Rowena raised her eyes and said, “Ms. Vanderbilt knew that there was an afternoon meeting but insisted
that Nolan spend time with her. He wouldn’t listen no matter how I tried.
“Nolan thinks that I do wrong no matter what I do. If this goes on, Nolan will probably leave the
company.”
A hint of coldness flashed across Rowena’s eyes when Titus stopped polishing.
Titus wasn’t happy with Maisie, to begin with, and what she said definitely pointed to Maisie being the
reason Nolan was neglecting the business.
How could a cunning woman like that become part of the Goldmanns?
Unexpectedly, Titus didn’t show any signs of anger. He handed the china to Mr. Cheshire and said,
“Rowena, you need to understand that Nolan is the CEO of Blackgold. Why would he need Quincy as his
assistant if he had to do everything by himself?”
Rowena’s expression was a little stiff.
“Furthermore, Nolan just wanted to relax. There shouldn’t be a problem if he wanted a day off since he
already married that woman.”
What Titus said shook Rowena “Grandpa, aren’t you unhappy about Ms. Vanderbilt, why,”
Titus pressed his lips together.
There was no point for him to press on since he had already done so much, yet they still did not give up.
“But Ms. Vanderbilt is related to the de Armas. Have you forgotten
“That’s enough.”
Titus cut her off. “Maisie confirmed her place with me. Since I’ve chosen to trust her, I can’t take it back.”
He had already gone back on his word once when he agreed for them to get married after she passed
her assessment with the troops but denied them because she was related to the de Armas.
He would lose all credibility if he did that again.
Rowena bit her líp and didn’t say a word. Why was this happening?
If Titus accepted their marriage, wouldn’t that also mean that he had accepted Maisie as his
granddaughter-in-law?
No! She wasn’t going to let that happen!
Maisie walked on the streets with Nolan holding an ice-cream cone. She tumed to look at the man who
had spent two hours shopping with her and smiled.
“Nolan, how does it feel to shop around with a woman for the first time?”
Nolan smiled, a little helpless. “It’s alright.”
Maisie stopped, turned to look at him, and raised her brows. “Are you tired?”
Nolan narrowed his eyes. “Why?”
“Should I bring you for a good massage?” Maisie pointed toward a massage parlor after saying that.
Nolan’s face turned dark. The woman laughed
He put out his arm and carried her sideways. Maisie was surprised.
“N-Nolan, what-What are you doing? Let me down.” Maisie saw all the eyes on them and felt
embarrassed and angry.
Nolan smiled. “Didn’t you say a good massage? If you give bad service, you’re not getting any sleep
tonight.”
Maisie was rendered speechless.
The next day…
Maisie’s back hurt. She had just been joking, but she almost lost her life in bed.
“Is that true? That’s too much. Mr. Goldmann and Ms. Vanderbilt are a married couple.”
“But I heard that Mr. Goldmann skipped his afternoon meeting for Ms. Vanderbilt.”
