Chapter 281
Raven became nervous after hearing this. She looked at her and said, “Cherie, why did Mr. Goldmann want to see
Maisie? Does he think that Maisie is cheating too?” Cherie smiled with a little embarrassment. “Of course not, don’t
worry.”
Cherie brought Maisie to the office, opened the door, and saw Nolan sitting on the couch with his legs crossed while
Hans and Rowena were also there. After Maisie appeared, Nolan ordered the two of them indifferently, “You two, go
out first.”
Rowena took a glance at Maisie before leaving with a sulky face when she turned around. Cherie, who was the last
to leave, closed the door of the office. There were only the two of them left in the office now. “Why are you

a training camp, and there are so many people here. It’s not good to be seen by others.” Maisie refused. Nolan’s
thin lips were pursed tightly, and his gaze was fixed on her for a while. “Do you want t o come over by yourself, or
do you want me to carry you over?” Maisie was rendered speechless. Just as she walked up to the sofa, Nolan
reached out and hauled her into his arms. Maisie was taken aback for a split second and struggled. “Let me go—”
“Are you still angry?” Nolan wrapped his arms around her waist, held her tightly, and buried his head beside her
neck and on her clavicle. His breath sounded when he spoke. “I’ve already figured out the matter of the jade ring.
“Zee, that jade ring was my apology gift to you. But I didn’t know what you would like at that time, so I asked
Rowena.”
Maisie’s eyelashes drooped, and her tightly pursed lips opened slowly, seemingly a little dissatisfied. “Why would
you ask her?” “I… I thought you women would have quite similar tastes.” Nolan started acting a little awkwardly. He
had never given any woman gifts, and he did not know what women liked. Thus, he wanted to give her jewelry, but
his young wife was a designer and knew more about jewelry than he did. That was why it was extremely difficult for
him.
Maisie had nothing to say
No matter how angry Maisie was deep down, Nolan’s sincere expression while he was admitting his mistake,
coupled with his explanation, her anger was already half dissipated. ‘He’s definitely an idiot, right?’
Nolan seemed to have realized something, and a hint of glee beamed from his half-closed eyes. “Are you jealous
because you thought I gave Rowena that jade ring?” “The best explanation for her furious reaction is that she’s
jealous.’ Maisie snorted and turned her face away. “What’s there to be jealous about? The person who can’t get
what she wants is her and not me. She was still showing it off to me a few days ago

inappropriate. ‘Why did that sound like I’m showing off?’
Nolan raised his eyebrows and smiled. “Yeah, it’s you who got me, and not her. There’s really n o need for you to be
jealous.” Maisie pushed him gently. “Can you let me go first? This is still an office. If someone were to see us…”
“This is Hans’s office. No one will come here.” Nolan gave her slender neck a light peck and lowered his voice.
“Zee, I miss you very much.” Maisie’s cheeks felt hot, as if a warm current was surging back and forth in her body.
“I’ve only not seen you for a while. You’ve lost weight.” Nolan slipped his hand into her coat.
Maisie was so piqued that her cheeks flushed, and she lifted her hand. “You b*stard!”
Just as she was about to hit him, he grabbed her arm.
Her arm felt as soft as fur. He smirked blankly while he was caressing her. “Be good.”
When looking at Nolan, who was teasing herself with a solemn appearance, the phrase“ barbarian in a suit” suited
him a lot.
