Quincy nodded. “It wasn’t Mr. Zhivkov’s room. The person next door seems to know you.”
Nolan squinted and said after a moment, “I guess someone knows that I’m here tonight.” He hugged
Maisie, then kissed her forehead. “Wait for me here. Don’t run around, okay?”
Maisie hesitated before nodding. “Come back soon.”
He smiled and left with Quincy.
Maisie sat in the room alone with some bodyguards outside. Barbara called and asked, “Are you at
Glitz?” “Yes, I met Peter Zhivkov, the man that
Katrina is currently involved with.” Barbara was silent for some time, then said, “I know Peter. My dad
closed down his spa once. So Katrina is trying to get him to do the dirty work.” “He promised that he
wouldn’t help her.” Maisie leaned back on the couch. “His wife has a tight leash on him, so he probably
wouldn’t want to offend the Chases because of a lover.”
“I just got the news that my dad will be stepping down after a week.”
Maisie sat up straight. “After a week? So soon?”
Barbara confirmed. “Peter Zhivkov will not just sit around. Once he finds out that my father is stepping
down, he will definitely quietly help Katrina. He harbors a grudge against my dad because of the spa
incident. The people supporting him are against my dad, so he won’t just watch as my uncle takes my
dad’s place.” Maisie bit her lip. That was bad. If Peter really thought that the Chases had sent them, and
if he found out that Mr. Chase was stepping down after a week, he would…
She didn’t expect Mr. Chase to step down so soon. She was expecting a month’s time.
It seemed like they had miscalculated since Barbara had just gotten the news.
“I’m sorry, Maisie. I shouldn’t have got you involved. I’ll settle all the issues of the Chases from now on.”
Maisie wanted to say something, but Barbara had already hung up.
Maisie waited in the room for half an hour, but Nolan wasn’t back yet.
She heard some commotion in the room next door, so she stood up when someone suddenly rushed in.
Ten strong men subdued the bodyguards waiting outside, and the people who walked in were Peter and
Katrina.
Maisie glared at them. “What is the meaning of this, Mr. Zhivkov?”
Peter looked around the room. “You’re the only one left? I guess your man left you and escaped.”
Katrina stared at Maisie. Even though she was wearing a mask and the lights were dim, she felt as
though she knew her.
She held onto Peter’s arm. “Mr. Zhivkov, was this the woman who threatened you?”
“Exactly!” Peter shot daggers at Maisie. ” Michael Chase is stepping down soon but still wanted to do
this? Does he think that I’m a pushover?”
Maisie knew something was wrong, but the door was blocked, so she didn’t have a way out. If Nolan
came over to save her, his identity would be exposed.
But time was running out.
Peter gave his order before she could think, “Why are you still standing around? Grab that b*tch.”
One of the men was stunned. “Mr. Zhivkov, but it’s the Glitz Club-”
Peter waved his arm impatiently. “If the owner asks, just say someone offended me, and I just wanted to
get back at them. I won’t bring trouble to the club.”
The men took Maisie away. She looked at the few people around her, secretly holding the wine bottle in
her hand, and smashed
the nearest person on the head and arm
