They bickered and then made up with each other as Ezra gave up drinking.
After eating some snacks, they went on to chat with others. Of course, Ezra mainly did all the talking, with Maisie by his side.
One of the guests suddenly asked with great interest, "When are you going to have a wedding? Invite us then."
Ezra and Maisie were stumped. In Maisie's opinion, whatever Ezra thought, she would not marry Ezra, let alone a wedding ceremony.
Ezra soon made a decent response, "Depends on the weather. Beautiful wedding gowns should be worn on a beautiful day, right?"
The man agreed, "Yeah, girls love beautiful wedding gowns."
"Wait for your invitation." Another guest chimed in. Maisie made a tight-lipped smile.
After they left, Maisie lifted her head and met Ezra's expectant eyes. She immediately looked away, pretending she didn't catch the glimpse of the expectation in his eyes.
Yes, she could feel Ezra was looking forward to their wedding, which was a wavering decision for Maisie now.
Ezra had been accustomed to her disregard for his feelings and expectations. He broke the silence, "Let's go. I miss my son."
Maisie looked at him in surprise, but Ezra said in a self-deprecating way, "What? I can't miss our son now?"
Maisie cleared her throat and looked away. It was out of her expectation that Ezra would say such words as "miss our son". She knew well that Ezra loved their son very much, but it was only a few minutes after they left home. Too exaggerated, right?
Seeing that Maisie disbelieved his affection for their son, Ezra was so angry that he couldn't help questioning her, "In your eyes, I'm a man without feelings, right?"
Maisie doubted Ezra's love like a paranoid, and now she even doubted his love for Ezio!
Ezra wished to pry his chest open and pull his heart out to show how much he loved Maisie and their son!
"I miss him, too. Let's go." Maisie gave him an out. Then she turned around and walked out. Staring at her graceful back, Ezra went soft. He couldn't do anything, could he?
They had just got into the car when something terrible happened.
Ezra got a call. Somebody asked on the phone, "Mr. Cantillo?"
"Yes?" Ezra replied.
"I am the policeman from the branch of the Public Security Bureau of Riverside City. We were called just now that a girl whose name is Anan Cantillo, committed suicide by jumping off a building."
"What?" a severe look gradually appeared on Ezra's face.
Then he added, "What happened?"
The police should contact Ruth and Diana instead of him, right?
The policeman continued, "We found a letter in Anna's clothes. It was for you."
Ezra's brows knitted. Why did Anna leave a letter to him?
There were no such feelings as family members between him and his half-sister, why did she leave a letter to him?
But he then said, "I will come right away."
