The manager’s face turned pale when he saw Nolan. It was only now he realized that Colton and Daisie
were Nolan’s kids.
Jodie was stunned as well.
The man standing in front of her was handsome. He had an aloof temperament, and the expensive
custom -made suit he put on fit his body like a glove. There was not a single wrinkle, and it appeared to
her that he was wealthy.
Ryleigh walked over to Nolan and said, “I didn’t know you were here, Mr. Goldmann. Right on time.
Daisie was getting bullied.”
The manager pushed the waiter away and approached Nolan. He nodded at him and said, “Mr.
Goldmann, 1 ‘m truly sorry to have caused your daughter to have such an
unpleasant experience.”
‘Mr. Goldmann? He’s the famous Mr. Goldmann from the Goldmanns!?’
Jodie staggered, and her face turned as pale as a sheet of paper.
Nolan looked at her coldly and asked,” What did you say just now?”
Jodie was stunned. Nolan was just staring at her silently, and a chill rushed down her spine. Her
shoulders trembled as she said,” I-I didn’t say anything…”
“Really?” Nolan’s gaze turned cold, and he glanced at Quincy. “Slap her.”
Quincy was someone who refused to hit women, but he couldn’t ignore Nolan’s order. He walked over to
Jodie, and before she could do anything, he gave a slap on her cheek, sending her tumbling to the floor.
For a moment, Jodie’s head was buzzing. Her hair became disheveled, and her cheek was swollen.
Ryleigh felt it must be very painful after seeing her receive such a heavy slap on her cheek. At the same
time, she felt she deserved it. Who told her to speak nonsense and call Nolan’s daughter a thief?
She should feel lucky that it was not Maisie who had come here. If Maisie were here, Ryleigh was
confident that she would have hit her even harder than Quincy.
Nolan shot a glance at the woman on the floor. “Mind your mouth next time.”
After that, he left with Daisie and Colton. The manager and the waiter sent them off respectfully. Ryleigh
looked at Jodie, who was in a mess on the floor right now and shook her head before leaving as well.
Since Jodie had infuriated Nolan, the manager wouldn’t go easy on her anymore. He ordered his staff
and kicked her out of the restaurant.
After Jodie was kicked out of the restaurant, she clenched her fists so tightly that her nails had stabbed
into her palms when she noticed the strange gazes from the people around her.
It was Ryleigh’s fault. She would never have infuriated Nolan if it hadn’t been for her. She swore that
after becoming Yorrick’s woman, she would make sure Ryleigh would pay her back for everything she
had done to her.
Inside a car that was parked not far away from the restaurant…

The bodyguard sitting in the driver’s seat looked at the rear mirror and said, “I didn’t expect that she
would have the guts to come here.” Yorrick rolled the window up and replied, “She’s just another stupid
woman. I was just joking with her, and she took it for real.”
She was just an arrogant woman who thought she was smart enough to play hard to get with him.
Initially, he indeed found her interesting, but as time went on, he slowly became tired of her. The
bodyguard took a look at his watch and said, “Sir, Mr. Topaz is waiting for us at Eastwood Enterprise.”
“Let’s go then,” Yorrick replied.
The bodyguard stomped on the accelerator and went away.
At Eastwood Enterprise…
Anthony and his secretary were waiting in the VIP room. After waiting for a long while, they saw Yorrick
show up late with his men.
Anthony rose to his feet and greeted him.” Mr. Hathaway.” Yorrick offered him a smile and replied,” I’m
sorry. Something came up, and I had to deal with it.”
After that, he sat on the couch and waved his hand. “Have a seat.”
Anthony took his seat as well while the secretary made Yorrick a cup of tea.
Yorrick leaned against the back of the chair. When he saw how stiff Anthony was, he smiled. “We’re just
going to talk about our cooperation, so relax.”
Anthony maintained the smile on his face and said, “May I know the reason why you want to take over
Mr. Knowles’ project, Mr. Hathaway?”
