." Daniel's voice was somewhat hoarse. "I'm not in the mood to discuss the issue of the book with you now..."
"I'm sorry, too." Lily's tone brooked no dissent. "You must now sort out your emotions and discuss Maisie's book with
me!"
"What's wrong again?"
"I had Rachael find a way to get the manuscript of Maisie's book from Camila's computer. After comparing it with Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
Maisie's initial draft, I found that many passages describing the female protagonist in this book are inconsistent with
the outline Maisie submitted initially!"
Daniel frowned. "What do you mean?"
"For example, there's a passage in the book where the female protagonist has a miscarriage, and her mental state
becomes abnormal... Hah! Maisie's writing is warm, and she writes about sweet moments in love. How could there
be such a plot?
"I asked several other editors, and they said Camila had Maisie revise the manuscript over and over again, and she
had to change it according to Camila's requirements. Camila even claimed she understood the market and knew
how to write to attract readers.
"Daniel, I've already read the entire book. If it's published like this, it's equivalent to exposing your affairs with your
little bunny to the world!"
Daniel remained silent, and his hand holding the phone squeezed until his knuckles turned white.
Lily concluded, "So, I suspect these plot points are all Camila's idea. She's constantly provoking Maisie to make her
remember everything."
"That's right." Daniel gritted his teeth. "I actually overlooked her..."
Some people looked ordinary, so it was the easiest to let down one's guard against them.
"I also need to tell you one more thing," Lily said in a low voice, "Camila has been coming to work every day
recently. Everything seems normal, with no signs of guilt... It shows this person has a strong psychological
endurance. You need to plan your next steps."
