“After all, the Knowles brought up my mother,“ Nolan replied flatly. He did not like the Knowles, but he couldn’t deny that it was the Knowles that had raised his mother despite the fact they raised her for a purpose.Madam Hathaway frowned and said, “I don’t know much about the Knowles, but from what Yorrick has said, it has something to do with their heir.”“Heir?” Nolan frowned. “I thought the Knowles only had one heir?”Madam Hathaway told him that Elder Master Knowles had two sons, but they were not born from the same mother. The son of his first wife was Sam, and he was Rick's father. After Elder Master Knowles’ first wife passed away, he married another woman who was about the same age as his eldest son and gave birth to Tristan. Therefore, Tristan was 8 years older than his nephew, Rick. Generally speaking, Nollace should be the heir since he was Sam's eldest grandson. However, Tristan’s mother, the second wife of Elder Master Knowles, didn’t want Nollace to lead the Knowl
Nollace scoffed. “If everything needs to be done by the class president, then why do we need a vice class president?”Colton stood up with his arms propped against the desk and was about to refute when a piece of chalk hit the back of his head.Daisie glanced at him with her arms akimbo. “Colton, don’t be lazy. We’re all busy with our tasks.”The other students dared not ask Colton to carry his own weight, but Daisie was different.He clicked his tongue, picked up the ornaments that were lying on the desk, and glared at Nollace. “Alright, alright, I only need to hang the decorations, don’t I?”Lisa, who was helping out beside Daisie, chuckled softly. “Is Colton still feeling a little unreconciled because he lost to Nollace in the class president election?”Before Nollace had been transferred to the school, Colton was the top student in the class, and no one else could go against him in terms of grades.However, after Nollace got transferred to the class, he was dethroned from be
“Nolly, is your arm okay?”Upon seeing that his sister had left him instantly to care about Nollace again, the corners of Colton’s lips twitched.‘I’m just her brother, who’s nowhere near as respectable as that cousin of hers.’Nollace smiled at her. “I’m fine.”She lowered her head and said, “Thank you for saving Colton. Mom once said that a life-saving grace should be repaid with one’s body. You’ve saved Colton, so he should repay you with his body when he grows up.”Nollace was out of words.Colton almost vomited a mouthful of blood and hurriedly grabbed Daisie to cover her mouth. “Are you dumb? I’m a boy, and he’s a boy too. How could I possibly repay him with my body?”She tilted her head and asked, “Can’t a boy do so with other boys?”The two boys replied in unison, “No!”Colton and Nollace looked at each other for a while, and they turned their faces away with a snort.Daisie thought of something and asked, “By the way, aren’t there two people holding the ladder? Why d
Maisie had just sent Saydie to the airport and was watching her leave when she suddenly received a call from Barbara.She answered the call and heard a very loud and noisy voice coming from the other end of the call before she could even speak, and that included Barbara’s voice and a man’s threatening voice.She realized that things were not looking too good, and before she could listen to the conversation more closely, the call was hung up instantly.Maisie tried calling the number again, but the cell phone was no longer in service. She realized something and quickly dialed Quincy’s number.On the other side, Johnny kicked Barbara’s cell phone away from her. The phone hit the wall, the screen shattered, and it was completely shattered.He stepped forward and grabbed Barbara by her hair, forcing her to raise her head and look directly at him. “You actually made a call secretly. Who do you think would come to your rescue, those two women from last time?”Barbara’s face turned pale
Maisie’s eyes were bloodshot, and she picked up the vase on the table and was about to smash it at him.Quincy stepped forward in time to stop her. “Mrs. Goldmnn, he’ll die if this continues.”Maisie scoffed. “Such scums should suffer a long and painful death over and over again.”“You will get in trouble if he dies. You can’t risk that, can you? Leave this person to me, and you can take care of Ms. Chase.” Quincy knew that Maisie had lost her cool. She would have smashed this scumbag to death if he had not stopped her.Maisie finally calmed down a little. She threw the vase down, turned around, and came to Barbara’s side.Barbara had curled herself up on the couch in the torn clothes, her body still trembling out of fear.Maisie draped her coat on her, took her out of the private room, and comforted her softly, “It’s alright, you’re fine now.”Barbara’s legs were weak, and her face still looked pallid. Although she had escaped the incident, there was still a lingering fear deep
Johnny was stunned and did not speak.Maisie looked at her fingernails and said casually, “It seems that it was their mistake for not making you stay in prison for the rest of your life for what happened back then.”Johnny’s expression changed slightly, and he mistook Maisie for the person who had helped Barbara back then. “What happened back then… What happened back then was set up by Katrina. We were just her pawns.”Maisie lifted her gaze and stared at him, giving him an eerie feeling. “I admit, I only wanted to vent my anger. That’s why I went looking for Katrina and asked her to compensate us with some money. After all, that b*tch was the one who got us in prison.“But after that b*tch died, I could only…”She squinted slightly, and her eyes looked sharp. “Katrina died because of money. Could it be that the money was for you?”Johnny faltered. “I-I did ask her for money, but her death has nothing to do with me. I don’t even know why and how she died inexplicably.”“How much
Nolan heard some noise and lifted his eyelids slightly. “I’m back.”Maisie sat down next to him, leaned her head against his shoulder, looking exhausted, and responded, “Uh-huh.”Nolan raised his hand and rubbed the top of her head. “Isn’t it over already?”“Yeah.” Maisie’s eyes drooped slightly. “I’ve punished them, and I seem to have become an evil person.”He turned his head to look at her and smirked. “Then am I not evil?”Maisie rested her chin on his shoulder, looked up at him, and chuckled knowing that he was coaxing her. “Then how much do you think I’ve learned from you?”Nolan kissed her and rubbed her cheek with his palm. “You’ve given him a taste of his own medicine. You’ve done well.”After that, Johnny was sent to the hospital. He got what he deserved as he became extremely disgusted by anything that was related to sex—he could not even have a hard-on ever since.Barbara did not plan to sue him after learning about his condition. Thus, she left Bussburgh after bein
