Since Maisie had made up her mind, David couldn't change it but only compromise.

"You must promise me not to give them so much money, Maisie. You also can't buy them whatever they want," he reminded his sister.

Their parents had taken too much money from Maisie all through the years. In their hometown, their parents had become the richest.

Julian gave the apartments to David and Maisie as gifts, so neither of them had loans. However, Maisie didn't have much savings, as their parents had taken almost all of her money. She took the initiative to give their parents some, and their parents also asked for money from her with all kinds of excuses.

Those excuses were unreasonable, but Maisie still gave money to them.

David used to convince her, but Maisie expressionlessly told him that the money was useless to her.

However...

David had a bad hunch. He guessed that Maisie wouldn't be in love with any other man in the future.

She used to date Ezra, a "perfect" man in many senses. How would she fall in love with others?

If she wanted to live all by herself, she must have some savings. That was why David kept reminding her to save money.

"I got it, David," Maisie nodded in agreement.

She had done more than enough for her parents and family. In the future, she decided to live for herself.

She cast down her eyes at her lower abdomen in silence. After all, she had a goal to fight for.

Julian and David had to leave after talking to Maisie for a while, but Emelia stayed. She wanted to accompany Maisie longer. Also, she would help Maisie pack.

Julian was pretty angry with Ezra. He had planned to spend the rest of the day with Emelia. Primarily, he had intended to dine with Emelia in the evening.
