Chapter 1188

Maisie choked. “I realized that you’re quite annoying sometimes.” Nolan nodded. “Only toward you.”

“Zee.” Madam Nera was dining at the restaurant with a few big names in the fashion scene. Maisie
smiled and walked toward her. “Godmother, you’re up early.”

“I don’t usually stay in bed,” Madam Nera smiled and introduced Maisie to the people who were there
with her. They were all famous in the industry.

Maisie greeted them with handshakes while Nolan tidied up his suit and walked toward Maisie.

Everyone there knew Nolan and was surprised that he showed up. “Mr.

Goldmann is here too.

“Yes, I’m here with my wife,” Nolan replied amiably.

One of the ladies smiled and said, “There’s a rumor going around that you spoil your wife. I guess it’s
true.”

“How could he not spoil such a beautiful wife? And Mrs. Goldmann founded Soul at such a young age.
That’s a lot of talent.”

“That’s probably thanks to Mr. Goldmann too.”

Maisie’s smile slowly faded, but nobody noticed. When that was said, everyone knew that the air had
changed.

The younger woman who had said that noticed that she had made a mistake, so she covered her mouth.
“Oh, I’m sorry. Mrs. Goldmann. What I meant was that Mr.



Goldmann supports you so you don’t tire

yourself.

Maisie’s smile was still on, but when she was going to say something. Nolan calmly said. “I never helped
my wife with Soul. Honestly, Soul is part of Blackgold and has made quite a lot of money. I still owe my
wife $150,000,000.1 think it’s more like I’ve been taking advantage of her.” Maisie paused and turned to
look at Nolan, who looked back with eyebrows raised.



His calm yet witty speech surprised everyone there.

Madam Nera laughed and tried to resolve the situation. “That’s right. This girl even tricked me and
covered the fact that she was working with Mr. Goldmann and managed to convince me. She managed
to get a channel from me. If she weren’t capable, wouldn’t have worked with her.” The other ladies
believed her because Taylor Jewelry had a strong standing in the fashion world

Everyone in the industry respected her, and a girl that she admired wouldn’t be someone who did well
because she had a backing . After all, Madam Nera hated pretentious people.

“Zee,” Madam Nera held her hand and patted its back, “Heavy the head that wears the crown. There’s no
need to care about what others say because there will always be bad comments when you achieve
enough. I know you well, and I believe that you’re not someone who would hunger for power. You have
been true to yourself all this time.”

Maisie nodded, “I understand.

Nolan pulled Maisie into his arms when they walked toward the private room. “How was my
performance?”



Maisie laughed, turned, and looked at him.” Very good.”

He smiled. “Do I get a reward?” She nodded. “Yes.”

Seeing how he looked longingly, she took a piece of candy out of her pocket and put it in his hand.
“Here’s a reward, good boy.”
