If Mr. Hamilton didn’t bite her this time, wouldn’t Mr. Hamilton be at a disadvantage? Lucas had an idea. As soon as he left Maisy’s bedroom, he called Jay.

“What’s up, Lucas?” Because of what happened today, Jay was in a good mood. When he received Lucas’s call, his tone was gentle.

“Mr. Hamilton, my mother was injured today. Do you want to come and see her?”

“Injured?” Jay was a little anxious. She was fine when they met today. How come the girl was injured not long after he left?

“Mother said that she was bitten by a dog. There was a bite mark on her wrist,” Lucas said very seriously.

Jay resisted the urge to laugh and said, “Lucas, wait for a moment. I’ll be there right away.”

Bitten by a dog? After hanging up the phone, Jay shook his head helplessly. Maisy really knew how to make excuses. However, even if Lucas didn’t call him, Jay still had something to look for Maisy for.

Today, when Maisy left, she also took something that belonged to her — a photo of herself. Fortunately, he could see her in person every day now, so he didn’t really care about photos anymore.

Maisy opened the drawer, picked up the photo, and looked at it for a while. Since it was the photo under the pillow, Jay would definitely notice if the photo was missing, right? Before she could figure it out, she heard the doorbell ring.
Lucas was already prepared. As soon as Jay arrived, he hurriedly opened the door. “Mr. Hamilton!”

Maisy heard the sounds outside and quickly put away the photo. Why was Jay here? Did he come to ask for the photo? Maisy tidied up her pajamas and walked out of the room. “Is there anything you need?” Maisy’s tone was very cold. She didn’t want to waste time with Jay.
“Did you accidentally take something from my office?” Jay asked.

“What is it? I don’t know what you are talking about…” Maisy sounded a little guilty when she spoke.

Lucas didn’t come to watch the two of them argue. He quickly urged Maisy to cook. “Mom, let Mr. Hamilton eat with us today!”

Jay looked at Lucas with admiration. As expected of his son. He was really sensible.

“Mr. Hamilton has his own things to do. He doesn’t have time to eat with us,” Maisy patiently explained to Lucas.

“Tm fine. I have nothing to do tonight. Since you took my things, it’s not too much for me to have a free meal, right?” Jay said and sat on the sofa.

Maisy felt exasperated by this man. She could not help but start to think, was Jay also this thick-skinned in the past? People really do change..

Maisy’s cooking skills were very good. Jay had remembered it for many years. Now, he had finally tasted it again. He didn’t say anything at the dinner table. After finishing the meal quietly, Maisy was already thinking about how to send him away.
“Mr. Hamilton, can you tutor me with my homework later?” Lucas looked at Jay expectantly.

“Sure.” Jay agreed quickly and said, “I happen to be free tonight.”

Maisy swallowed the words that she was about to say. Was there really some sort of tacit understanding between father and son? Lucas was really too clingy with Jay.

Jay and Lucas went into the room to do homework. Maisy, afraid that Lucas would ask Jay to stay, looked at the time..
