The Billionaire's Pet Bride Novel - Chapter 99

Chapter 99: When Will We Leave

Since she had already decided to resign, Maisy didn’t want to drag it out, so she made an appointment with Bruce for the evening. “When the time comes, you can go pick up Lucas. I will go to the company to chat with Bruce.” Maisy had already made all the arrangements. Jay really wanted to accompany her, after all, he had always been worried about Bruce. However, he was afraid that Maisy would think too much about it, so he had to ask her to meet him at the cafe at the entrance of the neighborhood.

“Alright, don’t worry. You can ask Lucas to bring me home later, okay?” Maisy coaxed Jay, as if she was coaxing a child. Jay nodded and left with relief.

When Maisy asked him out, Bruce was quite happy. Ever since they had known each other, Bruce had always taken the initiative to ask Maisy out. This time, it was finally time for her to take the initiative. As soon as Maisy entered the door, she saw Bruce sitting by the window and she smiled at him. “You came so early?” She said in surprise.

‘When you told me, I had just left the company, so I drove straight here.” Bruce’s tone was very gentle. At the mention of the company, Maisy suddenly felt a little guilty. “Bruce, I came to look for you today because there’s actually something I need to tell you,” she said a little helplessly.

‘What is it?” “1’m preparing to go to the capital.” Maisy and Bruce looked at each other. “So, I’ll be leaving this week.” Bruce felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over him. Bruce, who was very happy just a moment ago, was completely stunned now. Maisy was leaving? “Can you tell me why?” Bruce’s eyes were gloomy, and his tone was very downcast.

“1t’s mainly for Lucas.” Maisy sighed. If it was for herself, she wouldn’t have followed Jay back to the capital. “The education system here is unable to allow Lucas to reach his potential. He’s very smart and has been working very hard. I hope that I can give him a better education within my ability.”

Bruce thought that it was for Jay, but when he heard that it was for Lucas, he heaved a sigh of relief. “Since it has been decided, there is no reason for me to try to make you stay.” Bruce smiled in relief. “However, I must send you off.”

His reaction made Maisy heave a sigh of relief. “1 will hand over all my tasks to a successor in the near future!” Maisy was reinvigorated. “I will treat everyone to a meal.” Bruce nodded with a smile and chatted with Maisy for a while. When he thought about how he was going to lose the opportunity, some ideas flashed through Bruce’s mind.

‘Mom!” Lucas called out softly and walked to the two of them. “Mr. Smith, I’m going to take mom home.”

Maisy said goodbye to Bruce with a smile. The moment she stepped out of the door, she saw Jay, who had an unpleasant look on his face. “Okay, I’m going home now.” She tugged at Jay’s sleeve. After Jay confirmed that Bruce had seen him, he frowned provocatively. “Let’s go.” He held the hand of the woman beside him.

Lucas quickly accepted the fact that he was going to leave this place and he appeared very calm. “I’ll go wherever Mom and Dad go,” Lucas said with a smile. Maisy touched his head. This child was really too sensible.

‘ISO, when are we leaving?” Jay felt a little upset when he saw Bruce today.

“Next week. Bruce is going to throw a farewell banquet for me.” Maisy smiled. “Let’s leave after that.” Jay narrowed his eyes. She was going to leave, but he still wanted to cause trouble? “Okay, I’ll go with you then.”

Maisy wanted to refuse, but seeing Jay’s expectant look, she agreed.
