Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart

Chapter 931 Pick You Up after Work

For a moment, it was hilarious in the conference room.

Some of the staff took selfies with the coffee and lunch and posted them on their Facebook pages.

Some couldn't wait to taste the food. And some just shared the jolly moment.

Maisie came into the conference room in the hustle and bustle. The staff burst into laughter and began

making fun of her, "Oh dear Maisie, we've got a fancy meal today and witnessed Mr. Cantillo showing

off his affection on you!"

Maisie had been single for many years. She had a relationship with Ezra back then but they kept it from

the public, which meant she had never been made fun of on the love things. So, she blushed.

"Well..." she tried to explain but didn't know where to start.

She literally couldn't tell them that she and Ezra was actually not a happy and loving couple as they

saw, or she literally couldn't tell them that their marriage was fake, either.

One of the co-workers came over to take her hand and pointed at the other takeaway food on the table,

"Here, Maisie. This one is custom-made for you with your name on it. It must be much more delicious,

but we get it."

Maisie was pulled to the conference table and David came in behind her back.

Then the co-workers began making fun of David, "Mr. Brennan, this one is for you. Look at how lucky

you are! "

"Hush!" David rolled his eyes and looked disdainful. He stepped forward to pick up the meal and coffee

then turned around to leave. He took Julian's lunch as well and brought it to his office.

Fuck the brother-in-law! He hated it and took it as a burning shame on him!

Then, only Maisie and the other co-workers were left in the conference room. Most of the time, Maisie

wasn't much of a talker herself but everyone knew she had a good temper. So, they invited her, "Would

you like to join us for lunch?"

Maisie sat down with complicated feelings. She was annoyed with Ezra now. He bought lunch for

everyone in the office. And she couldn't explain it clearly though she hoped to.

She could tell from their faces that they thought they were a very sweet couple.

She opened the lunch box and the co-worker sitting next to her cried out, "Whoa! It's surely much more

delicious than ours!"

"No, it isn't," said Maisie, and she found nothing special on it.

"I guess, these are Maisie's favorite dishes." one of the elder co-workers said firmly as if she had been

there. Then she looked forward to Maisie's reply.

"Indeed!" said Maisie, nodding her head.

She wasn't good at lying and it was true that the dishes in the lunch box were her favorite, and that was

why her lunch box looked different from the others.

Again, the staff burst out laughing, which embarrassed Maisie more. She lowered her head to eat and

tried to finish eating as soon as possible. Then, she got out of the conference room. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

She returned to the office and wanted to call Ezra. She wanted to ask him why he did that but she just

thought he would give her crap. She was tired of it and gave up making the call.

Almost everyone in the company heard Ezra had bought lunch for her and all the office workers on the

top floor right before they clocked out in the afternoon. And most staff in the Hughes Group agreed they

were deeply in love with each other.

Maisie felt deeply troubled and annoyed when she heard the news from the young secretary. What

made it worse was that David came to her office when she was working overtime.

"What's up?" said Maisie, confused.

"Have you read the messages in the company chat group?" said David, still looking despised.

"I've been busy all day long. I haven't got a minute to read it yet." Maisie said and looked at the pile of

documents and papers beside her desk.

David passed his phone to her and said, "Ezra is making another stir. He's waiting for you to get off

work downstairs with a bouquet of roses!"

"What?" Maisie was desperate and raised her head to take over David's phone.

She saw a photo of Ezra in the company chat group. In the photo, he was wearing a tailored suit and a

woolen overcoat since it was winter. He looked dashing and outstanding.

With a bouquet of red roses in his arms, he was leaning against the car idly and waiting for her.

"Oh, Jeez! Mr. Cantillo is so romantic!"

"He bought her lunch and came to pick her up after work. Oh, he's really a perfect husband!"

"I'm really curious. What has Maisie done to make him so sweet and obedient?"

Thanks to Diana and Ruth, Ezra was well-known as a notorious rich fuckboy in Riverside City. But the

onlookers saw how he showed off his love to Maisie and how devoted he had been to her, so they

couldn't help being curious.

Maisie saw the photo and went through the comments in the chat group, then she hastily returned the

phone to David.

What the hell was wrong with him?

Maisie was freaked out. She grabbed the phone and called Ezra regardless of it.

Ezra picked up the phone instantly and said with a smiling voice, "Are you off now, Mrs. Cantillo?"

"What the hell are you doing, Ezra?" said Maisie, pissed off.

"I am here to pick you up," said Ezra innocently.

Maisie took a deep breath and calmed herself down, "I've moved out. I thought you've got what I

meant."

"I didn't get it." Ezra played dumb, "What did you want to tell me?"

She must admit that she couldn't do much with him since he had played the fool. "What a cunning and

tricky guy!" she cursed him in mind. Did he really have to make her put it straightforwardly?

She pursed her lips and said, "We're grown-ups. We just made a mistake after drinking last night. I

think we'd better keep each other at arm's length."

Maisie didn't get mad, but simply roasted her, "I didn't expect you to be like this. You did it but you

dared not to admit it."

"No way!" Maisie was kinda annoyed. She didn't deny what had happened last night. How could he say

that to her?

Ezra explained carefully to her, "Dare to do it and dare to admit it. That's the right thing to do. But you

slept with me last night and walked away. What was that?"

Maisie was lost for words.

"Just get out of here. I'll work late tonight." Maisie didn't feel like talking with him anymore and tried to

make up an excuse to kick him away.

But she told the truth as well. She had a lot of crap to do today and probably, she would have to work

overtime till midnight.

However, when she finished talking, she saw Julian walk into her office, "So much for today. Go home

early. You've got a baby at home now and you must take care of him. Stop hustling all the time!"

Before she could say anything in reply, she heard Ezra talking complacently on the phone, "Mr. Hughes

told you to go home. Get down. I'm waiting for you here."

Obviously, Ezra had heard Julian's words clearly.
