Chapter 694
Ryleigh chased her father to the door and shouted” Dad!”
However, Russell paid her no mind. He went back into his room and locked the door.
Louis stayed in the study room and looked at Ryleigh, who was standing outside. After a short while, Ryleigh
stormed in and grabbed him by his collar, “What the hell do you want, Louis? How dare you investigate m e?”
Louis replied calmly, “Do you have any secrets that can’t be known to others?”
Ryleigh did not say anything in return.
He removed her hand and dusted his collar. After that, he rose to his feet and looked down at her. “Do you think it’s
your fault for what happened that year?”
Ryleigh froze. She clenched her fists tightly and asked, “What do you mean?”
Louis leaned closer to her and said, “I don’t believe that you’re that kind of person.”
After that, he left the study room, leaving Ryleigh to stand frozen stiff on the spot as she was overwhelmed by a
surge of despair. At Blackgold…
Maisie passed by the reception desk. The staff at the front desk already knew her identity, and she greeted her

She smiled at her and nodded. “Thank you.”
Maisie walked toward the office and knocked on the door. After getting permission, she pushed the door open and
saw Nolan was reading a document in his chair.
He did not raise his head, so he thought she was Quincy. He said, “Please help me to inform them that I’m not going
to the event tonight. I don’t like that kind of occasion.”
Maisie walked toward the desk and leaned forward.” Why, though?”
Stunned, Nolan closed the document and raised his head. “Zee?”
Maisie got up and sat beside the desk. “Are you surprised?”
He put the document on the desk, got up to his feet, walked around the desk, and stopped in front of her.” Are you
here to entertain me?”
‘Entertain me…’
Nolan was stunned as soon as the words slipped past his lips. He did not expect himself to say something like that. It
just came out of his mouth naturally.
Maisie stroked his cheek and said, “Well, you caught me.”
Nolan grabbed her wrist and put her palm against his cheek, “Did… Did I always say something like that in the
past?”
Blinking her eyes, Maisie replied, “Do you want to hear a joke, Nolan?”
Nolan lifted his eyebrows and looked at her.
“There was a sugar cube walking in the north pole. It felt so cold, and then it…”
“It turned into an ice cube?” Nolan rubbed his chin against her palm and finished her sentence. There was a smile
tugging at the corner of his lips.
Maisie withdrew her hand and said, “A cabbage was taking off its clothes as it walked…”
Nolan chimed in again and said, “And then it was gone.”
Maisie frowned. “Have you gotten your memories back?”
He kissed her and replied, “I was exposed to these dry jokes in high school.”
Maisie was rendered speechless.
‘Then why didn’t he know the answer back then?’ Maisie thought.
However, she soon found the reason why. After all, he now only had the memories of the things that had happened
before he was 17, so of course, he could remember the things that happened in his high school better.

Nolan grabbed her into his arms and buried his head in her shoulder. “Did you tell me these dry jokes in the past as
well, Zee?”
“Yeah,” Maisie replied.
He turned her over and forced her to meet his gaze. “I can remember some of it.”
Nolan scratched the tip of her nose with his finger and asked, “What brought you here today? Is it because you miss
me too much
Maisie turned her face sideways and said, “Yeah. But I don’t miss you anymore.”
He chuckled deeply at her answer.
Quincy knocked on the door, and Maisie pushed Nolan away. When Quincy entered the office, he was taken aback
slightly when he saw Maisie. “I didn’t know you were here too, Ms. Vanderbilt.”
An impish smile appeared on Maisie’s face as she said, “Mr. Goldmann said he’ll attend the dinner tonight.”
Nolan pinched her cheek and sighed exasperatedly.” You really are one naughty woman.”
Maisie smiled at him and replied, “It’s okay. You can go to entertain your client.”
Then, she went closer to him and whispered into his ear. “However, come back early. I’ll be waiting for you at
home, and then we’ll take a bath together.”
