Chapter 758
Nina nodded, “Helios has to thank Mr. Goldmann for this. Helios has been working in the entertainment
industry, so he’s inexperienced when it comes to business. If it hadn’t been for Mr.
Goldmann, he would’ve fallen for the scam. The other party wanted Helios to invest $ 7,500,000.
However, Helios wouldn’t get any profit at the beginning, and even the contract was shady.”
Sipping on her fruit juice, Maisie said calmly, “The hot spring tourism in Winston Island is a big piece of
pie, and it attracts many businessmen to come here and invest in it. Those well-seasoned businessmen
wouldn’t jump straight into it. They would act according to the circumstances since it’s a big investment.
However, Helios is different. As you said, he’s inexperienced in doing business, and I guess that’s why
they target him.”
Since they had the audacity to demand Helios to put $7,500,000 in their hands as a n investor, it showed
that they were going to rip off Helios.
If Helios really had invested in it, although he would be one of the shareholders, those people would
have divided all the profit into the early stages and then given the rest to Helios. In the end, Helios
wouldn’t be able to get much from this investment, and in the worst-case scenario, he wouldn’t even get
his capital back.

developers doing? Are they not going to do something about it?”
Maisie chuckled and said, “After all,
Winston Island is a solitary island. It’s a business circle developed under the same developer. They lease
their stores to people who do business, and all they are interested in is money. They don’t give a d* mn
about this.”
Winston Island was not a large island. It was about the size of the downtown area in Bassburgh. The
same developer owned all of the hot spring hotels and restaurants, so the profits were naturally in the
developer’s pocket.
The hot spring tourism here was divided into low and high seasons, with business being slow in the
summer but gradually picking up in the fall and being most robust in the winter.
Many businessmen valued the opportunity brought forth by the peak season on Winston Island, so they
all came here to
invest. Those conscienceless businessmen knew that veterans in the business world would not fall for
their trap.
Besides, the developer was the owner of the place. The more the businessmen earned, the more money
they would get. They cared nothing but money, so they decided to turn a blind eye to the businessmen’s
shady practices.
What’s more, Nolan and Helios might be someone of high status in Bassburgh, but Winston Island was
not their territory.
Even if the Goldmanns and the Bouchers were able to get everything their way in Bassburgh, their
influences did not extend to Winston Island.
It was just that Maisie did not have a good feeling about this, and there was a voice inside of her telling
her that something bad was going to happen.
Maisie returned to the room after she finished her breakfast. Nolan had already woken up, but he fell
back down on the bed again when he saw Maisie.
Maisie climbed onto the bed. She tried to pull the blanket off Nolan, but he gripped it tightly.
Left with no other alternatives, she sat on top of him and tried to get the blanket from his grip. “Let go of
the blanket, Nolan.”
Nolan did what he was told and let go of the blanket. Maisie got up from him and threw the blanket away.
When she saw something. she threw the blanket back on him and turned her head away in
embarrassment.

“I don’t want to see that, you shameless man!”
Maisie got out of the bed, but Nolan grabbed her wrist and pulled her back onto his body.
He grabbed the back of her head with his hand. While he was kissing her, he grabbed her arms and
wrapped them around his waist.
After a long while, he trailed kisses down her throat and said, “I thought someone was trying to seduce
me last night, so isn’t this what you want?”
Maisie could feel the tremble in his chest when he was talking. She asked, “I thought someone ignored
me last night?”
Nolan looked at her deeply for a long while and covered both of them in the blanket.
“Hey, stop it. Nolan! Nolan! Are you a dog?! Ah!”
Both of them cuddled together and slept until noon. Lying on the side, Nolan gazed at the person in his
arms with his head resting on
his hand.
He ran his finger over the hair on her cheek. The sun filtered through the window and fell on her
impeccable face, further accentuating those beautiful lines on her face.
