Chapter 1390
Nolan and Nicholas continued having dinner and didn’t dare say anything.
Maisie got up and went upstairs.
Nicholas looked at Nolan. “Did you hear what your wife said? You can’t spoil Daisie
anymore.”
Nolan was casual about it. “You sound like you haven’t been spoiling her.”
Nicholas pressed his lips together. That was his granddaughter. They had everything,
so there was nothing wrong with giving whatever his grandchildren wanted to them.
Daisie did grow up with all the protection they could give, so once she left her safety
bubble, she wouldn’t be able to survive.
She was naive when it came to worldly issues and didn’t know how to speak to people. She was too innocent, and if

However, this incident helped her mature a little, or at least she now understood that friendships shouldn’t be
maintained through benefits. That would be more of a transaction, and even if it was a transaction, both parties
should have received equal benefits, just like a business deal.
Maisie stood in front of Daisie’s room and knocked.
There was no reply.
She opened the door and saw that it was dark inside. Daisie was curled up behind the curtains and leaned against
the door with saddened eyes.
Maisie’s heart ached when she saw that.
She walked toward her and leaned down to look into her eyes. “Daisie, you should cry if you’re feeling sad.”
Daisie shook her head. “I don’t want to cry.”
She thought that crying was tiring, and there were no tears left after crying for a long time.
“Don’t cry then.” Maisie raised her hand and touched her head. “I didn’t cry when I was in a worse situation. This
isn’t too bad.”

Daisie blinked but didn’t say anything.
“Daisie, you’re a lot luckier than I was. You have a grandfather who loves you, your
brothers and father, and me. Your grandmother passed away a long time ago, and your
maternal grandfather didn’t love me when I was young. I’ve gone through all the
hardship alone, and I was young and never loved. I couldn’t just cuddle up to someone
like you do.”
Maisie slowly stood up and pulled the curtains away so light could shine into the room.
“Everyone needs to grow, and it doesn’t usually go smoothly. You were really happy
when you were children, but now you’re in junior high school and have your own ideas,

more people and understand that everyone has their own problems.
“You have an advantage over the others, and many people grew up with a
disadvantage, but everyone is equal. You can’t wish that they’re all like you. Lisa, for
example, you need to get to know her better if you want to be her friend instead of
making her happy with what you think will work by giving her gifts.
Those gifts were a burden to her family.”
Maisie turned to look at her. “There is always greed in people, do you understand?”
Daisie pressed her lips together and got up after a while. “Mom, I want to see Lisa.”

The car was parked in the suburbs, and the sky was turning dark. The street lamps
started turning on when Daisie stood in front of the car. She hesitated for a long time
before deciding to go see Lisa.
