Maisie smirked. “If you’re taking pity on her, I may assign her to you.”
Nolan lowered his gaze and smiled. He got up, walked toward her, and wrapped an arm around her waist
rapidly before taking a few steps forward and pinning her against the door. “What happened to you
claiming that you’re not jealous?”
Maisie looked at him coldly.
She could not stand the sight of Linda’s feigned act of being weaker than Willow. In addition, was it
wrong for her to build up Linda’s endurance of hardships?
She shoved away his hand. “Don’t be holding and hugging me out of nowhere. It’s inappropriate if seen
by others.”
“It’s good for them to see too.” As he was speaking, he went for her lips.
Maisie was so furious that she bit him. “Will you please behave yourself, Nolan!?”
Nolan raised his hand and cupped the back of her head. He pressed his lips against her and pushed his
tongue to taste her sweetness. He could obviously feel that she was getting used to his kiss….
“Hmm…” Maisie reached for his arms while he wrapped his arms around her body.
There was no telling if it was a trained move.
His kissing skill was becoming more proficient than before.
Maisie felt as if her entire body was within his control. His lips moved away from hers and traveled south.
She felt a gush of fiery heat that was about to engulf her.
After feeling the momentary chill, Maisie recovered from her surprise and stopped his restless hand. “You
b*st*rd, Nolan!”
She bent her knee and delivered an attack while he was kneed after being caught off guard.
The man let out a deep hiss and gnashed his teeth tightly. He felt weak from the intense pain.
“I’m sorry… I was only trying to calm you down.” Maisie panicked at the sight of him turning pale ever so
slightly. She stepped forward to help him up. “Are… Are you alright?”
Nolan gnashed his teeth and laughed due to extreme anger. “Are you really trying to make me
impotent?”
“It’s your fault for suddenly… doing that.”
“If I had the intention to force myself on you, you wouldn’t stand a chance at resisting.” He inhaled a
deep breath. All he wanted to do was to have some fun. However, he did go a little too far earlier, and he
did not expect that the woman would have such a huge reaction.
Did she really dislike being touched by him so badly?
Maisie looked down. She knew that she would not be able to avoid it sooner or later no matter how much
she tried to resist and hide regardless.
She bit her lip and said, “I need some time, at the very least.”
Nolan said nonchalantly, “Alright. I won’t force it on you if you don’t consent to it either. Daisie and the
others will be joining me to head home tomorrow because my father wants to see them.”
He left the office upon saying that.
Maisie made her way to her office desk and slumped down weakly.
She was clueless about Nolan’s feelings for her and had no idea what her apprehension was either. Her
mind was a chaotic mess.
Could it be that she was becoming indecisive after her prolonged stay in the comfort zone in exchange
for dragging Nolan on?
She figured that he should be angry at her for her treatment earlier.
That would be good for her too.
Maisie could not help clenching her fists.”
Before the Vanderbilts’ affair could be resolved and before she could take back her mother’s company,
she could not allow herself to be immersed in his affection.
Willow had spent the night out yesterday and found out from her mother’s complaint upon her return that
the b*tch Maisie had been home with Nolan and had spent the night there.
She bit her nails in anger, yet she counted herself lucky that she had not been home last night.
She feared that the b*tch Maisie would bring up her mother’s issue now.
Willow could not allow the Vanderbilts to know about the issue.
“Willie, Linda seems to have a crush on Nola.” Leila could see the way Linda had been looking at Nolan
last night. Linda had been behaving like a maiden who fell in love for the first time.
Willow’s expression turned displeased upon hearing that. “Linda? Does she think that she’s qualified for
him?”
