There He Is Again My Ex Husband

Chapter 930

Daisy picked up the phone soon. Maisie asked, "Daisy, did Ezio and you move out?"

Daisy replied with a bright chuckle, "Yes, we did. Mr. Cantillo lets the driver drive us home."

Maisie was a little surprised. Could Ezra be obliging?

"And…" Maisie added, "Did he say anything?" Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

"Nope," Daisy had promised Ezra to help him keep the secret.

Although Daisy felt that she was not allowed to do that as Maisie's nanny, she was out of hope that Maisie and Ezra could get along well. So, she decided to "betray" Maisie this time.

"Okay." Maisie did not find anything wrong in Daisy's relaxed response and she sighed with relief.

Then Daisy reminded Maisie on the phone, "I only brought part of Ezio's and my luggage. I did not pack up yours upstairs."

"Got it," Maisie also thought of it. "I'll buy those things when I need them."

Daisy did not say anything else. She just thought it was such a pity and a waste to leave boxes of clothes Ezra bought for Maisie there. Each piece of clothes was good-looking and suitable for Maisie. To Daisy's surprise, Ezra did have an eye for clothes.

After Maisie ended the call with Daisy, she checked the records of calls and chats and found Ezra did not contact her at all. She felt something was wrong.

Normally, Ezra would call her and quarrel with her. Why was he so calm this time?

The next second, Maisie thought, he might also acquiesce in the fact that they were parted, so he simply did not contact her; after all, these days of mutual peace were based on acting for Nancy.

Or he acquiesced in the view that what happened last night was just an adult game when they were drunk and out of control. It was not a big deal.

She put away her phone and continued to work as she thought about the two possibilities. It was good to be at peace and not to disturb each other.

Because it was her first day of work, Maisie was buried in lots of work in the morning. The young man who handed the work over to her wished her to get everything straight at once so that he could hurry back to his secretary's office, never bearing the high pressure from Julian again.

Maisie was too busy to even have her lunch.

However, Maisie's phone rang as noon approached. It was Ezra. Maisie felt a quiver of worry when she saw the name on the screen.

Maisie did not know what Ezra was thinking about and why he called her now, after his disappearance for a whole morning.

But she picked up the phone. After all, she had run away in the early morning and could not refuse his call now.

Maisie thought that Ezra must be talking to her with a cold face at the other end, but she then heard him ask in a relaxed tone, "Let's have lunch together?"

"What?" Maisie did not expect he would ask her for lunch in such an easy way. She thought she had heard something wrong for a while.

"I mean, are you free at noon? Mrs. Cantillo. Would you like to have lunch together?" Ezra repeated. This time he said in a cheesy tone, which made Maisie feel goosebumps.

"You…" She wanted to ask him "why you're not angry", or "if you understand why I ran away this morning". But she did not know how to start the questions.

Also, she was confused about Ezra's attitude. Thus, she made an excuse to turn him down, "I'm sorry. It's my first day at work and I'm too busy to eat out."

"Okay," Ezra replied in a disappointed tone, but not very unpleasant. "Then just do your work."

Maisie hung up the phone with a tight frown.

Abnormal. Ezra's reaction was too abnormal.

Why did he give up quickly?

But she buried herself in her work afterward, because she was really busy and did not want to have backlogs.

Not long after, David knocked at her door and walked in.

He looked unhappy. "Look. Ezra orders lunch for everyone in the building."

Maisie froze with surprise.

That was why he gave up quickly then. They just ended their call and the lunch was sent here. He must prepare for it early. He was sure she would not eat out with him in this case.

David complained, "He told the restaurant he was your husband. Later, the rumors fly and everyone in the Hughes will know you are in love."

"What?" Maisie could hardly sit still and ran out of her office when David told her the news.

David followed her with disgust. To be honest, David regarded Ezra as a scheming bitch now. Ezra had known Maisie did not want to marry him and live with him, but he displayed his affection in such a high- sounding way.

If Maisie demanded divorce later, she would not achieve it of her own free will.

Maisie helped Ezra handle Roman's funeral when his arm was injured. All important people in Riverside now knew Maisie, David's elder sister, was Ezra's wife.

David gradually realized how scheming Ezra was by the delivered lunch and Ezra's name of "Maisie's husband". He was angry and resentful about Ezra's scheming against his sister.

Maisie came out and found her colleagues were gathering in a nearby conference room, distributing their lunches happily.

A man exclaimed, "Wow, it's the Grandix's lunch box. Fancy!"

Another guy held a cup of coffee and screamed, "Coffee from the Old Time Café?"

"OMG, I feel like I'm at the peak of my life."

"I have to take photos. It is really my best working lunch."

"As far as I'm concerned, these are Mr. Cantillo's restaurant and café. Mr. Cantillo is generous."

Others sniggered, "He is not generous to us, yet to Maisie. We are piggybacking on Maisie."

"That's true." The others echoed the view and then burst out laughing excitedly.

They all knew they were piggybacking on Maisie. Ezra spent lots of money to make the colleagues happy for Maisie's sake.

But it proved, from a sideways perspective, that Maisie and Ezra were good in their marriage - at least, Ezra was willing to spend time and money on her.
