"You..." Daniel's throat tightened. "What do you want to write about?"
"I don't know." Maisie smiled innocently, her soft hair nuzzling his chin. The sweet fragrance of her body wafted
toward his nose.
Daniel struggled to control himself, afraid to expose his feelings. He coughed discreetly to hide his embarrassment
and gently pushed her away just a little, making sure not to give himself away.
"Well, if I do write a , I don't want to write about such a tragic story. I want to write about us," Maisie said,
raising her head to look at him.
"About us?"

"What about the times I wasn't good to you?"
"When have you not been good to me?"
Daniel felt a pang of guilt and hugged her.
"In the past..." he murmured. He had genuinely mistreated her in the past. He had treated her like a pet,
summoning her whenever he pleased and disregarding her when he didn't.
He had no idea how Maisie had managed to endure those harrowing days, living meekly and fearfully by his side.
She had not forgotten her love for him or their child, even during those crazy, forgetful moments.
"Hmm?" Maisie seemed puzzled. "What do you mean 'in the past'?"
"It's nothing," Daniel said, planting a light kiss on her forehead. He smiled and said, "If you want to write, I'll support
you fully."
"Thank you," Maisie replied. "But I already have someone supporting me—a professional!"
"Who is it?"
"Well..." Maisie blinked mysteriously. "I'll keep it a secret for now."
Daniel had a good idea who this professional was—most likely, Lily. He only hoped she wouldn't cause any trouble,
like Amanda had.
Thanks to the evidence provided by Lily and Leroy's testimony, Amanda was soon taken in for questioning by the
relevant authorities. Besides the fact that she had impersonated someone else to leak exam questions, the
numerous false reports she had published had caused the stock value of the Cumulus Morning Post to plummet,
nearly driving the company to the brink of closure. And yet, Amanda was still fantasizing about Lily eliminating

While Amanda was detained at the police station, she still held on to the delusion that Lily would come to her
rescue. When Lily finally showed up, she was dressed in black, she was wearing sunglasses, and she exuded an
aura that was both intimidating and formidable. It didn't look like a rescue mission. Instead, it seemed like she was
there to deliver Amanda to hell.
"Ms. Reyes!" Amanda appeared nervous. "Did you bring a lawyer? How will they defend me?"
"Ms. Winslade," Lily sneered, gazing at her with a trace of mockery. "Even now, you're thinking about having
someone defend you?"
"Well..."
"You still consider me your ally?" Lily's tone was dripping with sarcasm. "Amanda, what on earth made you think I
would form an alliance with you?"
