With Ezio in her arms, Maisie could not read the album.
Ezra closed it and put it by the side, and then he explained, "Do you know about Nancy Wen, a fashion photographer?"
Maisie nodded, "You've asked me once. What?"
Actually, HGH of the Hughes Group signed many stars and they were often invited to be on the cover of various magazines. When Maisie had worked as Julian's assistant, she had heard of the name, Nancy Wen, from some female stars and colleagues when interfacing with them.
Nancy Wen was well-known among fashion photographers, and many famous female stars asked her to photograph them for magazine covers. However, it was said she was unwilling to take photos at home. Even if she had been abroad, the stars would like to fly all the way to her and take photos.
Maisie also heard that Nancy Wen was very mysterious. Except for those she had worked with, few people knew what she looked like. For many years, people could only hear about her news yet never get any photos of her.
Also, it was said that Nancy Wen did not take pictures with the female stars and celebrities she had worked with. All in all, there were no photos of her on social media at all. But those who had seen her all agreed that Nancy Wen was an oriental beauty, appealing and elegant.
"She is my mom," Ezra said softly.
Maisie looked at Ezra and stared at the woman in the photos in the album. Nancy Wen was as appealing and elegant as what people said - an oriental beauty, indeed.
She asked Ezra in embarrassment, "So, she photographed all the covers?"
Ezra nodded. "Yes."
Maisie blushed scarlet all at once. She apologized, "I'm sorry. I get you wrong."
Maisie thought she had a nasty mind. Ezra did not obsessive about collecting pictures of beauty but collected the masterpiece covers as souvenirs for his mother.
Ezra sneered, "Actually if you turned several pages more, you would find two male stars' covers."
"They are two award-winning actors my mother photographed in the early days. But after taking the two photos, my mom announced that she would never shoot men because she thought she couldn't show the attractive points of men and didn't shoot well. So, she simply stopped photographing men.
"She said that she knew women's hearts because she was a woman. Therefore, the women she photographed presented their unique charm and temperament, especially oriental women."
After listening to Ezra's description, Maisie admired Nancy Wen. She said in excitement, "She knows what she really wants and what she is good at. And she could decide which areas she would be devoted to without hesitation. She's very nice."
Maisie thought that she herself was going to be a big fan of Ezra's mother. Properly speaking, Maisie wanted to be a fan of Nancy Wen, who was the one Maisie was eager to be, sensible and wise.
It was rare that Maisie could be so excited, while Ezra became depressed.
For so long, Maisie had been calm and indifferent towards Ezra. However, a short introduction to his mother stirred Maisie's blood. Was it because he was a loser or because his mother was so charming?
Ezra had to admit that he was jealous of his mother.
Maisie was immersed in the excitement. She shoved Ezio to Ezra and took the album. She went through it from beginning to end again seriously.
This time she observed Nancy Wen's face and admired all her works thoroughly. Finally, she told Ezra, "Your mother is really wonderful!"
Ezra could tell from her eyes that Maisie liked him more because of his mother.
He thought there would be no other man as tragic as he was - his lover became a big fan of his mother and only loved his mother. What should he do?
(Can you tell him? Well, it's kind of urgent.)
"We gotta go." Ezra regretted telling Maisie about his mother. Maisie's attention to him must become even much less.
In fact, Maisie paid more attention to Ezio than to Ezra, and now, the rest of her attention was distracted by his mother. When would Maisie notice him?
