Chapter 129
Nolan narrowed his eyes. “What are you afraid of? Everyone knows that you belong to me.”
He had made it public, so it wasn’t possible they didn’t know.
Maisie pushed his hand away and said proudly, “Can you show me a little respect, please?”
She didn’t want to walk around as ‘Mr. Goldmann’s woman’.
Nolan’s eyes tumed dark.
She didn’t really mind how people thought. It was more like she didn’t want to show affection in front of everyone.
Why was she ashamed of him?
Maisie noticed the weight of the arm and the possessiveness coming from his eyes, so her heart started pounding.
Who knew if this man would kiss her in front of the crowd just to show them that she was his?
That wouldn’t be ideal.
She changed her attitude from being proud to being shy, even a little demure, and whispered,“ We’re in public. Could you at least let me look respectable?”
Nolan paused. He thought she didn’t want to get close to him in public, but it turned out that she just wanted to look respectable.
He scoffed. “Alright, I’ll buy that.”
He let go.
Quincy was stunned.
Was it that easy to convince Mr. Goldmann?
Maisie relaxed. As she was about to leave, she remembered something. Thus, she turned around and asked, “By the way, didn’t you investigate if my mother was linked to Erwin? Did you find anything?”
She had been thinking about that since the night before.
Marina de Arma.
Her mother was from the de Armas? Why had she changed it?
Nolan kept his eyes on her. Her expression showed that she didn’t know anything about her mother’s past. “That means that no one in the Vanderbilt family, including you, knew.”
Had the Vanderbilts known that Stephen’s wife was Marina de Arma, they would have spread the news far and wide. They were related to nobles, after all.
Maisie slowly said, “I-I didn’t know. But what does this have to do with her family name?”
Nolan switched on his laptop and showed her a page.
Maisie saw the picture in the file. It was her younger mother getting off a yacht with Erwin, surrounded by bodyguards in black.
“Uncle Erwin and my mother,”
‘No way! Were Mom and Uncle Erwin in a relationship!?’ Nolan suddenly appeared to be sitting next to her and said quietly, “Look closer.”
