My Ex, Please Love Me Again

On the top floor of the Hughes Group.

Maisie went to Julian’s office to discuss the schedule of the next day before knocked off.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

“At ten o’clock in the morning, the new book launch of Vincent Longerich will hold on the first floor of Anderson Bookstore in Riverside City. He will arrive at 9:30.”

“That means you have half an hour to talk to him.”

Vincent’s novels were all very popular. Same did all the TV series which were adapted from them.

This new book was a long-term novel after Vincent’s comeback. Julian planned to buy the rights and promote it in all aspects. In order to show his sincerity, the price he offered to Vincent was also very high.

Julian nodded to show that he got it. Maisie added, “By the way, Emelia said before that she likes books written by Mr. Longerich very much. Nina gave her tickets to the launch. She will definitely go tomorrow.”

Julian was stunned for a moment, then frowned and asked, “Does she like Vincent Longerich’s book?”

He never knew that she liked attending a signing session, but in his memory, she seemed to like reading very much.

She would read books in her spare time. Sometimes sat on the sofa, sometimes laid on the deck chair on the balcony, and sometimes on the bay window of the study which was warm in the sunshine.

Maisie replied, “Yes, Emelia also said that Mr. Longerich has always been her idol and role model. She hopes that one day she can become a famous writer and a successful screenwriter like him.”

Julian didn’t know what to say.

She was really a weirdo. Other girls chased after the male stars, while she chased after a middle-aged old man like Vincent.

Fortunately, Vincent already had a family. Otherwise, Julian would really hate him.

He looked down and asked casually, “Is she back?”

“Yes.” Maisie said, “It seems that she will take the plane tonight.”

Julian nodded without a word. Maisie added, “They are not married yet. She doesn’t need to stay there all the time.”

The word “marry” stabbed Julian.

At this moment, Maisie suddenly exclaimed, “Mr. Hughes, will they get married quickly in order to comfort Viggo’s mother who was dying?”

Maisie did not know that Emelia and Viggo were pretending to be a couple, in order to comfort Viggo’s mother.

She thought that Emelia was really moved by Viggo and fell in love with him.

Thinking of the dramatic plots that often happened in TV shows, Maisie couldn’t help worrying about it.

Maisie’s word shocked Julian. For the first time in 32 years, he panicked.

In an instant, he was so panic. His heart beat faster so much that his hand trembled slightly.

What Maisie said was possible.

For example, the reason why he had compromised to marry Emelia was that Grandpa Hughes had fallen ill!

At that time, Grandpa had to have a big operation. The doctor said that he might not be able to be survived and get off the operating table. He told them to prepare for the worst.

Grandpa had asked him to get married as soon as possible. Although he was dating Yvonne at that time, he didn’t want to get married.

But Grandpa said that he wanted to see him get married before he had the operation. If the operation failed, he would have no regrets if Julian had gotten married.

For this reason, Julian compromised and talked to Yvonne about the marriage.

But Yvonne cried and said that she didn’t want to get married so early. She wanted to enter the entertainment circle. If she got married, no one would give her a work.

Yvonne also said that she didn’t want to be an idle woman, and she didn’t want to rely on her father and him for the rest of her life.

Yvonne refused the marriage and the two broke up.

Then, he was plotted against by Oliver and his son. They sent Emelia to his bed.

They even took Emelia to the hospital the next day to see Grandpa. Grandpa immediately made up his mind to let him marry Emelia.

At first, he was naturally unwilling and went to argue with Grandpa.

Grandpa said that he never made a mistake in judging of people. Emelia would be a good wife.

Now, the same plot was staged again, but the male protagonist of the story was no longer him.

When he learned that Emelia and Viggo were together, although he was unhappy, he didn’t have much sense of crisis.

For no reason, he always felt that Emelia would not be with Viggo for long.

But if they got married, he would have no chance at all.

Seeing that there was something wrong with her boss’s expression, Maisie quickly said, “I was just guessing.”

Julian continued his work without even raising his head. “There’s nothing else. You can get off work.”

Maisie nodded and left silently. When she passed by the CEO Office outside, she was stopped by a female colleague.

The female colleague pulled her and asked in a low voice, “Maisie, is our boss in a better mood?”

Although Maisie and David were Julian’s right-hand men, considering that the Hughes Group was too big, they had to set up an CEO Office which contained dozens of staffs.

At this moment, hearing the question asked by this female colleague, the others in the office immediately looked at Maisie.

Maisie felt a little helpless. It seemed that after today’s work, everyone had felt Julian’s bad mood which depressed them all so much.

However, she could only choose to tell the truth. “I’m sorry to say that our miserable days will continue in the future.”

Wails rose in the office instantly.

The female colleague who held Maisie’s hand said sadly, “Maisie, just because I printed one less copy for today’s meeting. Mr. Hughes actually asked me to write one in hand!”

A male colleague next to them said with gloomy, “I just accidentally yawned. Mr. Hughes saw it and said that I was lack of exercise, then he took me to the gym room of the company, and asked me to do so much exercises that my thigh muscles are still trembling now.”

Another male colleague said, “I was making a phone call to my girlfriend at the open-air bar on our rooftop during lunch break. Suddenly, I felt someone was watching me coldly from my back. I looked back and found Mr. Hughes staring at me with a gloomy face.”

“I think it’s not against the rules of the company for me to fall in love, is it? The company doesn’t forbid me to fall in love, and I called during my lunch break, so it doesn’t take up my working time.”

Maisie laughed and thought to herself, “He and his girlfriend are so sweet, which really stimulated their boss.”

The female colleague pinned her hopes on Maisie. “Listen to them, Maisie. everyone here is full of resentment now. Please think of a way to coax Mr. Hughes with David. If he is happy, we can have a good life, right?”

Maisie held her forehead and sighed. “That’s out of my ability this time, same as David.”

If Julian was not happy about the work, she and David could work overtime and give him a perfect plan overnight. But now he was distressed about his relationship. They couldn’t help him.
