Maisie smiled.“Now that you've mentioned it, both of them were engaged three years ago. Originally, I wanted them to get married as soon as possible, but I was worried that Louis didn't like Ryleigh at all. Since they've been bonding with each other for three years, I guess it's time to consider their wedding,” Larissa said. She looked at Maisie and continued. “If you two want to wait for them, then let’s do it together next year. I’m sure it’s going to be very lively.”Maisie chuckled and said, “Maybe it’s three families.”Before Larrisa could understand what she was talking about, she received a call from Christina. She picked it up and said, “Christina?”Maisie did not know what Christina had said. She saw that Larrisa froze for a moment before replying in a surprised voice, “Really!?”Both of them chatted for nearly a minute. After that, Larissa laughed and hung up the call. “Seems like a good thing is about to happen to the Bouchers as well. Helios has found himself a girl
The servant led Nolan inside. “Mr. Knowles, your guest is here.”Tristan waved his hand to dismiss them. He then poured a glass of red wine and said, “Seems like you’ve found something regarding the thing that happened on Christmas.”Nolan undid the buttons on his sleeves slowly and replied, “Can you show me your sincerity?”Tristan’s hand froze in the air. He lifted his head to look at Nolan and smiled. “What kind of sincerity are you talking about?”Nolan stood in front of the pool and said, “You’re hiding something from me.”Tristan put the glass on the side and came out of the pool. He put on the bathrobe, and while he was tying the belt, he asked, “What have you found?”Nolan turned his head around to look at him. “The things that your mother did to that kid.”Tristan threw himself on the couch. He pulled a cigar out of a box and took a sniff. “Do you think it’s an accident?”He played with the lighter with his hand, and the fire lit up half of his face. He took a drag fro
Tristan chuckled. “Do you think I'd do it if I weren't sure about it? If I hadn't cut the power, it would have been more than just broken wires.”Nolan frowned. “It wasn’t them who cut the power?”Tristan smiled and replied, “What they wanted was to create an accident, so why would they shut out the lights? The people who could reach the wires had to make at least sure that there would be no accidents before they carried out their plan. Since you're so smart, I'm sure you'll be able to find the answer yourself, Mr. Goldmann.”Nolan fell silent.After a short while, his phone rang. He pulled his phone out to take a look. It was from the school.Nolan answered the call and put the phone near his ear. Nobody knew what they were talking about, but Nolan’s face suddenly turned cold.When he hung up the call, Tristan said, “Seems like they have found the reason the wires snapped?”Nolan rose to his feet and turned around. Just when he was about to leave, he thought of something and st
Cocking her head, Daisie asked, “Why? Is it because Nolly offended someone, and they want to hurt him?”Maisie did not know how to explain it to Daisie. Suddenly, Colton opened his mouth and chimed in, “Nollace has a complicated background, right? There are people who want to take his life.”Maisie opened her mouth, but Colton put the fork and spoon down before she could say anything. “I was the one who wanted to switch roles with him. He should be the one who played the role that night. He originally wanted to switch with another student, but that student didn't want to play the role, so I helped him.”Daisie looked at him in confusion and asked, “What kind of background does Nolly have? Why would anyone want to kill him?”Colton did not say anything.Would he not expose that he had overheard the conversation between his parents in the study room if he said it out?Maisie looked at them and smiled. “After his uncle sorts everything out, you guys will be able to play together aga
Maisie put the ledger on the desk and looked at Lucy. “I’ve thought about it. Let’s purchase two more shop lots.”Lucy was startled. “Are you planning to make Soul Jewelry a chain brand?”Maisie nodded. “I’m turning it into a national chain. We’ll then go global after the brand has stabilized in the country.”‘My original idea was to make Soul one of the top contenders in the jewelry industry and go international, but I’ve changed my mind. I’m not only aiming to propel Soul’s reputation into the global market. The brand will also be picking up a piece of the pie in the international jewelry industry.’“I believe that it’ll be successful.” Lucy smiled and gave herself a pep talk. “I’ll stay in Soul Jewelry and witness the development of our brand. No one will ever get to say that we’re a small company in the future.”Maisie laughed and breathed a sigh of reassurance. “I finally know why Uncle Kennedy would choose you as his assistant. It would be great if everyone could be as energ
Madam Nera laughed. “You don’t have to be this humble when you’re with me. All I’ve done is provide you with the channels. As for Mr. Goldmann, if you really wanted to rely on him, he would have helped you turn Soul into a top gun in the industry long ago.”She then placed her hand on the back of Maisie’s hand. “I have high hopes for you because, despite your ability, you’re very modest and have always kept a low profile, which is completely different from the big names that I’ve met in the past. “It’s always been rather inevitable for many designers to become arrogant after gaining the reputation and identity they’ve always dreamed of. Of course, they’ve put in a lot of effort to attain such glory, so although they’re not as humble as I wish they could be, they’ve already proven themselves with their success. It’s just that their essence has changed.“Once someone possesses fame, status, and power, it’s rare and valuable not to forget their original intention and passion. So, Zee,
‘If they were in love, why would Madam Knowles dislike her son? Was she really in it for the benefits that she would get from the Knowles?‘But if she’s plotting against the Knowles for its assets and property, she should value her son even more. The only thing that would await her in the future was a happy and wealthy life if she were to assist her son in inheriting the Knowles. However, Nolan told me that Tristan’s mother not only doesn’t want to see him, but she also never thought about letting her son inherit the Knowles.‘She’s the one in power among all the Knowles, and everything in the Knowles has to go through her. What kind of woman would have the ambition to occupy all her deceased husband's property and even suppress all the descendants of the Knowles?’Madam Nera shook her head. “I don’t know if they’re in love with each other, but according to what I heard, the Knowles have been in a very chaotic mess ever since Madam Knowles took over the family. So, I can only say th
Tristan pursed his lips tightly and put the arrow down. “Why do you think that I would know?”Nolan smiled. “Even if you don’t know that, Madam Knowles should know that. Her family is from East Winston, isn’t it?”Tristan did not utter a single word.Nolan leaned on the back of the chair and tapped his fingertips against the table. “Actually, you‘ve long suspected that your mother has placed a spy by your side. I think it’s impossible for you not to know that.”After a moment, Tristan chuckled silently. He then straightened his posture and looked at Nolan. “Some troubles in the world cannot be resolved that easily.”“Even if you know that Madam Knowles is the person behind the scheme, she’s your mother, and you don’t have it in you to go against her hard. That’s why it’s natural for you to feel troubled.”Nolan saw through him at first glance. Tristan exchanged gazes with Nolan for a long while and then said sullenly, “I just want to know why she hates me that much, that’s all.”
