Chapter 575
Nolan did not deny it.
Strix held the chess piece in his hand, seeing that Nolan did not play his next move. “She hasn’t been doing too well
in the past three years. Her biological father died in that accident, while she lost her baby. No one should be able to
sustain such a severe blow.”
Nolan put his chess piece down, and his indifferent expression looked slightly moved. From the moment he had
learned that she was pregnant with a child back then and that she had lost the child in that accident, he knew that
he would be in her debt till the day of his demise.
If she had not been pushed away from his side in the first place, perhaps that incident would not have happened.
Strix looked at him. “Why? Hasn’t she forgiven you?”
Nolan retracted his gaze from the chessboard but did not answer the question as he looked elsewhere.
Strix took a look at the chessboard. “If she hadn’t forgiven you, she wouldn’t have put in so much effort to save
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou. I can see that she never gave up on you.”
Nolan exchanged gaze with him as his lips were tightly pursed.
The scar looked very deep. She had never let go of the
past, but he never really wanted to give up on her either.
Strix twisted the chess pieces with his fingers. “You forced her into leaving you just because you had been infected
with the virus, and you didn’t want it to affect her. I can understand your actions.”
Having said that, Strix turned his head and looked out the window. “Back then, her mother left me because she
didn’t want to burden me anymore too. She knew that she didn’t have much time left, and she didn’t want me to
waste more of my time on her. As for me, I had failed to save her in time, and that’s a regret that I will never get
past for the rest of my life. That’s why I don’t want Zee to follow in my footsteps.”
Nolan walked out of the study, and Maisie just so happened to enter the corridor.
She was surprised and walked forward with a bright smile. “Oh, what a rare thing to see, the legendary Mr.
Goldmann actually came over in person.”
He smiled. “Of course, I have to come in person to inform Strix that I’m bringing my wife home.”
Maisie inserted her hands in her pockets. “My grandfather’s funeral hasn’t been held yet.”
Nolan brushed his finger across her cheek. “It’s okay. We’ll go back only after your grandfather’s funeral.”
“I haven’t figured out whether I want to go back with you.” Maisie dragged the end of the sentence
deliberately. But what caught her off guard was his thin lips, which approached her lips in an instant and kissed her.
All she felt in the next couple of seconds was his warm breath caressing the surface of her face.
Worrying about being seen, Maisie hurriedly shoved his chest to part his lips away from hers. “Nolan Goldmann,
you,”
“Whether you’d like to go back with me is not up to you to decide.” He chuckled as he brushed over the hair
scattered over her shoulders and hanging over her chest with his fingertips. “Our marriage certificate is still with
me.”
“But we’ve lived in separation for three years.” Maisie lifted three fingers and placed them right in front of his eyes.
“We got back together in Stoslo, and we’ve been living together for quite some time already.” Nolan approached
her with a smirk on his face. “I didn’t cheat on you, and I didn’t show any traits of domestic violence. So can the
court force us to break up if I refuse to file the divorce?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMaisie was rendered speechless as she had obviously lost.
‘I don’t want to bring our divorce up over and over again, but forgiving him just like this makes me feel extremely
embarrassed as if I’m a shameless woman.
‘Anyway, he has recovered and is perfectly healthy now, so I should play with his emotions while I still can.’
Looking at Maisie’s feisty and childish reaction, Nolan leaned toward her and pinched her earlobe. “I’ll stay here for
the night.”
After saying that, he walked toward her room on his own. Maisie suddenly came to her senses, caught up to him,
and tried to drag him backward. “Nolan Goldmann, don’t you even dare think about it!”
As soon as he stepped into the room, Nolan took her into his arms, locked the door of the room with his other hand,
pressed her against the wall, and kissed her vigorously. “You really don’t want me to stay here?”
Maisie lost her rationality almost immediately. They had been maintaining a lukewarm relationship when he was ill,
and Nolan had
obviously been suppressing his strength. But now that he had recovered, every action of his felt like he was a
volcano that was erupting , and the lust and desire that had been suppressed for such a long time were transmitted
through his body temperature and thrilling heartbeat.
