Chapter 98: Back to the Capital
Maisy slept for a long time, and when she got up, it was already two o’clock in the afternoon. Jay had already woken up and was staring at her quietly. “You scared me.” Maisy took the quilt to cover half of her face. “Why are you staring at me?”
“Because you’re good-looking.” Jay said with a smile, “When you sleep, you look really cute.” It reminded him of the days before, when Maisy would occasionally get angry, but would still stay by his side most of the time.
“Do you want to eat?” Maisy changed the topic. “I’m hungry.” Although she knew that it was her fault, she was still a little embarrassed.
“Okay, let’s eat first.” Jay smiled and patted her head. Because they were all very tired, Jay ordered some dishes from their favorite hotel and had them sent over. After eating, Maisy felt that she had recovered some of her energy.
“Since you are full, let’s talk about Bruce.” Jay stared straight at Maisy. Maisy frowned and was very puzzled. “Didn’t we settle it just now? Why do we still have to settle it?”
“1 just promised you that I wouldn’t target the Smith family anymore, but I’m still very jealous!” “Then what are you going to do?” Maisy spread her hands out helplessly. “I hope that you will leave Bruce’s company.” Jay’s goal was achieved, so he quickly voiced his expectations.
Maisy was immediately stunned. This was something that she had never thought of. Although she was doing quite well in the company now, if Jay acted like this, she really wouldn’t be able to take it. “1 can quit.” Maisy was silent for a while, then she said decisively, “As long as you won’t get jealous, it’s fine.”
Jay was very surprised, and his tone became more cheerful. “That’s great!” He had thought that he would have to try to convince her for a long time, but he didn’t expect her to agree so quickly. “Is it considered settled?” Maisy felt that his reaction was quite strange.
‘Yes, what kind of job do you want to do? What industry do you want to work in? I’ll invest in you.” Jay smiled as he moved closer to her. He was in a good mood.
“Huh?” Maisy felt a little self-conscious. “I can find a job myself.”
“But I hope you can accompany me back to the capital.” Maisy felt that this matter wasn’t that simple. There were many memories in the capital, but they also made her feel sorrowful and heartbroken. “Lucas is growing up. You definitely want to give him a better education, don’t you?
Maisy nodded. Jay added, “I think it’s best to go to the capital. I’ll give you whatever you like.”
An invisible sense of pressure enveloped Maisy. She didn’t want to continue being Jay’s subordinate. After a long silence, she finally spoke, “1 can go to the capital, but can you let me work in the company first?”
Jay instantly understood her concerns and agreedy. Maisy nodded happily.
Rather than making Jay jealous, this was a better choice for both her and Lucas. Jay felt relaxed and at ease. AfterMaisy left, Jay contacted his people and arranged Lucas’ schooling. “When are you going to resign?
Maisy looked at him in confusion.
“1’m already prepared. I can leave this weekend,” Jay said confidently.
“Then I’ll go and talk to Bruce tonight.” Maisy felt a little helpless. “But it’s better to wait another week. Lucas also needs a time to say goodbye to his classmates.”
Jay nodded and also realized that he was a little too anxious..
