Chapter 258
Maisie’s expression changed when Nolan was mentioned, but she smiled to avoid making Stephen worry and said,
“I told the kids.”
Stephen nodded.
“Dad, why don’t you hire a housekeeper? If we had a housekeeper, you could have more rest.” Maisie changed the
subject. Stephen waved his hand around, “I’m getting used to having a lot of time on my hands. It’s nice to do
something since I have the time.”
Maisie looked down, but something came to her mind. “Why don’t I let the children come and spend time with you?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYou’ve never seen them.”
Stephen paused but smiled. “Yes, I haven’t met them. Would the children… hate me?”
“No. Even though they’re young, they’re smart.” She wouldn’t have thought of letting the kids visit the Vanderbilt
manor in the past, but things were different now.
The doorbell rang.
Stephen got up to get the door but was stunned when he saw who was at the door. “Mr. Goldmann?” Maisie’s face
dropped when she saw Nolan. ‘He got here quickly. Wasn’t he happily at The Jade Store with Rowena just now?’
Stephen brought him in and was going to say something to Maisie when he saw her put down her spoon and fork
and go upstairs.
Nolan frowned. Was this woman really angry?
“Did something happen between you and Zee?” Stephen asked. Was there a conflict?
Nolan smiled. “No, I’ll go and see her.” Stephen nodded, not getting in his way. He would let them settle if it was just
a minor disagreement.
When Nolan got to Maisie’s room, he saw her folding her blanket. His lips curled, and he walked to her and hugged
her from behind. “Are you really angry?” “Let go.” Maisie gnashed her teeth. “I won’t unless you tell me why you’re
angry. Did I do something, or was it about the agreement this morning?” Nolan, who never questioned much, asked
all kinds of questions to avoid being wrongly accused. Maisie took a deep breath, pulled his hand away, turned
around, and said, “Ask yourself. Why ask me?”
Nolan looked at her, not interested in an argument. He didn’t even care about who was right.“ I’m sorry. It’s not
that I don’t believe in you. I just didn’t want you to suffer in a place like that.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMaisie wanted to say something but swallowed it. She was angry, but was that considered an apology? And he
thought it was about that morning? “Zee, please forgive me. Alright?” Nolan coaxed. The innocent look on his
absolutely handsome face matched with his sincerity shot right into her heart. Maisie didn’t have the heart to scold
him no matter how angry she was. If his attitude were hard like it was before, she probably wouldn’t have felt that
she was wrong. However, she now felt as though she would be wrong to be angry about something that didn’t
matter.
“Why did you come?” Maisie crossed her arms and looked away. She couldn’t understand why she would cave for
this cheater. “Aren’t you going to join the troops? I want to spend the night with you—” Maisie put her finger to his
lips before he could finish and looked at him. “Shouldn’t you let m e rest well knowing that I’m going to join the
troops’ training tomorrow?” She didn’t want to go for the training while feeling sore all over. Nolan held onto her
delicate hand and kissed the back of it. “Alright, I promise that you’ll rest well tonight.”
