Chapter 807
Maisie did not know what to say. She released Ryleigh, turned around, and walked toward her car. While she was sending Ryleigh back to the academy, Ryleigh asked about the man,” Zee, do you know the man we met just now?”
“Not really,” Maisie replied. She kept her gaze fixed ahead and continued. “He’s Mr. Topaz’s partner, and I know him through Madam Nera.”
It was only then understanding dawned upon Ryleigh. “I see. No wonder I can sense an air of confidence in that man. So, he’s a businessman. Why did he treat you so well? He even wanted to invite you to a meal. Could it be that…”
She paused for two seconds, spun her head around to look at Maisie, and said, “His son has taken a liking to you, and he wants you to be his daughter-in-law?”
Maisie was stumped and caught between laughter and tears. “Do you have any idea what you are talking about, Ryleigh? He knows Nolan and knows that I’m Nolan’s wife, so how is there any chance he would want me to be his daughter-in-law? I don’t even know if he has a son or not. Maybe he has a daughter instead?”
Ryleigh stopped talking as she received a news notification on her phone. She tapped on it and was shocked. Barbara… She’s a murderer?”
Maisie was stunned. She pulled over and took Ryleigh’s phone.
#The murderer from the Chases: She was acquitted due to her strong background and changed her name to “Barbara Chase”, and she has returned #
She clicked on it, and the content was about the fake news about Barbara.
“Zee, what is this all about?” Ryleigh did not know about Barbara’s matter, so she was both shocked and confused when she saw the news.
Maisie returned the phone to her and asked, “Do you believe it?”
Ryleigh shook her head. “Of course I don’t believe it. Barbara isn’t that kind of person.”
“That’s right. This news came out right after what happened to the Chases. I’m guessing that someone couldn’t wait any longer.”
