David was relieved, "Thank god."

He really could not bear any more his mother's cry and scream when she called Maisie to pay medical bills. In her mother's eyes, Maisie was where she could extract money. Whenever she needed money, more or less, Maisie was her first choice.

Actually, it was just a small operation. It wouldn't cost much, and there was still medical insurance. Besides, his salary was rather good in a big city like Riverside City. It wouldn't be a big cost for him even if there was no medical insurance.

But his mother believed Maisie was going to marry someone sooner or later, and her money would ultimately become someone else's, thus it would be stupid not to ask her for money.

Every time David heard his mother talk like that, he was much irritated, but no matter how he persuaded his mother, she would not listen. In fact, his mother even thought David silly. Therefore, David absolutely did not want his mother to know anything about his illness.

Maisie sat by the bedside, asking, "How do you feel now?"

Despite their mother's preference, they were close all the time.

That David was all alone when he had the surgery tortured Maisie's heart. She even felt sorry for him.

They made a deal to stay here together, settle here together, and work here together so that they could watch out for each other.

But she left because of a man, leaving him alone, even when he was ill.

It seemed Maisie was a bit irresponsible as a big sister.

"The operation went well, and there's only the recovery thing. I'm always strong, so I suppose we can get out in three or four days." He was quite optimistic about his condition.

Then he added, "Right. Where is little Ezio?"

Maisie answered honestly, "I brought him with me."
