This was the first time Maisie had ever been late for work.

She hurried to the kindergarten’s entrance. Normally, she would greet the security guard, but there was no time for that today. However, when she reached the fingerprint scanner to clock in, she was already one minute late for work.

This upset her greatly. Being late by just one minute meant she would miss out on the perfect attendance bonus for the month.

Maisie returned to the office. The other teachers had already gone to their classes, and she didn’t have any morning classes today. She sat at her desk and took a deep breath.

She couldn’t help but think about last night’s events. She scolded herself for carelessly falling asleep in Daniel’s car—and for such a long time.

When Maisie woke up, it was already morning.

She was wearing his coat, and the car seat had somehow reclined. Daniel was standing outside, smoking a cigarette. The faint dawn light cast a soft glow on his sharp features.

Maisie hurriedly left the car, but she was still in the evening gown she wore last night.

Daniel took her to the Liz-Inn Hotel and arranged a room for her to change her outfit on the way there. When she entered the room, a mall manager was already waiting with sets of suits and dresses from various fashion brands.

Maisie looked down. She was wearing the cream-colored dress suit Daniel had chosen for her. It combined maturity and charm without losing its sweetness. The color complemented her, and it seemed to be custom-made for her.

Maisie’s heart raced. She couldn’t understand why, but that man and his smile had become deeply ingrained in her mind.

Ruth entered the room. “Ms. Squire, you’re here.”
