Chapter 1670


    This feeling of affection for her had started when they first met.


    After a while, Maisie''s soft voice pierced the night''s silence. "Daniel..."


    Daniel was surprised, and his heart began to race. "What did you say?"


    Maisie bit her lip, her cheeks flushing as if she had a fever. She was about to speak when a sharp pain


    gripped her


    lower abdomen. She gasped and curled up in bed.


    Daniel sensed something was wrong and rushed into the bedroom. "Maisie, what''s wrong?"


    He gently turned her and saw her pale face. "Maisie?"


    "I... I''m fine." Maisie forced a smile. "It''s just a stomachache. I''ll be okay if I rest for a while."


    Daniel''s initial thought was that it was her time of the month. He reached for her hand, speaking softly.


    "I''ll go make you some hot chocte."


    "No need." Maisie stopped him. "It''s not that..."


    "What is it?"


    "It''s an old problem," she said weakly with a smile. She had been like that for the past two years,


    experiencing


    sporadic pains on both sides of her stomach. There was no regrity, but it would pass on its own


    without needing


    any medicine.


    Daniel frowned as he suddenly remembered what the doctor had told him years ago. After losing their


    child, the


    doctor had regretfully informed him that she might never conceive again.


    He held her hand firmly. "Maisie, let me take you to the hospital."


    "Really, it''s not necessary!" Maisieughed. "I just need to rest."


    "I''m taking you to see a doctor!" he spoke with determination.


    Maisie hesitated for a moment, seeing the seriousness in his gaze but not detecting the regret and


    tenderness


    hidden within his low, husky voice. She smiled gently, closed her eyes, and buried her face in his palm.


    "Alright. We''ll


    do as you say."


    Daniel stayed by her side until she fell asleep, gently stroking her hair and recalling the torment she


    had endured.


    His heart twisted with pain.


    The next day, Maisie couldn''t resist his persistence and went to the hospital with him. Daniel knew a


    doctor there


    and took care of all the arrangements. His assistant brought him the documents that needed attention


    that day.


    "You should handle your work first," Maisie said. "The doctor won''t be here for a while, and I''ll wait


    here. Besides,


    I''m seeing a gynecologist, so you can''te in with me."


    "Alright." Daniel hesitated for a moment before agreeing. Before leaving, he gently kissed her forehead,


    and they


    exchanged smiles before parting.


    A nurse led Maisie to a VIP lounge on the upper floor. Just as she turned the corner, she was surprised


    toe face


    to face with a familiar face.

    Maisie was startled and instinctively wanted to avoid the meeting, but it was toote.


    "Maisie?" Graham broke free from the two nurses assisting him and hobbled toward her. "Maisie, it''s


    really you!"


    "You..." Maisie looked at his severely injured appearance with surprise. "How did you end up like this?"


    "I ended up like this all because of you..." Graham''s eyes were filled with resentment, and his speech


    was disjointed.


    "Maisie, I really regret it... so I went out for drinks, and then I got into a fight with someone...


    I ended up like this, all because of you!"


    "What are you talking about?" Maisie instinctively took a few steps back to put some distance between


    them.


    Graham stepped in front of her. "Maisie, do I still have a chance? Can you not be with Daniel? Come


    back to me,


    please."
