Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart
Chapter 840 Priceless and Not for Sale

Susan was about to beat Maisie but came to a halt when she caught the sight of Ezra. David gave her some information about Ezra.

According to his description, Ezra was an unstable and relentless man who showed no respect to his father even when his father fell ill and needed to stay at the hospital. David specifically warned her to stay away from Ezra after briefing her.

Susan was a cowardly bully. With his superior background, she knew Ezra was not the type of person she could mess around with.

And Ezra's arrival was out of her expectation.

Ezra pulled Maisie behind him when Susan was coming up to her. The unfriendly glance he threw sent shivers down Susan's spine.

David also pulled her mother in a hurry. He has told her mother to be nice to Maisie before but she didn't listen at all.

At this moment David was grateful to Ezra. Unlike him who has an inseparable connection with Susan, Ezra could deter Susan easily with a look. Maisie was about to say something but Ezra stopped her. Ezra thrust Ezio into Maisie's arms and said, "You go outside with Ezio. I will do the talking." Maisie didn't know what to say.

Ezra seemed to reverse the position of Maisie and him. Now she became the person to go outside.

Of course, Ezra wouldn't go along with that arrangement. Susan was her mother, not his.

She thought for a while and passed Ezio to David, saying, "You take him to the outside."

David was about to reject her, but he changed his mind thinking of the frightened look of his mother when she confronted Ezra.

Now there were three of them in the room. Susan asked Ezra alertly, "What, what are you up to?"

According to Susan's requirement, the hotel room Susan stayed in should be quite luxurious and paid for by Maisie. She wouldn't miss any chance of taking advantage of her daughter.

David didn't argue with her about it but instead paid for it secretly using his credit card.

There was a large comfy couch in the room and Ezra grabbed Maisie's arm to have her sit down with him.

He sat in a relaxed posture, looked up, and asked Susan with a cold smile, "This question should be asked by me. What are you up to?"

"This is your daughter. You stormed into her office and made a scene. Her reputation is ruined by you. Who could you ask for money if she loses her job?"

Before Susan could react, he added, "Let me guess, someone paid you a load of money to have you kick up a fuss like this. And that money might have arrived since you disregarded your daughter's reputation and career."

Susan paused for a short while and then she sat down, shouting. "That's nonsense. I don't know what you are talking about."

Out of guilt, Susan didn't give Ezra any chance of talking and asked in her usual shrewish way. "When are you planning to marry my daughter? Shouldn't you marry her now that she is the biological mother of your son?"

Maisie knew that would happen. She directly declared. "I want this baby. He has nothing to do with this. I have no such plan of marrying him. Besides, I am leaving for a foreign country." "What? You are leaving for a foreign country?"

Maisie answered calmly, "Yes. I am handing over my job now. I would have come back with David to announce this even if you haven't come today."

"You..." Susan was too surprised to say anything.

Maisie took a credit card from her bag and handed it to Susan, saying, "Inside is all the money I have saved for all these years, except some I reserved for me and Ezio."

Ezra frowned when he heard the word "all".

Did Maisie give all her money to her mother?

Yet this was understandable. She was ending their nasty relationship in such a resolute way.

Presumably, Maisie wouldn't come back once she left.

Ezra felt a dart of panic.

Maisie didn't notice Ezra's expression, continuing serenely. "I am afraid I won't come back very often because Ezio is still at his young age. Sorry, I couldn't fulfill my filial duty in the following few years."

Maisie said in earnest.

But Susan finally understood what she said. She threw away the credit card and stood up to scream abuse at her, "What do you mean? You are departing for another country without marrying this man?" "Maisie, are you stupid?"

"Get him to marry you now that you gave birth to his son!"

"Ask him for compensation even if you don't marry him!"

Susan was beyond happy when she learned about Ezra's position. Plenty of money was seemingly beckoning her.

Admittedly she was proud that her daughter could have a wealthy man's baby.

People of a wealthy families are keen on having hair to inherit their large fortune. She couldn't understand why her daughter raised the child secretly. Maisie could have gained huge profits from this child or squeezed her way into a rich family through this baby.

Susan planned to persuade Maisie into returning the kid to Ezra. In this way, she could make a fortune and be a single woman again to marry another man.

But Maisie was taking the kid to another country, which made her pissed off.

Maisie's saving was incomparable to the profit they could gain if Maisie married Ezra.

Even blackmailing Ezra was way much better than just leaving this country with the child.

What Susan didn't realize was that Maisie was heavily annoyed by her words.

Ezio was her soft spot and also things that couldn't be negotiated with.

For the first time Maisie retorted with a serious expression, "I said I wanted this baby. I have never intended to trade him for anything! Including money!" Word by word she said in tears, "My son is priceless and not for sale."

"You stupid. Have you lost your mind?" Susan cried loudly after scolding her.
