Nolan walked in, pulled out a chair, and sat down, “Are you still not feeling well?”
Maisie shook her head and asked, “Why did you come with Uncle Erwin?”
Nolan’s eyes twitched. “I asked him to come over. I was worried that something might happen to you, so I
told Erwin. I had to be ready.” “Nolan, be honest, were you in Stoslo because of your mother’s incident?”
Maisie asked.
Nolan paused and didn’t answer, but she guessed as much.
She looked down, pressed her lips together, and slowly said, “I’m sorry I got you into this.” Nolan held
her slightly cold hand. “I knew that it was a trap. They deliberately used my mother’s incident to lure me
over because they wanted to eliminate the Goldmanns. I asked Erwin here because if anything
happened to me, no one would dare touch you with him around.”
Maisie’s heart hurt a little.
He had known that it was a trap but still took the risk?
Her eyes twitched. “Why do you want to look into your mother’s incident? Is it because…”
Nolan looked at her for a long while, then parted his lips. “Because my mother’s incident wasn’t related to
the de Armas.” Maisie paused, looking surprised. “How did you find out that it wasn’t related to the de
Armas?”
Even Titus had been under the impression that the de Armas had done it, and when she had mentioned
this to Hernandez, he didn’t explain. He loathed the Goldmanns.
Nolan looked calm. “Rowena said that she worked with them. The de Armas took the fall for what
happened all those years ago.”
It was obvious that Daniel Kent was the one who had lured him. The Kents were from the left-wing party.
The de Armas had left the royals for many years, so if the de Armas really were responsible for what
happened those years before, they would have said something about it.
Furthermore, Maisie was Hernandez’s granddaughter and Nolan’s wife.
Hernadez was in Zlokova at that time, and they chose a time when Hernandez wasn’t in Stoslo to do it.
This proved that the de Armas were definitely framed all those years ago.
Maisie suddenly remembered something. “By the way, there’s something that I find odd.”
Nolan squinted, interested in what she was about to say.
Maisie pondered over it. “When Sir Hernandez asked Louis to see me, he told me that your
greatgrandfather was the one who turned his back against them first by cutting one of his legs and killing
his father.
“Later on, when your grandfather came to see me, I asked him about it. He said that your
greatgrandfather really did hold Hernandez hostage, but he let him go. When he let him walk, his legs
were still fine.”
Nolan’s eyes darkened.
At that moment, Erwin appeared outside the room. “Am I interrupting?”
Nolan slowly got up, tidied up his suit, and turned to look at him. “Mr. Erwin, please help me take care of
Zee.” He turned around and patted Maisie’s head before he walked out. Was this man treating her like a
child?
Erwin walked in when he saw Nolan had left. “Zee, are you alright?” Maisie shook her head. “I was lucky
that Nolan got there quickly.” She remembered something and asked, “Uncle Erwin, do you know those
people?”
Erwin walked to the window. “Yes, they work for the Kents. They’re the most powerful allies to the Stoslo
royals. They’re nobles, just like the de Armas.”
