Thomas summoned one of his servants.’Get someone to bring that girl over,”
The servant was taken aback, but he did not ask any further questions and could only go out. Thomas
looked at Nolan again and frowned. “Are you Nolan Goldmann of the Goldmanns?”
He had heard about Nolan, but he had never met him in person, and he seldom paid attention to the
news that originated from the mainland.
Nolan adjusted his clothes, and the chill in his eyes faded a little. “Yes, Elder Master Clifford. And please
understand that hurting your men was never my intention when I traveled here.”
Thomas then asked out of the blue, “What’s your mother’s name?”
Nolan narrowed his eyes. “You should have a very close relationship with Madam Knowles. Didn’t she
tell you my mother’s name?”
Thomas did not respond to that.
Nolan brushed off the dust on his sleeves.” My mother is the adopted daughter of the Knowles, Natasha
Knowles.”
Thomas froze again as if he had fallen into a trance. He lowered his face abruptly and said to them, “You
two, please come in with me.”
Thomas turned around and walked into the manor.
Quincy came to Nolan’s side and asked in a low voice, “Mr. Goldmann, does Elder
Master Clifford want to set us up?’
Nolan did not answer him but stepped forward and entered the manor.
The housekeeper made tea for them while Thomas sat down across from the couch solemnly. “Bringing
that little girl here was just a mistake they made. They were asked to bring that kid from the Knowles
only.”
Nolan’s expression did not change. “Is it a mistake? Or your way of restraining me?”
Thomas paused for a split second, picked up the teacup, and held it in his hand instead of drinking from
it. “I like that little girl very much.”
Before Nolan could react, Daisie had already been brought over.
The little girl saw the people sitting in the living room and sprinted straight over.” Dad!”
Nolan hugged her and looked at her carefully. “Are you hurt?”
“No, those people didn’t do anything to me.” She shook her head and then turned to
look at Thomas. “It’s you, Grandpa Thomas.’
Thomas was sipping tea, and his gaze shifted onto Nolan’s face. “This is all just a misunderstanding, and
we’ve returned this little girl to you unscathed I only ask you not to interfere with the affair between the
Knowles and us.” Daisie asked anxiously before Nolan could say anything, “Why, Grandpa Thomas? Are
you really not going to let Nolly go?”
After saying that, she grabbed Nolan’s hand. “Dad, I volunteered to come here with Nolly. I can’t leave
him here alone.”
Nolan frowned. ‘That brat! What has he done to bewitch my precious baby?’ He suppressed his
emotions and explained indifferently, “Daisie, don’t make this harder for me. Someone else will take care
of him. I am only here to bring you home.” When Daisie heard this, she flung her arm to break free from
Nolan’s grasp. “I’m not going back.”
Nolan’s expression dimmed. “Daisie!”
Even Quincy was worried for her.
“How could this young lady still not understand the situation that we’re in? The Cliffords only want to
abduct Noilace, and Elder Master Clifford had already brought her back to us. Things will get a lot more
complicated for Mr. Goldmann if she insists on interfering with this matter.
Unfortunately, he could not reason with a child, so he could only comfort her anxiously. “Young lady, your
father has come all the way here just to pick you up. As for Young Master Knowles, I’m sure he’ll be fine.”
“You’re lying.” Daisie took a step back with bloodshot eyes. “Those bad guys will never let him go. Nolly
is my friend, and I promised him not to leave him alone. I can’t go back on my word. He’ll be killed if I
don’t care about him.”
“Daisie Vanderbilt, shut up!” Nolan roared a ther, and even Thomas was astonished.
Daisie was taken aback and froze in place a s her father scolded her again. Her father had never been
willing to scold her before this.
Thus, she burst into tears out of grievance while Thomas put down his teacup, not knowing what made
him want to coax the child.
