When Maisie mentioned her poor family, Ezra deeply realized that she was seized with sadness after Ezra told his father how he disdained Maisie's humble background.
Deep in thought, Ezra was greeted by a passing doctor respectfully. "Hello, Mr. Cantillo."
Maisie turned around with her phone in her hand. But she just noticed someone quickly left from the corner of the corridor.
Full of mockery, she realized Ezra had heard all she said since she didn't hide her true feeling or lowered her voice.
Ezra and Maisie hated each other. Naturally, they should never see each other.
After ending the talking on the phone with Emelia, Maisie returned to the ward to take care of David.
When having afternoon tea with Diana, Mrs. Marshall complained about Maisie.
Diana sneered. "Why would your daughter argue with such a skanky woman? Why didn't you stop her?"
Seemingly regarding Mrs. Marshall as her close friend, Diana actually belittled Mrs. Marshall and always condescended to her in all her dealings since they were young.
Diana's words and behaviors were full of condescension. Gradually, Mrs. Marshall held more grudges for Diana and avenged herself on Diana by sleeping with Roman, a playboy.
Every time staying with Roman, Mrs. Marshall would feel gloat at the thought of Diana's condescension and guessed that Diana would turn depressed if Erika managed to get married to Ezra.
Failing to get any comfort from Diana, Mrs. Marshall could not visit Roman in the hospital, so she called him for solace.
After Roman comforted her for a long time, Mrs. Marshall felt much better.
Though Mrs. Marshall didn't know who help Maisie, Roman easily found the person's identity and called his son, "You have told me before that you disliked Maisie. So why do you protect her this time?"
Ezra mocked. "Is that Mrs. Marshall's pillow talk?"
"Calm down. Since you just recover, don't wallow in sexual pleasure."
"Bastard, what are you talking about?" Anger crept over Roman after his son deliberately laughed at him for the so-called sexual pleasure. How could a sick person enjoy that?
Ezra added, "Protect her? Of course not. I just don't want to take the responsibility."
"Erika is just a fool. How could a normal woman do such a silly thing?" Ezra ridiculed.
Then he added, "By the way, I have a piece of news for you. I ruined their business deal."
Roman was bursting with anger. "Ezra, are you crazy? They have been reduced to a miserable situation. You even ruined their business deal."
"They should pay the price of what their spoiled daughter did," Ezra replied solemnly.
