Nollace let off a chuckle and complimented her sarcastically, "You’re very smart, Ms.Livingston."
Zenovia was happy.
"I'll take this as a compliment."
Nollace’s eyes squinted slightly, and he added gloomily and sullenly, "But you’re too presumptuous."
Zenovia was startled.
Nollace got up, walked up to the French window, and stopped in front of the window pane.
"You're in such a hurry to get married to me because of your father."
Zenovia looked at him in surprise.
Nollace then explained calmly, "Your father killed someone, and the police are now onto him.Once the
police discover this matter is related to your father, the Livingstons will be forever condemned back in
Haniston.Your father is anxious about reconciling with me, and the incident that took place at the
banquet has never been his main focus."
"Mr.Knowles, what nonsense are you talking about?" Zenovia was flustered.
‘Father killed that woman whose name is Lisa because she threatened him.He did so only to protect
himself, and there’s nothing wrong with it!’ Nollace looked at her through the window pane and said
with an indifferent and deep tone, "Lisa knew about your father’s secret.That’s why your father wouldn’t
let her live."
Zenovia’s body swayed while her face gradually turned pale.
‘How could he know about this! ?’ Nollace stopped in front of her.
"You guys are the ones who need my help instead of the other way around.But you've been acting too
presumptuously.You can’t even tell the situation that you’re in and chose to provoke me, forcing me into
marrying with the Livingstons?"
Zenovia’s eyes turned bloodshot instantly.
"Nollace, asking you to marry me has nothing to do with this..."
"With the effect of the current predicament that the Livingstons are in, how much longer can your family
maintain its stability? And here you are trying to list out the benefits that your family can bring to me in
order to persuade me.So, what benefits can you bring me? All you want is for me to clean up your
father’s mess, or perhaps you’re looking to use my kinship with the royal family to consolidate the
Livingstons’ presence and position in Haniston?"
His words pierced right through her heart.Zenovia’s body swayed, and she lost balance and staggered
backward.
Nollace’s gaze looked as sharp as a sword.It seemed that nothing could escape his observation.
‘I have to admit that in addition to personally wanting to marry Nollace, I was also thinking about my
father’s incident and the Livingstons’ future.As for Lisa’s incident, once my father’s involvement was
discovered, the consequences would be unimaginable"
Not long after Zenovia left the Knowles mansion, Edison walked into the study and said, "Sir, are you
looking for me?"
Nollace, who was standing in front of the window, turned to look at him.
"Did anything happen to Mr.Livingston?"
Edison replied, "As usual, Mr.Livingston is contacting some of the nobles.Perhaps he’s trying to avoid
the limelight.He hasn’t even contacted Donald so far.By the way, he’s also investigated Mr.Coleman
Goldmann’s identity."
Lisa had unexpectedly died in the hospital, and the police had not gotten to the bottom of the truth.It
was estimated he had bribed some of the employees to tamper with the surveillance system of the
hospital.
Juneau was afraid of being suspected and did not dare to contact Donald.
After all, Donald was the person who had arranged for Lisa to serve him.
However, in addition to Lisa, Colton also knew his secret —that was why he might have also
investigated Colton.Colton was a member of the Goldmanns, so he did not dare to make a move on
him.But when they learned about Daisie’s identity at the banquet, they realized they had unintentionally
offended the Goldmanns.
As such, Juneau could not guarantee that the young master of the Goldmanns would not reveal his
secrets.
Otherwise, Juneau would not have brought Zenovia with him to apologize at this time so that he could
make Zenovia think she had a chance.
As long as Juneau could make Zenovia think Nollace had chosen to get engaged to Daisie because he
was afraid of the Goldmanns and give her the opportunity to sow discord between the Goldmanns and
him so that he would accept the Livingstons’ help, then Juneau’s goal would have been considered
achieved.
Nollace went around the corner of the desk and sat back on the leather chair.His gaze looked
indifferent.
"Continue to keep an eye on Mr.Livingston.By the way, find someone to secretly provide clues to the
police and lead them in Mr.Livingston’s way."
