There He Is Again, My Ex-Husband (Julian and Amelia)

Chapter 813 Misunderstanding

When Maisie mentioned her poor family, Ezra deeply realized that she was seized with sadness after

Ezra told his father how he disdained Maisie's humble background.

Deep in thought, Ezra was greeted by a passing doctor respectfully. "Hello, Mr. Cantillo."

Maisie turned around with her phone in her hand. But she just noticed someone quickly left from the

corner of the corridor.

Full of mockery, she realized Ezra had heard all she said since she didn't hide her true feeling or

lowered her voice.

Ezra and Maisie hated each other. Naturally, they should never see each other.

After ending the talking on the phone with Emelia, Maisie returned to the ward to take care of David.

When having afternoon tea with Diana, Mrs. Marshall complained about Maisie.

Diana sneered. "Why would your daughter argue with such a skanky woman? Why didn't you stop

her?"

Seemingly regarding Mrs. Marshall as her close friend, Diana actually belittled Mrs. Marshall and

always condescended to her in all her dealings since they were young.

Diana's words and behaviors were full of condescension. Gradually, Mrs. Marshall held more grudges

for Diana and avenged herself on Diana by sleeping with Roman, a playboy.

Every time staying with Roman, Mrs. Marshall would feel gloat at the thought of Diana's condescension

and guessed that Diana would turn depressed if Erika managed to get married to Ezra.

Failing to get any comfort from Diana, Mrs. Marshall could not visit Roman in the hospital, so she called

him for solace.

After Roman comforted her for a long time, Mrs. Marshall felt much better.

Though Mrs. Marshall didn't know who help Maisie, Roman easily found the person's identity and

called his son, "You have told me before that you disliked Maisie. So why do you protect her this time?"

Ezra mocked. "Is that Mrs. Marshall's pillow talk?"

"Calm down. Since you just recover, don't wallow in sexual pleasure."

"Bastard, what are you talking about?" Anger crept over Roman after his son deliberately laughed at

him for the so-called sexual pleasure. How could a sick person enjoy that?

Ezra added, "Protect her? Of course not. I just don't want to take the responsibility."

"Erika is just a fool. How could a normal woman do such a silly thing?" Ezra ridiculed.

Then he added, "By the way, I have a piece of news for you. I ruined their business deal."

Roman was bursting with anger. "Ezra, are you crazy? They have been reduced to a miserable

situation. You even ruined their business deal."

"They should pay the price of what their spoiled daughter did," Ezra replied solemnly.

Roman roared, "You said you weren't protecting Maisie?"

"Right, I didn't. And I just could not bear Erika's arrogance and condescension, especially her bullying

others."

Roman took a deep breath and knew his son's move was reasonable since Erika made trouble first to

provoke Maisie. Besides, Erika wasn't important to Ezra. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Roman collected himself and persuaded his son. "But think about your sister, Linda. What would she

do if you destroyed her family?"

With a weak constitution, Linda needed to spend a lot on medical care. If her family went bankrupt,

Linda could not cover her own medical expense.

Roman could not give Linda money directly or take care of her when he was hospitalized. He worried

about how Linda lived her life if he passed away.

These words rendered Ezra paused. He taunted, "Think about my sister? If I remember correctly, you

had a couple of sisters for me out there? How can I take care of all my sisters when I have to do my

own business?"

Roman was so angry that he almost fainted.

It took Roman quite a while to calm down and cursed weakly on the phone, "Bastard. You are crazy."

However, Ezra hung up without hesitation. Roman threw his phone away and leaned on the bed,

feeling hopeless and wondering why he had Ezra, his only son, and a recalcitrant guy.

Roman thought that his unruly son might be spelled by Maisie with some magical tricks.

He didn't believe that Maisie who had been living a poor and miserable life would do nothing to win a

rich man's heart after she sized a chance.

Many women courted Roman for his money these years. Clearly knowing these women were gold

diggers, Roman included Maisie as one of those women.

Then Roman asked his nursing worker to find Maisie and arranged a meeting with her.

Maisie agreed to meet him. She had done nothing wrong and was not afraid to meet him.

Roman came straight to the point. "What do you want?"

Maisie raised her eyebrow. "What do you mean?"

"Are you still in touch with my son?"

"No," Maisie directly denied.

Roman frowned. "Why did he protect you?"

"You should ask your son about it."

Surprised by her answer, Roman stared at her and realized his guess was wrong after noticing Maisie

was overflowing with disdain for his son.

In the past, Roman thought Maisie would never give up on a rich man but now he had to change his

opinion of her.
