Chapter 371

In the night, at Blue Bay villa…

Maisie made dinner, and for a moment, she was lost in the conversation that she had had with Erwin in
the afternoon. Soon, she recovered from the trance and realized that she did not see Nolan come
downstairs. Thus, Maisie went to the study and heard Nolan’s voice when she was about to knock on the
door.

“An engine failure caused it? Are you sure?”

Maisie’s raised hand was retracted slowly.

‘What engine failure is he talking about?’

“Mr. Winters hasn’t woken up yet?

“Okay, I got it.

“You should cooperate with the police’s investigation first to see if the couple had contacted anyone
before the accident or if there, was any trace of money transfer in their bank account.”

Nolan ended the call, tumed his head, and saw Maisie pushing the door to come in Seeing Maisie’s
expression, he slowly opened his tightly pursed lips. “Zee, you-”

I heard it all,” Maisie interrupted him calmly “Has that couple run into an accident?”

Nolan walked up to her, grabbed her shoulders lightly, and said with a solemn expression, “Yeah, the
police are now investigating the cause of the accident, and I’ve asked Quincy to look into it.”

Maisie lowered her gaze as her eyes tumed gloomy. She seemed a little powerless.

‘Did they die just like that?’



“Zee, Mr. Winters is still alive. It’s just that we still don’t know when he’ll wake up. He’s smart, I’ll give him
that. He deliberately leaked his location when he left. That’s how our men arrived in time to save his life.”

Maisie’s eyelashes twitched “Is she the one who did it?”

Nolan’s eyes tumed slightly cold. “Rowena has an alibi. Two people managed to flee the scene, so it’s
obvious that they were fully prepared But they can’t run very far. I’ve already asked Hans to seal the city
secretly.”

She then asked, “Do they know that Mr. Winters is still alive?”



“They don’t.” Nolan tucked the hair that was dangling on her cheek behind her ear. “I tested Rowena
earlier today, and she thinks that the Winters are both dead. I didn’t let anyone disclose the fact that Mr.
Winters is still alive, so no one knows.”

Maisie raised her eyes to look at him. “Did you already learn about it some time ago and were not
planning to tell me?”

Nolan was stunned for a split second and then explained with a hint of helplessness in his eyes, “They
ran into an accident not long after you went to see them. I was worried that you’d be affected.”

The smile on Maisie’s face looked a little pale. “I scared them just because I wanted to force the person
behind them to come out from behind the scene. But I didn’t expect.” ….

Nolan took her into his arms and kissed her on the top of her head. “It’s not your fault. The party who
hired them had never thought of letting them walk away in one piece. Maybe it’s because Mt. Winters
started to regret it. That’s why they tried to kill them.”

She raised her head. “He regretted it?”



Nolan nodded. “Mr. Winters didn’t fully trust them. He must’ve found something, or else, he wouldn’t
have deliberately leaked their location when they were being taken away.”

Maisie immediately fell into contemplation.

‘It’s obvious that Mr. Winters noticed that the other party wouldn’t be so kind that they would help them
sincerely, so he was careful. But he didn’t expect it to turn out to be a disaster to them.

‘Mrs. Winters died on the spot, and Mr. Winters is still in a coma. No matter what, a life has been lost!’

Maisie supported her chin. “Mr. Winters must’ve known something before he regretted this. If they leam
that Mr. Winters is still alive, they’ll definitely make another move, won’t they?”

Nolan hugged her all of a sudden. “So, as our only lead, he has to be protected.”

Maisie’s eyelashes trembled as she thought of something. She stood on tiptoe and wrapped her arms
around his neck while her eyes lit up “If Mr Winters is a very important lead, then what will the people
behind the curtain do when the fact that Mr. Winters i s still alive is spread? Won’t they get anxious?”
