Saydie dragged her by her hair to Nolan-she was still kneeling on the floor.
After seeing what happened to the men, her face was white as a sheet.
Maisie picked up the phone that was not far from her and saw the paused video, threw it to the ground,
and crushed the screen with her heel
“Please… Please let me go. I won’t do it again.” Channey held back tears and looked extremely sincere
while she begged.
Maisie didn’t show any expressions when she pulled at her collar. “Let you go? Not a chance.”
Chenney’s expression slowly turned to horror.
Maisie scoffed. “You made Ryleigh a scapegoat for a decade and even tried to attack her. Would you let
Ryleigh go if she begged you?”
She couldn’t answer.
Maisie coldly said, “Whatever a woman like you achieved by framing someone else doesn’t belong to
you because you don’t deserve it.” She let go, and Chenney fell back onto the ground. The police rushed
to the scene, and Nolan said something to a police officer. They then took the person sitting on the floor
away.
Chenney was taken away by the police while the police officer spoke to Nolan on one side. He just took
a statement and took her away after that
Maisie stood on the spot and stared while the police car drove away, her hands curling into a fist.
Nolan pulled her into his arms and spoke to her gently, which made her a lot more relaxed.
Maisie blamed herself. “If we got here later, I don’t want to imagine what could have happened.”
Nolan flexed his arm and held her tighter.” It’s alright now. Didn’t we get here on time?” Maisie leaned in
his arms and said, “Was I very fierce just now?”
She had almost assaulted her.
Nolan kissed the top of her head and chuckled. “Were you fierce? You were like a ferocious kitten.”
Maisie looked at him. “Let’s go to the hospital.”
He nodded.
Quincy brought Louis and Ryleigh to the hospital, and Maisie and Nolan got there soon after. Quincy
waited outside.
She rushed forward and asked, “How are they?”
Quincy replied, “Mr. Lucas was more hurt, but Ms. Hill is fine. She was just shocked and has a fever.”
Nolan hugged her. “Go see Ryleigh.”
Maisie nodded and walked toward Ryleigh’s room.
Ryleigh lay in bed looking pale and didn’t have a lot of energy because of her fever.
She saw Maisie sitting next to the bed and pouted. “Zee, did I ugly cry?”
Maisie laughed. “Do you really care if you
ugly cried?”
Ryleigh looked at the ceiling for a long time. “How’s Chenney?”
Maisie stopped smiling. “She’ll get what’s coming for her. This combined with Naomi’s incident, she’s
definitely going to do some time.”
Ryleigh sighed. “I didn’t expect it to be her.” She then remembered something, turned around, and
asked, “By the way, how is Louis?”
Maisie raised her brow. “You finally care about him now?”
Ryleigh lowered her gaze. “He was hurt because he wanted to save me. I can’t just… forget it.”
Maisie smiled but didn’t say anything.
Ryleigh continued. “Don’t let my dad find out. I don’t want him to be sad.
Maisie nodded.
Larissa found out that Louis was admitted to the hospital. She rushed there and bumped into Maisie in
the corridor.
“Zee,” Larissa rushed toward her, “What exactly happened?”
Maisie told her everything, which made Larissa frown. “That’s absurd. How could she do that to my
daughter-in-law!?”
