Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 1832

"Of course, it's not instant poisoning." Cindy chuckled. "There's a kind of slow-acting poison. I'll give her a bit during meals, and over time, the poison will take effect in her body... They say even forensic experts find it hard to identify this poison!"

Jodie nodded without saying more, half skeptical. She didn't care what kind of poison was used. What she wanted was for Maisie to disappear from this world!

After seeing off Wilfred, Maisie gently hooked her arm around Daniel's, giving him a sweet smile.

Daniel affectionately pinched her nose.

"Someone once said I should learn to grow up, right?"

Daniel smiled without saying a word.

"So why did you follow me again?" Maisie's eyes twinkled.

"Well..." Daniel said honestly, "I can't rest assured letting you meet an older man alone."

Maisie playfully hit him, but the second time, Daniel held her fist. "Of course, I feel like contract details should be my responsibility, too, right?"

"Then how should I thank you?"

"You know what I want."

"Daniel, you..."

"Let's do this." Daniel didn't make it difficult for her, pointing at his own cheek.

Maisie smiled, tiptoed, and lightly kissed his cheek.

One kiss on the left wasn't enough. He also wanted one on the right-then the forehead, the tip of the nose, leaving no spot untouched. Finally... Maisie blushed slightly, glanced around, and teasingly gave him a peck on the lips.

"Is that all?"

"There are too many people here..."

"Oh, okay." Daniel's eyes curved as he smiled. "Then let's find a place with no one around. Show me your gratitude properly. How about that?" Maisie felt shy, reaching to hit Daniel, but he embraced her.

At that moment, two coughs came from behind them.

Daniel turned around, his subordinate looking embarrassed and hesitant. After a moment's thought, he asked Maisie to wait in the car for him.

"What's the matter?"

His subordinate said softly, "Mr. Quimby, Mr. Chris Hamerton and Ms. Harding are waiting in the hotel lobby to meet you."

"Arrange for them to go to my lounge." Daniel walked, instructing, "Regarding my meeting with them, don't mention it in front of Maisie. Understood?"

"Yes."

The subordinate led Daniel in.

As soon as Chris and Lena saw him, they got straight to the point. "Uncle Daniel, we've brought the results from the previous tests today."

"Good." Daniel nodded. "What were the results?"

Chris produced the test report with a serious look.

Lena spoke softly. "The results are peculiar. The three samples belong to Maisie, Jodie, and Delilah, but the results show that there's no blood relation among the three!"

"What?" Daniel was surprised.

"We all speculated that Jodie is not from the Newhouses." Chris continued. "So it's normal that she's not related to Delilah. But Maisie isn't Delilah's daughter either... Could our speculations have gone wrong?"
