Jay remained silent. He knew that he wouldn’t give Maisy her identity, but deep down, he wanted Maisy to stay. He understood his own selfishness.

Maisy held her forchead helplessly and massaged the space between her eyebrows. The frustration in her heart couldn’t be dispelled. “I don’t want status. I just want you to let me go. I will return the money to you. Do you understand what I mean?” Maisy straightened out her train of thoughts and said.

It was impossible for her to abort the child now. She would rather take the child away and give money to Jay on a regular basis than stay by Jay’s side. It could be considered fulfilling her dead grandfather’s wishes. Would her grandfather feel happier if she was freed? He was already dead. It was useless to
say anything more. She could only hope that her grandfather could sense her sincerity in heaven.

“You can leave after giving birth to your child. I’l allow you to move around freely,” Jay said as he made his final concession. He didn’t understand what was wrong with him. The moment Maisy mentioned that she wanted to leave, he was completely flustered. This wasn’t like him at all.

Maisy didn’t answer. It could be considered that she had tacitly agreed with Jay’s suggestion. She didn’t continue to stay in the hospital. Instead, she quickly adjusted her emotions and prepared for her grandfather’s funeral. The cremation of her body was the day after tomorrow, so she had to go.
personally.

For the sake of Maisy’s health, Jay had hired a nanny for Maisy. He took care of everything for Maisy. Maisy was numb to it. Every time she saw Jay come back, her face was blank. No matter what Jay did, she would accept it all. The only difference was that she didn’t blush nor did her heart race. She was
like a numbed corpse.

Two days passed very quickly. Maisy was dressed in black. She sat in the car in a daze as she headed to the funeral parlor. Money could make the world go round. Even when he was buried, it was so grand. When Maisy saw her grandfather’s corpse being pushed into the crematorium, she finally couldn’t
suppress her emotions, Tears flew down her face. The nanny was supporting Maisy so Maisy didn’t collapse.

Finally, the small box was handed to Maisy. She didn’t even have the strength to hold the box tightly. How could a normal person become a box in the end? No one dared to make a sound. Jay also stood by the side and patted Maisy’s back a few times.
“You guys can go first. I need to be alone for a while,” Maisy said dejectedly. She handed the umn to the funeral home staff and walked out alone. Jay had arranged for someone to keep an eye on Maisy from a distance.

Maisy found a quiet place to sit down. On sad days, the weather was always gloomy. When she looked up, there were thick clouds, and she couldn’t see the sunlight that was blocked by the clouds. She rubbed her swollen temples. As long as she gave birth to the child, she would have nothing to do with Jay
anymore. Maisy felt her vision go black and she couldn’t even stand properly. A second later, she fell into a warm embrace. It was Collin.

“You’re tired. You should take a good rest,” Collin said gently. When Jay’s men saw this, they immediately reported the situation to Jay. After they finished, the two of them disappeared.
After Maisy heard what Collin said, she fainted in Collin’s arms. When she woke up again, she found that her hands and feet were tied, and there was tape on her mouth. Her pupils suddenly dilated. Was she… kidnapped?

Collin had the appearance of a gentleman. He held a beautiful rose in his hand. Suddenly, all the petals were plucked by him, leaving only a flower branch. “What an idiot. She didn’t even know that she was being deceived..”
