Chapter 745
Morgan fell silent for a while before saying, “Alright, then. Suit yourself. Do what you want to do.” After he hung up
the call Helios handed the phone back to Nina.
Nina looked at him and asked, “Mr. Wallace has a huge reputation in the entertainment industry. Even the most top-
tier celebrities wouldn’t dare to say no to him. If you reject him, wouldn’t he-”
“Don’t worry, I’ll explain to him afterward. Besides, the time limit the Bouchers gave me is almost up. I can’t rely on
my achievements in the entertainment industry to convince my family.” If Helios wanted to part ways with his
family, he first had to get recognition from his grandfather. In other words, he had to get the investment project in
Winston Island.
Meanwhile, Maisie threw a pillow and blanket on the floor. She turned to Nolan and said, “You’re going to sleep here
tonight.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter that, she turned around and closed the door. Nolan was a tad slower. He tried to turn the doorknob, but Maisie
had locked the door from the inside. He leaned against the door and pleaded helplessly, “Please forgive me, Zee.
Do you really have the heart to kick me out of bed?”
“Yes, I do. And I’d love to do it. ‘B*stard. You took advantage of your amnesia and thought I was meeting with
another guy, and now you still want to sleep with me? Go to hell!’
Maisie returned to her bed, took another set of bedsheets, and ignored Nolan.
She turned down the light beside the bed and lay down.
After a short while, Nolan stopped talking. When the susurration in the living room drifted into her ears, she turned
her head around and cast her gaze on the door that separated her and Nolan apart.
Well, I’ve already given him a pillow and a blanket.’
With that thought in her mind, she turned around and closed her eyes. Sleep came to her easily, and by the time
she woke up, it was already morning. Maisie came to the living room. Nolan was sleeping curled up like a frozen
shrimp on the couch. When she saw the blanket on the floor, her heart shuddered, and she felt a bit sorry for him.
She picked the blanket up from the floor and laid it on top of him. When her finger touched his skin, she found out
that his body was cold
It was autumn right now. The air conditioner was operating, so…
‘Did he sleep like this for the whole night?
“Nolan…” Just when she was about to say something, Nolan turned around and secured her tightly in his arms.
A surge of chilliness transferred from Nolan’s body to hers, and she forgot to break herself free from his arms.
It seemed like Nolan had woken up, but at the same time, he also seemed like he was still fast asleep. He did not
open his eyes at all as he mumbled, “Cold…”
He tightened his arms subconsciously and turned around, causing Maisie to get sandwiched between him and the
couch. Nolan buried his face into her shoulder and mumbled, sounding like a kid asking for a pat, “Hug me…”
Maisie unconsciously stretched her arms forward and wrapped them around his body. In the next second, Nolan

turned down the air conditioner before Maisie woke up. His plan worked, and it seemed to him that bracing himself
against the cold blast of air from the air conditioner for more than ten minutes was not in vain.
Maisie felt something was under her. She grabbed it, and it was the air conditioner remote control.
Maisie squinted her eyes dangerously. She turned her head around and saw Nolan was looking at her nervously.
She kicked Nolan down from the couch and shouted, filling the entire living room with her voice, “Well, well, well,
Nolan. Do you think a trick like this will work on me? You’re dead!”
The atmosphere was tense as the four of them enjoyed their breakfast in a private room. Nolan was sitting
opposite Helios.
Both men had taken a punch each last night. It was just that compared to the wound at the corner of Helios’ lips,
the bruise on Nolan’s cheek was not that obvious.
Both of them had a dark expression etching on their faces as soon as they stepped into the private room. They
stared at each other gloomily, and it seemed as if they would get into a fight with each other should anything go
wrong.
