Maisie changed into a set of plain and neat office attire.
She chose to wear a pure white Y-neck, lantern sleeve top, and a pair of beige high-waisted, wide-leg trousers. A ribbon was tied to the left side at the waist, which made her look graceful and sharp It looked simple but did not lack fashion sense.
The waiter led them to the private room while the two bodyguards in black waited outside the door.
“Mr. Goldmann.” The bodyguards in black nodded at Nolan and pushed the door open.
In the elegantly decorated private room, a prestigious middle-aged man who was in his 50s was sitting at the table.
The sense of oppression that originated from the man was so intense that it was worthy of someone as regal as Nolan’s father.
However, the Goldmanns had always been a wealthy and distinguished family, so they should have high standards for their daughter-in-law.
They should expect their daughter-in-law to at least be the daughter of a royal family or the heiress of a consortium.
Nolan wrapped his arm around Maisie’s waist and led her forward. “Father, I’ve brought your daughter-in- law here.”
Maisie was shocked.
‘What?!
Mr. Goldmann Si. scrutinized Maisie’s appearance, making Maisie tighten her hand that was holding her handbag, but she still behaved very calmly on the surface. “It’s nice to see you, M 1. Goldmann.”
‘I don’t care if he’s satisfied with me or not. Anyway, I’ve never thought about marrying myself into the Goldmanns and becoming Mrs. Goldmann.
‘I’d rather that he’s not satisfied with me. If he were to promise to pay me $15,000,000 to get me to leave his son, I would agree very readily!
Mr. Goldmann Sr. waved his hand. “Take a seat, there’s no need to be so reserved.” Maisie walked to the side and sat down.
Mr. Goldmann Sr. glanced at her. “I didn’t expect that such a young lady would’ve given birth t o three children for Nolan.”
Maisie’s lips were tightly pressed while her brows could not help but crease.
Are the children the only thing that Mr. Goldmann Sr. cares about? Could it be that he’s planning to fight for their custody?‘
“Hmph, you must’ve suffered a lot of wrongs in order to give birth to those children for this kiddo. It’s my son’s blessing to have such a decent lady take a fancy to him.”
Maisie was once again astounded.
‘What!?’
She looked at Mr. Goldmann Sr. in a daze.
‘Where’s the cheesy cliché that I anticipated? Shouldn’t the conversation start with: “I’ll pay you $15,000,000 to leave my son alone.”?’ NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Nolan squinted his eyes. “No matter how bad I am, you’re still the one who gave birth to me.”
“If I were to know that I’ve given birth to such a prodigal and useless son, who’s only willing t o start a family in his 30s, I would’ve strangled you to death back then!” Mr. Goldmann Sr. was exasperated.
Maisie’s gaze shifted slowly, and it landed on Mr. Goldmann Sr. in the end. “Mr. Goldmann, 1-”
Mr. Goldmann Sr. raised his hand, interrupted Maisie, and responded calmly, “It’s okay, I’ll definitely stand by your side if this kid treats you badly in the future. You’ve left our family with three heirs, which makes you the Goldmanns’ savior. If it weren’t for you, our family’s legacy would’ve ended in the hands of this rascal.”
Maisie pursed her lips and did not say another word.
‘Mr. Goldmann Sr. indeed looks as distinguished as I imagined, but I’ve never expected that all the majesty was a mere facade. It’s just that I’m also a little surprised by how satisfied Mr. Goldmann Sr. is with me.’
“Nolan’s mother kicked the bucket at a very young age. He had always been very rebellious before this and had never listened to anything that I said. I’m relieved now that someone is able to exert some control over him.”
Mr. Goldmann Sr. sighed, thought of something, and chuckled again. “I’ve met Waylon and Daisie. I assumed that they must be Nolan’s kids when I first saw them, but I didn’t expect itt : o be true. They’ve been growing on me the more I see them.”
Maisie stared at the man. ‘The love that he has for Waylon and Daisie, which was revealed through his expression, is genuine.’
This made Maisie feel a little bewildered for an instant.
“Your name is Maisie Vanderbilt, am I right?”
“Yes.” She nodded blankly.
Mr. Goldmann smiled kindly. “Then I shall call you Zee from now on. By the way, I brought you a gift before I came here.”
