Chapter 1814
Only Daisie and Nollace were left in the living room. Daisie probed upstairs. “Is Mr. Knowles really angry?”
Nollace stood up. “Don‘t worry. My mother can handle it.”
He stopped, reached out, and took her into his arms.
Daisie was stunned and looked up at him. “What are you doing?”
With his fingertips, he tucked the hair that was hanging over her forehead to the back of her ear. “Would you like to go back to my room?”
She looked away subconsciously, feeling extremely nervous.” What will we do after we go back into your room?”
Nollace lowered his head and bit her ear gently. “I want to stay with you.”
She felt an electric jolt up her spine, her cheeks felt flushed and warm, and she swallowed her saliva with difficulty. “Aren‘t || staying with you now?”
“This is different.” He ran his finger over her lips. “I want to kiss you, but if you‘re not afraid of being seen…”
Daisie covered his mouth with her palm, her ears were on the brink of lighting on fire, and she whispered, “Okay, I know!”

After a while, Daisie‘s eyelashes trembled, and her hands that
were resting on his shoulders clenched tightly. “Nollace… I can‘t breathe…”
Nollace placed his palm on her lower back and buried his head on the side of her neck. The breath he exhaled seemed to be scorching every inch of her skin.
Daisie‘s legs felt weak, and she almost lost her footing, but he picked her up in the next second before she could react to anything.
“Nollace Knowles–” Without giving her a chance to speak up, he sealed her lips again.
As dusk approached, the setting sun poured into the house through the French windows, and the light and shadow on the head of the bed softened his
facial outline like a photo filter.
Daisie lay sideways right next to Nollace, staring at him, who was asleep, and could not help but raise her hand to caress his eyelashes.
Nollace frowned slightly, lifted his hand, grasped her wrist, and pressed it against his chest. He did not open his
eyes and chuckled. “I‘ve finally fallen asleep, and you‘ve woken me up again.”
Daisie pouted. “You can sleep as much as you want, whenever you want, why must you keep me here?”
‘He just wouldn‘t let me go. If Mrs. Knowles were to see that we‘re on the same bed, she’d definitely misunderstand us.‘
Nollace turned over, his arm landed horizontally across her waist, and he hugged her in a solid embrace. “Because it feels
safe when you‘re by my side.”
She nestled in his arms and did not utter a single word.
‘Forget it. Since he‘s so sleepy, I‘ll just lay here and be his blanket.‘
However, drowsiness was something very contagious, so it did not take long for Daisie to fall asleep next to him.
Nollace woke up and saw the person who was sleeping even more soundly than him in his arms. He could not help but chuckle.
‘This girl is really trustful and unwary when she‘s around me.‘
He leaned forward, pecked her gently on her forehead, then sat up, covered her with the blanket, left the room quietly, and went downstairs.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDiana was asking the servants to prepare dinner. Thus, he went into the kitchen and instructed , “Mother , get them to prepare more food for dinner.”
She turned around and stared at Nollace. “Is Daisie coming over for dinner tonight?”
Nollace cleared his throat. “She didn‘t even go home.”
Diana was stunned by the response, returned to her senses in the next second, and asked, “Daisie didn‘t go back, then where is…”
“She‘s in my room.”
Diana was shocked when she heard that answer, stepped
forward immediately, and grabbed him by the collar. “Nollace Knowles, Daisie hasn‘t even graduated from college!”
Nollace rubbed his forehead. “I know, don‘t let your imagination run wild.”
“Then what is she doing in your room?”
“Sleeping.”
Diana was exasperated. “And here you are, trying to explain this situation to me. Why didn‘t you restrain yourself? Daisie is a pure, innocent little girl, and you‘ve taken her…”
Nollace glanced at her. “Do you think your son is a beast?”
Diana thought about it carefully.
Yes, I should know him better. After all, he‘s my son. No matter how much he likes Daisie, he won‘t sweet–talk her into doing those things.‘
