Chapter 425
“Unfortunately, it was too late. Your mother was in the final stages and didn’t have much longer to live, so she
chose to leave.
“However, when she left, Strix gave her the antibody. There were only two in the world, and he gave one to your
mother and kept the other. I think your mother injected the serum before she decided to get pregnant. Otherwise,
your father would have been infected too, and you…”
Erwin looked at her but didn’t continue.
Maisie’s heart shuddered. “So that’s why my blood is special?”
Marina had decided to inject herself with the serum when she was pregnant, even though the serum wouldn’t have

Maisie wouldn’t inherit the virus.
Had she made her decision long ago to try and leave without regrets? But why hadn’t she chosen her first love,
Strix, and instead married Stephen, who she had just met?
“Maisie, remember I told you not to let anyone know about your unique blood condition?” Erwin reminded her.
Maisie nodded and was curious.
Erwin told her, “The virus would not infect you, and the sleeper virus outbreak wasn’t a natural occurrence. People
caused it.”
Maisie returned to the hotel and was still confused.
Cherie saw that she didn’t look well when she picked her up. so she worriedly asked, “Are you alright?”
“Yes.’ Maisie squeezed out a smile.

She left the shower room in a robe and heard someone knocking. She went to open the door while drying her hair

“Not yet. Where did you go?” Maisie looked at him.
“To get some things sorted.” Nolan walked in and closed the door.
Seeing how his pretty little wife was hanging onto him and smelling great after her shower, he raised his brows and
carried her to the couch. She sat on his thighs.
Maisie put her arms around his neck. “What did you do that took so long?” Nolan’s hands were behind her waist. He

Maisie laughed but didn’t deny it. “Didn’t you know that distance makes the heart fonder?”
Nolan squinted while his lips curled. “If you miss me that much, how are you going to show it?”
Maisie blushed. “Your hands are already all over me!”
“Where?” He smiled and continued. He looked happy, his eyes playfully teasing her, but he still sat there, unmoving.
He finally stopped when he saw her curl up in his arms and said in his low, sultry voice, “Aren’t you the one taking
advantage of me now
?”
