Chapter 1769


    "She wants to tell the world..." Even Rachael found it ridiculous. "Wouldn''t the Quimbys be humiliated?"


    Lily sighed. She had stayed with the Quimbys before. Although they were only a nominal couple, she


    knew the


    dynamics of the family quite well.


    Back then, criticisms from the board of directors were abundant when Daniel kept Maisie by his side.


    Now that Maisie was revealing their past to the world, those individuals would seize the opportunity to


    make things


    difficult for him.


    Perhaps she didn''t realize how terrible things could turn out.


    However, with the potential butterfly effect, a storm might be stirred when it reached Daniel.


    "I''ll talk to her," Lily said.


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    "What about the PR promo."


    "It''ll proceed as usual," Lily insisted, realizing she couldn''t back off now. "She has signed the contract.


    How can we


    go back on our promise with the distributor? But keep an eye on her at events. Advise her on what to


    say and what


    not to say beforehand, got it?"


    "Okay!"


    -


    Soon, Maisie became a popr new writer.


    Her life became a whirlwind of continuous book signings, seminars, and fan meetings. She was busy,


    lacking the


    time to immerse herself in sad memories.


    Royalties and remuneration grew significantly. With sufficient financial stability, she moved out of the


    hotel and


    purchased a two-story loft in the city center.


    Although it was small, it faced a great direction with amazing light. She decorated it with elegance,


    capturing the


    aesthetic of an author.


    The moment Maisie signed the house deed, she fell in a daze, recalling how much she had wanted to


    build a home


    with Daniel. She had forgotten that a woman should be independent. -


    Maisie read a book in front of the window while the coffee was boiling, its fragrance lingering in the


    house. Time


    passed by in peace. Everything was amazing.


    She checked her phone. Daniel had texted her again.


    He texted her every day now, just a simple greeting. Perhaps he didn''t know what to say to her, but he


    insisted on


    texting her.


    Maisie had never responded, worried that doing so would lead her back to him and down the sad path


    again.


    Despite not responding, she couldn''t bring herself to delete his messages. She read them repeatedly


    as if engraving


    each word in her head.


    Taking a deep breath, she shook her head to wake herself up and then turned off her phone—out of


    sight, out of


    mind.


    Soon, there was a knock on her door. She opened it hesitantly to find Lily standing there with a happy


    smile.


    "Lily?"


    "Jeez! Why did you do this to me? Why did you turn off your phone? I couldn''t call you. I only found


    your new house


    address after asking a couple of people!"


    Maisie quickly let her into the house.


    Lily couldn''t help but smile as she looked around. "It''s clean and elegant. It''s very you!"


    Maisie was stunned before replying with a smile, "How can you tell a person''s character by looking at


    their house?"
