Old Master Spencer saw that he was straightforward and didnât want to dwell on the matter any longer. Although there was a minor interlude, theyâre still Spencer familyâs children.So, he immediately changed the topic and lamented, "Right now, of the four Spencer children, one is in the asylum, one is in prison, your second brother promised to have a child, but nothing has happened yet. When are you two going to take action? Iâm old now and wonât live for many days. I still want to see a great-grandchild before I die, or I wonât be at peace in death."
"Moreover, a family canât be without a woman in charge. Aunt Hannah canât manage the house, Little Smith is too young and petty, none of them are as composed as Maya, nor as decisive. If she could take charge, I would feel at ease."
Old Master Spencer said Maya is decisive, which means she understands the bigger picture, acts ruthlessly, is efficient, and is able to support Liam Spencer.
Maya Spencer felt pressured by Old Master Spencer urging her to marry, causing her head to ache. Itâs not that she doesnât want to marry Liam Spencer, but so much has happened this year, making her not in the mood for marriage.
She didnât want to get married when she was feeling down, as it was the most significant event of her life.
Therefore, she bluntly refused, "Grandpa, I donât plan to get married this year. After Ethan Turner turns a year old, Iâll get married. Besides, Liam Spencer and I arenât old, weâre not in a hurry. Youâre in good health and will definitely be able to see your great-grandchild."
Moreover, even if she got married now, she wouldnât have a child immediately. After clearing her body of medication, sheâd need to observe her emotions for a period until sheâs sure everything is fine before having kids. Sheâs afraid of the previous situation happening again, which would cause her to collapse.
Old Master Spencer saw Maya refuse him, and his face suddenly darkened. He was quite disappointed.
He had waited so long, arranged so much, and after seeing them entwine for over three years with no result, Old Master Spencer began to doubt his initial decision and even suspected the two might have secrets, not planning on marriage at all.
So, he sternly looked at Liam and asked, "What do you think?"
"Grandpa, this matter should proceed according to Mayaâs wishes. Getting married next year is not too late, and itâs already November; time flies quickly." Liam knew the Turner siblings were important to Maya, so he wouldnât make things difficult for her.
Moreover, he and Maya, besides not having gone through the ceremony, are already a real couple.
"The night is long, and dreams are many. Get married sooner, and get it done with sooner." Old Master Spencer feared he might not be so lucky next time if he passed out, so he wanted to see them handle it quickly, even if itâs just a ceremony.
"Grandpa, Iâm very close to my third brother, and if I get pregnant before the wedding, I will give birth to the baby." Maya promised to have children in advance to ease the old manâs concerns.
"See, see, just look at your youngstersâ mindset. No wonder Edward and Watt can stir up so much trouble, just because they treat marriage as childâs play." Old Master Spencerâs words were not entirely unreasonable.
Maya listened to Grandpaâs reprimand and was helpless, making a funny face at Liam, indicating her stance was clear, leaving the rest for Liam to handle.
Watching Mayaâs helpless expression, Liam turned to the bedridden Old Master Spencer and said, "Grandpa, I have things at the company, weâll leave now, Iâll have Aunt Hannah come over and accompany you."
Liam feared if they continued to argue over the marriage, Old Master Spencer wouldnât be able to handle it, so he led Maya away.
Old Master Spencer glanced at them, waved his hand generously, and let them go.
On the way back, Liam turned his head to look at Maya in the passenger seat, his brows furrowed, asking, "Maya, next year, you wonât change your mind, right?"
"Rest assured, Iâm stuck with you for this lifetime and wonât change my mind." Maya knew Liam feared Grandpaâs words about the night being long and dreams being many.
Just as Maya finished speaking, her phone rang with a call from Ella Turner.
Maya answered the call, softly asking, "Ella, whatâs wrong?"
"Maya, I want to see you, thereâs something I want to talk to you about."
"Okay, Iâll come to your apartment right away, donât worry."
Half an hour later, Liam dropped Maya off at Ellaâs apartment building, and he went to work.
When Maya pushed open Ellaâs door, she saw Ella holding her phone, sitting motionless on the sofa, and when she turned her head to look at her, Maya saw Ella cry.
Seeing this, Maya quickly walked to the sofa, sat beside Ella, and asked, "Ella, whatâs wrong? Are you missing Ethan Turner?"
Ella shook her head, and Maya realized she was crying over Elijah Reed.
Pulling two tissues from the box on the coffee table, Maya wiped Ellaâs tears, asking, "Have you contacted Elijah Reed? Is he ignoring you again?"
Ella shook her head, saying very sadly, "No, I didnât call Elijah Reed, but weâve already lost contact for a long time, no calls, no texts. Maya, I canât hold on anymore."
Yesterday, Elijah Reed avoided Ella, not even attending Jane Spencerâs case hearing, which made Ella completely give up hope and no longer hope Elijah would come find her.
After that confession, Ella didnât dare to seek Elijah Reed; after all, she couldnât shamelessly beg him again and again, as feelings acquired this way wouldnât last long.
So, she decided to give up.
"Ella, donât worry, how about I go to the company and check his attitudes for you, how do you feel about that?" Maya asked worriedly, seeking her opinion.
"Maya, please donât do this, I want to keep some dignity for myself, not to be looked down upon by him too much. If he doesnât like me, then he doesnât like me. Iâll eventually meet someone who likes me." Ella didnât agree to let Maya intervene on her behalf, fearing complications, embarrassment, or even Elijah Reed accommodating her because of it.
"Ella, if you like Elijah Reed, just go after him! Look at me and Liam Spencer, nearly causing a life-and-death situation, yet arenât we together? You can try again, hold on a bit longer, if it doesnât work, then weâll give up, okay?"
"No. Elijah Reed is very afraid of seeing me, heâs been avoiding me all along, so I wonât make things difficult for him, lest I ruin the image he has of me, thinking of me as a clingy girl, I donât want him to have that impression of me."
"... Maya didnât know how to respond, thinking, isnât the pursuit of love by both genders persistent and relentless? Including Liam and her relationship, if it wasnât for Liamâs assertiveness, how would they be together now?
With so many people in the world, how is it possible for so many just right matches, you like her, and she likes you too? Whether human or animal, isnât it always one who first takes a fancy to the other and then reveals their charms to attract them? Maya was confused.
Seeing Maya at a loss, Ella took a deep breath and calmly said, "Maya, I decided to leave S City, return to my hometown to accompany my parents, and never come back."
Spoiler: Tomorrow night Elijah and Ella will have an outcome~
