Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart
Chapter 932 Never Gave Up

Maisie hung up on him and stood up. She tried to argue with Julian, "Mr. Hughes, I..."

Julian interrupted her, "You've got a whole week to adapt to it. So, no rush! You don't have to wrap all the things up in one day!"

Julian thought of it and explained, "You haven't worked for me for a long time and you might not know my attitude towards work now. Since I became a father of two, I tried to get off work on time and go home to stay with Emelia and the kids. So, you don't have to work overtime again."

Julian glanced at David beside him, "If someone has to work overtime, David will stay. He's single, anyway."

David was speechless.

What was it all about?

Right, he was single. But what was the problem with it?

"OK, then." Maisie saw Julian was gonna stand there and wait for her to clean up and leave. She had no choice but to turn off the computer.

She used to firmly believe Julian would stand on her side, but she just felt he was helping Ezra this time.

He must have known Ezra was making a stir and waiting for her downstairs. That was why he came over and talked her into leaving the office earlier.

But, she was really a workaholic! She couldn't fall asleep with her job undone. She packed a pile of papers in her bag though she was leaving.

Julian glanced at her bag with those papers in it and thought that was the best he could do to help Ezra.

They clocked out and went out of the office. By no means did Maisie want to see Ezra. So, she just turned around and left directly.

Her apartment in Riverside City was near the Hughes Group. Usually, she walked to work if there wasn't anything urgent. She walked over to the office this morning and she planned to walk back home so that she could avoid seeing Ezra.

But Ezra was keen-eyed and saw her immediately, then he caught up with her.

Some of the staff stayed to watch them since Ezra had been so high-profile in showing his love. Ezra was running after her and she just couldn't keep avoiding him.

She paused her steps, stared at him, and said in a low voice, "I've made myself very clear. Don't cross the boundary!"

"Are you sure you wanna talk about it right here right now?" Ezra narrowed his eyes and said it. Maisie glanced at the gossiping crowd not far away and stopped talking but pursed her lips.

Ezra simply threw the roses into her arms and took her hand. Then they walked over to get in the car and drove away.

Maisie sat on the front seat and glanced at his slender fingers on the steering wheel. Suddenly, she remembered the great sex they had last night and wondered if his shoulder was fine. But she was cared out by the thought that she even cared about Ezra. And it also scared her out that she just thought of the sex they had last night.

She felt uncomfortable with it and turned to look out through the window.

She lived near the Hughes Group and it took only a short while to drive home.

Maisie got off the car and said immediately, "Thanks for the roses, but don't do it again. Bye!"

She said it and turned to leave. But Ezra stepped forward to stop her. She was disgusted with his smile.

"Can't I just go and see Ezio?" Ezra asked her calmly and peacefully.

Maisie gritted her teeth and decided to let him go upstairs with her.

She wasn't sure if he really wanted to see Ezio, but she just couldn't keep rejecting him again and again.

They went back to the apartment together. As soon as Maisie entered the room, she saw a suitcase in the living room. She knew it belonged to Ezra.

She found it unbelievable and turned to glare at him. Ezra shrugged, "You insisted on moving out, so I have to move in with you."

"I'll follow you wherever you and Ezio go from now on," Ezra said and put on the slippers to make himself at home.

Maisie was too mad to say anything. No wonder he had been so calm the whole day! It turned out that he had planned it.

Daisy came over and made the confession, "Sorry, Maisie. I kept it from you for Mr. Cantillo."

Daisy's words calmed Maisie down a bit. She shook her head and said, "It's fine. Never mind."

She knew Ezra would come up with other lousy ideas to bother her even though Daisy didn't hold it out for him.

With the thought in mind, Maisie raised her eyes to see Ezra holding Ezio in his arms, and said earnestly, "Let's talk in the study."

Ezra agreed and gave little Ezio to Daisy. Then he followed her to the study.

"I must make myself clear one more time since you're acting against your words," said Maisie, straightforwardly. She finally saw it through that Ezra was gonna eat his words.

They had a deal in Grafstin that they got married only to seek revenge on Diana and they lived together in his house only because of Wenninger. But he just acted as if nothing had happened. So, she had no choice but to put it bluntly.

"I've said long ago that I didn't intend to keep our marriage even though we had sex last night..." Maisie said and paused, then she looked away, "We're not twelve years old. So, just merry meet, merry part." Ezra held her waist with one arm and pressed her to the wall behind her. But he wasn't mad. Instead, he stared at her beautiful eyes and brows and asked, "You want to reject me? Tell me why."

He was kind of self-mocking, "Everyone in Riverside City knows you're my wife but now you want to divorce me. We've announced our marriage to the public for a few days only. How can you embarrass me like that?"

"Let go of me first," Maisie said and lifted her hand to push him away.

"No!" fumed Ezra. He finally got a bit angry till now.

"It won't work out between us," said Maisie.

"How?" Ezra asked again.

"Personality," said Maisie.

"How come?" Ezra stayed unmoved and kept asking. Maisie pursed her lips and quieted down.

Why did he have to make her put it bluntly?

"You love playing around and it's hard for you to settle down. But I love to settle down." Maisie thought it over and replied to him like that.

"Just say it out. You mean I won't love you forever and I will cheat on you later!" fumed Ezra.

Maisie lowered her eyes and admitted that was exactly what she meant.

She was restrained and calm. She would be devoted to it for a long time once she started a relationship or got married. But Ezra was totally different.

Ezra lifted her face and said, "You won't believe it if I just say I love you."

"So, I have to prove my love and care for you in action." Ezra said and came closer to her, "I am not gonna divorce you or separate with you. I'll stick with you for a lifetime. I think you'll believe my love for you is real when we're too old to move."

Ezra said it and held her head possessively, then kissed her hard on the lips.
