"I'm sorry, Maisie. I... I didn't want to hurt you," Graham said.

"You can't hurt me," Maisie stated, gazing into his eyes. "Because I've realized today that my feelings for you aren't

that deep."

Graham was taken aback, his head snapping up.

"I just can't understand one thing." Maisie spoke softly. "Since you were already in love with someone else, why did

you date me?"

Graham's throat tightened. He licked his lips and hoarsely replied, "Because Aunt Linda introduced you, and my

parents were quite satisfied with you...

"Plus, you're beautiful, without a strong background, and easy to control. Even if I had other women after we got

married, you wouldn't do anything to me, nor would your family would be able to do anything to me."

Maisie's eyes widened. So, he wanted to marry her because she was easy to bully and had no family to back her

up?

It made sense. In a family with matching backgrounds, someone like Lina or Arya would never put up with that. Not

to mention that they wouldn't just accept the insult—their powerful families would have already taken action against

him.

After the initial shock, Maisie suddenly laughed.

Graham's expression changed. This was not as he had expected. He thought Maisie would be emotionally

overwhelmed and might even slap him a few times. However, that didn't happen.

Maisie didn't cry or create a scene. Instead, she remained remarkably calm, making Graham feel uneasy.

"Maisie, if you're really angry, you can hit me... Come on, you can hit me! It's my fault. I'm the villain here. I was the

one who wronged you!" He reached out to take Maisie's hand, but she suddenly pulled away and looked at him once

before silently turning to leave.

At that moment, it felt as if her heart had fallen into place as if she had been waiting for this result all along. With

the outcome now, her heart felt at peace. -

Maisie went to work as usual the next day, but her colleagues looked at her differently.

She endured through the morning's classes. During the lunch break, she went to the pantry, overhearing a few of

her coworkers talking.

"Is it true that Ms. Squire got dumped by her fiance?"

"It sure is! James is the child of that woman Mr. Bayer is seeing outside! That woman deliberately put her son in her

class to flaunt her authority!"

"And she's this arrogant as the kept mistress?"

"Ah, Mr. Bayer would rather marry a woman who has been married before and has a child than marry Ms. Squire...

Do you think there's something wrong with Ms. Squire?"

Maisie bit her lip, then boldly entered the pantry. The conversations stopped abruptly.

When the crowd saw her, they didn't know what to say, and the atmosphere turned awkward. They all stared at

each other and quietly left the room.

Maisie filled her cup with water and found herself face-to-face with Ruth. The latter treated her well on ordinary

days, and as Daniel's senior, he had asked her to take care of Maisie.

That was why Ruth was also furious in this case.

Ruth patted her shoulder and said in a low voice, "Ms. Squire, don't force yourself for the time being. If you need to

take leave, take as much time off as you need."

"Ms. Corbin, I..." She had intended to say she didn't need it, but a sudden wave of dizziness almost made her lose

her balance.

"Oh dear, you don't look good. Are you feeling unwell?" Ruth reached out to touch her forehead. It did feel warm,

so she immediately called Daniel.

"Daniel, Ms. Squire isn't feeling well. Can you come and take care of her?"
