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
Maisie forced a smile. “It seems that I might have to rise from the dead.”She then grabbed her handbag and got up.Ryleigh stared at her. “Are you heading back already?”“Those people will come to my house and snatch the crown from the queen’s head if I choose not to go back now.” Maisie left without looking back.Ryleigh waved at her. “All hail the queen!”At Blackgold…Maisie and Saydie passed by the front desk. When the receptionists who were chatting at the front desk noticed two silhouettes passing by, they raised their heads one after another.The two figures had headed toward the elevator, and the long-haired woman looked quite familiar, but they could not remember where they had seen her before this.“Does that woman look familiar to you?”“That’s weird. Who gave them the courage to use the elevator that’s dedicated to Mr. Goldmann?”“Holy sh*t!”When the two receptionists noticed something, they immediately trotted toward her.Maisie was about to step into the ele
Maizie and Mr. Hannigan were both taken aback for a moment when they saw the intruder.Maisie threw her handbag on the table, and the metal chain made a crisp clank as it slid across the coffee table.The sudden noise scared Maizie.Maisie sashayed around the desk, walked up to Nolan’s side, turned around, and sat down in his arms. Her eyes were bloodshot as she hit him. “Noles, you b*stard! You told me last night when we were in bed that you’d only marry me! You’re already going back on your own words by thinking about dating someone else!?”Nolan grabbed her hands and glanced at the woman in his arms. “There’s no such thing.”“You were just doing it!” Maisie smacked him on the chest, acting exceptionally aggrieved. “Is it because I am not curvy enough, or am I not beautiful enough? You ungrateful liar!”The office became dead silent all of a sudden.Mr. Hannigan and Maizie’s expressions looked slightly stiff, and even Quincy, who was standing outside the door, was astonished.
Saydie gave him a sideways glance.Quincy then asked with a grin, “Are you thirsty, Ms. Saydie? Do you want a drink?”“No.” Saydie crossed her arms, rejecting Quincy’s kindness without any hesitation.Quincy did not ask again.Nolan buttoned Maisie’s clothes for her while she could not even stand up straight and steadily. He hugged her by her waist to support her and laughed. “What a shameless woman.”She scoffed. “You’re the shameless one here! What do I have to be ashamed of?”Nolan was astonished for a moment, then raised his head to look at her as if he had seen this scene somewhere, and he seemed to have said such a sentence in the past too.When Maisie left the company, Nolan sent her out personally. All the employees inside the company witnessed Nolan wrapping his arms around her shoulders with their own eyes, looking extremely intimate!“My God, am I seeing that right?”“Mr. Goldmann has found himself a new lover?”Those people had different expressions. Everyone knew
Maisie burst into laughter. “Yes, he cheated on me. He cheated on me with me.”Ryleigh was quiet for a few seconds. “Oh, so it’s you. What were you two doing at that time?”“What else could I do?” Maisie stopped writing and raised her gaze. “Everyone in Bassburgh knows that he has divorced me, so if I were to reveal my identity to the public swaggeringly while Nolan is still suffering from amnesia, he’d have to face the media while he can’t remember a thing. How troublesome would that be?”Ryleigh clicked her tongue and said, “Why do you care so much about your amnesiac husband’s feelings now?”Maisie did not say much but instead asked, “I wonder, where did you get this gossip? It hasn’t even appeared on the news or the Internet, yet you’ve already heard about it!”“I was added into a celebrities’ WhatsApp group chat by some of my friends a while back. They were gossiping about this, and I’ve been reading their messages without responding to any of them.”After saying so, Ryleigh
Nolan’s face looked softened under the interlacing white lights and shadows—it was flawless, profound, and attractive that no words could describe his perfection.Maisie walked toward him, lifted her hand, rubbed his eyebrows lightly, and slid her finger down the bridge of his well-defined nose.Nolan frowned, raised his hand, grabbed her wrist, dragged her into his arms, and then slowly opened his eyes to look at her. “You’re really a bad woman.”Maisie chuckled, placed her hands on his shoulders, and leaned closer to him. “How am I a bad woman?”He then wrapped his arms around her waist. “You’re finally done with your work. Are you hungry?”“Yes.” She nodded.Nolan hugged her with a smile, pressed his lips and nose against her neck, and gave off a pregnant smirk. “Are you really hungry?”Maisie pushed against his chest feebly. “Stop fooling around already. I’m really hungry, so hungry that I literally have no strength to do anything now.”Nolan stopped messing around, let go
