Chapter 1581
Nollace looked at Lisa without uttering a single word, and he did not give off any expression.His
expression looked so unchanged that even Lisa could not be sure if he had believed in her explanation
or not.
But she was afraid that she would be found out later, so she came up with an excuse.
"I won’t bother you anymore.I will take my leave first.Contact me at any time if you run into any
problem."
She then left in a hurry.
Nollace looked down at the contact details in his hand, and his expression could not help but dim.
On the other side of the mall, Daisie and the others were looking for Nollace, and they saw him
approaching them slowly.
"Nollace, why did you run away? And where did you go?" Daisie walked up to him angrily.
"We wouldn’t be able to explain this to your uncle if you were to get lost." Colton snorted.
"Why would you worry that he’d get lost? Just how old is he?"
Leah and Zephir did not say anything.Nollace’s gaze landed on Daisie’s face.No matter how he looked
at it, Daisie did not look like the type of person that the other girl had just described—she did not look
like someone that would threaten others.
In fact, he did not believe it.It was just that the memory fragments that had been flashing across his
mind were somewhat consistent with what the girl had described.
‘These things seem strange"
After a long while, he smiled.
"Sorry, I’ve made you worry."
Daisie handed him the coffee in her hand.
"I bought this for you."
He paused slightly, took the coffee from her, and gave off a faint smile.
"Don’t you hate me very much?"
Daisie was stunned, then turned her face away and said confidently, "You’re indeed quite annoying, but
you’re out with us now.If anything were to happen to you, we’d be scolded when we returned home."
Her expression looked very straightforward, and she did not even try to conceal her hatred for him, but
she did not show any malice.
‘Real hatred doesn’t look like this"
The coffee in his palm still felt warm, just like the emotions that were surging in his chest cavity at the
moment.
The warmth that pervaded him enveloped his heart.
Leah and Zephir went back first, and the three of them then took a car back to the Goldmann mansion.
While they were on their way home, Colton and Nollace ignored each other.
The atmosphere was so awkward that Daisie, who was sitting in the middle, felt extremely
uncomfortable.
Nollace propped his hand against the side of his forehead, leaned against the car window, glanced at
Daisie, who was sitting beside him through the corners of his eyes, and whispered, "Does your brother
hate me because I surpassed him in grades in the past?"
Daisie was startled.
Colton choked on his own words and turned his head.
"I can hear what you just whispered to my sister."
The corner of Nollace’s mouth raised.
"Then did I get it right?"
"Your grades were indeed good, but my grades were not that bad either.So I didn't need to be jealous
of you because of this."
Colton crossed his arms.
"Besides, we don’t really need a reason to dislike someone, do we?"
Nollace ignored Colton and looked at Daisie.
"Then what about you?"
Colton reached out to maintain the distance between the two of them.
"Hey, I’m not transparent."
Daisie lowered her gaze and whispered after a while, "I...I don’t hate you."
"Daisie, you—"
Colton was about to say something, but Nollace interrupted him.
"Can't she express her own thoughts?"
Colton scoffed.
"She’s my sister, and you’re not in the position to care for her.Besides, who are you to do so?"
Nollace smiled.
"I may not be in the position to do so, but seeing that you’re so protective when she’s around, all I can
say is that it's not necessary.
"You want to protect her, but you’re overprotecting her.She’s no different from the delicate flowers that
have spent their whole life in a conservatory.Society won't show any mercy to people who are too
simple and kind."
Colton laughed and said, "Anyway, no matter whether it’s now or in the future, her eldest brother and I
have the ability to protect her.Our little sister doesn’t need to be too good at everything because her
eldest brother and I can do anything for her."
