“Zee, I’ll always be your aunt. At least, you know that you still have me left in this world.”Maisie smiled and nodded.…Maisie arrived at Soul Jewelry, and she saw Quincy sitting on the couch when she got into the office.Maisie paused and looked around the room. “Quincy, why are you here? Where’s Nolan?”If Quincy were there, so would Nolan. Quincy scratched his face and smiled. “Mr. Goldmann asked me to come and get you.”“Get me?”“Yes, he said he has a surprise for you and that I should bring you over.”Maisie crossed her arms when she saw Quincy acting mysteriously. “What surprise?”“It wouldn’t be a surprise if I told you.” Quincy put out one arm and bowed. “Shall we go, Ms. Vanderbilt?”Maisie smiled. Why was Nolan preparing a surprise instead of working? That made her curious about the ‘surprise’.Nolan made the whole process very mysterious. Not only did she have to be blindfolded on the way there, but Quincy also had to walk her in when she got there.Maisie
Nolan pulled down his tie with a stoic look. The tie fell to the ground, but he didn’t look back.Quincy was taken by surprise. “Mr. Goldman—”Maisie walked out looking sad, so Quincy walked up to her and asked, “What happened to Mr. Goldmann? Weren’t you taking your wedding pictures?”Maisie raised her head. “Wedding pictures?”Quincy explained, “Yes, even though he lost his memory, he was fixated on the fact that you had never taken wedding pictures. He even wanted to get wedding rings. Even though he cannot remember what happened, he still cares about you a lot.”Maisie stood on the spot, curling her fingers.Even when he didn’t remember, he still kept their past in his heart and wanted to make up for it, be it their wedding photos, wedding rings, or his promise of a wedding ceremony.Nolan was angry. Although he hadn’t regained his memories, was he supposed to be turned down because he couldn’t remember their past?Maisie helplessly chuckled. ‘That childish man…’She never
Maisie didn’t say anything. Not long after their call ended, Quincy sent a photo to her. The picture was exactly as Ryleigh had described. Nolan and Maizie were having lunch, and the picture was deliberately taken from an angle that made them look intimate.Maisie scoffed. Had Nolan gotten Quincy to send this to her? Did he want to make her jealous?Quincy waited for a long time for Maisie’s reply, and he started panicking. ‘Is Ms. Vanderbilt going to start ignoring Mr. Goldmann?’Quincy had been concerned when Maizie approached Nolan at the office before that.He immediately walked over to Nolan and bent down to say something into his ear. Nolan’s hand tightened around the wine glass, and his face dropped. Maizie was sitting across from him, enjoying a steak and wine. She smiled and put down the wine glass. “What’s wrong, Nole?”Nolan placed his glass on the table, wiped the corner of his lips with a napkin, and said, “I need to go.”He stood up and was about to leave when M
Nolan’s fingers that were holding her shoulder tightened until Maisie put her hands around his waist and put her cheek to his chest to feel his warm, beating heart.“Zee…”“Are you done being angry?” Maisie glanced at him, looking a little proud. Nolan pressed his thin lips together as if he was being roped in.Maisie adjusted his tie. “Had fun having lunch with Maizie?”Nolan paused and looked away. “Do you know why I was having lunch with her?”“To make me jealous,” Maisie’s eyes were smiling, “I didn’t know if you were really upset with me, so I waited for you to come back to me instead.”“Would it kill you to make the first move?”Nolan felt defeat for the first time, but it probably wasn't the first time it had happened.Maisie kissed his Adam’s apple. He frowned, hugged her waist tightly, and said in a deep voice, “Stop it, Maisie.”However, Maisie pushed him onto the desk, running her delicate fingers over his brow and around his face and features. “You’re not difficu
Maisie lifted her head. “Who’s that?”“Madam Vanderbilt,” Kennedy turned around to look at her and replied, “She has come and caused us quite a lot of trouble in the past three years. Although Vaenna Jewelry has become Soul Jewelry, it's still one of the Vanderbilts’ assets in its core. They thought you were dead, and she insisted on letting her grandson inherit Stephen's assets.”Maisie let out a laugh. As she swirled the pen around in her hand, she said, “After so many years, the Vanderbilts from Coralia haven't changed at all.”Kennedy sighed helplessly. “They're just getting worse and worse. This isn't the first time they came here and made a scene. They even summoned the police, but there was nothing the police could do ειτηερ. After all, you're the legal heir to Stephen’s assets according to his will.”After he finished talking, he looked at Maisie and said, “Are you going to do something?”Maisie slowly rose to her feet and replied, “I’m not going to show myself yet. I want
“Ms. Alice told me to give you guys a good beating since it seems to her that you're pretty looking forward to it. Besides, your grandson has served time in prison before. He should have gotten used to getting beaten up, so he should be a good punching dummy for me to polish my skills.”Hector was frightened and hid behind Madam Vanderbilt. “Grandma, s-she wants to beat me.”“Let’s go. We shouldn't bother ourselves with these barbarians!”Since the person behind Saydie knew about her grandson's imprisonment, Madam Vanderbilt could tell that the woman in front of her was not someone they could mess with.Maisie returned to her office and asked about everything that had happened to the Vanderbilts in Coralia for the past three years. It turned out that the Vanderbilts had been suffering from a slump in profits for the past three years. They couldn't sustain the operation of their hot spring hotel, so they sold it to someone else for $150,000.This amount was not enough for the Vande
“Is it because I’ve lost my memory?” Nolan parted his lips and said, looking as pitiful as a little kid who his parents had abandoned, “Is that why you don’t need me anymore?”Maisie chuckled and threw herself into his arms. She pressed her lips on his ear and said, “Who told you that I don’t need you anymore? I need your heart. I want your body. I want to make every single inch of you mine.”Nolan looked at her intently. Her smile was charming and alluring. It tickled his heart all the time, and every cell in his body was screaming at him to get closer to her.He kissed her forehead and said in a serious manner, “Let’s go home first, and I’m all yours.”The night was getting darker. The light on the bedside table cast a warm yellow light under it. Half of Nolan's face was lit by the light as he ran over Maisie's hair with his finger. Maisie turned around and buried herself in his chest. Then she said, “Nolan, I want to borrow someone from you.”Nolan lowered his head and aske
It seemed to them that the group of people in front of them did not come with good intentions. However, the loan sharks couldn't remember what they had done that offended these people.Maisie took a seat on the couch and asked, “How much money does Yorick owe you guys?”The group of people was stunned. They knew who Yorick was, but they did not expect that he was the reason that Maisie and her gang were here. All of them wondered when Yorick had someone from high society as his supporter.Wearing an ingratiating smile on his face, a man said, “About $70,000.”Maisie put the silver briefcase on the table, and Quincy proceeded to open up the briefcase. The briefcase was filled with notes, and it seemed to them that there was about $150,000 in it. Maisie said expressionlessly, “I’ll pay for his debt. There is $150,000 here. Give me Yorick’s debt contract.”A man went to the desk to look for Yorick’s debt contract. When he found it, he handed it to Maisie with both hands.Maisie
