“Even if I did see, is that something I should be surprised about?” Maisie shrugged and smiled.
Nolan squinted and walked past her, “I guess you wouldn’t mind.” So there was no point explaining. Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
Maisie was rooted on the spot. After Nolan said that, she felt a prick in her heart. It was very uncomfortable.
She held her first. Yes, she didn’t mind. There shouldn’t be anything going on between them.
She didn’t know that the three kids had seen everything. Their parents’ relationship was on ‘red alert!
Mr. Goldmann Sr. stood behind the three of them, lightly patting their heads.
After Maisie walked away, the three said, “Grandpa, what should we do if Mommy won’t accept Daddy?”
Mr. Goldmann St. understood what was happening. “Then the problem would be your mother. Why wouldn’t she accept him? It’s probably because she is uncertain.”
She was still uncertain whether Nolan was the person she could rely on, so she was feeling really insecure about love, marriage, and building a family.
He didn’t know what the girl had gone through.
“I saw Daddy speaking to a woman today. Do you think Mommy saw it and thought that Daddy was fooling around?”
Waylon’s words stunned Mr. Goldmann Sr., but he suddenly smiled. “Probably, but don’t worry, Aunt Cherie wouldn’t be interested in a man like your daddy.”
Mr. Goldmann Sr. probably knew her very well to say that. He had been running a business for so many years, so he had had enough experience to know.
The three Lawsons had grown up among the troops and known Nolan since they were children. They were all good at different things.
Hans was impulsive but was brave and loyal. Elder Master Goldmann trusted him dearly. Quincy was detail-oriented and could get anything done well. That was why Nolan had chosen him to work in Blackgold.
Cherie, the youngest, was brave, straightforward, and carefree. Even Elder Master Goldmann couldn’t hold her back, let alone Nolan, so she stayed in the troops.
The three rugrats were surprised. There were women who were not interested in their father!
“I have an idea.” The two others and Mr. Goldmann Si. looked at Waylon after he said that.
He put one hand below his chin and continued. “If this works, Mommy will believe that Daddy is serious about her.”
Seeing him acting like an adult, Mr. Goldmann Sr. narrowed his eyes. “What idea would a little kid have?”
Wayson said, “But the plan might hurt Daddy.”
The next day…
Maisie hadn’t slept well. She walked downstairs tired and saw the maid serving breakfast to Mr.
Goldmann Sr., Daisie, and Colton.
“I’m sorry I slept in.”
Sleeping in at someone else’s home and only getting up during mealtime was rude, and Maisie knew it.
Mr. Goldmann St. was an understanding man. “It’s alright, you’re just not used to being here. It’s normal not to sleep well. Sit down and have breakfast with us.”
Maisie pulled out the chair and sat down, but Nolan and Waylon weren’t there.
“Where’s Waylon?”
“Mommy, he went out with Daddy and Aunt Cherie early this morning.”
When Colton mentioned Cherie, Maisie’s expression slightly changed.
Daisie looked at Mr. Goldmann Sr.
Mr. Goldmann Sr. smiled and said, “Maisie, don’t worry about Nolan. Cherie is Quincy’s sister, and they have an older brother, Hans. The three of them have been with Nolan since they were children and were part of the troops.”
