Chapter 446

Maisie kissed his cold lips again, clung to his body, and seduced him with subtle hints.

She thought she could do so but soon realized that she was wrong.

Nolan was indifferent. If it were not for the restraint he had been renowned for and proud of, then he
must have lost his interest in her.

Maisie distanced herself from his lips slowly. She could feel a slight discomfort with each and every
breath she took.

‘Should I choose to believe that he has really grown bored of me and doesn’t love me anymore? Or, is
this his way of forcing me to leave him?

She clenched her fists tightly. “Nolan, what if I say I won’t give up?”

Nolan was taken aback, but the surprise disappeared in a flash as he turned his head away. “You should
go back first.”

Maisie stepped forward and hugged him.

Nolan’s body tensed up while his hand that was in midair clenched slowly into a fist, suppressing his
urge to embrace her tightly in his arms.

Maisie’s voice sounded light. “Nolan, I don’t believe that you no longer love me. Even if you don’t, I’ll.. I’ll

find a way to make you fall in love with me again.”

The astonishment in Nolan’s eyes quickly disappeared. Although his love for her had never declined, he
still acted ruthlessly.



He pulled Maisie away from his arms, “Go back first. I’ll go and pick you up in the evening. We still have
to play the parts that we should play in front of the kids.”

Maisie pursed her lips. Although she felt a little disappointed, at least, they still had one last bond
connecting the both of them-the children. She could not help but laugh at herself when she walked out of
the office.

‘We can only maintain this “relationship between us thanks to the kids.

‘Nolan… Is he really serious about this?’

After Maisie left, Quincy walked into the office with some documents while Nolan was smoking a
cigarette in front of the window. There were already a few cigarette butts in the ashtray.

It was the first time Quincy had seen him smoke so much.



“Mr. Goldmann, about this divorce agreement, are you really…” Quincy knew that Nolan was doing this
for Maisie’s sake. However, as an outsider, even he could see how much Nolan cared about Maisie. But
because of how much he cared, there was nothing else that he could do apart from this.

Even the divorce conditions were designed to safeguard Maisie’s future as half of the share of the entire
Blackgold Group would be hers to own after this.

In a low and deep voice, Nolan said, “Put it on the table.”

Quincy placed the agreement on the table.

Nolan then took a long drag on the cigarette in his hand, turned around, and flicked the ash on the tip
into the ashtray. “Is there any news from Stoslo?”



Quincy replied, “Elder Master Goldmann has captured all their men, but Daniel had already abandoned
those people. It’s obvious that Daniel won’t do anything for those men. As for the doctor and nurses who
were murdered in the hospital, it seems that they want to hide the virus from the world.”

Nolan frowned. “What about the prince?”

Quincy added, “Prince Roger hasn’t made a single move for the time being. This should be because he’s
afraid of startling the royal family.”

King Miller was still in power in the royal family. Ever since the incident involving that eldest princess
back then, the Millers had been going against Prince Roger, who desired to expand his influence among
the royal family. Hence, if the Millers were to find out that Prince Roger had a hand in the scheme, it
would be difficult for him to get out of this mess unscathed.

No matter what, the princess and the Millers were related by blood, and she was the only princess. Thus,
even though Prince Roger was related to the Millers too, he was still only an illegitimate child. His
biological mother was only a maid who had tried her best to find her way into the king’s chamber and
succeeded. Prince Roger could not inherit the throne because of his ineligible identity.

Prince Roger had been living a simple life for decades. He had plenty of people who would do his dirty
work for him, so he never needed to show up. What’s more, the Kents’ objective was obvious-they were
supporting Prince Roger to achieve their own desired goals.
