Chapter 770
Ryleigh and Maisie left the salon. Maisie saw how Ryleigh hung her head and looked lazy, so she put a hand behind
her back and tapped it. “Stand straight, be confident.”
Ryleigh didn’t know if she should laugh or cry. “I’m just going for an interview. Is this necessary?”
Maisie said in a serious tone, “Of course, think about it. A lot of professors at the music academy are young. You
should focus on your presentation. You can’t attend an interview without being serious.”
Ryleigh thought what Maisie said made sense, so she nodded. “You’re right. I’ll stand straight.”
She stood straight.
Maisie chucked and poked her waist. “Be more natural.”
Ryleigh avoided it out of reflex and covered her waist. Maisie wasn’t happy, so she tickled her.
They laughed out loud, ignoring the stares of the passersby.

At the hospital…
Helios walked into Nolan’s room, placing the flowers in his hand into a vase.
Nicholas walked in and saw Helios, then paused. “Helios, you’re here.” Helios turned, looked at him, and nodded.”
Yes, Mr. Goldmann, I’m sorry.”
Nicholas waved his hand. “It’s alright, don’t apologize. I never blamed you.”
.
Nicholas looked at Nolan. “It’s his choice, and I believe he never regretted it, so why would I blame you?”
Helios’ hand balled into a fist.
Nicholas stood next to him and lamented.” You spent a lot of time together when you were children. This kid always
got you into trouble and offended your grandfather. Even his mother and I were really worried that he might be a
bad influence on you.”
Helios loosened his fist, looked down, and smiled. “I don’t think that he’s naughty. I quite miss the times when we
got into trouble together.”

Helios had had to study and learn when he was at home. His grandfather would be very strict with him, and since
his parents were very busy, they pretty much hadn’t had time for him.
The only joy he had had was spending time with Nolan.
They weren’t extremely close because they would always offend each other for no reason.
But when he needed help, Nolan would look like he was taking advantage of him but would still help him.
After Nolan’s mother’s incident, Nolan had stopped playing with Helios.
He had taken over Blackgold while Helios entered the entertainment world, but they knew what was happening with
each others’ lives.
When Helios’ father had thrown his birthday party three years ago, Helios could guess that something had been
going on with Nolan and Maisie when the former gave her a positive ‘evaluation’.
When Helios had first seen Nolan bring Willow to a party nine years ago, everyone had been speculating whether

she was his girlfriend, but Nolan never admitted to it.
But during the party the Bouchers had held three years ago, Nolan’s attitude made Helios notice that, and to test
him out, he had asked Maisie for a dance.
He had got his answer from that-Nolan had had feelings for her.
After that. Ryleigh had brought the two children over, and Helios could immediately tell that both of them looked
exactly like Nolan.
Helios had been aware that Nolan had fallen into a scheme nine years ago, but the woman that had supposedly
saved him was Willow, and Willow didn’t have kids.
Helios knew his cousin Ryleigh well, and Maisie was the closest to her, so he wasn’t surprised when he later found
out that the children were Nolan’s.
The second time Helios had seen Maisie was at the Summerton Auction. He had been aware that Nolan was there
from the start.
That was why he had invited Maisie to the first floor and raised the bid together with Nolan.
