Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart novel Chapter 903

She even found several pieces of the cocktail dress.

Maisie popped out of the cloakroom, asking him, "Why did you get me cocktail dresses?"

Ezra propped up from the bed, and answered, "Tomorrow there's a dinner party. I want you to go with me."

Maisie frowned, "Me? Is that appropriate?"

As a woman engaged in business, she was clear that people like Ezra need to attend various occasions at the end of the year. But still, she was startled that he was bringing her.

Ezra hummed, "What's inappropriate? You are Mrs. Cantillo. If I don't go with you, who should I go with?"

Maisie tried to explain, "I mean is it appropriate to bring a family member to the party? And is it a bit awkward for others to see me at such an event? You know, we just got married."

"You don't want to go with me, do you?" Ezra narrowed his eyes and pointed out what was going on in Maisie's mind.

She pressed her lips, refraining from saying a word.

To expose their relationship was not in her plan. Who would know the meeting with Nancy at the airport could stir so much popularity? It even went on hot trending.

If she were to go with him, the tie between them would only become stronger.

So she didn't want to go with him, truly.

After staring at Maisie for who knew how long a time, Ezra pulled the quilt over to cover himself and, like her, refused to respond to the outer world.

His discontent Maisie sensed. But the question was, she thought she did not do anything wrong. And instead of trying to comfort him or initiate a conversation, Maisie simply went to the bathroom.

Actually, it was Ezra who was trying to blur the line all the time. Maisie had told him before they got married about the divorce thing, but he always ignored her, hoping they could be normal couples.

The moment the door was closed, Ezra sprung up from the bed.

It never appeared more clear to him that Maisie didn't care a little about him. She was totally indifferent to his state of mind. Whether he was happy or not she didn't care. She never was a woman who would coax a man, and according to the current situation, it was almost impossible that she would come to soothe him.

Ezra was discouraged. But on second thoughts, he coaxed himself out of depression. Well, better to alleviate the tension himself. Otherwise, he should suffer if she truly refused to talk to him.

He averted his attention and fixed it on his son who was sleeping on the baby's bed and went to lie down on the couch.

He could never let Maisie sleep on a couch, though the couch was indeed uncomfortable for a man of his height. While lying on it, Ezra started to browse through his phone and liked Nina's new update.

Soon Nina texted him, "Isn't it the middle of the night in China, Mr. Cantillo? Why are you liking my posts instead of spending your happy time with Maisie?"

Ezra had sufficient proof that it was sarcasm. Nina knew at this stage there couldn't be any intimacy between him and Maisie. What happy time could there be?

He answered, "She wants nothing but to leave. What opportunity do you think I have?"

In return, Nina sent a list of lol. Ezra, on his part, believed that was the end of their conversation.

He knew what kind of person Nina was based on his observation of what happened between Julian and Emilia, someone who took delight in others' misery.

Nina sent another text, "I have an idea that might help you retain her."

"What's that?" His interest was aroused instantly.
