Married a Secret Billionaire

Chapter 1765

Maisie's lips quivered, and she cast her gaze downward.

Daniel sensed the tension and wanted to reach for her hands, but she coldly avoided his touch.

She finally spoke after a prolonged silence, with the wind whispering around them. "We can never be together

again, Daniel."

Although Daniel had anticipated those words, they pierced him, causing an ache in his heart. Despite the mental

preparation, the reality of her declaration stung. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Forcing a smile, he nodded and attempted one last plea. "I-I know I'm not worthy of your forgiveness for my past

actions, but I'm willing to make amends. That's my sincere desire. You can either accept or reject it, but I'll do my

best—"

"No need," she cut him off, turning her back. "Your efforts now are merely to ease your conscience. You didn't

cherish me when I loved you most, nor did you value our child. There's no need for such gestures now."

"Maisie—"

"Do you understand the pain I feel every step I take here?!" Her tone intensified, her shoulders shaking with

suppressed emotions.

Although Daniel couldn't see her face, he sensed her sobbing and felt helpless in comforting her.

He was desperate to console her and yearned to embrace her, but, as she had pointed out, the opportunity had

slipped away.

As she turned to leave, he remained frozen, his hair tousled by the breeze, the bouquet of daisies swaying slightly.

Time passed unnoticed until he received a call from his subordinate upon entering his car.

"Sir."

"How is it?"

"We've been tailing Camila for the past few days, but no new developments. The police station didn't yield any

useful information either. Sir, should we continue surveillance?"

Daniel fell into contemplative silence.

His subordinate continued. "I personally think it's unnecessary. There's no clue on her side. Perhaps what happened

to Yvette really had nothing to do with her. Also, although she's an adoptive daughter, she's your uncle's child. If we

alert the enemy—"

Daniel coughed hard, and his subordinate stopped halfway.

Daniel understood what his subordinate was trying to convey. Having them follow Camila might seem like he was

going against his uncle. If it alerted him, he could gain leverage over Daniel at the board of directors' meeting.

However, Daniel had a backup of his uncle's suspicious account. He had not disclosed it to anyone, not even the

person he trusted the most.

He was cautious, having cultivated the habit of meticulousness during his years as the head of the company. He

wouldn't reveal anything until everything was ready.

However, Camila had exposed the past to Maisie before he could execute his plan, and that angered him.

"Sir?" His subordinate panicked upon hearing nothing from him.

Daniel took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Continue to follow her."

"Okay..."

"There must be something up with her!"

Camila arrived at a rundown community after disguising herself.
