“Jay, I’ve said it before. This is work. Can you not let your emotions get in the way?” Maisy took a deep breath and tried her best to make her voice sound less shaky. In the
past, she didn’t have any abilities and had always relied on him, so she was an “obedient” woman. However, now that she had her own career and things that she cared
about, what right did Jay have to continue to interfere in her affairs?

“Maisy, you can feel it, right? We already accept each other.” Jay looked at the woman in front of him sincerely. “I don’t want this to ruin the trust that we have painstakingly
built up.”

“Jay.” Maisy interrupted the man in front of her. She was afraid that if this continued, she would get soft-hearted. “We are now two independent individuals. Don’t you think
that you are overstepping your boundaries?” Maisy’s expression seemed to be cold to the bone, and she looked at Jay as if she was looking at a stranger.

Jay was stunned. He had been suppressing his anger and he tried to be as gentle as possible because he was afraid that Maisy would get angry and feel wronged. “Maisy.” his
voice became softer.

“Jay!” Maisy closed her eyes and no longer looked at the man in front of her. “I’m no longer your toy!” No matter how good her past with Jay was, at that time, she was only
Jay’s vassal. She was only a “toy”.

Jay didn’t expect Maisy to think of him this way, nor did he expect her to bring up the past in that sort of way. Even though it wasn’t good at the beginning, in his heart, they
got along very happily. Maisy wasn’t his toy. Although he didn’t say it out loud, she had always been the only woman that Jay acknowledged as his wife.

“Maisy.” Jay smiled bitterly. “I don’t treat you as my toy. I’m just pursuing you.” After saying that, he walked out of the room.

Maisy listened to Jay leave, but in the end, she didn’t say a word. She stood in the room in a daze and finally sighed heavily. This was the first time Maisy had expressed her

feelings. She and Jay weren’t on the same level at the beginning. There were many problems between them. Maisy was grateful to Jay in the past. Later, she fell in love with
Jay and was moved by his gentleness. However, the moment she left the Hamilton family, she made up her mind to become a new person. Maisy suppressed the uneasiness
in her heart and continued to pack her luggage. Perhaps, focusing on work was also a form of self-salvation.

After Jay sat in the car, the memories of last night swept over him again. Maisy’s eagerness and initiative made him 100% sure that she loved him. That was why he dared to
express his wish for her to stay so directly — who would have thought that she would think of things in that sort of way? Jay regretted leaving just like that out of anger.
After all, now that he thought about it, he could understand Maisy’s feelings.

Ever since they met, from saving her and then falling in love with her, he had always been standing at a higher position. She must have needed more self-recognition.
Thinking of this, Jay smiled self-deprecatingly. All his patience and consideration had been used on Maisy!

Maisy’s scent hadn’t completely disappeared. Jay took a deep breath. It seemed that there was still a long way to go before he could win his wife’s heart!.
