My ex-husband is in love with me (FULL) -
Chapter 836 He Was Flattering Himself
Maisie was fine. She woke up on the way, but she got rid of his arms immediately when she found it was Ezra by her side. It seemed that he had been carrying her in his arms all the time. She couldn't remember what had happened earlier. Maybe her mother had stimulated her brain nerves when she was making a scene in the office, and she couldn't recall it. Vaguely, she remembered her mother had cursed her harshly and even beaten her, but she couldn't remember anything else.
She moved a bit away from Ezra and asked in a low voice, "Where are we going?"
"You passed out just now. I'm taking you to the hospital," explained Ezra.
Passed out?
Maisie lifted her hand to rub her head. No wondered she couldn't remember things clearly.
"Thanks." Maisie thanked him politely and added, "I am fine now. We don't need to go now."
She was worried about Ezio at home and she didn't know whether her mother would insist on seeing little Ezio in her apartment. What's more, she was afraid that what her mother did might ruin the company's image and she wanted to go back to take care of it.
"You must go to the doctor," said Ezra.
He was too determined and powerful to be rejected.
Maisie was stunned. She wondered what was wrong with him. He was nothing to her and how could he talk to her like that?
Ezra softened his voice and said, "You just passed out. It's better to do a check-up in the hospital."
At the time, the driver smiled, "Well, it's better for you to do a check-up in the hospital if you don't feel well. Your boyfriend cares about you."
"He's not my boyfriend." Maisie clarified at once.
"Oh? He's not your boyfriend?" the driver apologized, "Sorry, I've misunderstood it."
He felt the chemistry between them and they were kind of close to each other, especially when they first got in the car. The man looked anxious on his handsome face and held her tightly in his arms all the way.
What else could they be if they weren't a couple?
But Ezra was calm and smiled gently, "Right. I'm not her boyfriend, but I am the father of her child."
Maisie turned to stare at him and was speechless.
What the hell was wrong with him?
He would surely add to the driver's misunderstandings by putting it that way.
As expected, the diver smiled brightly, "Oh, it turns out you two are married with a child. Good! You two look very young and I think you are still in a relationship."
The driver just took it for granted.
Of course, he wasn't her boyfriend since they were married. He should be her husband now.
Ezra was happy with the driver's smart reaction, while Maisie just looked away and stopped explaining. She could only make it worse if she went on explaining under such circumstances.
They arrived at the hospital. Ezra took Maisie to see the doctor.
Maisie tried to call David and asked what was going on there. She wanted to know if her mother had stopped making a fuss.
But Ezra simply took her phone away, "Trust him. David can handle it!"
David loved her. She should have known that David would stop their mother from making a scene again and he would never take her to see the baby without permission.
It annoyed Maisie that Ezra had taken her phone away. Then she saw him wiping her phone quickly with his slender fingers. And she found he had added her on WhatsApp when she got her phone back. She had changed her phone number since she came to Grafstin. So, they didn't have their contact details of each other.
"It's for Ezio. We should be friends on WhatsApp so that I can see Ezio by video calls."
Maisie had to accept it since he had put it so frankly.
After all, he could only see Ezio through video calls when they went abroad.
The doctor asked what she had suffered earlier and did a check-up for her. "It's no big deal. You passed out suddenly because you were too nervous and sad."
"Have a good rest and chill out." said the doctor, "Do you need some sleeping pills?"
"No."
"Yes, please."
They had totally different answers.
Maisie knew her health conditions very well. The doctor was right that she passed out only because her mother had broken her heart. And she had been in low spirit these few days. But it wasn't bad enough to take pills.
But Ezra thought Maisie should have some good rest and sleeping pills would help her sleep tight.
The doctor was in a dilemma.
"I am the patient. Listen to me, doc." Maisie stood up, "Thanks."
Then she got out of the doctor's office. Ezra had to get out with her.
"Maisie!" Ezra called out behind her back.
Maisie paused her steps and looked at Ezra, "I am fine, Mr. Cantillo. You can leave now."
"I am very sorry that I've got you into this." said Ezra, "Your mother popped up and made a scene here, and I know my mother must have agitated her to do so."
Maisie understood why it happened out of a blue.
"There's nothing to do with you. They will know it sooner or later since I've chosen to keep the baby."
Walls have ears! Maisie knew they just couldn't keep it a secret forever. Ezra's family and her family would know it anyway and it was only a matter of time.
"I'll go back with you to face up to your mother together," said Ezra.
He was Ezio's father and he couldn't sit back and do nothing.
He just couldn't let Maisie face up to her mother alone since he had known how mean and harsh Susan had been to her.
Maisie frowned and turned him down, "I decided to give birth to Ezio by myself, Mr. Cantillo. You don't have to do that."
Maisie didn't blame Ezra for it, and he didn't know she had given birth to his baby.
She could be responsible for her own decision.
"It was true that you made the decision to have the baby on your own. But I just can't sit back and do nothing since I know it now." Ezra insisted.
Maisie stared at his dashing face and thought he was really annoying!
She didn't want him to be responsible for her or the baby. She didn't want him to face up to anything together with her, either. And she didn't want him to care about her and protect her like this!
In other words, Ezra was flattering himself.
But Maisie thought it impolite to tell him so straightforwardly.
Even so, Ezra knew what she was thinking in mind by looking at her impatient face.
He burst into laughter. Ezra must admit that it was the first time he had been disliked and disdained by a woman like this so far.
And Maisie looked cute with the mixed feelings inside her.
