Married a Secret Billionaire

Chapter 1784

Daniel inched closer, his chest nearly touching her flushed face. He murmured in her ear in a low, charming voice, “I’ll keep waiting until you nod.”

Maisie stood there, unmoving. She glanced at him, then chuckled shyly.

Just then, Daniel’s phone rang—his assistant urgently needed his attention for some company matters.

Forcing a smile, he said, “I need to head back.”

“Alright.” Maisie nodded gently.

“Take care of yourself. Call me after the tea party ends, and I’ll come pick you up.”

“You focus on your work,” she said. “My home isn’t far. I’ll manage.”

“Fair enough.” He didn’t push. “If you need anything, don’t hesitate to contact me.”

As Maisie watched him walk away, a whirlwind of emotions overcame her. He was the first person she ever loved, perhaps the only one in her life.

However, the more the love, the harder it was to forget the hurt.

She sighed softly.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…

Suddenly, a clear voice sounded beside her, “Can you still see anything when he’s gone that far?”

Startled, Maisie turned to see a handsome face.

He exuded a classic bookish aura, dressed in a white shirt, with features chiseled like a leading man in a campus novel. His smile seemed to embody the world’s sunshine.

Maisie was momentarily stunned, but the man’s expression changed instantly.

“Hey, watch out!”

He reached out, pulling her over abruptly.

Maisie stumbled, almost colliding with him, but he caught her, revealing a muscular forearm beneath his rolled-up white shirt.

His other hand grabbed the clumsy waiter, preventing a cacophony of crashing dishes and chaos.

Maisie composed herself, noticing the waiter’s panicked expression. If this man hadn’t pulled her away, the cakes and tea in the waiter’s hands would have spilled all over her.

She hurriedly thanked him, “Thank you so much.”

“No problem.” The man smiled. “You’re… Maisie Squire, right?”

“You know me?”

“I am—”

Before he could finish his sentence, Maisie’s phone suddenly rang. She stepped aside to answer, hearing Nicole speaking frantically.

“Maisie, can you come to the hospital? It’s mom… She’s feeling really unwell and keeps complaining about chest pain. I brought her here, but it’s overcrowded. The doctors can only provide basic treatment for now, and we’re waiting for a hospital bed…” ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“What?” Maisie froze. “Mom’s having heart trouble, and they can’t admit her?”

“They can admit her, but there’s a queue. There are no available beds now!” Nicole sounded distressed. “There are many others like us waiting… Maisie, I can’t bear to see her like this. Although

the doctors gave her a drip to stabilize her condition temporarily, I’m really worried something…”

Maisie felt heavy-hearted. She knew her mother’s condition was due to Owen.

Owen and Camila had been imprisoned, facing legal repercussions. Camila had been sentenced, and Owen had to go to rehab before he went to prison. Their days weren’t easy.

However, Cindy blamed Maisie for everything, thinking Daniel was conspiring with her. She believed Daniel manipulated things against Owen, with Maisie’s involvement behind the scenes.
