After dinner, Madam Vanderbilt suggested that Nolan and Maisie should stay in the Vanderbilt manor for one night.Maisie wanted to refuse, but Nolan agreed to do so.Madam Vanderbilt was very pleased to see that Nolan was willing to stay. “Mr. Goldman, please let me know at any time if you have any needs. Treat this as your own home.”Seeing that Nolan was ignoring her, the old lady smiled awkwardly.Maisie wanted to say something, but Nolan looked at her and said, “I want to take a look at your former room.”‘My former room?’Maisie was flustered. She had left Vanderbilt manor for six years and had indeed never come back to stay here since then.Stephen opened his lips and said slowly, “Zee’s room has not been touched, so I’ll arrange for someone to clean it up now.”Later on, Maisie arrived at the room she had been living in in the past. The room layout was still the same as before, and many items and furniture had not been moved.It was just that the bed in the room looked
“Nolan doesn’t have pajamas, so I’m here to ask if you have any that fit him.”Stephen smiled. “I just bought one pair some time ago, and I haven’t worn it. I’ll get it for you.”Stephen brought Maisie the new pair of pajamas.When Maisie turned around and was about to leave, Stephen walked out of the room. “Zee.”Maisie turned her head. “What’s the matter?”“It is I who mistreated you.”“…It’s okay, Dad.” Maisie looked down, turned around, and walked toward the room without looking at Stephen’s pale expression.Stephen felt extremely heavy-hearted. Even though he knew that his daughter had yet to forgive him, he was content that she still called him “Dad”.Maisie, who was walking back to the room, saw a woman standing outside the door of her room all of a sudden. It was Linda.She did not know what Linda was saying to Nolan, but it could be seen that she was giving off a bashful and happy expression. She acted extremely cautiously in front of him, but the tiny hint of joy on
Nolan was not planning on making the next move, but he only wanted to go to sleep with her in his arms. “Sleep.”Sensing the man’s even breathing behind her, Maisie relaxed gradually and felt drowsiness taking over her soon.…Maisie and Nolan went downstairs together. Stephen had already prepared breakfast personally. He smiled at the sight of Maisie and Nolan’s arrival. “You’re up. Have some breakfast before you head back.”Maisie made her way to a seat and sat down in front of the table just in time to see the all dressed-up Linda coming downstairs with Madam Vanderbilt. “Zee, did both of you sleep well last night?”Maisie humored Madam Vanderbilt’s enthusiastic inquiry by saying, “Hmm, we slept well.”Madam Vanderbilt cast a look at Linda, who then made her way to Maisie smilingly. “Maisie, may I sit here?”Maisie said, “As you wish.”She pulled out the chair and sat right next to Maisie. Linda said in a friendly yet reserved tone, “Maisie, I’ve only come to the royal c
Madam Vanderbilt blushed in embarrassment and almost turned against Maisie right there and then. On the other hand, Linda felt very uneasy in her heart after hearing that. However, she forced herself to agree with Maisie so she could get closer to Nola. “Maisie, I… I’m really bad at work. I hope that you and your fiance won’t reject me by then.”If one were to describe Willow as a hypocrite, Linda was the real temptress.Maisie smiled and said, “I’ll be stern.”Linda was rendered speechless.Nolan could not help smirking at the sight of Maisie and Linda at loggerheads. It was truly adorable to see his sweet wife determined to scheme against someone. …Linda arrived at the Blackgold Group as she wished. She could not help feeling excited in her heart upon seeing the bustling company. She did not expect Nolan’s company to be so huge. Nolan had truly lived up to his reputation of being an influential, powerful person in the royal capital of Bassburgh. ‘Hmph! As long as I’m wi
Maisie smirked. “If you’re taking pity on her, I may assign her to you.”Nolan lowered his gaze and smiled. He got up, walked toward her, and wrapped an arm around her waist rapidly before taking a few steps forward and pinning her against the door. “What happened to you claiming that you’re not jealous?”Maisie looked at him coldly. She could not stand the sight of Linda’s feigned act of being weaker than Willow. In addition, was it wrong for her to build up Linda’s endurance of hardships?She shoved away his hand. “Don’t be holding and hugging me out of nowhere. It’s inappropriate if seen by others.”“It’s good for them to see too.” As he was speaking, he went for her lips.Maisie was so furious that she bit him. “Will you please behave yourself, Nolan!?”Nolan raised his hand and cupped the back of her head. He pressed his lips against her and pushed his tongue to taste her sweetness. He could obviously feel that she was getting used to his kiss…“Hmm…” Maisie reached for h
Naturally, Leila knew that her daughter was still hung up on Nolan, so she hastily said, “Don’t mind Nolan for now. Do you think you still need to concern yourself with Nolan not being attracted to you when you’re the heiress of the de Armas?”At the mention of this, Willow held her mother’s hand and said, “You’re right, Mom. We must make the Lucas family fully believe that I’m Marina’s daughter. However, I’ll still need to get my hands on the b*tch’s hair so I can use it for the DNA test.”Leila sneered. “That’s easy. The silly girl Linda is working in Blackgold now. We shall send her to handle this task so the little b*tch Maisie won’t suspect us.”…Linda, who had never engaged in manual labor work, was angry and aggrieved after being assigned as an intern in the warehouse. ‘Damn it! Maisie must have done this on purpose!’On the other hand, it was at this time when she received her aunt Leila’s call, so she began complaining to Leila without the slightest hesitation.Leila
Maisie said, “If she bears another male heir for real, perhaps her status in the Vanderbilts will be different in the case of Madam Vanderbilt being pleased and loving the grandson.”‘Aunt Leila is trying to bear a male heir?’Linda expressed her astonishment. She was aware of her grandmother valuing grandsons more than granddaughters all the while.Her deadbeat younger brother had always been highly regarded more than her in Coralia. She was compelled to take on the chores at home despite her young age, while her brother needed not to do anything.Her grandmother had only treated her a little better only when she was about the age to wed. Her grandmother was counting on her to marry into a rich family so she could support her younger brother financially.However, Madam Vanderbilt had no idea that she wanted to marry the rich not because she wanted to support her brother financially but because she wanted to cut loose from being ordered around by her brother.If her aunt were to
“She’s willing to get a DNA test.” Larissa turned to look at him. “When the results come out, you’ll have to accept it no matter what.”Louis shrugged. Ever since Willow had yelled at the two children in the Michelin restaurant and had thrown coffee at someone, he never had a good feeling about her.He had heard his mother talk about his aunt Marina. Given Marina’s upbringing, her child wouldn’t be so uncivilized. But if it was, as his mother said, when the DNA results came out, and they confirmed it, she would be his cousin, even though he still wouldn’t like her. “What did you find out about the designer Zora?”Louis’ eyes darted. “Yes, she’s a luxury jewelry designer named Maisie Vanderbilt. She has something going on with Mr. Goldmann.”Larissa’s eyes darkened. “It’s her?”Willow had told her that she had a stepsister called Maisie, who had worked with Ms. Santiago to frame her. So she was the one behind all the drama online, and she was Nolan Goldmann’s woman? Larissa was
