Chapter 477
They thought that because Maisie did not understand them, they could rest assured and act presumptuously. Unexpectedly, just as these maids were chit-chatting excitedly, a voice came from behind them. “You’d better shut up before Mr. Henry gets angry.”
The maids trembled, and their gossip came to an abrupt end. When they turned around and saw that it was Maggie, the housekeeper, they all bowed their heads respectfully and did not even dare to say another word before they hurried back to their respective workstation
The housekeeper pushed the frame lying on her nasal bridge to adjust her glasses and walked behind Maisie. “Miss, you’re here. Mr. Henry is looking for you.”
Maisie turned to look at her. Maggie was in her 40s and the housekeeper of the Hanns Palace. She was dressed meticulously and adequately
Seeing that Maggie was still waiting. Maisie slowly got up and walked up to her. Her beautiful eyes still looked dimmed and lifeless. “Bring me there.”
Maggie brought her to the study, and two bodyguards were waiting outside of the door

Alter pushing open the door, a huge white study room
that was renovated and decorated in a retro and elegant interior design was revealed. The cabinets were stashed with all kinds of books and many classic medical books,
Strix sat behind the desk under the chandelier. His desktop was neat. There was only a computer, a pen, a globe, and some documents. The only decoration might be the green frilled iguana housed in the glass tank with a forest environment setup.
Strix put down the book upon hearing footsteps and asked, “Have you not gotten used to it yet?”
Maisie’s speech rate was slow. “I’m gradually and slowly getting used to it.”
Strix nodded and took an old diary out of the drawer abruptly. “This is the note that your mother left behind. Do you want to read it?”
Maisie faltered for a split second, and a tiny emotional fluctuation could be seen through her unconcerned eyes. She grabbed the diary, which its cover had already discolored and turned yellow and rough, but she did not have the courage to open it.
Strix smiled gently. “Take it back with you even if you don’t want 10 read it now. It’s not too late to go through it when you think you’re ready for it.”
“Uncle Strix,” Maisie frowned and looked up at him,” Was my mother happy? When she knew she was infected and only had a few years lelt, was she happy?”
This was the longest sentence that escaped Maisie’s mouth in the past two months.
Strix paused for a short second and then gave off a gentle chuckle. “She had never complained about the injustice that fate had dropped upon her.”
Maisie opened her mouth all of a sudden. “Then why did she leave?”
