Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1773

The journalists collectively froze. They exchanged glances, hesitant to utter another word. They had assumed Maisie to be soft and easily intimidated, unaware of her underlying determination.

After a few seconds of tense silence, voices suddenly erupted from the crowd of book fans.

"Yeah! This is her private life! You journalists are prying too much!"

"Regardless of what Maisie does, we'll support her!"

"Her words are comforting and powerful. Even if those events were her personal experiences, as fans, we'd only empathize with her!"

"Exactly! Journalists should stop asking these boring questions!"

"Organizers! Anyone there? How did you let these kinds of journalists in? We demand they leave!"

A commotion ensued in the audience, with journalists wearing uneasy expressions and event organizers struggling to maintain order.

Fortunately, it didn't escalate into a major uproar, and the event concluded in a warm and harmonious atmosphere.

Maisie left the venue, waiting by the roadside for Rachael to bring the car when she spotted a familiar figure.

She froze.

Although it had only been a few days since this man was absent from her life, it felt like ages. As he strode confidently toward her, her heart still thumped.

Daniel stood before Maisie.

Today, she wore a simple yet elegant dress with a coat from head to toe.

Daniel looked at her, smiling softly. "I... I knew you had a book presentation, so I waited here for you. Also... I heard about what happened inside and wanted to thank you."

"No need to thank me." Maisie lowered her gaze. "Saying that is also good for me. I'm not helping you. I'm helping myself."

"Yes, yes..." He hurriedly nodded in acknowledgment, then chuckled self-deprecatingly. "Rest assured, I haven't deluded myself. I do have some self-awareness. But I truly didn't expect you to defend me in front of so many people."

"Is that so?" Maisie looked at him.

Her eyes remained crystal clear, but the spark within them seemed dimmer.

"Why would you think I wouldn't stand up for you?" She half-smiled. "Remember how much I loved you before? You didn't forget that, did you?"
