Chapter 956
Jackie stopped in his tracks. Turning around, he looked at her and asked, “What do you mean?”
Maisie sipped on the wine in the glass, lifted her eyelids to look at him, and said,” My son almost had an accident at school due to an assassination attempt and your car was at the school that day. Thus, I investigated you.”
Jackie gnashed his teeth, and his face turned dark.
Maisie studied his expression secretly. Apparently, Jackie did not know anything about it. However, there was no way he would not know who could drive his car.
She put the glass down and rose to her feet. “Since we used to be classmates, I came here today to have a talk with you.
Sincerely.”
Jackie bumped the back of his teeth with his tongue. He might look like a gentleman on the surface, but only he himself knew that it was nothing more than a disguise.
“What if we can’t talk it out?”
Maisie fixed her gaze on him and said, “If we can’t talk this out, then we have to see what the Cliffords can do to solve this matter for you.”
He walked closer to Maisie and offered her a smile. “Are you threatening me?”
Lifting her eyebrows, Maisie responded with a smile of her own and said, “You can put it that way.”
Jackie stared at Maisie for a long while. The smile on his face slowly broadened as he said, “Seems like I underestimated you when we were still studying at school. How come I didn’t realize that you had this kind of threatening skill before?” Maisie chuckled lightly. “People change, and is it not the same with you as well Mr. Clifford?”
Jackie rose to his feet and dusted his suit. “If you want to talk to me, then I’m free tomorrow morning.”
He slipped a business card that he held in his fingers into her pocket and added, “It’s up to you now.”
He loosened his tie, and his smile disappeared when he turned around. Then, he left without turning his head back.
Tristan had been observing from the sideline. He put the wine glass down and said, “Now you know that there is not a single one from the Cliffords that is easy to deal with, right?”
