“If you don’t believe me, feel free to check Zen Garden’s surveillance recording. After all, I’m sure you
want to know the thing that Hector would rather resign than tell you, right?”
After saying everything he wanted to say, Nolan rose to his feet and left.
The editor-in-chief was not stupid. He knew that Nolan was there for Hector. Initially, he had just felt it
weird when Hector said something like that to him before he left. However, after what Nolan revealed, he
shuddered and even felt vaguely that his wife must be hiding something from him.
Nolan came out of the fashion magazine company, and Quincy was waiting for him in the car. When he
entered the car, Maisie came closer from the back seat and asked,” Do you think the editor-in-chief will
go look into it?”
Nolan chuckled. “I’ve already made things very clear for him. If he still didn’t get it, then there’s nothing I
could do about it. He deserves to get cheated on by his wife.”
Maisie laughed.
It was better to let Nolan inform the editor-in-chief about his wife’s infidelity than to let Hector tell the
editor-in-chief directly. After all, the editor-in-chief had a stable relationship with his wife, and they had
never had problems with each other after being married for so long He would never believe or even be
able to accept such an absurd reason.
That was why Maisie had not advised Hector to expose everything but to use it as a tool to keep Liam in
check.
If Hector exposed everything precipitately, Liam would definitely say he was lying and try to defend
himself. The editor-in-chief’s wite was not someone to be taken lightly either. At that time, if they joined
forces and accused Hector of defamation, the editor-in -chief might not trust Hector anymore.
Therefore, she had wanted to create an impression that Hector did not dare to tell the secret because
Liam was threatening him. It was only then that the editor-in-chief would become suspicious and
investigate the matter himself,
Nolan pulled her into his arms and said,” So, what is your next step, Zee? I’ll do my best to cooperate
with you”
Gripping at the hem of his cloth, Maisie chuckled lightly. “Next, we’ll split up. You lead the editor-in-chief
to investigate Liam while I’ll go look into the relationship between Linda and Liam.”
Nolan squinted and smiled, “Alright.”
Quincy, who was driving the car, looked at Nolan through the rear mirror and said,” Mr. Goldmann, why
don’t I go do it for you? After all, you still have to go back to the company and”
“Shush it, Quincy. This is between my wife and me, so why do you want to be involved in it? Don’t you
think it’s embarrassing?” Nolan said as he swept a glance at him.
Quincy closed his mouth.
He was wrong.
Nolan was no longer single, and he was no longer the workaholic he used to be.
Three days later, at a coffee shop…
Maisie was sitting in a private room meeting up with a detective that she had hired. The detective was
very efficient. After all, she had spent $15,000 to hire him. As she took over the envelope, she asked,” is
this reliable?”
“Of course it is. You can rest assured, Mrs. Goldmann. We have a lot of connections in our line of work,
and we have our own way of investigating a person.”
Maisie smiled. “Thank you for your hard work.”
“Don’t mention it. If you need my service again, just give me a call.”
After the detective left, Maisie opened up the folder, and there was a stack of documents in it.
Linda had hooked up with Liam in a bar after her divorce from Jimmy, and both of them had stayed under
the same roof for quite a long time. However, Liam was by no means an honest man, and he had a
knack for dealing with women.
He was good at pretending to be a successful businessman to approach those ignorant and innocent
girls. Then, he had another way of dealing with the wives of rich families or gold-diggers.
Liam’s annual salary was $100,000. He could lie his way through those innocent little girls with fake
luxury goods, but this wouldn’t work with those women who had seen the world like those rich wives and
gold-diggers.
He approached those rich wives by becoming their confidante. He went to the length of understanding
their difficulties and talked to them so that they would trust and feel at ease with him. When they got
along happily, he would fabricate a fake identity and tell them how hard his life had been to arouse their
empathy when the time came. Some of them would be generous enough to give him money for the
purpose of investment.
