Chapter 178

Maisie wasn’t afraid of offending the Lucas family. Someone had to be responsible, but she didn’t expect
that Erwin would get the royal lawyer involved.

Still, Mr. Parker would probably inform the Lucas family, so would Erwin be the Lucas family’s next
target?

Kenny paused and slowly replied. “I’m not sure either. I just know that he has a complicated
background.”

Maisie suddenly asked, “Do you know my mother’s identity then?”

Kennedy and Erwin knew her mother. Erwin knew that her mother was a de Arma, but what about
Kennedy?

Kennedy looked down and shook his head. “I don’t know your mother’s past. She never mentioned her
family.”

Maisie wanted to say something, but she received a text.

It was from Nolan!

Maisie walked to his office. Just when she was going to push the door open, she heard a woman’s voice.

She paused. Wasn’t that Linda’s voice?

“Nolan, Maisie doesn’t like me. She asked me to do the heavy lifting. Can I come here”

Maisie, who was standing outside, pressed her lips together, hearing everything clearly.



She had really overestimated Linda. She was just like the others.

Nolan’s voice said, “Why doesn’t Maisie like you?”

“I don’t know. Grandma says that she doesn’t have a good temper and isn’t good at flattery. Grandma
was afraid that she’d make you angry too. She probably doesn’t listen to everything you say, right? But I
would

The office door opened.



When Linda turned around and saw who walked in, her expression changed. She felt so guilty she
couldn’t look Maisie in the eyes.

Maisie walked to the desk, put her hands on them, and said, “You asked me to come over to show me
this?”

Nolan’s lips curled. “What do you think about this?”

Linda nervously explained, “Maisie, that wasn’t what I meant. Help me, Nolan. I—”

“Why should I help you?” Nolan looked cold. “Who do you think you are to me?”

Linda shuddered but still tried to look innocent.

“Furthermore, Maisie and I are very much in love.”

Nolan pulled Maisie into his arms. Maisie was stunned, but he pushed her head down on his shoulder
before she could react.

From an outsider’s point of view, they really did look very much in love!



Linda bit her lip, on the verge of crying.

“I love this temper of hers. It’s adorable.” Nolan hugged her tightly.

Maisie didn’t know what to say.

Linda looked like a clown, so she turned around and left crying.

“Mr. Goldmann, can you let go now?” Maisie said, clenching her jaw.

That man didn’t seem to hear, moving his fingers to her chin, “You heard. Your cousin was being dodgy”

Maisie’s eyes fluttered. She lightly pushed him away and looked at him. “Don’t men love women who are
demure?”

“Who said that?” Nolan narrowed his eyes and hugged her tight. “I like women like you.”

“Nolan, let go of me!” “No.”
