Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart -
Chapter 846 She Made Better Coffee
"Just pretend you don't know it," Diana said without looking back.
Diana was determined to be a devil. But she could not let Ruth be with her. Ruth and Anna were still young and deserved good lives.
Originally, Diana did not go off the rails like this. Over the years, she had done many things on the edge of the law and morality, but this time she was completely forced to the dead end by Mrs. Marshall. Whenever Diana thought that Mrs. Marshall was with Roman, she wanted to tear Mrs. Marshall into pieces.
"Just you wait. Sooner or later, it will be that little bitch's turn," Diana thought in great hatred.
As soon as Diana left, Roman called Mrs. Marshall and told her about Diana's proposal to transfer Linda to a nursing home. Roman said that he agreed with Diana, and so Mrs. Marshall did not turn it down. At last, Roman exhorted Mrs. Marshall, "You should keep a good relationship with her. If I pass away in the future, she can help you, especially for the sake of Linda's health. My poor Linda needs lots of money to pay for the remedy."
When Mrs. Marshall heard him mentioning death, she couldn't help but say in a choked voice over the phone, "But in case she and Ezra replace out about my relationship with you, she'll strangle me to death definitely."
"Don't worry. Ezra can't handle his own business now, and he doesn't have time to care about us. I believe that as long as I don't replace fault with him, he won't disclose it to the public," Roman comforted Mrs. Marshall.
In fact, Roman had little confidence in Ezra. But now he could only tell Mrs. Marshall in this way. Anyway, when he died later, he could not know about their catfights.
And Roman had little affection for Linda. He did not like his daughters, not to mention Linda was a sick child.
Roman had two or three illegitimate daughters. He gave their mothers a sum of money and forbade them to disturb his life again when they got to his door. The reason why he had been taking care of Linda was only because of Linda's mother, Janie Wilson or Mrs. Marshall.
On the surface, Janie seemed gentle and quiet, rather good at pleasing men and getting their affections. Thus, he could not be ruthless to her as he did to other women.
In addition, Janie had a good relationship with Diana. So, Roman had been entangled with her for these years.
Among so many women, who was the one that Roman missed the most nowadays?
It should be Ezra's mother.
First of all, of course, it was because she was the most beautiful and elegant woman he had ever met. Second, she always gave him the cold shoulder. As the saying goes, the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. The unavailable woman, too, was the best one. The more she ignored him, the more he loved her. Later, he did some tricks to get her.
Another reason was that she gave birth to his only son. Thus, he certainly missed her more.
When thinking about those things related to the indifferent woman, Roman missed her suddenly. He was going to die sooner or later. If he could see her before dying and say sorry to her, it would be good. He knew that he had changed her life due to his devious means.
In fact, he had ruined her life. She then loved someone else, but she had to stay away from that man because she had an affair with him. Then, Diana had made a scene on the topic of Ezra's mother, so she was tainted with scandals and had to leave the country.
With Roman's previous explanation, Mrs. Marshall agreed with Diana's proposal immediately when Diana contacted her. "Honey, thank you so much. I don't even know what to say."
"It's OK. We are good friends!" Diana's tone was the same as usual on the phone.
But in her heart, she thought mockingly, "Mrs. Marshall is indeed a bitch. She even shares a husband with her, isn't she?"
"I also want you to relax. I replace you have pined away these days," Diana said heartily. "We should go for a beauty treatment together one day."
Mrs. Marshall said, "OK. I am thinking of asking you out, yet I'm afraid you're not in the mood for a facial because of all the things you've met lately."
What Mrs. Marshall referred to was that Ezra had an unexpected son.
Diana has fought with Ezra for so many years and must be anxious to learn that he had a son.
"I'm fine." Diana smiled blandly. "I'm going to relax just because there're a lot of things going on."
"Why don't we meet this afternoon?" Diana invited.
"Okay," Mrs. Marshall answered at once. "We can talk about the details of Linda's transfer to the nursing home."
After Diana hung up the phone, the mocking smile on her face became more deepened.
Doing beauty treatments?
Diana would firstly ruin Janie's face so that Janie then could not hook up with men with her beautiful face.
Ezra had known that Diana had almost gone crazy. Some people were working for Ezra and reported to him what Diana was doing. However, Ezra did not intend to intervene.
Anyway, if Diana and Janie made a scene, it would benefit him; so why should he care?
What Ezra wanted to do now was to make Maisie give up her plan of leaving the country.
Yes, he did not want Maisie to go abroad with his son at all. His agreement and compromise were all feigned.
After Ezra spent 1.5 million dollars to let Maisie's mother break off the relationship with Maisie, Ezra drove Maisie and his son home and he was not turned away.
If it was before, Maisie would have let him go when he sent her son and her downstairs.
When entering the home, Daisy took the child to the room first. Maisie looked at Ezra and asked, "Tea or coffee? Or water?"
Ezra smiled. "It's not easy to be served with coffee today."
Seeing that Maisie was about to ignore him again, he replied immediately, "Coffee."
Maisie turned and left.
It did not take long for a mellow, fragrant latte to appear in front of Ezra with latte art on it, as delicate as the one she prepared for him every day when they were lovers. Maisie held a cup of iced Americano as usual.
It was funny that Ezra liked to drink lattes and preferred to add more sugar, while Maisie liked iced Americano all year round.
"Thanks." Sitting on the sofa, Ezra held up his coffee and thanked Maisie.
After taking a sip, he complimented, "Your coffee is getting better."
Maisie replied politely, "It's just OK. It falls far short of the coffee made by the barista in your cafe."
The most popular Sunshine Cafe in Riverside City was run by Ezra. The reason for its popularity was mainly because of its coffee. Compared to the chief barista Annie in the cafe, Maisie's skills in making coffee were not worth mentioning.
Ezra stared at her and said in a soft tone, "The two kinds of coffee have different meanings, so they taste different.
"I think the one you made tastes better." Ezra's eyes were full of emotions. Maisie realized the other meaning of his words: It was only because she was the one who made it.
It was ironic that Ezra started to flatter her when they had broken up.
