“He wouldn’t ask for a divorce for no reason!” Maisie was obviously upset, her eyes red. “Elder Master
Goldmann, I beg you, please let me see him!”
Titus clenched his jaw, but his expression remained.” He made up his mind with the divorce. Why are
you still bothering him? Don’t you think that you’ve gotten him in enough trouble? We won’t challenge the
rights to the children, and Nolan even gave you some of his shares. Isn’t that enough?”.
Maisie’s cold fingers turned pale. Was that what she wanted? No!
Her voice shook. “I just want closure.”
Titus clenched his fist, which he was holding behind his back. When he remembered what his grandson
had been through, his eyes looked cold. “Closure? I never agreed to you being together. I made him ask
for the divorce. You’re not good enough for him.”
If Nolan couldn’t be adamant enough, he would be the ‘bad guy’ who tore them apart.
He gnashed his teeth and said, “Maisie, if you really care about Nolan, accept the divorce. We have
given you enough leeway. If this
goes to court and we force you to end the marriage by law, you will be caught in a tough situation.
“Furthermore, Nolan promised me that he wouldn’t
have anything more to do with you after this. You can hate me, but I won’t see my grandson get hurt
again. Don’t worry, we’ll take care of your kids, but you and Nolan will never work. Why can’t you let go
when he already has?”
Let go? Maisie smiled a sad smile. Her heart felt as though it was cut in half, empty and painful. “Elder
Master Goldmann, at least, let me see him.”
“He won’t see you. Leave.”
He waved his arm dismissively and turned around to go into the mansion without letting her see him.
Maisie looked while the door closed but didn’t leave. The two guards looked at each other and said to
her,” Ma- Ms. Vanderbilt, you
should leave.”
They even changed the way they addressed her. Maisie didn’t move.
The guard didn’t say anything but just left, probably thinking that she would have left after a while.
Quincy stood by the window and looked down sadly a s he felt pain. He turned around to look at the man
who was having a high fever in bed. How could Nolan see her in this state?
The rain started pouring after she stood there for a long time. The sound of the rain covered any noise in
the area, the cold rainwater drenching her face and blending in with her tears.
The piercing cold rain enveloped her while she held her fist tight, not planning to leave.
Titus sat on the chair next to the bed and rested his eyes, his hands crossed on his legs.
Quincy walked to him. “Elder Master Goldmann, Ms. Vanderbilt is still… not leaving.”
Titus slowly opened his eyes, “So what if she hasn’t left? Can Nolan meet her like this?”
Quincy lowered his head.
“If she wants to wait, let her wait.” Titus didn’t soften u p. “She’ll leave when she’s done.”
Quincy frowned. He should send a message to Cherie s o that she can come and take Maisie away.
In the rain, Maisie’s eyes darted, her body no longer warm. She had been waiting for Nolan to show up,
but he never did.
‘Why, Nolan? Why do you have to be so cruel?’
Her vision started to blur, and she leaned backward because her head felt heavy.
Just when Maisie’s head was spinning, someone caught her by her shoulders, and she fell into the
person’s arms. She lost consciousness before she could see who it was.
