Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart -
Chapter 884 What A Nice Dress
Maisie preferred simple styling clothes. She planned to wear a velvet dress and a cashmere coat because she thought it was formal and solemn to wear a dress to meet Ezra's mother for the first time. She just did not expect it would be a little hard to do up the dress's zip, which led to an awkward scene at the moment.
Luckily, Daisy appeared on the stairs at the right time, holding the child. Maisie said to her, "Daisy, please come up and do me a favor."
She turned around and ran back to her bedroom; she didn't want Ezra to help her zip up, because it was flirtatious.
Ezra thus lost the opportunity to help her. When Maisie left, the only thing Ezra saw was her beautiful white back.
After carrying the child upstairs, Daisy saw Ezra was there too. Daisy was a bit surprised for a while, wondering why Maisie did not ask Ezra for help.
But, adhering to the principle of no gossip, she handed the child over to Ezra and said, "I'll go in and help Maisie with a favor."
Ezra nodded and went downstairs with the child in his arms.
"We are going to pick up grandma. She is a very nice person, beautiful, elegant, and of course, selfless."
Ezra introduced his mother to his son Ezio, and his descriptions were full of appreciation and love.
As Daisy entered Maisie's bedroom, she realized that she was going to help Maisie zipper up the dress. It was wise that Daisy had not asked Ezra to come in and help, otherwise, it would have really been embarrassing.
After Daisy helped Maisie, Maisie stood in front of the mirror and fixed her hair and face a bit. She wore a necklace to match the V-neck dress, which improved her style and grace a lot.
Daisy could tell that Maisie was nervous, so she reassured her with a smile, "It's normal to be nervous when you meet your mother-in-law for the first time."
"Really?" Maisie took a deep breath-she was indeed suffering from nerves.
Although her current relationship with Ezra was not a marriage in her opinion, she was still apprehensive about meeting his mother. Besides, Ezra had rarely mentioned his mother before and she did not know about her.
Daisy added, "I reckon that your mother-in-law should be a good person to get along with.
"Mr. Cantillo looks like a bad-tempered person and is hard to get along with. But when I get to know him, I replace he is very easygoing. Your mother-in-law must give him a good upbringing."
Maisie thought Daisy's analysis of her mother-in-law was quite reasonable. Ezra's identity and his appearance did make others regard him as an unapproachable person. But he was never hard on details. Maisie took the coat and went downstairs with Daisy. Ezra, who was holding his son, praised her openly, "What a nice dress!"
His praise made Maisie a little bashful as Daisy stood next. She replied, "Thank you."
Maisie thought they were ready to go, while Ezra handed her Ezio and said, "Let me go upstairs to take some things. Before we go, let's get to know my mom."
It did not take long for Ezra to come down with a large and thick album.
Maisie looked at him with surprise. Maisie had to know about his mother, but what did he mean by taking such a big album to introduce herself?
Maisie took Ezio and followed Ezra to the sofa in the living room. Ezra carried his son from Maisie's arms and let Maisie open the album. Maisie opened it, and the title page showed a seven or eight-year-old boy happily snuggling into the arms of a beautiful woman.
Obviously, the boy was Ezra, and the woman was supposed to be his mother; he bore a striking similarity to his mother in eyes and brows.
Maisie said, "Is she your mother?"
She found it a bit funny. Ezra at that time was changing over from milk teeth and he was laughing excitedly, so the missing incisors were even more conspicuous, which made him look funny. He now had an aura very different from then.
"Why are you laughing? Don't you have a tooth replacement period?" Ezra snorted when he found Maisie wanted to laugh but was too embarrassed to do so. Then he turned over the page.
He wanted to show her how cute he had been when he was a kid, but she just laughed at him.
"Your mother is beautiful." In Maisie's eyes, Ezra was quite childish; it was not a big deal that she laughed at him indeed.
But she had to admit that the relationship and the atmosphere between Ezra and his mother was good and warm, which she longed for.
It was not like her family, which her existence seemed to be a great burden to her parents; her parents never showed love and care for her, as if she owed billions of dollars to them.
The first half of the album was mostly pictures of Ezra with his mother. He laughed happily in each photo, and he sometimes made faces or naughty, exaggerated actions. And his mother was smiling at him invariably, full of love.
Maisie signed, "I can see your mother loves you very much."
Ezra said with a muffled voice, "Yeah."
When it came to his childhood, Ezra showed his hatred for his father, because it was his father who deprived him of happiness.
Maisie then turned the pages, and the content suddenly changed to magazine covers. There were many fashion magazines, whose covers were female celebrities, stylish and charming.
Maisie wondered why the content changed to all kinds of beauties? Isn't he going to introduce his mother?
And, Ezra's fetish was a little scary. Maisie did not think he would like to collect the covers of
Maisie stopped turning the pages when thinking of the covers, and she gave Ezra a meaningful look.
"What's wrong?" Ezra did not understand why she looked at him in such a way suddenly.
Maisie reminded politely, "Maybe you gave me the wrong album. It should be your private collection, right?"
Private collection?
Ezra glanced at the cover beauties in the album and realized what Maisie meant. Immediately, he became so angry that he wanted to fight or beat someone.
What did she take him for?
A pervert who liked to collect such things?
"What are you thinking about!" Ezra yelled at Maisie in annoyance.
Before Maisie could make any response, Ezio, staying in Ezra's arms, gave Ezra a blow to his heart. Because of the yelling, immediately, the little boy stopped playing with toys in his hands, and compressed his mouth with his large eye filled with tears, watering.
Ezra turned to coax him, "I'm sorry. I shouldn't speak so loudly. Please don't cry."
The little boy did not cry as Ezra wished, but his eyes blinked and tears then rolled down. Hastily, Ezra got a tissue to wipe away his tears, but the little boy refused to stay in his arms and turned to Maisie's cuddle.
Ezra passed Ezio to Maisie helplessly and then stared at the little boy and sulked with his hands crossed.
'I hadn't done anything bad to Maisie yet, just spoke in a louder voice. How come this little gremlin does not like me?' Ezra was so confused.
