“Son, why did you come back so late?” Madeline didn’t think that Jay was saying that to her. She thought that Jay also thought that Maisy had disturbed him.

Jay ignored her and walked to Maisy’s side first. He was still holding the breakfast that he had just bought, and there was an anxious look on his face. Maisy’s condition
wasn’t good yesterday, and now that Madeline was here, Jay was even more worried. “Are you okay?” Jay asked gently.

“Jay!” Madeline was a little angry. “Why are you still with this woman?! She will destroy you!”

“Mom!” Jay hadn’t received much motherly love since he was young, but now, she actually wanted to interfere in his life? “Don’t interfere in my life. Maisy and I don’t need
you to interfere in our matters.”

Jay’s cold tone stunned Madeline. What had Maisy done to make her son so head over heels in love with her?! “Fine, but you have to find a proper young lady to date.”
Madeline sneered. “Neither your father nor I will agree to let you date someone of her identity.”

“You don’t have to agree,” Jay interrupted her.

“Jay, don’t forget that you still represent the Hamilton family.” Madeline’s expression darkened, but she still maintained her composure as she said, “The woman you deeply
love took a lot of money from me and left. Now that she’s back, she should bring my grandson back for me.”

Maisy was stunned. She had indeed taken the money. “Madam.” Maisy tried her best to sound assured as she said, “I can return the money to you. I had no choice at that
time. But I won’t give you the child.” She said this just to show her attitude, but Jay’s heart suddenly ached.

“Don’t talk anymore.” Jay’s tone was even colder as he said, “I hope you don’t talk about what happened back then. That’s something you should apologize to Maisy about.”
“Me?” Madeline felt taken aback. In Jay’s heart, was she the one who should apologize?

Jay stared at Madeline silently, and she felt exasperated.

“I won’t interfere in your matters anymore!” Madeline’s voice was still a little shaky. “I’ve raised you for so many years, yet you’re treating me like this just for a woman!”
Maisy wanted to ease the atmosphere, but she couldn’t bring herself to say anything.

“Maisy, don’t feel too smug now.” Madeline prepared to leave as she said, “With your status, how much longer can you stay by Jay’s side?”

Before Jay could say anything, she had already left indignantly.

Maisy stood rooted to the ground. No one cared about whether she had become better or not all these years. Everyone only remembered how she was like in the past. They
only knew that Jay was out of her league. No matter how much effort she had put in, the gap between them would never disappear.

“Maisy, sit down and eat first.” Jay’s voice became gentle. “Don’t worry about what they say.”

Maisy followed Jay to the dining table in a daze. She hadn’t fully recovered from what had just happened. Jay knew her preferences like the back of his hand. The breakfast
he bought this time was also her favorite. Maisy felt warmth in her heart, but it wasn’t enough to overshadow the sadness in her heart. She had calmed down, and she could
sense Jay’s gentleness and protection. However, she didn’t think that she could overcome the huge difference in their status..
