Chapter 1158
“If you don’t believe me, feel free to check Zen Garden’s surveillance recording. After all, I’m sure you want to
know the thing that Hector would rather resign than tell you, right?”
After saying everything he wanted to say, Nolan rose to his feet and left.
The editor-in-chief was not stupid. He knew that Nolan was there for Hector. Initially, he had just felt it weird when
Hector said something like that to him before he left. However, after what Nolan revealed, he shuddered and even
felt vaguely that his wife must be hiding something from him.
Nolan came out of the fashion magazine company, and Quincy was waiting for him in the car. When he entered the
car, Maisie came closer from the back seat and asked,” Do you think the editor-in-chief will go look into it?”
Nolan chuckled. “I’ve already made things very clear for him. If he still didn’t get it, then there’s nothing I could do
about it. He deserves to get cheated on by his wife.”
Maisie laughed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was better to let Nolan inform the editor-in-chief about his wife’s infidelity than to let Hector tell the editor-in-chief
directly. After all, the editor-in-chief had a stable relationship with his wife, and they had never had problems with
each other after being married for so long He would never believe or even be able to accept such an absurd
reason.
That was why Maisie had not advised Hector to expose everything but to use it as a tool to keep Liam in check.
If Hector exposed everything precipitately, Liam would definitely say he was lying and try to defend himself. The
editor-in-chief’s wite was not someone to be taken lightly either. At that time, if they joined forces and accused
Hector of defamation, the editor-in -chief might not trust Hector anymore.
Therefore, she had wanted to create an impression that Hector did not dare to tell the secret because Liam was
threatening him. It was only then that the editor-in-chief would become suspicious and investigate the matter
himself,
Nolan pulled her into his arms and said,” So, what is your next step, Zee? I’ll do my best to cooperate with you”
Gripping at the hem of his cloth, Maisie chuckled lightly. “Next, we’ll split up. You lead the editor-in-chief to
investigate Liam while I’ll go look into the relationship between Linda and Liam.”
Nolan squinted and smiled, “Alright.”
Quincy, who was driving the car, looked at Nolan through the rear mirror and said,” Mr. Goldmann, why don’t I go
do it for you? After all, you still have to go back to the company and”
“Shush it, Quincy. This is between my wife and me, so why do you want to be involved in it? Don’t you think it’s
embarrassing?” Nolan said as he swept a glance at him.
Quincy closed his mouth.
He was wrong.
Nolan was no longer single, and he was no longer the workaholic he used to be.
Three days later, at a coffee shop…
Maisie was sitting in a private room meeting up with a detective that she had hired. The detective was very
efficient. After all, she had spent $15,000 to hire him. As she took over the envelope, she asked,” is this reliable?”
“Of course it is. You can rest assured, Mrs. Goldmann. We have a lot of connections in our line of work, and we have

Maisie smiled. “Thank you for your hard work.”
“Don’t mention it. If you need my service again, just give me a call.”
After the detective left, Maisie opened up the folder, and there was a stack of documents in it.
Linda had hooked up with Liam in a bar after her divorce from Jimmy, and both of them had stayed under the same
roof for quite a long time. However, Liam was by no means an honest man, and he had a knack for dealing with
women.
He was good at pretending to be a successful businessman to approach those ignorant and innocent girls. Then, he
had another way of dealing with the wives of rich families or gold-diggers.
Liam’s annual salary was $100,000. He could lie his way through those innocent little girls with fake luxury goods,
but this wouldn’t work with those women who had seen the world like those rich wives and gold-diggers.
He approached those rich wives by becoming their confidante. He went to the length of understanding their
difficulties and talked to them so that they would trust and feel at ease with him. When they got along happily, he
would fabricate a fake identity and tell them how hard his life had been to arouse their empathy when the time
came. Some of them would be generous enough to give him money for the purpose of investment.
