Jay also heard the doorbell ring and knew who it was. He pretended to look at Maisy aggrievedly while still holding the dishes that had just been washed. Maisy felt a little guilty since he had cooked and washed the dishes.
“Jay, can you hide first?” She was a little embarrassed, but there was really no other way.

Jay looked at her in disbelief. He had already done enough for Maisy, but now, she wanted him to hide because of another man.

Maisy looked at the man in front of her and became nervous. No matter what, Jay was the young master of the Hamilton family. Was she going overboard by doing this?
“Alright. I’ll hide in your room.” Jay tried his best to suppress his emotions and said in a very understanding manner.

Maisy still wanted to explain, but he had already tidied up and entered the room. Forget it. Maisy knew that there was no point in saying anything now.

Lucas sighed. “Mother, you can go. Leave the rest to me.”

Maisy smiled guiltily. “You’re so obedient.”

As soon as she left the house, Lucas ran into the master bedroom. “Mr. Hamilton!”

As Jay looked at him, the anger from before had long disappeared.

“Mr. Hamilton, don’t be too sad. My mother and Mr. Smith are just friends. You have to continue to work hard. I think the best of you.”

Lucas spoke very seriously, and Jay couldn’t help but laugh.

“Okay, I will continue to work hard,” Jay imitated him and said.

After sending Lucas to school, Jay had an idea and sent a message to Maisy. Maisy had been busy working on the Hamilton family’s project recently. As they had just started working together, there weren’t many things to do, so she could take a break from her busy schedule. However, she was told by Jay
to devise an activity plan. He really didn’t allow her to be idle for even a moment. Maisy felt a little helpless, but she could only listen to Jay.

After she arrived at the restaurant that they had arranged to meet, Jay had already ordered the dishes. Even though they hadn’t met for so many years, he still knew Maisy’s preferences like the back of his hand. Looking at her favorite dishes in front of her, Maisy was slightly touched. She didn’t know if
Jay was deliberately trying to pander to her, or if he really hadn’t forgotten about her, or if it was just to get back the child, but she still couldn’t help but feel moved by the man in front of her.

“What’s wrong? Are the dishes to your liking?” When Jay saw that Maisy was stunned, he smirked.

Maisy nodded and didn’t say anything. Because she had something on her mind, she only thought of the reason why she came halfway through her meal. “Mr. Hamilton, do you have any new ideas about the activity plan?” Maisy said in a businesslike manner.
“Nothing much, but I think that as Lucas’s parents, we should see each other more often,” Jay said naturally. He didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with using business as an excuse to lure her here.

Maisy was alarmed. Since Jay mentioned Lucas to her, was he really going to fight for custody?

“Jay.” Her brows were tightly furrowed, and a serious expression appeared on her face. “I gave birth to Lucas. I won’t give him up to anyone, not even his father.”

Maisy took a deep breath. “You should understand what I mean, right?”

Jay was stunned. It seemed that Maisy had misunderstood something. However, letting her continue to misunderstand him might have unexpected effects.
