Chapter 1754


    Both of them had done things for someone, but who was that person? Was this rted to Maisie?


    Just then, he received a call from the hotel, informing him that Maisie had already regained


    consciousness. Daniel


    suppressed his thoughts and immediately rushed back to the hotel.


    Although Maisie had awakened, she still looked pale and weak. When she saw Daniel, she smiled. As


    he sat by her


    bedside and embraced her, she took a deep breath and said softly, "I''m so tired..."


    Daniel gently stroked her head, feeling his heart ache.


    "I feel like I''ve walked a long way," Maisie murmured, as if in a dream. "The path never seemed to end,


    and you


    were always ahead. I kept shouting for you, but it seemed like you couldn''t hear me. You were just


    ignoring me..."


    "Silly girl." Danielforted her softly. "You''ve been under a lot of stresstely because of your writing.


    Sometimes


    I feel that the decision to bring you to Cumulus City was... perhaps a mistake.


    "Maisie, how about we go back to Centrolis?"


    Maisie, who was surprised, looked at him. "Do you really want to go?"


    "I..."


    "I actually think this ce is fine," Maisie said in a low voice. "Although I had a serious illness before


    and lost my

    memory, there''s a special sense of familiarity here. Maybe because I was born and raised here. The


    older


    generations were right. People do return to their roots. If possible... I''d like to stay here for the rest of


    my life."


    Daniel kissed her hair lightly, forcing a smile.


    "Then our home will be here."


    "Our home?"


    Daniel nodded. He had long decided to give Maisie a home, and this home had to be far away from the


    previous


    ce.


    "Oh, my manuscript..." Maisie hastily tried to get up, but the sudden movement caused her to feel dizzy


    and fall


    back into Daniel''s embrace.


    "Don''t worry about that right now," Daniel said gently. "ording to Cam, the final draft is ready.


    There won''t be any more work for you in theter stages. I''ll talk to Lily about everything else. You just


    focus on


    resting. After the new book is published, you need to keep your promise and be Mrs. Quimby."


    "Oh..." Maisie blushed slightly, leaning against him with a smile.


    "Maisie."


    "Yeah?"


    "Before we get married, I have a story I want to tell you." Daniel held her hand. His palm was warm, but


    cold sweat


    dotted his forehead. It had taken a lot of courage for him to say those words.


    Lily was right. Rather than letting her learn about the past from someone else, it would be better for him


    to tell her


    himself.


    Maisie blinked. "What kind of story?"


    "A story like... the you wrote." Daniel smiled. "But I''ll have to wait until you''re done with work before I


    can


    slowly tell you. This story is long, and the ending may not be satisfactory, but I really want to tell you


    about it."


    Maisie smiled, thinking he wanted to provide material for her books.


    "It''s gettingte." She looked at the clock. "Are you staying here tonight?"


    "I''m a bit worried about you." Daniel looked at her. "But there are some business matters I need to


    handle. I might


    have to go back to the officeter."


    "You can rest assured. I can manage on my own. Besides, there are doctors and nurses here. If I don''t


    feel well, I''ll


    just call them."


    "Alright." He squeezed her small hand. "In a couple of days, we''ll go look at houses and decorate and


    furnish them


    ording to your favorite style. You''ll be busy beautifying our home in the future!"


    "Okay!" Maisie smiled sweetly.


    The moment he mentioned "home", however, she suddenly felt a twisting pain in her chest. It felt like


    the moment


    she had first met him. That instantaneous agony...
