Chapter 1023
Nolan took Maisie by surprise. She turned her head around and said, “I’m cooking.”
He chuckled deeply and said, “Yeah, I know. I can smell it from upstairs.”
“Really? It seems like my cooking has improved a bit.” Maisie spooned out a bit to taste the flavor before
passing the spoon near his lips. “Give it a try.”
Nolan leaned over and pressed his lips over hers. Then, he laughed. “It’s sweet.”
“You…” Maisie’s face turned red with embarrassment as she pushed him away.” You’re so shameless.”
He let out a muffled chuckle as his chest vibrated. He turned her around and asked,” You just learned
that I’m shameless after knowing me for so long?”
He turned off the fire and lowered his head to kiss her. Today was another day Maisie fell for his charms
again. As she responded to his passionate kisses, she complained in an intermittent whisper, “Sooner or
later, I’m going to die in your hands.”
He chuckled lightly and whispered into her ear, “Don’t worry. I’ll make sure you’ll live a long life with me.”
They continued with their intimate activity for a long while. After they were done, Nolan carried her to the
table and kissed the top of her head. “Sit here. I’ll set up the table.”
Soon, Nolan set up the table and brought a piece of meat to her mouth. “Come, open your mouth.”
Maisie was tickled pink by him and said,’
What am I to you? Kid?”
He put his hand on his forehead and lifted his eyebrow. “Well, you can be a kid if you want in front of
your husband.”
Suddenly, his phone on the table rang. She glanced at it, and it was a call from Anthony.
Nolan answered the call and talked to Anthony for a while. When he hung up the call, Maisie asked,
“What’s the matter?”
Nolan looked at her and smiled. “His daughter has woken up.”
Maisie was stunned.
His daughter had been in a coma for 11 years, and she had woken up?
Maisie thought of something and hastily pulled her phone out. “I have to tell Ryleigh about this.”
At Bassburgh Airport…
Ryleigh and Louis went straight to the nursing home as soon as they arrived at the airport. By the time
they arrived at the nursing home, Nolan and Maisie were standing in the corridor waiting for them.
She walked up to Maisie and asked pantingly, “Did she really awaken?”
Maisie glanced toward the ward as her answer. Ryleigh followed her gaze and looked into the ward. She
saw that Naomi was sitting on her bed talking to her father.
Naomi turned her head around, and she was stunned when she saw Ryleigh standing outside of the
ward. Then, she smiled at her and asked, “Is that Ryleigh?”
Anthony rose to his feet and said, “I’m sure you two have a lot to talk about, so I’ll go out first.”
Naomi smiled and nodded. Anthony then came out of the ward.
Ryleigh lowered her head and pressed her lips tightly. She paced into the ward and said, “Naomi, y-
you’re awake.”
“Yeah.” Naomi looked at her. “My dad has told me everything. I’m sorry, Ryleigh. It must have been very
hard for you in the past few years while I was in a coma.”
Ryleigh scratched her cheek and replied.” It’s fine. It’s all in the past, and I got over it long ago.”
She smiled upon saying that and added.” I’m really happy that you managed to wake up.” Ryleigh and
Naomi chatted happily in the ward while Louis stood by the door and watched them without saying
anything.
Naomi looked toward the door and asked with a smile, “Is that your boyfriend?”
Ryleigh was stunned. She turned her head around to look at Louis. When she spun her head back to
face Naomi, there were two blushes on her cheeks. “We’re going to get married soon.”
Naomi laughed. “Congratulations, then.”
Ryleigh touched her cheeks. They were burning hot and she felt embarrassed. After chatting for a while,
Ryleigh came out and let Naomi take her rest. She bade her goodbye and came out to the corridor.
“Where is Zee?” she asked after looking around.
