Chapter 945
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, “Noilace 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 again.”
“Will he be in danger?” Daisie asked.
Maisie’s eyelashes twitched, and she replied, “His uncle will protect him. Just like how your father will protect you guys.”
Both of them did not say anything anymore and resumed eating their meal. By the time Nolan came back, it was already 10:00 p.m. When Maisie came out of the kids’ room, she ran into him. He draped his jacket over his arm and loosened his tie with one hand. “Are the kids asleep?”
“Yeah,” Maisie answered as she took over the jacket in his hand. Nolan walked closer to her, lowered his head, and kissed her on the top of her head.
Maisie giggled and slapped his chest gently. “What are you doing?” He grabbed her into his arms and buried his head in her shoulder. He pitched his voice low and laughed. “Whenever I think that I have a
great wife waiting for me at home, I feel that I’m so lucky.” “Aren’t you investigating the incident that happened that day?” Maisie asked as she smoothed out the crease on his shoulder.
Nolan pinched her chin and giggled. “When did you become so insensitive, Zee?”
Maisie coiled her arms around his neck and smiled brightly. “Are you sure you want to talk about that with me here?”
Nolan scooped her up from the floor. “Let’s go back to our room then.”
