Chapter 143
Colton responded, “Oh, okay.”
He then scampered out of the room again.
Louis picked up the information on his desk and took a glance at it.
‘Colton… This boy’s last name is Vanderbilt too?’
Nolan had heard that Stephen had come to see Maisie. Nobody knew what he had told her, but it was obvious that Maisie had been a little depressed and had been staying in her office since then.
‘Did Stephen come to make things difficult for her again?’
He went directly to the 16th floor upon thinking of this.
Nolan walked up to her office door and opened it, only to see her curled up on the couch. Her expression looked a little depressed.
She did not even give off her usual reaction when she saw Nolan.
The woman who would swing her claws like a tiny wild cat whenever she met him was sitting quietly as if she was a poor cat that had been abandoned, making Nolan feel a little at a loss.
He walked up to her, looked down at her, and stretched out his hand to rub the top of her head after a long time.
Her eyes moved, and after raising her eyes to look at Nolan, she turned her face slightly away and whispered, “Don’t give me that look… I don’t need your comfort.”
His gaze felt like he was looking at a pitiful person.
Nolan turned around and sat down beside her. “Did you get scolded again?”
“No…”
“Then why did he come looking for you?”
Maisie did not answer his question.
Seeing that Maisie did not answer, Nolan wrapped his arms around her shoulders and let her lie o n his thighs.
Maisie was startled. “What are you doing?”
Probably because of the bewilderment left behind by what her father had said to her earlier today, Maisie did not know what she should believe at this moment.
Nolan looked at the woman who was lying on his thighs and smiled disappointedly. “It seems that it’ll still take some time before I get myself an official wife.”
Maisie quickly sat up and asked, “How can you be so shameless?”
He smiled and took her into his arms. “Because I want you more than prestige.”
Maisie’s cheeks blushed, and she pushed him away furiously. “Go f*ck yourself! Don’t you dare have any perverted thoughts. And let me go…”
Seeing that she had recovered and returned to being her usual self, Nolan only smiled and said nothing.
‘What perverted thoughts can I have? All I want is to marry her legally. Isn’t that a beautiful plan?
Maisie would have slapped him with her shoes if she were to know what he was thinking. But fortunately, there was a knock on the door.
Maisie escaped from his arms, glared at him, and went to open the door.
Quincy stood outside the door and was looking around the office. “Is Mr. Goldmann here?” Nolan got up, walked up to her back, and glared coldly at the person at the door.
