Chapter 910 A Rival in Love
However, she didn’t expect Julian would tell to Ezra when they had a chat. Julian didn’t know their relationship, so he said Maisie might have a boyfriend, otherwise, she would not buy a man’s tie pin.
Then Ezra got it that she probably bought the tie pin for him. He waited for a few days, but Maisie didn’t give the tie pin to him. Ezra decided to ask for it directly.
“I heard you had bought a tie pin when you were on a business trip. Do you want to keep it in your hand and then give it to other men?”
Ezra asked with great dissatisfaction.
Maisie was so surprised. How did Ezra know the tie pin? She was somewhat embarrassed, “Well, I …”
She thought the tie pin was not suitable for Ezra, so she told David she would give it to him. Now Ezra said he wanted the tie pin, which made her didn’t know how to answer.
“Why did you hem and haw?” Ezra stared at her and asked,” Maisie, you are seeing other men, right?”
“Of course not.” she quickly explained, “The tie pin is not that fancy, so I don’t think it is suitable for you. I’d like to give it to David…”
Ezra hummed, “You even didn’t let me have a look at it. How do you know it is not suitable?”
He insisted on getting the tie pin, so Maisie had to give it to him. She did not expect that he liked the tie pin and kept it all the time.
He kept the tie pin all the time, which surprised her.
It was said that the things a man did were the relationship test. Maisie seemed to be able to feel a bit of his affection, and somewhat believed his words like “He loved her”.
When getting out of the car, Ezra wrapped the coat tightly for Maisie, and gave her “kind” advice, “If you feel cold, don’t take off the coat. You look very beautiful with this coat.”
Maisie was amused to see Ezra was jealous. Since she had worn the dress, how could she wrap herself up in a coat?
When walking on the red carpet, Maisie was wearing the dress. The moment Maisie and Ezra appeared on the red carpet, the sound of pressing the shutter came from all over the room. The dazzling flash nearly came into her eyes.
Both the media reporters and other staff let out an exclamation, amazed by her beauty.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Some whispered, “Who is the beauty beside Ezra? How beautiful she is!”
“Keep your voice down. Don’t you know? She is Ezra’s officially announced fiancée!”
“Of course, I know. But I don’t think this chick looks the same as the one in photos.”
“Photos are not as real and vivid as a real person, but her charisma and vibe have never changed.”
Both men and women talked hotly. Maisie stood on the stage, feeling rather uncomfortable.
She and Ezra couldn’t hear others’ discussions. What made her uncomfortable was that so many people took photos of her. She couldn’t feel at ease like female stars.
She gently pulled the clothes of Ezra, who understood her immediately. He said “Excuse”, hugged her shoulder to went downstairs, and incidentally blocked her sexy bareback with his hands. It made others burst into laughter, murmuring that Ezra was jealous when other men were enjoying Maisie’s beauty.
Returning to the banquet venue, Maisie expressed her thanks to Ezra.
Ezra snorted, “It is you who insist on wearing this dress, right? Why were you uncomfortable on the stage?”
Maisie explained, “Because I am not used to facing so many people.”
Ezra was about to refute when someone came to greet them. So, the two began to chat with the guests.
Maisie followed Ezra all the time, who introduced her to every guest. Of course, Maisie had to smile all the time, so she almost had a stiff face when all was over.
Ezra asked in a low voice, “Tired?”
Maisie shook her head, “I’m Ok.”
She was not tired. As an office lady, she wore high heels for years. A short time of social interaction and walking wouldn’t make her tired.
It was the floods of praises and compliments that made her feel uncomfortable, although she was clear she would surely receive all kinds of flatters because of Ezra’s achievements in the business field.
She has attended such parties with Julian before, but she was not the leading role at that time. What others said about her was something like “Ms. Brennan was very beautiful and capable”.
But today the guests tried their best to flatter her, which made her rather uncomfortable.
“Take a break over there and have some refreshments,” Ezra said as he pulled her to the sofa.
They found David and Julian were at the party, too. Because Emelia had to take care of the two children at home, plus, she did not like such occasions, Julian asked David to go with him.
They exchanged greetings with one another. Then David turned to chat with Maisie.
“Maisie, are you free this weekend?” David asked.
Ezra turned around and looked at them, full of vigilance. He always felt David was playing the fox.
Maisie replied, “Yes. What’s the matter?”
David glanced at Ezra and went on saying, “Steven is coming to Riverside. Let’s go and pick him up at the airport.”
Without waiting for Maisie’s reply, Ezra interrupted, “Who is Steven?”
Obviously, it was a man’s name, which made Ezra jealous and vigilant.
Maisie felt a little embarrassed. She stared at David, wondering why he mentioned Steven in front of Ezra.
In fact, David did it on purpose. He just wanted to test how much Ezra loved Maisie.
Maisie asked David, “Why does he suddenly plan to come to Riverside City?”
She did not reply to Ezra’s question, but Ezra was not so easy to fool with.
He raised his hand and pulled Maisie’s wrist, asking again, “Who is Steven?”
Then David explained with a smile, “Steven is our classmate when we were studying abroad.”
Ezra raised his eyebrows, “Just a classmate?”
Both women and men had their instincts. Ezra felt that Steven might be a tough opponent, for he was most likely to be his rival in love.
David said again, “Steven has ever hit on my sister.”
Lowering his head, Julian was busy sending messages to Emelia. He had no interest in the party, so he would rather chat with his wife. Although he was out and had to deal with social activities, he was concerned about Emelia and their two children very much.
When David said that, Julian cut a glance at Ezra. He just wanted to laugh when Julian saw Ezra was jealous and anxious.
