Chapter 1310

Tanner looked at the crumpled photo and set his jaw tightly.

At night, Maisie was doing the financial report in her notebook on the bed.

When Nolan came out of the bathroom, he put the towel he used to wipe his hair aside and walked up to
her.

The bed sank, and a warm body approached her from behind.

Before she could do anything, she was enveloped by the fragrance of the body shampoo.

"Are you still working, Zee?" he asked.

She turned over and placed her palm on his chest.

"Of course, I’m busy.I have to bring work home."

Nolan kissed the center of her eyebrows before moving on to her lips.She groaned and reached out to
hug him.

"Nolan."

"I’m here," he replied as he deepened the kiss.

Maisie opened her lips with difficulty and said, "I don't feel comfortable if we can't find out the relationship
between Cecile and Maxine.It seems to m e that Maxine is coming for me."

He stopped and glanced at her face.



Maisie’s eyelashes trembled, and she continued, "Linda’s death might b e related to the person who
wanted to poison me.I wasn't dead.Her plan failed, so Linda was killed."

Nolan stroked the corner of her lips with his finger, and his breath was heaving.

"Has it never crossed your mind that they might be one person, Zee?"

"One person?" Maisie asked.

Nolan sat upright.

The desire was slowly gone from his eyes, leaving nothing but coldness behind.

"I asked Quincy to keep an eye on her, so I know everything she did in Blackgold.She was absent from
work on the day of Linda's accident."

Maisie turned around and sat up.She knew what Nolan was trying to say.

Cecile had left the company when Linda ran into the accident.

Suddenly, she thought of something and asked, "How about the day before yesterday?"

"It’s the same," he replied.

Maisie pressed her lips thin and lowered her head.

The day before yesterday, someone had visited Linda’s place.

The wife of the landlady's son had said it was a woman, and everything fell into place.

Cecile, who had been absent from work when Linda ran into the accident and who had visited Linda’s
place the day before yesterday, was Maxine.



In other words, Maxine had changed her face and her identity, but why did she do that? There was no
feud between her and Maxine.

Nolan cupped her cheek and went closer to her.

"Zee, no matter who she is, I’ll expose her true form.I don’t care about other people, but she should
never try to harm my family."

He pulled her into his arms, and when Maisie felt how nervous he was, she chuckled and whispered into
his ear, "With you by my side, I’m not afraid of anything, Noles my love."

"Really?"

Nolan giggled.

He kissed her lips and said, "I thought you were going to cry because you’re too scared."

Maisie turned around and pinned him under her.

She untied her belt, and her silk dress fell off her body.

"We still don’t know who will cry in the end yet."

A chuckle escaped from Nolan’s lips as he held onto Maisie’s waist.

"Seems like someone is asking for some punishment."

The night was getting darker and darker.

The dew turned into a layer of fog on the glass window.

The figures reflected in the window were blurry and filled with emotion.



The next day, at the police station...

The police officer handed the repaired phone to Maisie.

Maisie hastily checked the messages as soon as she got the phone, and just as she expected, the
messages when Linda ran into the accident were still on the phone.

Maisie returned the phone to the police officer and said, "Thank you."

Suddenly, she thought of something and pulled a document out of her bag.

"She might be the one behind the incident, but I haven’t figured out her true identity, and we don’t have
any evidence to prove that she’s the culprit yet."

The police officer took the document and read through it.

He lifted his head and said, "Thank you for your information, Mrs.Goldmann.

We’ll look into this woman’s background."

When Maisie came out of the police station, she got into her car and drove away.

A black car that parked not far away quickly followed after her.

While Maisie was driving, her face sank when she thought about the possibility of Maxine being Cecile.

It seemed to her that she had a lot of grudges against Sue and her mother when she told her the story in
the coffee shop that day.
