When Amanda delved into Maisie's background, the results left her disappointed. Maisie, a financially struggling student with family burdens, had little to her history.

In terms of looks, she appeared decent, but compared to Daniel's social circle, she might seem plain. She had delicate features, long hair, a petite figure, and minimal makeup. It appeared there wasn't much more to her than this.

Amanda couldn't fathom how Daniel, used to a high-class lifestyle, could fall for this seemingly unremarkable woman.

Leroy's voice interrupted Amanda's thoughts. "Don't be too hard on yourself. Love isn't always easy to explain. I know you still have feelings for Daniel, but I suggest you move on. This guy isn't someone to mess with."

"But-"

Leroy said, looking serious, "Amanda, I'm telling you this because you're my mentee. Take my words to heart."

Amanda fell silent.

After a while, Leroy spoke in a hushed voice. "Besides, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and that 'plain Jane' isn't exactly plain."

"Don't men like these seemingly fragile, delicate women?"

"Amanda!"

Seeing Leroy genuinely upset, Amanda quickly apologized for her impulsive comment. However, she couldn't let it go and asked, "Back then, she lost her child and almost lost her life... I just can't believe that she and Mr. Quimby could reconcile after such a significant incident."

Leroy frowned. "You... I can't say more. Daniel doesn't want too much revealed."

Amanda continued. "I believe we should investigate this matter further."

Leroy glared at her, saying, "That's enough! You're a journalist. Focus on news, not personal matters!"

He walked away from her.

Amanda rolled her eyes, took out her phone, and prepared to continue her investigation.

After lunch, Daniel took Maisie to a five-star hotel of the Quimby Group. They reached the top floor via the elevator, where Maisie noticed that this level had only one room, with the rest of the space converted into fitness and entertainment facilities. On the rooftop platform, a black helicopter with "Quimby" on the side awaited.

"It's mine," Daniel said, placing his hand on her shoulder and smiling gently. "I've had it checked and maintained by professionals. I'll take you for a ride when it's ready."

Before Maisie could fully process this, he took her hand and led her into the suite.

"You can stay here during your time in Cumulus City."

Maisie was taken aback, saying, "But..."

"I know you don't want to stay at home," Daniel said, holding her hand. "This is my private suite. The exclusive elevator we just took brings you here directly."

Maisie took a deep breath and paced around the room. Like the apartment in Centrolis, there were massive floor-to-ceiling windows with a stunning river view. The furnishings were luxurious but not overly extravagant-everything was just right.

"Staying here will be convenient." Daniel continued. "There's daily housekeeping, and you won't have to worry about anything.

"If you don't want to dine in the restaurant downstairs, you can have your meals delivered. The facilities here are complete, and you can enjoy entertainment or work out. Moreover, it's very private. No outsiders will disturb you, allowing you to focus on your exams."

Maisie turned to him with a sweet smile. "Why are you so considerate?"

Daniel felt a sense of triumph but was soon humbled by a single sentence from Maisie.
