Chapter 993 Was She Alright?
Maisie was surprised to see what was inside as she opened the box. “You…”
She actually was no fan of luxury brands. Bags or clothes, she would choose the type that suited her, mostly simple and elegant.
Nina posted a picture of the bag in their group chats earlier. As one of the best-known celebrities, she naturally was a style icon and kept close eyes on the trending goods.
She posted it to ask for their opinions on the bag.
Maisie liked it very much because of its nice look and practicability. It well fitted the need of a working mother who carried her laptop from and to work and also when she took her baby to go out.
However, at that time she just gave some short comments on the bag. To her surprise, Ezra bought it for her. She wondered where he learned that.
“Do you like it?” Ezra looked at her with eager eyes. “I heard that you liked it the other day and immediately asked salespersons to buy it for me. And they delivered it to me today once it was available.”
“Thank you. I like it very much.” Maisie answered.
What really mattered was his thoughtfulness. How could she reject his love anyway?
Her answer greatly pleased the man. He held her and asked, “Any other stuff that you like?”
The fact that Maisie had a low demand for life quality frustrated him. All of his money was meant for the people he cared about, including Maisie, his son and his mother.
But it turned out that she was a non-consumerism. He sadly found nowhere to spend his money.
Still, he could choose to buy things for her since she intrinsically wouldn’t squander money, letting alone buying luxurious products.
Hearing this, Maisie hastily shook her head and said, “I am not short of anything.”
Fearing that he might continue purchasing things, she added, “I knew that you did this for me. But seriously, I will let you know when I need anything.”
Ezra was unhappy, “Will that day ever come?”
Maisie was amused by his look. She said, “Aren’t you afraid that you might spoil me? Which husband would ask his wife to splash out?”
Ezra took her in his arms and said, “I wish I could spoil you because I earned that.”
But she wasn’t a greedy person.
She had her own principles and bottom lines. Under no circumstance should she ever lose herself no matter how many partiality he had for her.
Daisy nearby saw them and walked up the stairs with Benedict, leaving them alone.
Ezra noticed Daisy’s move and held her tighter, “Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day. What is your plan?”
This was their first Valentine’s Day after they got married. Ezra has thought of like hundreds of ways to celebrate it but he still wanted to hear Maisie’s opinions.
Maisie replied, “Tomorrow David and Shania are arriving and I was thinking about having dinner with them.”
Ezra was dumb.
How could he forget the date of David and Shania coming back?
The only flaw in an otherwise perfect plan. If they had dinner together in the evening, there wouldn’t be any romantic valentine celebration.
Having a dinner was part of the plan. The romantic atmosphere would be ruined if others joined them.
At the thought of this, Ezra was deeply aggrieved.
He disclosed what was between David and Shania, which obliquely led to them getting back together. However, David had no sense of gratitude at all.
David must know that tomorrow was Valentine’s Day. He knowingly picked this date to thwart his plan.
As much as he was disgruntled, he should invite David and Shania to dinner according to the traditions.
And he was well aware of the importance of David to Maisie. He let out a sigh and said, “Fine. We will have dinner with them tomorrow. Sorry that I forgot their arrival.”
Maisie knew his planning. She approached closer to him to give him a kiss and soothed, “People often said that each day that you spend with your lover is Valentine’s Day. We don’t need to celebrate it since we are together and every day is happy Valentine’s Day.”
“Really?” Ezra admittedly loved to hear that. Her acknowledgment of happiness was the greatest feedback to him.
“Of course.” Maisie flashed him a look.
Ezra beamed with pleasure and lowered to kiss her.
When Maisie thought that Ezra has over the Valentine’s Day stuff, Ezra surprisingly used the excuse of celebrating Valentine’s Day beforehand to have wild sex with her in the night.
Maisie highly suspected that the man was going to use the trick more than once. It might be safer if she kicked Ezra out of the bedroom in tomorrow’s night.
In Valentine’s Day, Phil paid a visit to Lorie who was in the hospital with a bunch of flowers.
He came over once or twice a week when he and Anya hadn’t been divorced. Now he came almost every day.
He sat by the bed and shared her with his day, especially how much he missed Anya, despite no feedback from Lorie.
He wished that Lorie could answer him. But even if without response, he would continue the talking.
He met Emelia and Maisie in the hospital who was going to visit Lorie on Anya’s behalf.
That Phil came to hospital everyday was not new to Emelia and Maisie. But both of them didn’t mention this to Anya. As a matter of fact, they reached consensus that they should never bring about anything relevant to Phil for the best of Anya.
They should be silent bystanders now that Anya had departed to another country.
Finding Anya was Phil’s concern. They would never refer to Phil if Anya didn’t ask about him.
Phil came up to them with flowers. This was the first time they met after Anya left this country. He tried to walk away at first but after a few steps he stepped back and asked in low voice, “Is she alright?”
Emelia answered him, “Good. She settles now.”Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
“Thank you.” Phil didn’t ask another question and he walked into the ward of Lorie after showing his thanks.
