Maisie took a good look at the picture and realized that Erwin and her mother were walking in a row, or rather, he was standing at the side behind her. However, it looked as though they were standing in a row because of the angle. If they were lovers, they would be more intimate, but Erwin and her mother didn’t show any signs of intimacy. It even looked as though Erwin was respectful toward her. Who was her mother to Erwin?The laptop was suddenly pushed shut. Maisie turned to look at the man beside her, a little surprised. “That was all you found?”That was it?Nolan’s long arm was resting on the back of the couch, behind where she sat. He leaned in. “Kiss me, and I’ll tell you.”“Never mind. I’ll find out myself.”Maisie was getting up to leave when Nolan pulled her into his arms. She sat down on his lap. That wasn’t a good position to be in. “Nolan, just because this is your office doesn’t mean you can—” Maisie pushed him lightly, but he was holding her tight against
“You’re talking about the de Armas, right?”Seeing that Maisie already knew about it, Erwin nodded and continued without hesitation. “I want to wait until you’ve attained certain achievements in life before I tell you more about her.“Zee, even if you were to know something about her in the future, don’t blame your mother. In fact, your mother loved you very much. She knew that the Vanderbilts would mistreat you after her death, so that’s why I showed up.” Erwin sent Maisie to the door.Maisie got in the car and left after bidding goodbye.Not far away, Willow, who had been following Maisie around the city, was sitting in the car at the moment. She was grasping the steering wheel tightly with both hands and took out her cell phone as soon as she saw Maisie coming out of the strange man’s house.Looking at the photos on her phone, she gave off a wicked expression and smirked.‘B*tch, I finally have something on you!’At the Vanderbilt manor…Leila walked out of the bathroom wear
Willow did not forget to add a sentence. “Don’t be captivated by her lies anymore!” Captivated?Indeed, in her opinion, Nolan had been captivated by Maisie. And Maisie was the seductive vixen who had hooked up with her man and stolen his heart.Maisie crossed her arms, her expression looking indifferent as if the person Willow was talking about was not her.Nolan raised his hand and lifted Maisie’s chin as the corners of his lips twitched slightly. “Is that real?”Maisie did not respond.But in the eyes of all the bystanders, Mr. Goldmann was nowhere near being angry!Maisie sighed. “Yes, I stayed at that man’s place for an hour last night.”Willow did not expect that she would admit it, so she tried to add fuel to the fire. “Nolan, did you hear that? I didn’t lie to you. She’s—”“What did you do in that hour?”“I did everything that was supposed to be done.” Maisie smiled.Everyone present gasped.‘Is she asking for an ugly death!?’Nolan pressed his thin lips together t
…‘I’ve actually fallen to this point!’Maisie returned to her office calmly.‘Thank God, the dbag has left.’“Zee!” As soon as Maisie turned around, she was sturdily bear-hugged by Ryleigh. “Hey, how can you not tell me that you’re no longer working in Vaenna?!”Ryleigh was dumbfounded for a split second, let go of Maisie abruptly, and sniffed her body. “Why do you smell of men’s perfume?”Maisie’s heart trembled, and she looked away calmly. “Really?”“Yes!” Ryleigh sniffed again and frowned slightly. “It’s one of the Gucci colognes, and this fragrance is rather familiar. Ah, isn’t it from Mr. Goldmann—”Maisie pushed her head away. “Are you a dog? Why are you looking for me?”“We haven’t seen each other in quite a while, and you don’t even miss me? Hmph, you really are the type of woman who places her boyfriend before her best friend.” Ryleigh snorted with her arms crossed in front of her chest.Maisie walked to her desk and sat down. “Hehe, aren’t you dating a man too?”“
‘Even Mr. Goldmann was enchanted by her, while Willie has suffered a lot after trying to deal with that b*tch several times!’She thought about it carefully and had the hunch that someone was helping Maisie behind the scenes. Otherwise, how could she be so confident!?‘Even Mr. Goldmann has been deceived.’What surprised her even more was that Erwin, who was quite powerful in the upper-class circle, actually addressed Maisie as his niece!‘Could it be that Erwin is the one who has been helping her from behind the curtains? But Erwin is also in his 40s. He’s about the same age as me. If he’s saying that Maisie is his niece, could it be… That woman, Marina Gonzales!’Leila could not help but fall into deep thought. Having said that, although she had never seen Marina, she had heard about her.‘Marina helped Stephen to establish a foothold in Bassburgh by starting Vaenna Jewelry. It’s conceivable that she was a capable woman.’Unfortunately, Leila really did not know much about her
Colton raised his head, looked at him, and said with his childish voice, “Then why did you still choose to help me?”“Did someone help you?” Louis frowned. “You’re just a little kid, and you dare to talk to a professor like this?”“I’m not just a little kid.” Colton was enraged.Louis moved his hand and gestured to Colton’s height. “You’re only this tall, aren’t you a little kid?”Colton refuted confidently, “It’s not that I can’t grow up anymore!”“Pfft, but you’re just a little kid now.” Louis looked at this kid.‘He’s not only a little smart but also not afraid of me. Not to mention the good results that he obtained in the academy’s rating selection just now. He’s one of a kind.‘But why does his face look so familiar?’“I’m going to practice the piano already. See you around, Professor Lucas.” Colton propped his little arms on his waist and left the scene in tiny steps.Louis watched as the little rugrat walked away.‘I wonder which family this brat is from. He actually p
Why would she want to have more children with a horrible man like this? No way!“Shameless man who could only think about sleeping with me. Dream on!” she mumbled while she was folding up some clothes, planning to go sleep with Daisie instead. Maisie didn’t notice that the man who was leaning against the door with his hands crossed was squinting at her. Nolan wasn’t angry hearing her mumble insults about him because it was true that he did want to sleep with her. When Maisie turned around with the clothes in her arms, her body jolted, and her expression froze. No, she had been too careless!“Done with the scolding?” Nolan’s eyes stared straight at her. She was pretty energetic when she was angry at him. That was quite adorable. Maisie didn’t say anything. She carried the clothes out calmly and said, “I’m going to sleep with Daisie tonight.”Nolan didn’t stop her but smiled helplessly when he watched her walk away. Maisie was worried that the man was going to stick to her
Her father would do anything if she threw a tantrum in the past, but now he was ignoring her. It was all because of Maisie!Laila didn’t say anything, but she was thinking. After Willow finished breakfast, Leila went to Stephen’s study. She wanted to find out what that old man was doing. She didn’t know what to expect before she started prying, but when she found out, she was shocked. It was all things that Marina had left behind!Leila’s eyes turned red. He had been hiding in the study all these days to tidy up the items Marina had left behind!That old man really still missed that dead woman!Leila looked at those items. What surprised her was that there was not a single picture of Marina. They were all random, worthless objects. She had no idea why he wanted to keep them.Suddenly, she found a red wooden box at the bottom of the box. Leila held the box and opened it. There was a very delicate vintage bracelet made with blue agate with a gold rim. The bracelet didn’t
“Daisie.” Leah and Morrison walked up to her with wine glasses. “You look so pretty today.”“Thank you,” Daisie said with a smile.Leah lifted her wine glass. “I propose a toast. Morrison and I wish you a happy marriage.”Daisie clinked glasses with her. “Same goes for you and Morrison.”After the toast, Cameron walked up to Daisie with Waylon. Behind them were Freyja, Colton, Maisie, and Nolan.Maisie raised her hand and caressed her on the cheek. “You were great earlier today.”She giggled. “Really?”Nolan added, “You’ll forever be our dazzling pride, so yes.”Daisie grinned as if she was still the little princess of the family.Nollace came over. “Dad, Mom, a toast to the both of you. Thank you for letting me have Daisie’s hand.”“Consider yourself lucky.” Nolan snorted softly, picked up his wine glass, and clinked glasses with him. “You’d better treat my daughter well from now on.”Nollace glanced at Daisie. “Don’t worry. She’ll forever be my one and only.”Maisie chuck
In order to make way for the wedding carriage, other vehicles had been forbidden from accessing the route from the palace to the cathedral.Daisie looked out of the carriage—the streets were crowded with citizens, and they were all there to witness this grand scene.Nollace, sitting on the side, was wearing a double-breasted dark blue military jacket. He looked tall and broad, and there were two St. Patrick’s Stars on his epaulets, one on each side, a full set of medals on his chest, and other complicated decorations.He held the back of Daisie’s hand and smiled suddenly. “You have sweaty palms.”Daisie looked back at him and responded with a trembling voice, “I’m nervous.”He lifted her hand and kissed the back of her hand. “I’m here, so don’t be nervous. Just take it easy.”Daisie’s gaze landed on his wedding jacket. “You look nice in this uniform.”Nollace chuckled. “And my bride looks stunning too.”Arriving at the cathedral, Nollace was separated from Daisie. Accompanied b
“By the way, where’s Cameron?” asked Morrison.Waylon replied, “She’s accompanying her father on a stroll. I’m going to go meet them already, so I’ll leave you to yourselves for now. You can do whatever you want with your free time.”After saying that, he got up and left the couple.Morrison shook his head. “He’s changed now that he has a wife.”“You’re speaking as if you haven’t changed.” Leah got up instantly and left the restaurant.Morrison put his cup down and caught up to her immediately. “Hey, why would you leave me behind? Wait for me.”Maisie and Saydie came out of the private room and ran into Nolan and Quincy in the corridor.Quincy nodded. “Mrs. Goldmann.”Maisie stopped in front of Nolan, and Nolan grabbed her by her hand. “Have you finished catching up?”“Of course. Didn’t you want to go to the Hathaways’ villa with Dad in the afternoon?”Nolan smiled. “I was waiting for you. We’re just going over to have a meal together.”Quincy walked up to Saydie’s side and
Daisie grinned from ear to ear. “Then I’ll wear this crown on my wedding day, which can be considered an endorsement for my mom’s jewelry company and design.”Nollace hugged her from behind. “You can do anything as long as you like it.”…The members of the Goldmanns arrived in Yaramoor two days before the wedding and stayed in the hotel arranged by Nollace. The royal family had reserved the entire hotel for receiving distinguished guests from Zlokova who came to attend the wedding.Members from the Bouchers and the Lucases showed up, and Sunny was also present.There were also some familiar faces from the Zlokovian entertainment industry. Hannah, Amy, James, and Charlie, who were close friends with Daisie, all came.Leah and Morrison were also on the invitation list.When Maisie came to the restaurant, the waiter led her into a private room.As soon as she saw the man sitting inside, she smiled and exclaimed, “Godfather!”Strix slowly turned around.She had not seen him for
The rest of the people laughed.The night came, and the entire city was shrouded in a mist of neon light. Daisie and Nollace returned to Taylorton after having their dinner.Her hair was wet as she got out of the shower. Nollace took over her towel and helped her to dry her hair.She sat in front of her dresser and looked at the person behind her through the mirror. There was a smile tugging at the corner of her mouth as she said, “Nolly, I’m really looking forward to our wedding.”“Really?” Nollace gently dried the soft tips of her hair. “I’m looking forward to it too.”“I can say that my life is perfect now, right? Since I can marry and walk down the aisle with the man I love the most.”He laughed out loud and leaned down to her ear. “You know what? All the wishes in my life have come true as well.”Daisie turned her head around. “What are your wishes?”“Marry you, give you a wedding, and have our own kids.”She was stunned. Slowly, her face turned red due to her embarrassme
“Yeah, it’s true,” replied Zephir.“It seems like you’ve finally become more mature after coming back from your vacation.” Naomi patted his shoulder. “I wish you all the best in your future endeavors.” He smiled at her but did not say anything.…Soon, it was the end of the month. Their vacation had come to an end, and they returned to Bassburgh.Maisie and Nolan were waiting for them in the courtyard. After getting out of the car, Daisie ran up to them. “Mommy! Daddy!”She hugged both of them.Nolan petted her head and smiled helplessly. “You’re an adult now. You should stop acting like a kid.”She smiled back at them and said, “But I know I’ll always be your kid in your eyes.”Maisie chuckled and looked at the other people. “It seems like you guys had a lot of fun. Anyway, come in first. We should eat together tonight.”Freyja and Cameron went to look for their kids after they went into the house. Charm and her two cousins were staying in the same room. All of them were sl
Nollace looked at them. “What a coincidence.”“Morrison and I were here earlier than you guys,” said Leah. “We only found out that you guys were here when Daisie posted a photo on her Facebook page.”Daisie pulled Leah to the seat and said, “Then you should stay a few more days with us.”After Morrison took his seat, Waylon introduced him to Freyja and Daisie. “She’s my sister-in-law, Freyja, and she’s my sister. Her name is Daisie.”“I’ve seen them before at your wedding,” said Morrison. “Your sister is my wife’s classmate. She has told me before.”“Since when did I become your wife? There’s a chance I may not marry you in the future,” said Leah.“We’re already engaged. If you don’t want to marry me, who else are you going to marry?” Morrison frowned, causing the crowd to break out in a burst of laughter, save for Daisie.She looked at Leah in disbelief and asked, “Engaged? When did you get engaged, Leah?” Leah cleared her throat and replied, “Well, I forgot to inform you abo
The stall owner said, “$10 for three chances.”“$10 for three chances only? That’s expensive,” commented Freyja.The stall owner raised his head and said, “I’m the cheapest around here. Other stalls offer $15 for three chances.” Daisie tugged at Freyja and said, “Let's just give him the money. It isn't easy for them to set up a stall here anyway, so let's have some fun.”After that, she gave $20 to the stall owner and said, “Please give us six hoops.”The stall owner gave her six hoops. She had her eyes set on a bracelet. Although she knew it was fake, it was rather beautiful. She held a hoop and threw it toward the bracelet.However, she did not get it.She threw another two hoops at the bracelet, but her attempts failed, much to her chagrin. She had only three hoops left.Seeing that Daisie was prepared to give up, Cameron took over the rest of the hoops in her hand and said, “Leave it to me.”She squinted and aimed at the bracelet. After that, she threw the hoop at it an
The night of the old town was silent. The air was filled with nothing but the humming of insects. There was a lamp hanging outside of the tent on the grass. The atmosphere was quiet. Daisie was tossing and turning in the sleeping bag as sleep just wouldn't come to her. Suddenly, an arm appeared across her waist as she was brought into a chest. “What’s the matter? You can’t sleep?”“Yeah…” She buried her head in his chest and said, “I want to go to take a leak, but I’m a little bit scared.”Nollace kissed her forehead and said, “I’ll go with you then.”Both of them came out of the tent. Nollace took a flashlight and led Daisie to a row of trees in the distance. Daisie turned her head and said, “You wait for me here.”Nollace nodded. “Just shout my name if you need anything.”She walked into the forest and stopped in front of a tree not far away from Nollace.After she had done her business, she hastily got out of the forest and held tightly to Nollace’s arm. “Alright, let’s go
