Chapter 845

Nolan took a deep breath, his heart pumping fast in his chest.

He took off his tie and threw it on the desk. While he tried to suppress himself, Maisie said, “I know I was
wrong. I know I shouldn’t have kept you in the dark. Are you still not going to talk to me?”

Her voice was filled with sobs while a string of tears fell and trickled down her cheeks.

Nolan stopped in front of her, and she couldn’t read his expression,

“I want you to rely on me, not ignore me.”

“I didn’t ignore you…” Maisie looked at him begrudgingly.

‘Really?” he asked. He put his hands on the desk and leaned closer to her. “You decide things on your
own without discussing them with me. Am I still your husband?”

Maisie stretched her arms and wrapped them around him. Nolan did not push her away and allowed her
to hug him.

With her voice filled with sobs, she said,” I’m sorry, I just don’t want to rely on you to solve everything.
Yes, I took over the club, but I’ll give it away once I find a suitable candidate”

Before she could finish her sentence, Nolan lifted her chin and planted a kiss on her lips.

After a long while, he let her go and stroked her cheek with his hand. He wiped the tears off her face and
said, “You just know how to use your tears to make me forgive you.”

Maisie pouted and did not say anything.



“Do you know that it feels as if someone is stabbing my heart with a knife whenever I see you crying?”
He kissed her again in between her eyebrows, and his eyes were filled with a smile. “If you cried like this
last night, maybe I wouldn’t have stayed in the study room.” Maisie stopped crying and glared at him
through her foggy eyes. “You tricked me into tears?”

Nolan chuckled and replied, “Am I the one who asked you to cry?”

Maisie mumbled, “Of course, it’s you.”

Nolan coiled his arms around her waist, lifted her up, and put her on the table.” Whenever I see you are
crying, it just breaks my heart. What kind of poison have you fed me? Although I’m angry with you, I just
can’t scold you. I can’t even beat you, and I have to comfort you in the end.”





She turned her face sideways and said, “Well, you can just leave me alone.”

Nolan gently kissed the corner of her lips and chuckled. “If I ignore you, what if you run away from our
house? If I ignore you, what if you run away from the house? Then I’d have to take the kids to look for
their mother. That’s the last thing I want to do.”

Maisie was tickled pink by his comment. There were snots in her nostrils, and a bubble came out when
she laughed.

Nolan couldn’t hold himself anymore and dissolved into a fit of laughter.

Maisie felt embarrassed. She wiped her nose and lifted her leg in an attempt to kick him, “Stop laughing!”

He evaded her kick effortlessly.



Maisie turned her head sideways and ignored him.

Nolan secured her tightly in his arms and rested his chin on the top of her head.

There was a smile in his eyes as he said,’ You’re getting more and more adorable, Zee. You still look
adorable even though you’re crying

Maisie did not say anything. Nolan kissed the top of her head and continued. “Honestly, I was mad at you
because of your refusal to rely on me. I know you don’t want to bother me, but I just want to be bothered
by you.”

Maisie was stunned. She lowered her head and asked, “But won’t you feel annoyed if I bother you too
much?”

“Nope,” he replied, his voice hoarse.

Maisie looked at him and said, “It’s not that I don’t want to rely on you. It’s just that I’m worried that you’ll
get tired of me if I rely on you too much. People always say that marriage is the grave of love. We’ve only
been married for three years, and we still have a long way to go. If you think I’m annoying, then…”



Nolan cupped his hands around her cheeks, forcing her to look him in the eyes. “A husband who can’t
even solve his wife’s problems shouldn’t expect his wife to rely on himself. So what if marriage is the
grave of love? Can’t we love each other in the grave?”

He hugged her tightly and said, “I’ll be by your side forever, be it 10, 20, or even 30 years. I’ll have only
one wife in my life, and her name is Maisie Vanderbilt.”
