Chapter 992 He Is Happy for her Happiness
Maybe the sound of the emergency brake came out from the phone, David hurriedly apologized, “Sorry, you are driving?”
“I’m okay.”
Maisie did not expect David to bring her such breaking news. Fortunately, the car just drove a short distance out of the parking lot. Maisie found a place where she could park the car.
“Let me drive.” Ezra unbuckled the seat belt and the two exchanged positions.
Then Maisie could continue to talk with David on the phone.
“I was taken aback.” Maisie could not hide her surprise, “Shania …”
David explained, “She doesn’t believe I love her, saying that only marriage can prove that.”
Maisie did not know what to say. Most people would choose to take it slow to let time prove one’s sincerity, like Nancy and Noel.
But Shania chose to take the risk of marriage.
Although Maisie knew that since David had now made such a decision, he would certainly be sincere to Shania. However, she still felt somewhat distressed for her, “Silly girl.”
Maisie was indeed worried about Shania, perhaps because she had experienced of being hurt.
“Dear Maisie, I am not silly.” Suddenly a girl’s voice came from the phone, which sounded very bright and cheerful. It was Shania.
Maisie did not expect Shania was also there. After a moment of embarrassed silence, she hurried to explain, “Sorry, Shania. I didn’t mean that…”
Shania chuckled, “I know, I can feel your concern for me.”
Shania’s words nicely relieved Maisie and made Maisie like her immediately, because Maisie could feel that Shania was a lively girl who was easy going.
“David, I want to eat strawberries. Wash some for me,” said Shania, obviously for getting David away.
Then Shania chuckled again and said, “I know you are thinking that it is too impulsive and silly for me to ask for marriage, but I did it because I know David well.”
“Since he came to me, he must be sincere to me. I don’t need him to do much to prove his sincerity. The fact that he dares to marry me is already his greatest sincerity.”
“Indeed.” Maisie felt relieved at once. It seemed that Shania really knew David very well.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
Shania added, “Besides, even if he is not sincere, I have nothing to lose. I’ve got over the most painful period when he ignored me. What else could beat me down?”
“I’m glad that you are so optimistic.” Maisie did not know what to say. Shania was sober-minded enough. As an outsider, she did not need to say anything more. Shania could deal with everything well.
Shania continued, “David told me about you and your family. I’m on your side. Since they do not love you nor respect you, then you do not need to treat them as parents.”
Maisie said softly, “Thank you for supporting me. I’m almost out of touch with them. But you, if you are gonna live with David here, it is inevitable to have contact with them.”
Her mother was definitely a tough, tart and mean woman. She wondered if Shania, the apple of her family who grew up abroad, would adapt to her meanness.
“It’s okay. Don’t worry about me. I know how to do.” Without any worries, Shania comforted Maisie. She knew how to deal with the vile characters. Though she was born in a wealthy family, there were still some annoying relatives. And she had fought against them until they never came to her door again.
There were some things her parents can’t say directly in front of those relatives, but she didn’t care, especially those relatives who coveted her family’s property. They always gave pressure to her parents. Because her parents were rich, they took it for granted to ask them for money.
Maisie listened to Shania’s light tone and couldn’t help but worry that Shania was thinking too naively about human nature.
Maisie did not know that Shania had nuisance families, too. After all they had no intersection before. Hearing Shania’s unconcerned tone, she thought that Shania was too naive.
“It’s not convenient talking on the phone. Let’s sit down and talk when we get back,” said Shania.
“Alright, then wish you a nice trip. See you tomorrow.” Said Maisie.
The phone was then taken over by David. David told her the specific time and flight tomorrow. Maisie promised to meet them at the airport, and then they hung up the phone.
After hanging up, Maisie leaned back in her seat and let out a long sigh. Indeed, she should be happy that David and Shania’s relationship was going well. But thinking that they would face Susan after coming back, she was worried for them.
Ezra knew why Maisie sighed. Growing up in that kind of family, it was lucky for her and David not to be infected by their parents.
Perhaps because the two left home early to study in a residential school, or perhaps the two received good education, they were not like their parents that bad and ignorant.
Seeing his beloved woman worried, Ezra felt he had to teach Susan a lesson in private, so that she would not trouble David and Shania.
But then he thought, David and Shania must face it after all. It was better to leave this to themselves. Even if he intervened, it would not last.
Susan’s nature had been set. Even she could be suppressed for a while, it couldn’t be for long. Shania either had to be more domineering than Susan or break off her relationship with her forever.
However, Ezra thought that since David had made the decision to go to Shania, he wouldn’t let her have her way in the future.
The two arrived and Maisie got off alone. Ezra said he had something to do and drove off.
Maisie thought he had something to deal with at work. But when Ezra came back, he took a large box. Maisie took a look at the logo, which was a luxury brand.
“A gift for you.” Ezra smiled and handed her the box.
Maisie was confused, “Why do you suddenly give me a gift?”
“Open it.” Ezra did not say the reason. He did not want her to be unhappy because of David and Susan, so he specifically bought this bag for her to make her happy.
A few days ago when she was chatting with Nina and Emelia on the phone, he heard she say she liked this bag, so he secretly ordered it, intending to give her a surprise.
Just now he called the store and the sale-man said it had arrived. So he sent her today, hoping that she could feel better.
He could be really happy only when seeing she was happy.
