Chapter 1129

Nolan frowned. “I don’t know much about him.” Louis covered his forehead with one hand and looked
ahead. “Since you’re idle enough to worry about Xyla’s affair, why don’t you worry about your meeting
with my grandfather first.”

Ryleigh’s expression changed slightly as she grabbed Maisie’s hand. “Zee, your grandfather… Is he a
strict man?”

Maisie felt helpless. “He’s just playing with you. Grandpa isn’t a strict man.”

Ryleigh’s heart had just calmed down for a short while, but it was flustered again when she met
Hernandez in person.

Although Hernandez was in a wheelchair, his domineering aura gave others a stern and strict first
impression.

She stood there at a loss. “Hi, Grand-Hello, Grandfather, it’s nice to meet you.”

Hernandez frowned and looked at Louis in bewilderment. “Why did you marry a wife who stutters?”

Louis could not help but chuckle. Ryleigh was even more embarrassed. She raised her head and
responded seriously.” Grandfather. I’m not stuttering, I’m… I’m nervous.”

“Oh, you’re nervous.” Hernandez felt a little more relieved and put down the teacup in his hand. “There’s
nothing to be nervous about. I’m no tiger.” Maisie could not help but laugh. “Grandpa, this is Ryleigh’s
first time meeting you. So, it’s inevitable for her not to feel nervous.’ Hernandez restrained his solemn
expression and waved his hand. “Take a seat. We’re all family members now, so there’s no need to make
everything so formal.”



Ryleigh nodded and sat on the couch.

When Louis was about to sit down beside her, Hernandez raised his voice abruptly. “I didn’t grant you
permission to sit just yet.’

Louis raised his head. “Why can’t I sit?”

“I didn’t like Nolan before this, and I don’t like you now,” Hernandez said so directly, ignoring Nolan’s
presence.

Nolan lifted his gaze and looked at him but did not say a word.

Louis frowned. “You can dislike him all you like, but why would you dislike me now? I’m also your
biological grandson.” “So what if you’re my grandson?” Hernandez turned his face away proudly.” You
didn’t even tell me that you’re getting married back then, and you’re here asking me to show you some
respect?”



“Wow, this is injustice at its highest. I didn’t even know that your death was only a facade.” Louis sat
down directly. Ryleigh glanced at Hernandez.” Grandfather, don’t scold him anymore. Mother had
scolded him as well, so I really pity him.” Hernandez let off a hearty laugh. “He deserves it.”

Louis turned and looked at Ryleigh.

Ryleigh was very well-behaved when she was facing Hernandez, but she looked extremely arrogant
when she exchanged gazes with Louis.

Maisie and Nolan sat and drank tea silently.

Nolan was especially gleeful. It seemed that he no longer had to suffer from Hernandez’s sarcastic
remarks only because he was Titus’ grandson as long as Louis was there.



Maisie received a text message on her cell phone all of a sudden, and Nolan looked at her as she got up
and walked out of the building and into the courtyard.

It was a message from Xyla. She had just replied to the text message when Nolan hugged her from
behind. “Whose message was that?”

Maisie chuckled. “Xyla.”

Nolan frowned slightly.

“What Ryleigh said might be true. Yorrick has brought Xyla to Yaramoor.” Maisie turned and looked at
Nolan. “Her documents have been taken away from her, and she can’t even return to Zlokova now.”

Nolan pondered for a moment. “Yorrick wouldn’t do so if what he wanted was only to fool around with
another woman.”

“So, are you saying that Yorrick is taking his relationship with Xyla seriously this time?” Maisie wondered
how Xyla had provoked Yorrick.

‘I don’t know much about the details, but Xyla is someone who has endorsed Soul Jewelry’s products,
not to mention that she did also lend Ryleigh a helping hand before this.

‘Xyla must be aware of Nolan’s relationship with Yorrick since she sent me that text message. I’m the
only person that she can

turn to now.

‘Yorrick’s reputation as a playboy is indeed well known in the circle. With his identity and status, it should
be a piece of cake for him to get his hands on any kind of woman that he wants. He really doesn’t need
to make things so difficult for a woman or even detain her by his side.’
