Daniel spread his hands. “I’ll call my men and get them to withdraw from the villa at this moment if you
agree to my proposal, I’m a man of my words.”
“You just set me up a few days ago.” Maisie picked up her cell phone and put it back into her handbag,
then stood up slowly. “Can I even trust you for a second time?”
“You can.” Daniel looked at her. “I only want to get the negative vote, so I’ll let him go this time around for
your sake as long as you agree to my term.”
Maisie smiled. “Okay, I promise.”
Seeing that she agreed, Daniel also took out his cell phone and made a call. “You guys can withdraw
from the place now.”
He then looked at her. “Are you satisfied now?”
Maisie glanced at him meaningfully. “Mr. Kent, I don’t like to suffer a loss when it comes to business.
You’ve taken advantage of me this time, and I’ll keep this in mind.”
She gave him a faint smile and hurried out of the restaurant with a gloomy face.
Saydie stood in front of the car and asked her the second she appeared, “Do you really plan to hand Sir
Hernandez’s negative vote to him?”
Maisie smirked. “It’s just my plan to divert the enemy’s attention. I have a final move kept right up my
sleeve.”
Maisie got into the car.
Saydie got in the car and drove away from the restaurant, while Maisie took her cell phone out of her
handbag and glanced at the icon saved on the screen. Then, a hint of coldness beamed from the corners
of her lips.
‘It’s not that I don’t know there’s no cure for the virus infection. I only needed to get the fact that the virus
is related to them out of him.
‘I knew that Daniel had ill intentions, so I didn’t trust him, not even for one second. Playing dirty is a must
when it comes to dealing with such a person. I didn’t expect him to take advantage of me before I did.
Daniel had deliberately placed someone in an ambush near the East Island Villa to wait for her
grandfather’s vote.
She picked up her cell phone and called Quincy.
Nolan was leaning on the bed, looking out the window when Quincy walked in. “Sir, Daniel Kent is aware
of our hideout now. Elder Master Goldmann is sending over more men now.”
“Okay.” Nolan responded lightly. He thought of something and asked, “How… How is she doing?”
Quincy was stunned for a split second, but he knew who Nolan was referring to. “Ms. Vanderbilt came
over to see you a few days ago.”
“She’s been here?” Nolan turned his head toward Quincy, but the surprise in his eyes disappeared
almost immediately. “Does she know?” Quincy nodded.
Nolan’s thin lips pursed into a cold line, not knowing what to think about at this moment.
Quincy looked at him and said, “Ms. Vanderbilt dealt with Daniel but was used by him. Daniel’s men
followed her here when she came to us the other day.”
Nolan closed his eyelids. “Daniel seems to have been aware of her true identity.”
“Sir, you don’t have to worry about Ms. Vanderbilt. She has Saydie by her side and the entire Metropolis
behind her. Even someone like Daniel wouldn’t have the balls to do anything to her,” Quincy added.
The power of the Metropolis of Morwich should not be underestimated. If Prince Roger dared to lay his
fingers on Maisie, Mr. Henry would never just sit back and watch from the side. That would only make
the situation more unfavorable to Prince Roger.
Nolan rolled over and got out of bed.
Quincy was astonished. “Where are you going?”
“I’m going.”
“Where does a sick man like you want to go?”
A voice came from the doorway, and Quincy was shocked when he turned his head around. “Ms.
Vanderbilt!?”
Maisie was wearing a black, long windbreaker that was just enough to cover her up to her calves. It was
lined with a silk high neck. She also wore a pearl necklace at the neckline and a pair of 2.5 inches high
heels.
She looked capable and elegant, as well as glamorous and regal.
