Amanda bit her lip as a thought suddenly crossed her mind. Would Maisie still be with Daniel if she knew why she had amnesia in the first place?
While lost in thought, Cindy closed the door with a loud bang.
Amanda gazed at the door with a mysterious smile, then turned to leave.

That night, Cindy couldn't sleep, tossing and turning in bed. Memories of the past events played in her mind like a movie. Despite treating her daughter as a source of money for all these years, guilt gripped her heart when she learned that Maisie had lost her child, suffered mentally, and couldn't even remember who Daniel was.
After all, she had raised Maisie for so many years. Even if one raised a cat or a dog, they would develop feelings for them...
In fact, when Amanda revealed that the Quimby Group managed the demolition project, Cindy was swayed. She considered convincing Maisie to seek Daniel's help, even if it meant sacrificing herself once again. In the end, her remaining maternal love overcame her extreme selfishness.
She wanted Maisie to find a wealthy man, but Daniel was not the only wealthy man in this world. She didn't want to throw Maisie into the fire pit again.
Cindy sighed deeply, her eyes welling up. Eventually, she fell into a restless sleep.

The next day, she headed to the Quimby Group. Before arriving, she called Daniel. She had saved that number for many years but had never dialed it and hadn't dared to.
Daniel's office was spacious and grand. When the assistant ushered her in, it felt like entering a palace. The owner of this palace gazed at her with a cold, sharp look.
"M-Mr. Quimby…" Cindy humbly bowed.
