Chapter 426
Maisie gasped and hissed. “You really have done it. Nolan!”
After a long while, Maisie started to tidy herself up. Nolan chuckled. He then helped Maisie to put on her clothes and said, “You’re getting better and better, Zee. It seems like I’ve taught you well.”
“Yeah. Do you feel proud?” Maisie said, and her cheek puffed like a pufferfish. This man was getting more and more shameless. He even started to do that thing to her!
Seeing that Maisie was starting to put on a show of bad temper, a flicker of affection crossed Nolan’s eyes.
People said that a woman would only start to become clingy and behave in a spoiled manner when she fell in love with a man, and he did see those criteria in her.
He held her in his arms contentedly and said in a low voice, “Alright. I found something today. Rowena knew that my mother was abducted.”
Maisie was stunned. “So she didn’t tell your grandfather?”
Nolan’s eyes turned cold as he replied, “She didn’t tell anyone, including my grandfather and the people in the Night Banquet. She pushed all the blame to Hernandez.”
Maisie fell silent. She thought of Rowena’s face when she had been taken away today. It seemed as if she was asking for help from Nolan, and she appeared as if she was not completely loyal to Daniel. Could it be that Daniel was threatening her with something?
That being said, Maisie would not sympathize with Rowena. She had crossed the line of being a person after everything she did. It was said that one would reap what they sowed, so she deserved it.
When Nolan heard her stomach was gurgling, he froze for a moment before breaking into laughter.
Maisie’s face turned red with embarrassment. She pitched her voice low and said, “It’s all your fault. I told you I’m hungry, but you wouldn’t let me eat.”
Chuckling, Nolan comforted her. “Alright, alright. It’s my fault. To make up for it, I’ll take you to dinner.”
