My ex-husband is in love with me (FULL)

Chapter 354 Didn't Expect It to Hurt So Much

Since Maisie had made up her mind, David couldn't change it but only compromise.

"You must promise me not to give them so much money, Maisie. You also can't buy them whatever they

want," he reminded his sister.

Their parents had taken too much money from Maisie all through the years. In their hometown, their

parents had become the richest.

Julian gave the apartments to David and Maisie as gifts, so neither of them had loans. However, Maisie

didn't have much savings, as their parents had taken almost all of her money. She took the initiative to

give their parents some, and their parents also asked for money from her with all kinds of excuses.

Those excuses were unreasonable, but Maisie still gave money to them.

David used to convince her, but Maisie expressionlessly told him that the money was useless to her.

However...

David had a bad hunch. He guessed that Maisie wouldn't be in love with any other man in the future.

She used to date Ezra, a "perfect" man in many senses. How would she fall in love with others?

If she wanted to live all by herself, she must have some savings. That was why David kept reminding

her to save money.

"I got it, David," Maisie nodded in agreement.

She had done more than enough for her parents and family. In the future, she decided to live for

herself.

She cast down her eyes at her lower abdomen in silence. After all, she had a goal to fight for.

Julian and David had to leave after talking to Maisie for a while, but Emelia stayed. She wanted to

accompany Maisie longer. Also, she would help Maisie pack.

Julian was pretty angry with Ezra. He had planned to spend the rest of the day with Emelia. Primarily,

he had intended to dine with Emelia in the evening.

However, since Maisie was upset, he had to let Emelia accompany her.

After seeing Julian and David out, Emelia started to help Maisie pack.

Maisie refused her first, but Emelia forcibly pressed her down for a rest. Maisie felt touched and

helpless.

Leaning against the bedhead, she looked at Emelia, busy packing, and said apologetically, "I know you

are all afraid I'll be upset.

"In fact, as I said, I had been well-prepared to be with him. I've expected this ending before. Please

don't worry for me, Emelia."

She just hadn't expected to have a baby and been hurt so much by Ezra.

Emelia paused a bit. Raising her head, she looked at Maisie, who faked being calm, and said with a

sigh, "Did you know why I didn't ask you to recover before leaving?"

Maisie was confused. "Why?"

"Because I recalled my feelings when I got a divorce back then." Emelia looked at her intensely. "So, I

know how much you've been hurt, Maisie.

"You don't need to pretend to be strong in my presence. If you are upset, just tell me or cry out aloud."

Emelia hit the nail on the head to expose Maisie's real feelings. The latter was taken aback for a

moment. Then she shed tears.

Emelia sat on the bed edge and hugged her. On her shoulder, Maisie choked between sobs. "Emelia,

I've never expected to be hurt so much. My heart must be broken into millions of pieces."

"I know how you feel, sweetie," Emelia comforted her gently.

After she smashed the divorce agreement onto Julian's face, she went to Nina and wept with her.

"Go ahead to cry. Then you'll feel much better."

Maisie hugged Emelia back, bursting into tears.

She came out of the poor village step by step, stood out to become Julian's special assistant through

the cruel battlefield-like workplace, and had been brought up by mean, ruthless parents. She had

always thought that she was mentally strong.

However, no matter how strong she was, she couldn't win against love without a happy ending.

The man she loved didn't love her. She felt so hurt when realizing it.

Maisie cried for a while, her eyes becoming reddish, but her mood became much better.

Emelia continued to help her pack. Maisie picked up her laptop and sorted out her jobs, getting ready Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

for the job transfer.

When it was almost dinner time, Emelia had nearly finished packing for her.

Maisie didn't plan to take too many things. She only needed some clothes and necessities. Two

suitcases would be enough for them. She planned to buy other stuff after arriving in Grafstin.

"Let's have dinner here. I'll cook your favorite dishes," said Emelia sincerely, "It's the least I can do as a

friend."

"Aren't you tired, Emelia?" Maisie felt embarrassed. Emelia had been helping her pack for a half-day,

but now she had to cook.

Emelia smiled and shook her head. "No, I'm not. Besides, cooking is just a piece of cake for me. I can

do it quickly."

During the three years she was married to Julian, Maisie treated her well. Also, she helped Emelia a

lot. Emelia didn't know what she could do for Maisie, so she decided to cook for her to thank her.

"Okay. I'll order some ingredients on the phone."

When Maisie was shopping for ingredients online, Emelia received a call from Julian.

Julian invited Emelia on the phone, "Shall we have dinner together tonight?"

Emelia said honestly, "I'm afraid I can't. I'll have the farewell dinner with Maisie in her apartment."

Julian asked, "Can I join you?"

He knew Emelia would cook, so he wanted to eat her dishes. He hadn't enjoyed her cooking for a long

time.

Emelia refused, "I don't think it's a good idea. It's a girls' night tonight."

Earlier, when Jean learned Maisie would leave Riverside City the following day, she also called them

and said she would come to check on Maisie after work. Emelia and Maisie decided to keep her for

dinner. Hence, it would be inappropriate for Julian to join them.

Julian felt quite frustrated. "Okay. Have fun."

Emelia could hear the complaint from his tone. However, she didn't intend to change her mind.

She didn't want to meet him or dine with him in their current relationship.

Jean came to Maisie's apartment after knocking off. As a professional psychological doctor, Jean

directly said to Maisie, "Why do you have to fall in love with a man? A woman should learn to love

herself. Why should we love those childish men who don't know how to cherish love?

"Find a man if you have the physical needs. Forget about them when you don't need them."

Emelia was amused. While stirring the thing in the pot, she said, "Did you sleep with Arthur based on

this idea?"

Jean threw up her hands. "Yep. I didn't expect to get into trouble after sleeping with him. He keeps

giving me a hard time every day."

She wouldn't have hit on him if she had known that Arthur was such a trouble.
