Maisie and her son exchanged a quick glance.

Was it finally time to talk numbers?!

Maisie immediately hopped down from the windowsill.

Calling it a window was a bit generous-it was more of a small ventilation panel that opened vertically. There was no way she'd actually fit through it, let alone fall out.

Jumping out wasn't even on the table.

It was all a show to grab attention, to force Murray to step in. And it worked.

What Maisie didn't know, as she and her son eagerly made their way to Murray's office, was the look their assistant gave them from behind. It was indescribable, shrouded in a veiled darkness. Beneath that, almost imperceptible, was a hint of... sympathy?

This was the second time Maisie and Farley found themselves in this office.

It still felt extravagantly opulent.

Maisie didn't beat around the bush; as soon as she entered, she made her offer- "Five million."

Murray raised an eyebrow, sneering, "I thought you wanted fifty million?"

Maisie cursed internally. Sure, she wanted that much, but would they ever give it?
