“Zee, Nolan’s grandfather didn't approve of you being together, did he?”Maisie was stunned and lowered her head.Stephen understood everything when he saw her reaction. “It's because your mother is from the de Arma family, and the Goldmanns hate the people from the de Arma family, right?”“Dad, who told you that?”Stephen paused for a moment before saying slowly, “It’s Nolan’s grandfather. He asked me to tell you to stay away from Nolan. He told me that bad things will happen to Nolan if you remain by his side. After that, when I sent them away, I was beaten by a masked man in front of the door. That guy threatened me that if you don’t leave Mr. Goldmanns, he would…”Stephen stopped as he did not want to continue anymore. Honestly, he did not want to force his daughter to leave Nolan because of this matter.Maisie set her jaw tightly. She fell silent for a short moment and then rose to her feet. “Dad, get some rest. I'll see you tonight.”After that, she left the ward with a st
Maisie broke into a smile. When she had been in the training camp, Nolan would bring the three rugrats to visit Stephen from time to time. To her surprise, they got along well with their grandfather, and they even had pets.The three of them were playing at the side. Stephen looked at Maisie, who was sitting silently at the side of the bed, and said, “Zee, don’t think too much about me. If you and Mr. Goldmann really love each other, I won’t break you up.”Maisie licked her lips, lowered her head, and said, “Don’t worry about me, Dad. Oh yeah, I plan to merge my Soul Jewelry Studio and Vaenna Jewelry into Soul Jewelry. What do you think?”Stephen was dumbstruck for a moment when he realized that Maisie was asking for his opinion. He paused for a moment before saying, “I'm going to leave it for you to decide. Vaenna is a legacy from your mother. I gave it to you, so you can do whatever you want with it.”After spending some time with her father, Maisie brought her kids back to the v
Nolan was frozen on the spot, and his face was turning grimmer and grimmer with each passing second.The next day, at the Goldmann mansion…Nolan stepped into the living room. When he saw Titus was reading a newspaper on the couch, he walked up to him and asked, “Did you go to see Zee’s father?”Titus harrumphed coldly when he realized that Nolan came back because of this. “I just went to talk to him. Why? Did she complain to you?”“So you sent someone after her father?”“Sent someone after her father?” Titus put the newspaper down and asked, “What do you mean?”He had just informed Stephen of the consequences if his daughter refused to leave his grandson. After all, he needed to rule out any possible danger. He had not sent anyone after him!“After you went to look for Stephen yesterday, he was beaten by someone, and he has been hospitalized since then. Was that not you?” Nolan asked, his face grim.Titus was stunned. ‘Someone beat Stephen, and he has been hospitalized? Ho
The smile in Nolan’s eyes deepened when he heard that she was willing to believe in him. He leaned forward in an attempt to plant his lips on hers.Suddenly, something popped into Maisie’s head, and she raised her hand to stop him.Nolan narrowed his eyes when his wife did not allow him to kiss her.“Did you have anything to do with Willow in the Underground Freeway?”Frowning, Nolan grabbed her hand and replied, “She asked for it. If not, I wouldn't have thrown her to the Underground Freeway. Why do you ask?”Maisie pressed her lips thin and replied, “Do you still remember that Waylon and Daisie were attacked on the Internet? She’s the main culprit.”“Did you go to the Underground Freeway?” Nolan’s face sank. ‘How dare she go to a dangerous place like that alone? What if something happened to her?’ Maisie lifted her brows and replied, “She isn’t in the Underground Freeway anymore.”Nolan was slightly stunned. He parted his thin lips and asked, “Did she escape?”“Exactly.
Morgan picked up the call from Gemini Advertising Inc. and said with an exasperated tone, “You better find out who’s in charge of the equipment, or else, don’t blame us.”He then hung up the phone. He had already understood the situation.Angela had been injured and was admitted to the hospital. It was fortunate that the two children were fine.Helios appeared outside the office and seemed to have heard the conversation from just now. His brows were furrowed as he opened his lips. “What about the two kids?”“They’re by Angela’s side in the hospital.”Helios turned around and left as soon as Morgan said that.At the hospital…The two rugrats stayed by Angela’s side, accompanying her.Daisie still had lingering fears and turned to look at Waylon. “Waylon, will Angela be okay?”Waylon comforted her, “Don’t worry, Angela will be fine.”His tiny brows creased after saying that.‘According to the traces found at the scene, it’s obvious that someone was targeting us.’Helios appea
‘All these hidden dangers seem to revolve around one person—Maisie. It’s as if these incidents were all directed at her.’Nolan called Quincy again on his cell phone. “Get your *ss back here.”Quincy froze. “But Elder Master Goldmann said—”Nolan’s gaze turned gloomy. “He won’t know a thing. I need you to come back and investigate something.”It was only after reading the news update that Maisie learned that Waylon and Daisie had run into an accident when they were filming a commercial.She had been supervising the renovation at Vaenna, so she rushed to the hospital from the company.Seeing that the two children were staying in the ward with Helios, she was slightly relieved.“Mommy!” Daisie dashed and hugged her.Maisie saw that her eyes were bloodshot as if she had cried and felt tormented. “Daisie, did you and Waylon get frightened?”“It was Angela who saved me.” Daisie pouted after she finished speaking. “Did I hurt Angela?”Maisie stopped talking for a split second as he
Seeing that the kid had the guts to glare at her, Rowena tightened the fist that was placed behind her back. She looked in the direction of the old man as if she was hoping that he could show his support toward her.Although Titus’ expression did not look too gleeful, he did not lose his head because the boy talked back to him after all.Helios could already see Titus’ dissatisfaction with Maisie in just a few minutes.There was a faint smile hanging on his lips. “I can understand why Elder Master Goldmann doesn’t like the entertainment industry, but since these two children have made this decision, you can’t just deem that the choice they made was based on the instigation of others. The children have their own thoughts too, don’t they?”A gleam of slyness flashed across Rowena’s eyes upon seeing that Helios was speaking up for Maisie.‘Heh, this woman is really capable. Not only has she hooked up with Nolan, but she also has quite a good relationship with Helios!’She smirked an
Maisie glanced at Nolan, who had been left out on the opposite side of the dining table and looked all sullen and jealous. She kindly fetched a piece of meat and placed it on his plate. “Good boy, we still love you.”Nolan was rendered speechless.‘This sounds inexplicably familiar.’Daisie scooped a large spoonful of mashed potatoes and looked at Nolan with her glowing eyes. “Daddy, Uncle Helios said today that Grandma is also from the entertainment industry. Why haven’t we met Grandma?”Daisie had just finished asking, and the atmosphere at the dinner table became a little strange all of a sudden.Maisie lowered her eyelids.‘He probably doesn’t want to talk about his mother.’But what she did not expect was that Nolan still answered Daisie’s question, “Yes, but your grandma is no longer here.”The three rugrats were dumbfounded.That could mean two things—one was that she was not staying here with them, and the other was that she was no longer with them in this world.Mais
“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
