Chapter 511
“But if everyone learned that you’re Hernandez’s granddaughter, as well Alice of the Metropolis, and
even have an intimate relationship with me, do you think they’d let you go?”
Maisie looked at him with a neutral expression. “So I have no choice but to work with you?”
Daniel shrugged. “You just need to lay low. We’ll take care of everything.”
Maisie smiled and raised the wine glass, but there was no joy in her eyes. “Let’s work together then.”
Daniel didn’t touch his glass as he seemed to have seen someone. He squinted, and his eyes flashed.
Maisie turned around and saw Nolan being pushed in by Quincy in a wheelchair. The bodyguards and
Daniel’s bodyguards faced each other, and the air became still as if a battle was about to break out.
Maisie stood up immediately and turned to look at Daniel. “You did this intentionally?”
Daniel shrugged, his face not showing a hint as to whether this was deliberate or he was oblivious.
“Mr. Kent, we haven’t met in three years. I didn’t know that you were close with my ex-wife.”
Nolan’s eyes were as dark as the night sky. It was as if a storm was brewing. His aura was cold and
turbulent.
Daniel’s slight shock disappeared quickly. ‘They’re divorced?’
Maisie parted her lips. “I didn’t-”
“I guess I don’t have the right to care if you meet with Ms. Vanderbilt.” Nolan coldly looked at her.
Maisie swallowed everything she was about to say when she saw how indifferent he was.
Daniel picked up the wine glass with a smile. “You’re not resting but instead came here. Aren’t you
worried that I’d-”
“Don’t you dare.” Maisie’s face sank, but Daniel didn’t seem to care.
“If you’re already divorced, why do you still care about him?”
“It’s none of your business.”
“Really?” Daniel slowly stood up and sounded condescending, “You are my partner.”
“You!”
“Partner?” Nolan’s expression changed, and he scoffed. “I guess you no longer care about your
grandfather.”
“No, I, 1-”
“There’s no need to explain, I don’t care.” Nolan ignored her explanation. “Quincy, let’s go.”
Quincy nodded and pushed the wheelchair away.
Maisie wanted to follow but Daniel’s creepy voice said, “Since you bumped into each other and he
doesn’t believe you, why do you still care about a dying man?”
“Daniel Kent, it’s a waste of fresh air for an emotionless man like you to be alive.”
Maisie’s arms that were held close to her body relaxed. She then turned around and looked at him.” Why
would Nolan suddenly show up here?”
Daniel shrugged. “I really don’t know.”
“You’ve pushed me under the bus once, so I can’t trust you anymore!”
Maisie picked up her bag and was going to leave with Saydie, but Daniel put down his glass. “Aren’t you
the one who told him?”
His eyes were piercing and dangerous, just like when they had met for the first time.
Maisie paused and turned around to look at him. “Do you think I would tell Nolan that I was going to meet
you and coincidentally let him find out that we’re working together?”
Daniel pressed the glass on his lips but didn’t take a sip.
“You know how important Nolan is to me, so you forced me into working with you. I’d rather he knew that
I was forced into this, You’ve achieved your goal.”
