Chapter 989

Nolan was trying to explain when Daisie ran down the stairs. “Great-grandpa!”

Nicholas was stunned when he heard Daisie call Thomas ‘Great-grandpa’ and looked at Nolan curiously.

Nolan nodded. “That’s right, Dad. Elder Master Clifford is Mom’s father.”

Maisie turned to look at them and suddenly recalled that Nolan had said ‘We might become relatives’ and realized

that was what he meant.

Thomas was Natasha’s father, meaning Natasha was a Clifford as well.

Thomas and Nicholas sat in the middle of the room and talked. That was when Nicholas found out that Natasha’s

mother was Madam Knowles’ sister and that Natasha wasn’t an orphan. Instead, Simmone had been attacked soon

after giving birth to her.

Madam Knowles had adopted Natasha, knowing who she was.

Madam Knowles had been in love with Sam Knowles, but she had been forced to marry his father. She had adopted

Natasha, hidden her relationship with Simmone, and used the information about his daughter to make Thomas a

pawn in her revenge plot.

Thomas sighed. “If I knew that my daughter was with the Knowles, I would have done everything I could to get her

back so she wouldn’t have to go through any sad encounters.” It had never crossed Nicholas’ mind that Thomas

Clifford was his father-in-law. He remembered that when he had suggested to Natasha to help her reconnect with

her family, Natasha had sadly smiled and said, “If they wanted to find me, they would have done it already.”

It wasn’t that they didn’t want to. They had just been misled and missed the opportunity to do so.

Maisie walked into the courtyard, and Jackie called to her. She stopped and slowly turned around. “Mr. Clifford… Oh,

who are you to me now?”

She put her hand under her chin and pondered. “Younger cousin?”

Jackie was stumped by the word ‘younger’. He adjusted his glasses. “I remember that we’re the same age.” “But

Nolan is your older cousin, and I’m his wife, so ain’t I your older cousin-in-law?” At that point, Maisie smiled. “So it’s

not wrong to call you my younger cousin, right?”

Jackie hummed and put his hands into his pockets. “I wouldn’t know about this if Grandpa didn’t tell me. It’s funny

that the daughter Grandpa had been looking for was Nolan’s mother.”

“Yes, no one knew.”. Maisie looked toward the branches with no leaves in the courtyard. “I guess these are all part

of fate. Out of the billions of people in the world, we turned out to be related. If we had never met Noilace and

Tristan, we would have never found out about the relationship between Natasha and the Cliffords. It’s just like how if

I met someone else instead of Nolan, I wouldn’t know where I would end up and how my life would turn out.”

Jackie followed her line of vision and looked toward the tree in the cold wind. “A simple choice could easily change

the outcome of things and the course of events. If I didn’t choose to change all those years ago, I would still be that

chubby boy that people looked down on.”

Maisie looked at him, raised her brows, and smiled. “You’re quite the melancholic one. I’m actually curious why you

stayed in Bassburgh.”

She initially thought that Jackie was trying to intervene in the affairs of the Knowles, but he didn’t. Students who

studied in private schools in Bassburgh were mostly from affluent families, and Zeta had driven his car into their

private school during Christmas so that people would think this car with a foreign license plate simply belonged to

one of the parents.
