Chapter 70 Temporary Residence
“Why don’t you stay with me for a few days and hide away first?” Maisie took the initiative to invite him.
“Maisie, thank you, but there’s no need.” Emelia instinctively rejected Maisie’s suggestion.
She was very grateful to Maisie, but Maisie was Julian’ right-hand man. She didn’t want to have anything to do with him.
Moreover, she also knew very well that she could not solve this problem easily.
Once Taylor and Oliver confirmed that she was back, they would definitely look for her endlessly.
Hearing that she had rejected Maisie, Julian turned around and looked at her unhappily.
Emelia avoided his gaze and lowered his head to continue eating.
However, Maisie asked her worriedly, “What about you? Have you been harassed by them all the time?”
“Do you want to go to Nina’s place?” Maisie seemed to have seen through her thoughts. “Last time we ate together, didn’t Nina say that she was going out for filming recently?”
Emelia was speechless.
Maisie didn’t remind her. She had forgotten about it.
Nina had indeed gone out for filming. Before leaving, she sent her a WhatsApp message to inform her.
She had also warned Nina to take good care of herself, but because she had been in a daze from writing the script recently, she didn’t remember for a moment.
Since Nina wasn’t around, she couldn’t enter Nina’s home either.
Seeing that she didn’t speak, Julian ordered without hesitation, “Ask Maisie to go back with you to pack up later. You can stop her in a few days.”
Emelia was about to say something when he said with a gloomy face, “You don’t have to reject Maisie’s good intentions for me. She really treats you as a friend.”
After saying that, Julian walked away without looking back.
Maisie’s personality was extremely slow and warm, and she was also a little cold. She could not invite anyone to stay at home for a few days.
She liked Emelia very much, so she rarely took the initiative to be enthusiastic.
As for Emelia, she often said in front of him that Maisie was a good girl and often brought delicious food for Maisie and David Brennan. It was impossible that she didn’t want to make friends with Maisie.
But now she rejected Maisieso much. He knew it was because of him without thinking.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
He didn’t expect that Julian would be despised for such a long time.
After Julian left, Emelia looked towards Maisie and said apologetically, “I know your good intentions, but I…”
Maisie shook her head and interrupted her. “There’s no need to say, I understand.”
Emelia breathed a sigh of relief and said softly, “Then I’ll have to trouble you these days.”
Maisie laughed. “It’s okay. I welcome you.”
Because Emelia was fine, she left the hospital with Maisie and returned to her current residence to pack up.
In Arthur Hudgens’ office, Julian stood by the window with his trouser bag in his hands. After seeing Emelia and Maisie leave together, he looked away.
Arthur came over and handed him a cup of coffee. “What are you doing now? Are you so concerned about your ex-wife?”
Julian lowered his eyes. “Do I have to watch Taylor harass her?”
Arthur said, “With all due respect, you can turn a blind eye to it. We’re divorced, so there’s no need to care about it.”
Julian didn’t know what to say.
Why was Arthur so heartless?
Have you forgotten how Emelia fed them with delicious food?
Arthur added, “You really don’t know or are you just pretending not to know? All these bad things that happened to Emelia now were caused by you.”
“If you don’t get involved with her, can Yvonne hurt her?” Arthur’ words were so sharp that Julian looked out of the window again in annoyance.
He just received a call from David and said that he had found out the result.
The reason Taylor knew where Emelia lived was because someone had sent him a message.
The number that sent Taylor the message was disposable, but David checked it again and found that it was bought by Caroline’s staff.
Now it was clear that Caroline was behind the case.
Since it was Caroline who did it, it must have something to do with Yvonne.
With Caroline’ character, it was impossible for her to stop targeting Emelia. So he looked out of the window and thought about how to deal with Caroline, his sister who had caused trouble.
She suddenly recalled what Yvonne had said not long ago in front of him. Yvonne said that Caroline could not live like this all the time, so it was better to send her abroad.
On the one hand, he wanted her to disappear from Riverside City for a period of time, so that people would forget about her romantic news.
Secondly, if she had to suffer, she might be much more sensible.
At that time, Julian felt that if he sent Caroline abroad, his mother would definitely be reluctant to leave him and would make trouble for him again.
Just thinking about it anxiously, he didn’t take action.
But at this time, he felt that Yvonne’s idea was good.
Regardless of whether his mother was making trouble or not, he had made up his mind.
Emelia simply packed up a few of his belongings, put on his laptop, and then followed Maisie to her residence.
Maisie’s apartment was located near the Hughes Group’s Building. It was in a good location with an area of about 150 square meters. The decoration was very simple and elegant in Northern Eupe. It was very similar to Maisie’s character.
As Julian’s right-hand assistant, Maisie could be considered a member of the gold collar clan in this city and earned a lot of money.
Maisie led Emelia to a south guest bedroom. “You can live in this room. The lighting here is good, and you can use my study at will. Anyway, I’m in the company during the day, so I won’t use it.”
Emelia hurriedly said, “Thank you.”
Maisie took her to familiarize herself with the whole apartment, and then they sat down at the bar counter.
Maisie smiled and said to Emelia, “The opposite door is David’s house, but he doesn’t live here.”
Emelia was very curious. “Why?”
Why couldn’t David live in such a good location and environment?
Maisie said, “Because my mother sometimes comes up to live for a few days. He can’t stand being urged to get married by my mother all day long, so he simply moved away.”
Emelia couldn’t help but laugh. “He’s really cute. Your mother treats you so well.”
Maisie lowered her eyes and said in a slightly dejected tone, “It should be said that she treats David very well.”
Seeing that Emelia’s face was full of confusion, Maisie added, “They value men more than women. My mother only cares about David. She doesn’t have me at all.”
“She keeps saying that everything between her and my dad will be David’s. But in fact, what do they have? I gave them the only money left.”
Emelia was a little surprised. It seemed that Maisie’s mother had taken money from Maisie and left it for his son?
“Every time she comes here, she only brings David’s favorite food. I can only get a little bit from his plate.”
“She lives here every time. She said that she didn’t want David to take care of them, but she didn’t care about me, her daughter, who cooks them three meals a day.”
“David has protested against her many times. Tell her not to be so biased towards men, but she can’t listen at all.”
“David said that he would return everything to me in the future.” Maisie laughed at herself. “In fact, what I care about is not the money, but as her mother… Can you give me more love?”
“If we hadn’t been saved by the charity fund of the Hughes Group, I would have been forced to drop out of school and work to make money for David.”
Emelia’s heart ached for Maisie’s words. It was said that every family had a skeleton in the cupboard. So true.
