As she left in a hurry, Maisy had a lot of things to settle first. The most important person was Lucas. Ever since he was born, he had never been separated from her. “Lucas,
Miss Sophie will take good care of you,” Maisy continued to say, “My work is very important. I don’t want to leave you, but I have to.”

Lucas pouted. No matter how mature a child was, he couldn’t bear to leave his mother. “Alright, but will Miss Sophie stay at our house? Or will I have to go to Miss Sophie’s
house?”

Maisy patted his head. “Go to Miss Sophie’s house. She is very gentle. Doesn’t she come to visit you often?”
Lucas nodded. His parents hadn’t reconciled yet, and his mother was about to go on a business trip. He was a little worried.

After getting Lucas settled, Maisy felt a lot more relaxed. After thinking for a while, she sent a message to Jay. “I’m leaving.” Without Jay and Lucas by her side, she felt a
sense of emptiness. Things that she used to take for granted seemed so precious now.

The plane landed very quickly, and the company even arranged for someone to come and pick her up. Bruce had always handled such matters well. As she had wasted a lot
of time, she hadn’t rested for long before she began to prepare for the banquet that night. Two days ago, she felt that she hadn’t worn a gown for a long time. After all, Bruce
had been supporting her most of the time. However, she was going to attend the banquet today. In order to look more suitable, Bruce arranged for a makeup artist and a
stylist for her.

“There’s really no need,” Maisy said to Bruce. “I can fix myself up.”
“After all, you represent the company, so it’s good to be well-prepared.” Bruce smiled gently. “Don’t worry, go ahead.”

Maisy couldn’t refuse anymore, so she could only agree to it half-heartedly. After being suddenly informed by Bruce to come on a business trip, Maisy didn’t even have the
time to learn more about the project here.

Because of her past, she didn’t like the capital to begin with, so she rarely got involved in matters related to the capital. However, for the long term development of the
company, Bruce had been contacting the company here and handling the project. Therefore, she was a little worried this time around because she was afraid that she
wouldn’t be acknowledged. However, Bruce had already informed everyone, so they treated her very well. However, she didn’t expect to meet someone she knew in a place
like this.

Maisy wasn’t the kind of person who would hold a grudge, nor was she the kind of person who liked to stir up trouble. She liked to live in her own circle, but even so, she
would still be harassed by many people.

“Maisy?” Serena said with some uncertainty. Maisy turned around, and the confident look on her face shocked Serena. What did she go through? Serena thought to herself.
She used to be such an unremarkable person..

“What’s the matter?” Maisy’s expression turned cold when she saw who it was.

“How did you get in?” Serena sneered. “Weren’t you expelled from the capital a long time ago?” She deliberately emphasized this. At that time, Maisy’s incident had caused a
stir. There was a lot of discussion about it at that time.

“Does it have anything to do with you?” Maisy sneered. “Do you think that I can still be bullied by you like before?”
“As if someone like you can get into this kind of cocktail party?” Serena revealed a disdainful expression. “I followed Mr. Lewis in. What about you?”

Maisy was about to say something when an employee of the company suddenly ran over. “Miss Owen.” .
