The secretary scratched her cheeks. “She didn’t give us a name, but she’s been here for a long time.”Nollace got up suddenly and hurried out of the office, followed by the secretary and Edison.At the lobby…Daisie was sleepy after waiting so long and could not wait any longer, so she got up and left without hesitation.She walked out of the building and reached her arm out to hail a cab. But she was stopped by a figure that appeared behind her, approached, and pulled her back.She was caught off guard and slammed into his arms.Daisie was stunned and raised her head. And judging from Nollace’s heaving chest, it seemed that he had rushed out of the building in order to catch up to her. He then took a few deep breaths and calmed him breathing down. “Why didn’t you call me?”“You didn’t reply when I texted you and weren’t you in a meeting?” Daisie lowered her gaze. “I was afraid that you were busy, and I’d disturb—”Before she could finish speaking, Nollace had already pulled he
“Really?” Nollace looked down and saw that her ears were red, “I’m understanding this as you are not saying what you mean.”Daisie turned around and placed her hand on his chest, her eyes looking elsewhere. “Aren’t you busy?”Nollace rested his forehead against hers. His warm breath blew in her face—it was warm and ticklish. She blinked, and her heart started thumping, then she quietly said, “Go.”Nollace looked at her because her reaction was so simple. She couldn’t resist a little teasing and would blush so easily. She was such an innocent lady. “Daisie…” His deep voice was so seductive.Daisie slowly looked up and was met with a kiss on her lips. She stopped breathing for a few seconds, and her hand on his chest curled up as she was pulled in.Nollace’s kisses made her sink deeper each time. His kisses would make her heart flutter, and she didn’t want it to stop once she drowned in them. Seeing that she wasn’t breathing properly, Nollace let her go and ran his finger ov
Nollace’s eyes filled with love. “Sure.”He got Edison to get the tickets and then went into a cabin while holding Daisie’s hand. The bright neon lights outside reflected on the glass. Daisie stood in front of the window with her hands pressed against the glass. Her heart beat quickly while the lights flickered below. Nollace stared at her face, which was full of delight, and didn’t want the beautiful moment to end. He was glad to just be able to see her like that.“I heard that couples who take a Ferris wheel together end up breaking up, but if they kiss when they’re at the highest point, they will stay together forever, is it true?”Daisie turned to look at him and stared straight into his deep eyes. Nollace never believed the legend of the Ferris wheel because even if it didn’t exist, he would stay with her forever.But when he looked at her innocent face and eyes that were full of hope, he gulped. He put out his hand, held her by her wrist, and pulled her into his arms. “
“You said Ken Pruitt has gotten his hands on my sister?”Nollace stared at him. “The Reeses have fallen, so he would only find another person to leech off. Yorrick ignored him, but if he can get Daisie to join in and solidify his status with the help of the Goldmanns, it will be a different story.”Yorrick Hathaway had seen through his tactics, so Ken couldn't continue with his plan. He might not be able to convince Nolan either. If he wanted a better standing and to get rid of his name as the son of an illegitimate child of royalty, the only way was to use Freyja to get to Daisie. Colton smirked. “He won’t be able to.”The Goldmanns didn’t only have Daisie. There was Waylon and him, and their father was still around, so he wouldn’t be able to get his way. Nollace laughed. “Don’t underestimate him. He’s not as good with straightforward attacks, but you’re not as cunning when it comes to curveballs.”He leaned closer to Colton. “He can’t touch you brothers, so he can only find
Daisie nodded. “Alright.”“Go rest.”Daisie walked into the villa and took a look at Colton, who was outside, then looked down. She balled her hands into fists. The next day, Daisie sat in the seats and watched the students who were late practicing their catwalk. When Ayan came over, he brought drinks for everyone who was practicing and was very friendly. They were all very nice to him too. He kept one bottle of drink, walked toward Daisie, sat down next to her, and handed the bottle to her. “I just bought this.”Daisie took it. “Thanks.”But she didn’t drink it. She just placed it on her right and continued watching the training.Ayan looked at her. “You seem to have been here pretty early.”“I can rest early if I reach early.” Daisie turned around and smiled. “Have you found a partner?”Ayan shrugged, “Not yet.”“I can introduce someone to you.” Daisie smiled. “We have a few girls from my class that are good.”Ayan’s expression froze, but he chuckled in the blink of an
The redhead’s expression changed. “You plan to give me to that devil Matthews?”“It’s because you look so much like Lara Reese.” Ken grabbed her face with no expression. “Matthews loves wild, seductive women like you.”The woman sat on the floor while Ken walked around her. “I’ll arrange for some surgery for you to make your face look as close to Lara as possible. After three months, I’m confident that he’ll be interested in you.”Ken returned to the villa and walked in. Lara sat at the dining table and didn’t look interested in the breakfast that was laid in front of her. She just ate some cereal. The maid walked next to him and lowered her head. “Sir, Ms. Reese cooperated this morning and didn’t make a scene.”Ken nodded. “Leave us.”The maid left, and he walked over to Lara while running his hand along the table, then looked down at her. “You’re finally behaving.”Lara stirred her cereal around with cold eyes.Ken touched her bright blonde curly hair. “What do you think abo
Edison looked at Nollace in surprise. ‘Isn’t this red-haired woman Maggie? The C-Class model who had a scandal with Ken last year?’He remembered that Ken, who was still engaged to Lara last year, was busted by the media for "secretly meeting" with Maggie at a horse farm in a foreign country, and Jonah had been furious about it.After that, Ken stepped forward to explain the whole thing, and everyone put the incident at the back of their minds.Nollace put the magazine down and asked, “He is going to offer you to Mr. Matthews?”Maggie nodded hurriedly. “He's going to turn me into someone who resembles Lara. But I know I'll die once I go to Donald’s side.”Nollace squinted and thought for a few moments. After that, he rose to his feet and asked, “When is he going to do it?”Maggie bit her lips and said, “He has found me a doctor. In about three months.”“You just follow what he wants you to do.”“What?” Maggie was stunned.Nollace then continued indifferently. “I can assure
Ayan went forward and supported her. “Daisie…”Daisie tried to push him away but to no avail.Ayan hurriedly wrapped his arm around her shoulder and said, “You look tired. Let me bring you to get some rest.”A few students noticed their situation and went forward to ask. Ayan smiled and replied, “She isn’t feeling well, so I’m sending her to the infirmary.”The group of students did not say anything afterward.Suddenly, Daisie pushed him away with all her strength, but her knees accidentally knocked the corner of the chair. She hissed, and the pain woke her up slightly. Seizing her chance while she was in possession of herself, she ran out without even taking the script.Ayan picked up the script and said, “I’ll go look after her.”The group of students looked at each other in confusion.Daisie was moving forward slowly with her hands on the wall. The world in her vision was spinning rapidly. She smacked herself on her head several times, and her blood flowed rapidly. Even her
“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
