Chapter 1835


    Maisie paused, momentarily uncertain. She wasn’t always quick to react to these situations, not quite


    understanding why.


    “Lily, I’m not well-versed in this stuff, but why not talk to Rachael? She knows a lot; maybe you both


    cane up with something?”


    “Ugh, forget it!” Lily sighed. “Rachael hasn’t been focused on worktely. She’s been taking frequent


    leaves! But… she’s been dedicated to me for so many years, working tirelessly before with no


    comints. Let her rest for a while!”


    “Rachael doesn’t usually take time off, right?” Maisie was puzzled. “Is there something bothering her


    lately?”


    “What could it be? It’s just because…” Lily’s words trailed off.


    It was because she favored Maisie so much that all the good resources flowed toward her. It wasn’t a


    problem for the established authors under thepany. However, Rachael had a few small authors


    under her, and they couldn’t match these resources in terms of experience and capability. Yet, Rachael


    still wanted to try her best for them.

    After Lily rejected Rachael several times, she started feeling jealous.


    Lily took a deep breath and chuckled wryly. “Forget it. Let her be. If she rests for a while, she should be


    fine.”


    Maisie nodded, settled on a time and ce to meet Lily, and hung up. Turning her head, she saw


    Daniel with a glower so dark it seemed he could squeeze ink out of it. She was exasperated.


    “Is there anyone else in your heart now besides Lily?”


    “Don’t say that…”


    Daniel crossed his arms, sporting a scowling pout.


    “How about after I finish this busy period?”

    Maisie gently leaned her head against his shoulder. She smiled and spoke as gently as a babbling


    brook. “After I finish this busy period, I’ll buy you a ring. Will that do?”


    “Nothing you buy me—” Daniel’s words trailed off abruptly as realization hit him like a ton of bricks!


    He looked at her in disbelief. “What did you say you’d… buy?”


    Maisie chuckled. “A ring!”


    “Maisie…”


    “Who says rings can only be bought by men? Marriage is about two people.”


    Daniel stared at her nkly. The suddenness of her surprise rendered him speechless. His mind went


    nk, and a sweet feeling overflowed from his heart as if happiness was bursting out from his chest.


    “So…” he murmured after a while, “Are you really willing to marry me?”


    Maisie leaned gently against his chest with her arms wrapped around him. The joy in her eyes was the


    best answer.


    “Okay.” Daniel kissed her forehead, a fond smile gracing his lips. He said four words solemnly, “I will


    wait for you.”


    Since she was willing to marry him, there was no rush about that matter.
