Noticing she kept silent, Ezra asked her confusedly, "What's wrong?"
Maisie cast a glance at him. "Don't touch my face."
"Why?" he asked as he stroked her cheeks with his thumb.
Maisie was speechless because he refused to follow her words and touched her face again.
She stepped back and said, "We are adults. Don't behave too intimately and childishly."
He chuckled, wrapped his arm around her waist, and walked towards the car, "You're always a little girl in my heart." said Ezra fondly
"Don't be tough all the time. You can rely on me and your son. When he grows up, he will protect you."
He guessed the reason why she refused his touching. When she was little, no one loved and protected her, so she had to rely on herself.
But now, she was protected and loved by him as well as her son who would grow to be a filial man under her teaching.
Thus, she just needed to live a happy and carefree life.
She didn't respond and just followed him to the car.
In the morning, he would drive her off her company before he went to his own company, which would make him very tired. So Maisie recently drove her own car to work.
He stood in front of her car and suddenly said, "By the way, the new car I bought for you would be delivered this afternoon. We can take a look together."
Maisie was surprised. "What?" He didn't tell her the news before.
Ezra explained, "You need to change it. It's not safe."
"The better the car, the higher the price," she looked at the man and said helplessly. "I don't think I need to change my car."
"You can keep your car and the one I bought. This is my gift to you." Ezra insisted that she should take the car. Noticing her attitude, he didn't dare to tell her for now that he bought a luxury car.
Regardless of what other people would think, he decided to provide her with everything of the best quality as much as possible, including clothes, food and daily necessities.
Maisie wanted to ask him what kind of car he bought for her, but finally stopped asking him, because from his expression, she could guess that the car must be very expensive.
She would still use her own one.
She didn't like too much attention and could not imagine how her colleagues would gossip when they see the luxury car.
At the sight of her expression, he knew she may not drive the new car. Anyway, he would change her mind in ways, such as puncturing her car tire?
He believed she would get used to the new car in one day.
Standing in front of their cars, they said goodbye and drove to work.
Maisie arrived at the company before office hours. David knocked on the door and entered her office.
"I won't go home this Christmas." David cut to the chase. "I'm going to go abroad."
"For Shania?" asked Maisie.
"Yes." David lowered his eyes. "Whether she'll reject me or not, I don't want any regrets in my life."
He would give her up if she still chose to continue her engagement, or if she told him clearly that she no longer loved him.
And the reason why he mustered his courage this time was he was deeply hurt by his family.
Previously, he had been worried that his parents would have conflicts with his future wife. Therefore, he was not gonna get married and his parents could live a peaceful life.
Since now he had seen through his parents, there was no need to sacrifice his happiness for his parents, so he decided to find her. If he got together with her, he would not hesitate to do anything to protect her.
Shania, a thoughtful woman, would never be unreasonable and cause trouble.
Thus, he thought the conflict between his parents and Shania must be his mother's fault
Having been pondered on the matter these days, he finally felt relieved. The other day he went to see a psychiatrist, read a lot of psychology articles, and slowly got rid of negative emotions.
His parents did raise him and his sister, but they didn't share the same values. Simply out of duty, he would take care of his parents when they got old.
Maisie was worried. "You know their tempers. If you don't come home, they'll be furious."
He was usually busy with work and did not go home much. If he didn't go home on Christmas' Eve, his parents would feel very humiliated.
"I only have time on holidays to find Shania. I won't take into account what they think. And i just want them to know that I have the right to pursue my own happiness. If they get in my way, I won't back home." He was firm.
Maisie was naturally supportive of David, because in her opinion he needed to pursue his own happiness
"If you really like her, you need to express your love to her sincerely." She advised.
Then she added, "what you have done has hurt her. When she courted you publicly, you always embarrassed her. I'm afraid, by your wrongdoings, she'll not be moved by you now."
"I see," David replied gloomily and knew how heartbreaking his attitude towards Shania was. Every time he said harsh words to her, he also had a hard time and was sleepless at night.
In fact, he loved Shania but could not show his love due to his family background.
"You will make it," Maisie encouraged him.
Maisie received calls from her parents at noon after David told them his decision.
Knowing her parents' intention, Maisie refused to answer these calls and didn't want to help her money- oriented mother who had disowned her without hesitation for money that Ezra offered.
Maisie felt it funny that her mother who abandoned her for money now asked her for help and kept calling her.
When Ezra came to Maisie's office at noon for lunch, she just impatiently hung up again and planned to blacklist her mother.
