Chapter 1381

Hector shrugged.

"Everything has been fine apart from the difficulty I faced at the beginning because of the language
barrier.However, after being there for a long time, I made friends, and things improved over time."

She smiled.

"That sounds great.By the way, what’s your friend’s name? You should invite him to Zlokova someday
in the future.I'll have to treat him to a meal for you."

"His name is Eric.By the way, his father used to be a shareholder of Luxella.I wonder if you’d know the
father?"

Maisie was startled.

"Which shareholder of Luxella?"

Hector replied, "His father’s name is Harry Knowles."

Maisie was astonished for a split second and then burst into laughter all of a sudden.

"He turns out to b e Mr.Knowles’ son.Then you’re truly a lucky b* stard."

‘Mr.Knowles has always been very friendly to others, and his connections in Stoslo are also very
strong.The apple never falls far from the tree, so the son that he brought up would naturally be as great
as the father.It can only be said that Hector is indeed very fortunate.‘ It’s said that birds of a feather
flock together.



Making excellent friends has always been considered a s collecting wealth on one’s path to success,
while messing around with bad friends will only impede his chance of succeeding.

‘This sounds very brutal and real because it’s the reality"

After the two of them had breakfast, when they were paying the bills at the cashier, they encountered
Tanner and a woman, who were coming in their direction.

Tanner was holding a child in one hand and the woman in the other—the whole scene looked very
warm and blissful.

Maisie did not recognize the woman, who was Pearl, but she was a little surprised when she saw this
scene.

Seeing Maisie, Pearl was stunned and stopped moving for a moment.

Tanner turned around and looked at her.

Maisie’s gaze was fixed on their interlocked hands.

‘Because of Pearl’s matter, Tanner has never had an affair with any other woman in the past three
years, and it’s even more impossible for him to have a child of this age.

‘Therefore, Pearl is the only one that he would treat with such care nowadays"

Maisie greeted them with a polite smile, followed Hector as he turned and was about to leave, walked
past the couple, and left the diner.

Pearl turned her head.

"Maisie."



Maisie stopped, turned around slowly, and glanced at Pearl.

Pearl let go of Tanner’s hand and walked toward her.

"I wish to talk to you."

Maisie took a glance at Tanner, and it did not look like he was going to stop her from doing so.

Thus, she gave off a smile.

"Okay."

Maisie and Pearl walked to the French windows in the corridor.

The plants outside the window looked so green and lively, bringing a different view to the rooftops
around the city.

Pearl looked out the window and said slowly, "You wanted to see me three years ago, but I didn’t agree
to meet you back then."

Maisie turned to look at her.

"I know."

"I used to hate you, but I don’t hate you anymore.I just don’t have the courage to face you."

Pearl turned around and stared at Maisie.

"Because I’1l think of those things that happened and the things that I did back then whenever I see
you.I thought I’d find relief by hiding from you.

That’s why I avoided meeting you cowardly."



"Maisie." She called her name.

"I can finally face you now."

Maisie stepped forward, stretched out her arms, and hugged her.

Pearl was astounded, and the darkness in her heart faded gradually as if the dark clouds that were
overcasting the rainy sky disappeared after the rain.It was replaced by a rainbow slashing across the
now clear sky.

Maisie smiled and comforted her.

"You’ve done a great job."

Pearl’s eyes turned bloodshot immediately.She could finally bid her past self goodbye and no longer
needed to live with the guilt anymore.

It rained very frequently during the hot summer.

Especially after the sweltering heat, there was always heavy rain.

Nolan stood in front of the French window with an arm akimbo, holding a mug of coffee.

The rain outside the window was so heavy that it almost clouded the surrounding scenery.

Quincy walked into the office and stood behind him after knocking on the door.

"Mr.Goldmann, the representative of Hannigans Inc.has come and left."

Nolan turned around.

"What did they say?"
