Maisie coldly stared at him and immediately left the restaurant.
Daniel finished the wine in his glass, put it down, and said to the person behind him, “Go look into her
relationship with Nolan.”
Maisie got into the car and immediately got a call from Nolan. She smiled and answered, “Your acting
was on point.”
Nolan said in a low voice with a hint of jealousy,”
s
Don’t dine with him, come back now.”
“No,” Maisie raised her brow, “I’ll go back when I’m done with dinner.”
“You-”
Maisie ended the call before Nolan could finish. She got Saydie to slow down and took a long time to get
to the East Island Villa.
Saydie was used to her visits to the East Island Villa and didn’t question it.
Maisie walked into the villa and bumped into Quincy coming down from upstairs. He smiled awkwardly.”
You’re here, Ms. Vanderbilt, Mr. Goldmann is… in the room. He looks angry.”
“Angry?” Maisie paused and looked at him. “Nothing a little shower of love won’t solve.”
Quincy was rendered speechless. This was the same way Nolan would act a long time ago.
He walked forward and looked toward Saydie who had her hand in her pocket. She had a cold poker
face on and exuded a vibe that would repel anyone from getting close to her.
When Maisie stepped through the doorway of the room, a strong arm pulled her into his arms while a
face was buried on her neck. “You did that to make me angry, didn’t you?”
Maisie had done her part, so why would she stay and have dinner with that man?
“You’re so weak right now, how would I have the heart to make you angry?”
She turned to look at him and winked. “But seeing that your acting was quite good, you should be
rewarded.”
She stood on her toes to kiss his cheek upon saying that.
Nolan paused and stared at her quietly. After a long time, he looked down. “Daniel isn’t a trusting person.
He will definitely look into us and might not believe that our relationship has really ended.”
“He can go ahead and investigate. Doesn’t everyone in Bassburgh know about our divorce?”
Nolan’s eyes froze when she mentioned that. He subconsciously held her tight and said in a low voice,”
Zee, would you believe that I wasn’t the one who announced our divorce?”
Maisie paused and subconsciously said, “Yes.” She was surprised as to why she could believe him just
like that.
Nolan turned her around and held her face in his hands. “I love you, Zee.”
Maisie was surprised, and her eyes wavered. “What… did you say?”
“I love you. It’s something I’ve wanted to say three years ago.” Nolan looked deep into her eyes. “I’m
afraid that if I don’t say it now, I won’ t get the chance to.”
His love for her was bone-deep, a love that he would sacrifice his life for.
“I’ve been like a zombie for the past three years without you by my side. I didn’t have a reason to live on.
If it weren’t for the kids or to look for you, I might not have survived.”
Nolan would want to see her one last time even if he was dying, but he was also afraid of dying in front of
her.
Maisie’s soft heart was touched. She shuddered, afraid that if she blinked, something might escape her
eyes.
He lowered his head and gently kissed her tears away until he got to her lips.
Maisie was fully submerged in it when she put her hands behind his neck to feel his presence.
If Nolan didn’t love her that much in the beginning or treated her badly, she wouldn’t have found it so
hard to leave him. However, he had never hidden his love for her, and his love never ended. The first
person to fall would lose, and it would be a thorough loss.
