Chapter 978
Madam Knowles had contacted Thomas through a certain medium and told him that the woman he loved was
forced to death by Sam back. That was why Thomas would interfere in the Knowles’ affairs.
Maisie squinted. “So Elder Master Clifford chose to cooperate with Madam Knowles in order to get his revenge?”
She chuckled after saying that. “If Sam really forced Elder Master Clifford’s lover to death, and Madam Knowles has
used this condition to convince your grandfather into getting back at the Knowles, don’t you think it’s strange?
Shouldn’t Sam be the one who gets killed first and not Elder Master Knowles, who has nothing to do with it?
“Madam Knowles allowed Sam to live until he died of illness. How could your grandfather wait so patiently for so
many years?” She stared at Jackie and uttered word by word, “If it were me, I wouldn’t be able to wait for that long.
Unless there’s a reason for me to do so.”
Jackie looked down as he thought about something. He then picked up the wine glass after a long time. “That
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwoman… She seems to have given birth to a daughter for my grandfather.”
Maisie returned to her car. Lucy’s finger, which was about to dial 911, trembled when she saw Maisie open the car
door.
Lucy raised her head. “Ms. Vanderbilt, you’re back. I was about to call the police if you still hadn’t returned.” Maisie
closed the car door and fastened her seat belt. “I told you that it’d be fine, didn’t IR I wouldn’t lie to you.”
Lucy heaved a sigh of relief and asked again, “Do you know that person?”
Maisie replied while driving, “He’s an old classmate of mine.”
“An old classmate?” Lucy scratched her cheeks and muttered, “Why is my intuition telling me that he’s a mobster?”
‘He actually brought two men in black along with him. I thought they were debt collectors who came to talk
business.’
Maisie smiled and said nothing. At Octavia, at the Clifford manor…
Thomas stood in front of the photo with his hands crossed. His expression looked gloomy as he whispered to the
woman in the photo,” Simmie, I’ve been looking for our daughter for most of my life, but I haven’t even had the
chance to run into her. Did she just go with you ? If that’s the case, I hate myself more. I hate myself for believing
what Olga said.” Speaking of this, Thomas could not help but look even sulkier. I’ve never doubted Olga because
she’s Simmie’s sister, but she obviously adopted our daughter and chose to keep it from me for decades. She even
made our daughter live in the Knowles as a tool that profited them!
Thomas shouted, and a bodyguard came in from outside. “Sir.”
Thomas said expressionlessly, “Contact Madam Knowles on my behalf and tell her that our collaboration ends
today. By the
way, I want to settle an account with her.”
In the courtyard…
Daisie was sitting alone on the swing. She had become a lot less talkative and a lot more depressed than before.
She was not the lively girl that she usually was anymore. Quincy, who was standing in the corridor, saw this,
lowered his head, and sighed. Nolan came over at the exact moment. What’s wrong?”
Quincy looked at him, “Mr. Goldmann, the young lady has been extremely quiet these past few days. It seems that
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNoilace’s affair has affected her quite a bit.”
Nolan frowned and looked in Daisie’s direction. “This girl has a sensitive soul, I think she’ll remain in this state for
quite some time, but she’ll eventually recover
from the heartbreak:
“But how are we going to explain this to Mrs. Goldmann when we get back to Bussburgh?”
‘The child was enthusiastic and kicking before coming to Octavia, but she’s become so dispirited now. Those who
don’t know would most probably think that she’s undergone some kind of mental abuse.’
Nolan pinched and rubbed the bridge of his nose, “We’ll take care of that when we’re back.”
“Mr Goldmann!” A bodyguard rushed toward him in a hurry and said something to Nolan.
Nolan paused for a bit and frowned faintly.” Are you sure about that?”
The bodyguard nodded. “The news came from Yaramoor, so it shouldn’t be fake.” Quincy was shocked after
hearing this, and he could not help but look in Daisie’s direction. “If the young lady were to be informed about
this…”
