Nolan couldn’t remember Maisie, so by right, she shouldn’t be able to affect him. However, that was not the case in reality. From the moment he had seen her, he was drawn to her like a magnet. He wanted to take care of her, love her, and get closer to her.His heart was pounding rapidly, his pulses went out of control, and his body temperature rose gradually. Maisie could even feel the heat of his body through his hand. Maisie returned to her senses and cupped his face. She parted her cherry red lips slightly and asked, “Are you confessing to me?”Nolan squinted his eyes but did not say anything.Maisie wrapped her hand around his waist and pressed her face on his chest. While she listened to his heartbeat, she continued. “Nolan, I'll wait for the day you remember everything, no matter how long it takes. You still owe me a promise, so you have to get your memory back.”Nolan pressed her thin lip tightly as he moved his hand over her hair that draped over her shoulder in a long ca
Nolan had not been handling the company's affairs for the past three years. They had heard that he was suffering from a serious illness and that he needed to recuperate. Since he had returned, did this mean that he had recovered? Nicholas closed the document and said, “Let's adjourn the meeting.”They nodded and went out of the office.Sitting in the leather chair, Nicholas turned around to look at Nolan and asked, “Can I take this as you’re ready to take over the company now?”Nolan leaned on the couch, rested his arm on the edge of the couch, and replied, “I’ve read all the documents, and I’ve memorized everything I need to remember. I think I’m ready.”Nicholas rose to his feet slowly. “Alright, then. I won’t stop you if you insist. However, a lot of things have changed, and the company isn't the same as when you first took over. If you have any questions, you can always ask Quincy.”He had been 16 years old when he took over Blackgold. He had learned how to manage the compan
Ryleigh froze. Her father had been nagging her about her marriage with Louis, and the only reason he was letting her stay in his house was that he thought she had decided to marry Louis.‘Will my father chase me out of the house if I tell him that I want to cancel the marriage?’She turned back to the couch and sat down. Looking at Louis, she said, “But if it’s your family that canceled the marriage, my father wouldn’t force me to marry you.”Louis’s eyes glimmered. “Everyone in Bassburgh knows about the marriage between our families, so do you think it’s that easy to cancel it? Besides, even if we want to cancel the marriage, your family will get the short end of the stick. Do you think your father would allow something like that to happen?”Ryleigh did not know what to say.Just when she was hemming and hawing, Maisie and Larissa came downstairs. When Larissa saw them, she smiled and said, “Ryleigh, what are you guys talking about?”“Aunt Larissa, I—”“We’re talking about our
Nolan’s expression was dark, and he was dumbfounded when he saw Maisie. Just when Maisie was about to say something, he hugged her and buried his head in her shoulder.Maisie froze but allowed him to hug her. She did not know if she was hallucinating or not, but it seemed to her that Nolan was asking for comfort.She asked, “Nolan?”He tightened his arms and said, “Do you think I'm silly? I can't even remember the area assigned within my own company.”Maisie was stunned, and then she chuckled. It occurred to her that this man had forced himself to act as if nothing happened and come back to seek comfort. “It’s your company. Why do you still have to worry about other people laughing at you?”Nolan pushed her away and grabbed her shoulders. He stared fixedly at her and asked, “What if they laugh at me?”Maisie lifted his chin and raised her eyebrows. “Who dares to laugh at my man?”Nolan looked at her silently. Nobody knew what he was thinking right now. Suddenly, Daisie poked
“Although Grandpa is a stubborn man, he’s always kept the kindness that the Summers had shown him in the past in his mind. He wouldn’t be so biased if Rowena weren’t from the Summers.”Nicholas sighed. “He harbored hatred for the nobles in his mind, not to mention that Rowena kept sowing discord between you and him at his side. That’s why my father wouldn’t let things slide until he saw the truth with his own eyes.”Maisie could understand the implicit meaning behind Nicholas’ words. Titus was no longer obsessed with interfering in Nolan's affairs after the incident that involved Rowena.‘He’s so stubborn that he wouldn’t listen to any advice, so we could only wait for him to see the truth by himself, even though the process of getting to the bottom of the truth almost cost Nolan his life.’The night had come.Nolan and Colton were taking a bath in the bathroom. Colton sat in the bathtub and played with the little yellow duck in his hand.Nolan, who was standing under the shower,
At that moment, Nolan did not sound provocative like he did before he lost his memory. His expression did not change at all as he stared straight at her with his profound eyes. He did not give off any primitive thoughts but sounded extremely serious.Maisie’s heart skipped a beat as she felt a rise in the temperature through her palms that were propping against his body. This meant he was already on the verge of losing control.“Nolan, don’t…”His lips touched her ear as if it was a peck. “I can’t do anything as long as I can’t remember sh*t, can’t I?”Maisie was taken aback.The warm breath that he exhaled wrapped her in a turbulence, and the smile lines found on the corners of his mouth deepened. “Don’t you love to tease me?”Maisie pursed her lips tightly—their ears and temples were so close that she could no longer pretend to be calm.“Zee,” Nolan whispered in her ear, bewitching her, “You’re my wife, and you have to do your part.”He then moved his lips away from her ear a
Many Blackgold employees were discussing the news.“It’s said that Mr. Goldmann left Blackgold three years ago because he was gravely ill. I wonder what kind of illness he has. It’s so serious that he even lost his memory.”“No wonder I heard that Mr. Goldmann was late at the meeting yesterday afternoon because he went to the wrong meeting room. And it was a cleaner who showed him the way.”A female employee who was putting on makeup in front of the mirror looked at them. “The conference room that Mr. Goldmann went to was converted into a reception room a few years ago, and Mr. Goldmann was the one who ordered the change back then.”‘He can’t even remember the conference room that he gave the order to change. Did he lose his memory, or has he lost his soul?’Another female employee sighed. “His wife ran into an accident three years ago, he lost his wife and became seriously ill, and has now lost his memory. Nothing worse could happen to anyone else already.”At the administrative
Louis scoffed. “So you’ve asked me out just to teach me a lesson on behalf of your best friend?”Maisie stopped beating around the bush and asked, “Louis, do you really want to marry Ryleigh?”Louis frowned slightly, but his slender and beautiful slanted eyes did not give off any emotion as they looked extremely calm.Maisie picked up her cup. “I know that both the Hills and Lucases are a great match for each other, and both families are related through previous marriages. That’s the reason the marriage between the two of you is what the elders of both families want to see. But you can’t sacrifice your own happiness because of marriage. Ryleigh is my best friend, and you’re my cousin. You guys are going to be a pain in my *ss whenever you have an argument in the future.“The waiter brought Louis his coffee and put it in front of him.Louis held the cup and looked out the window. “We won’t have any arguments in the future.”Maisie was puzzled.He took a sip of the hot coffee and
