Chapter 683

Taylor Jewelry was not only a bigshot in the jewelry industry but also a huge company in the business
circle and the entertainment industry.

Moreover, celebrities in the entertainment industry from all over the world had always tried their best to
please Madam Nera in order to compete for her company’s jewelry endorsement contracts.

She had not even given a hoot about Nolan or even the Lucases back then, so why would she be afraid
of the Hannigans?

It was said that it was not because of how powerful Madam Nera’s background was but because she had
never been afraid of authority. She had always been frank, daring, and ruthless when she was young,
and the people who knew her had to respect her for that.

Seeing that Maizie was rendered speechless, Madam Nera looked at her expressionlessly. “Your father,
Nathaniel Hannigan, doesn’t even dare to talk back at me like what you just did. Not to mention that
you’re still just a junior in the circle. You really shouldn’t take others so lightly.”

Maisie smiled. “Grandma, don’t be infuriated by this. Ms. Hannigan is still young. She’ll remember the
lesson that you’ve just taught her in the future.”

Francisco ignored Maizie and sat down at the same

table with his friends.

Maizie was frozen in place. There was no empty seat for her, and they continued to talk to each other as
if she was not even there with them.

She felt like a joke, embarrassed and awkward to the max, so she furiously left the scene.



Maisie then refilled Madam Nera’s tea. “Grandma, your temper is still the same as before.”

She had seen what she had done to Willow before that.

Madam Nera smiled and responded, “You’re my godgranddaughter, so it’s only right for me to defend
you even more now.”

Francisco cleared his throat lightly. “So you’re Madam Nera.”

He just found out about that after being reminded by his friend.

Madam Nera looked at him. “Mr. Boucher, what’s your relationship with the daughter of the Hannigans?”

Francisco waved his hand. “I’m not in any sort of relationship with her. She initially wanted to marry my
cousin, but he has rejected her. I definitely wouldn’t take a fancy to a woman like her.”





Madam Nera sighed. “With such an arrogant temper, what monster will she become in the future if she
gets herself married into the Bouchers?”

Madam Nera did not stay long before leaving first.

Maisie sent her off to the front of her car and watched as she got in the car and left.

Francisco approached her. His smile still looked the same as before, and his teeth were white and neat.”
Little goddess, it’s been three years, I thought you…”

His smile gradually became more reserved.

It was not that he had not seen the news.



Maisie looked at him. “You thought I was dead?”

Francisco scratched his cheeks. “I’m glad that you’re fine. And as expected, the news can’t be trusted
from time to time.”

Maisie turned to face him. “When did you leave the training camp?”

He replied, “Two years ago.”

After answering her question, he thought of something and continued. “By the way, Raven has already
passed the exam and has made her way into the top management.”

Maisie nodded. “I knew that she definitely could do it as long as she worked hard.”

Francisco walked side by side with Maisie in the aisle outside the golf course. The branches of the
willows on the roadside

were draping like green bead curtains, swaying in the breeze.

Maisie looked at him. “Why are you here today?” “I came to play golf with my friends, but I didn’t expect
to meet you here, little goddess.” Francisco picked a willow leaf and fiddled with it in his hand. “Little
goddess, I’m very sorry for what happened in the training camp back then.”

“What did you do?” She stopped, and Francisco lowered his head.

“I didn’t stand up for you when Wynona framed you. Do you blame me?”

Maisie smiled. “That was ages ago already, and you’re still thinking about it.”

After saying that, she faced him with her hands behind her back. “Speaking of which, I still owe you a
favor. How about 1 treat you to dinner when I’m free?”



Francisco agreed.

Maizie, who was not far behind them, took a few pictures and then smirked smugly. 1 ‘Got you!
