‘I would say that she’s not a good mother. She ruthlessly abandoned her daughter back then and never
came back to visit her ever since, not even once. Yet, she’s now disregarding her dignity by kneeling in
front of me for that son of hers.’
“Dad.” Naomi’s voice interrupted the awkward silence in the courtyard, and Patricia stopped crying and
stared at her in a daze.
Anthony glanced at her. “Nelly, did you…”
“I heard everything.” Naomi looked calm, and her eyes looked out of focus as she stared at Patricia, but
it also seemed like she was actually staring at the background behind her. “I’ll do it.”
Not only Anthony but even Patricia was
surprised. “Nelly. you… “Firstly, I’m helping you only because of my dad,” Naomi said softly. “Secondly,
the child is innocent, so I’ll take this as a good deed that I can help with. And in return, I hope that you
can leave both of us alone after the transplantation is completed.”
Patricia froze on the spot and could only agree to Naomi’s terms weakly at the end. Nolan personally
drove Maisie to the jewelry company,
Maisie was astounded when she got the news from Nolan. “Naomi agreed to donate her bone marrow to
Mrs. Gosling’s son?”
He responded with a faint hum while still staring straight ahead. “She did so willingly.”
Maisie pursed her lips and did not say another word.
‘So, Mrs. Gosling only reappeared in the Topazes’ life and approached her daughter because she needs
a matching donor for her son. She left her daughter ruthlessly and gave all her love and care to her son.
‘However, although she was an irresponsible mother to Naomi, the latter still agreed to help her in the
end.’ Nolan freed one hand and held the back of her hand. “We’re both outsiders when it comes to this
matter, so you don’t have to worry too much about their affairs.”
“Who told you that I’m worried about them?” Maisie curled her lips. “Besides. Naomi is Soul Jewelry’s
designer, so I should at least care about my employee as the boss.”
He laughed. “Then you should care more about your husband instead.” “I have nothing to worry about
my husband.” She raised her eyebrows and laughed. “He has a successful career, two sons and a
daughter, and everything that is accompanied by a beautiful and virtuous wife. He’s literally someone
who has it all, so why should I be worried about him?” Nolan laughed. He stopped the car at a traffic light
intersection and turned to look at her. “So, are you saying that you’re a virtuous wife?”
Maisie questioned him with a stern expression, “Am I not?” “Since when can a woman who leaves her
husband at home alone, waiting for her to come home every day, claims that she’s a virtuous wife?”
Nolan lifted the back of her hand and pecked her fingers. “If that’s the definition of the word virtuous, then
shouldn’t I call myself a virtuous husband?” Maisie choked on her own words and looked away
embarrassedly. “That’s because the company has been very busy recently…
This is just a temporary thing. I’ll be at home to accompany you every day when I’m done.” The
merriment in his eyes intensified. “You’re the one who promised me this.” After arriving at Soul, Maisie
had just walked up to the elevator entrance when she saw Samantha rushing in her direction with lunch.
“Zee.”
“Aunt Samantha.” Maisie greeted her with a smile, and her gaze landed on the lunchbox that she was
carrying with her.” Have you brought lunch for Uncle Kennedy?”
Samantha gave off a gentle smile and nodded. “He went out in a hurry this morning and didn’t even have
time to eat breakfast, so I’m worried that he’s starving.”
Maisie sneered. “Judging from Uncle Kennedy’s capability of successfully courting and securing you as
his girlfriend, Uncle Kennedy is indeed an extremely blessed man.”
Her comment amused Samantha successfully. “Young lady, you have quite a sweet mouth.”
The door opened, and the two entered the elevator together. Maisie pressed the floor number and turned
to look at Samantha. “I saw Francisco a while back. It seems that he’s changed a lot.” “That kid has been
admitted to the procuratorate, so it’s time for
him to make a change and act differently. But to be honest, I didn’t even expect him to have grown so
much.” A gratified smile appeared on Samantha’s face when she mentioned her son as he used to be a
nuisance.
