Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart -
Chapter 848 Ezra Was Blacklisted
"Thank you for your kindness. I don't think it's small at all." Maisie typed these words word by word on the phone, gritting her teeth.
Maisie knew how important her work was to her, so she had high requirements for her study.
Every item in the study was selected carefully by herself and each was the most comfortable and suitable for her.
Her study was very big and there was a wall-to-wall bookcase which was filled with all kinds of books and various trophies she had won since childhood, as well as photos of her with some business figures. There was also good sunlight and a comfortable, romantic bay window. The desk was made of thick solid wood and was so large that she could put all her working materials on it when she was busy. It was not small at all!
Ezra did not know what else to say, so he just picked a topic, otherwise, he was too bored to stay by himself.
After receiving her reply, he then changed the topic, "I saw your photo with Professor Daisy. I got tickets for his next lecture. Can I invite you to go to the lecture?"
Prof. Daisy was an old professor of economics whom Maisie venerated very much. A few years ago, Maisie attended one of his lectures and took a photo with the old man. She then kept that photo in her study as a souvenir.
Over the years, Maisie had become Julian's right-hand woman and was much busier than before. Even if there was an opportunity to attend Prof. Daisy's lecture, she had no time to go at all.
Ezra knew about it and that was why he invited her to attend the lecture.
However, the chatbox had been silent for ages since the invitation was sent, so Ezra sent another query, "Busy? Why don't you answer my messages?"
As soon as the message was sent, a big red alert showed up on his phone, indicating that he had been blacklisted by Maisie!
Ezra jumped down from the bay window in disbelief, staring at his phone for a long time.
She had blacklisted him?
She had blacklisted him!
When Maisie and he broke up, Maisie changed her contact information to cut off all relations with him. At that time, he could understand her.
But now...
He just sent her a few messages, though they were boring and meaningless. But should he be blacklisted? How insensitive!
She did not care about his feelings at all!
Ezra was extremely annoyed, but he could not change the situation.
In the past, he would have turned around and walked away, if he had been treated like this by a woman; but now he was unwilling to leave her.
Here was his cute little son and...
And a woman who made him upset.
Maisie had loved him, hadn't she?
How come she disliked him so much now?
What was wrong?
What Ezra did not understand was that the problem lay in him.
Maisie had her own principles of self-respect as a woman. She would love him wholeheartedly when they were in love; but when they broke up and had no sexual links, she would keep a normal distance between him, as a normal man and a normal woman would do.
Maisie could not accept the current situation where Ezra was kind of flirting with her.
If Ezra loved her or really wanted to ask her to stay, he should convince her with a firm attitude. However, the fact was the opposite. Thus, Maisie could only take his actions as unserious flirting and give him the cold shoulder.
Ezra took the phone to dial Maisie in great anger. He wanted to protest and complain.
The result was that Maisie's phone was switched off, against Ezra obviously.
Ezra paced around the study angrily, and then rushed out to get wine. He needed to calm down by drinking.
Daisy had just come out of the kitchen when she met Ezra who was looking for something in the dining room. The man looked furious.
Daisy went forward and asked tentatively, "Mr. Cantillo, what are you looking for?"
"Wine," Ezra said briefly.
Daisy was startled and thought to herself, "Is it okay to drink during the day?
"Besides, there's nothing to go with wine."
But she took out a bottle of red wine from the nearby cabinet and handed it to him. "The wine is in the cabinet over here."
Ezra turned to take the bottle of wine and looked at the cabinet, which displayed a number of red wines.
He grunted, "So many wines. Does she drink a lot?"
"No," Daisy laughed. "Maisie is very disciplined and she lives a regular life. These wines are only prepared to celebrate New Year's Day or something happy."
Ezra did not say anything else but took a corkscrew and a goblet to open the wine on the nearby table.
Daisy reckoned that Ezra was not the real owner of the home and it was impolite for him to drink in Maisie's house. But Daisy was a nanny and she was not allowed to stop him in this way. So, she took the phone back to her room and gave Maisie a call. If Maisie allowed her to stop him, then she would be confident in doing so.
However, Maisie's phone was off, which was a surprise to Daisy.
In fact, Maisie never switched off her phone when she was at work, in case her son and Daisy could not contact her as something urgent happened. But now, the phone was truly off.
Daisy understood when she noticed the angry man in the house.
The two must be quarreling and Maisie simply turned off the phone in order to avoid Ezra. No wonder Ezra wanted to drink; he was drowning his sorrows in wine.
Daisy did not want to interfere with their quarrels after knowing the general situation.
When the child woke up after a while, Daisy took the kid out of the room and intended to let him stay with his father Ezra. But Daisy did not expect Ezra had chugged a bottle of red wine at that time. Not only that, Ezra had opened the second bottle and was drinking it.
Daisy was startled, and she hurried up to dissuade Ezra, "Mr. Cantillo, you can't drink anymore."
Ezra looked at her and drunkenly reached out his hands towards the child in Daisy's arms, "You little man, come here and let me hold you."
He was so drunk that Daisy did not dare to let him hold the child. She hastily took a step back and said, "No, no. What if you drop the baby?"
The little boy in Daisy's arms did not know that Ezra was drunk, and he reached out his little hands to touch Ezra, babbling. Daisy was so anxious that her forehead began to sweat. Jesus, what was this all about?
"I'm not drunk. Don't worry," Ezra replied stubbornly. He then continued to wave at the little boy in Daisy's arms.
The little boy was kicking his legs in excitement and was eager to hug Ezra.
Daisy was about to collapse. She rushed back to her room with the kid in her arms and gave Maisie a call, praying that Maisie's phone was on, or she would not know what to do next. The good thing was that Maisie's phone was connected quickly. Upon getting connected, Maisie heard her son's cries on the phone, and she asked Daisy worriedly, "What's happening?"
Indeed, she had switched her phone off before in order to avoid Ezra. She knew that Ezra would be dissatisfied with being blacklisted and would certainly complain about it to her. She did not want to suy anything more to him and she was also going to have a meeting, so she simply shut down the phone to have a quiet moment.
She did not expect that her son would cry loudly on the phone as she had turned off the phone for several minutes.
