Knowing his implications instantly, Maisie realized that Roman mistook Maisie for one of those women
who kept pestering his son.
Full of mockery, Maisie replied, "I never want to pester you son. I'm up for nothing. Don't worry. Ezra
could not give me what I want."
Maisie wanted a relationship as faithful either as Emelia and Julian or as Nina and Cameron.
She had aspirations for a positive relationship with her mother-in-law and a harmonious home
environment that was completely different from the toxic family where she had been living in her
childhood.
Then Maisie went away, leaving Roman alone in the ward.
Roman sensed Maisie's honesty judging from her serious expressions.
At the thought of his son offering Maisie help and might love her, Roman gasped in shock.
Before Roman ruminated on this matter, Mrs. Marshall called him and complained in a crying voice that
Ezra ruined their business deal.
Totally irritated by all kinds of trivia, Roman answered impatiently. "He is mad. Ask Erika not to provoke
him."
Mrs. Marshall cried on the phone, "How about the business?"
"You can do nothing but accept the reality," Roman added, "I'm in the hospital, not the company."
Mrs. Marshall cried devastatingly. "He is ruthless and makes us suffer serious financial loss. Erika didn't
bully Maisie and was humiliated by her in the end."
"Why don't you teach your son a lesson when he protects that woman?" Mrs. Marshall whined.
Roman was seething with anger and could do nothing to separate Maisie from Ezra when they showed
no feelings for each other.
Roman had to warn Mrs. Marshall, "I'm in the hospital and cannot control everything. You should
remember, don't irritate him or all of you will pay the price."
After Roman hung up the phone, Mrs. Marshall wailed and slapped Erika.
Fuming at her mother's slapping, Erika jumped from the sofa and bellowed, "Why do you hit me?"
"Why?" Mrs. Marshall was devoured by wrath. "As you messed around, our family suffered financial Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
loss and I was mocked by Diana for I didn't discipline you."
"Do you know how angry I was when she taunted me?"
"I have told you before, don't provoke Maisie. Now, everything goes wrong after you made trouble."
Being scolded by her mother, Erika covered her face and turned away.
Erika didn't expect that Ezra would ruin her family business and thus she got annoyed.
"Don't make trouble. Though you can't get married to Ezra, we can find another excellent man among
numerous men in Riverside. Stay away from Ezra. He's crazy." Mrs. Marshall was sullen and warned
her daughter.
Though Mrs. Marshall knew how dangerous Ezra was, Erika, a spoiled daughter, didn't learn from this
lesson this time.
Erika sneaked out of home and took a taxi to Canuli to find Ezra.
The receptionist stopped her but then had to follow the president's order after reporting Erika's arrival.
Erika didn't find Ezra in his office and was told by his secretary that Ezra was on the top floor.
Erika had to take the elevator to the top floor.
She saw Ezra sitting alone beside a round table with a cup of coffee on it, and he was staring blankly
into the distance.
In autumn, the weather became a little cold. It was not pleasant to drink coffee on a windy top floor.
Erika wore very little and shivered with cold when she reached the top floor and cursed Ezra in her
heart.
Erika asked menacingly as she walked to a stop in front of him in high heels, "Why did you ruin my
family business?"
Ezra cast a glance at her. "Because you provoked me."
Erika snorted, "When? I just had a problem with Maisie. Didn't you two break up?"
Close to him, Erika was enchanted by his handsome face and clear-cut figure.
Though everyone asked Erika to give up on Ezra, she still could not resist his charm.
She blurted out, "Do you love her?"
Ezra chuckled. "Though we break up, you could not bully her."
Before she said more, Ezra's face turned grave instantly, making Erika sacred.
"I agree to meet you today and want to tell you, stay away from me and everyone around me.
Otherwise, you will have a bad day." His gaze was full of hostility. She compressed her lips in fear.
Then Erika asked full of unwillingness. "Why do you..."
Before Erika finished speaking, suddenly Ezra rose from his chair, grabbed her by the collar, and pulled
her to the edge of the roof. Erika almost fainted after looking down at the ground.
Ezra pinned Erika against the railing of the roof, and if he let go, she would fall to the ground.
Erika was on the verge of screaming but failed to shout due to anxiety.
Ezra whispered in her ear indifferently, "Remember I almost strangled you in the cafe?"
Erika gasped in pain while recalling the horrible scenes last time.
She actually forgot it and didn't admit that Ezra treated her ruthlessly due to her feelings for him.
Last time, Erika believed that Ezra would not hurt her when she was with her best friends. But now she
was frightened since they were alone on the roof.
"Now, you are scared?" Ezra looked at her pale face with contempt and then warned with a cold smile,
"Erika, if you don't take my words seriously, I will show no mercy to you next time. You will know if I will
kill you."
He shook his head and corrected, "No. I won't kill you but torture you and your families. It would be
interesting when all of you could not stand suffering and beg me for mercy one by one."
