“Yes, I envied him for having parents who love him, and I envied the freedom that he has.” Helios explained with a

smile.

The loneliness in his eyes made Maisie feel that he was indeed envious of Nolan.

Helios added indifferently, “Someone once told me that it will be a tragedy if humans don’t have any dreams and

don’t have the guts to live for themselves but only know how to follow the rules and survive this world, jumping

from one day to another.”

He then turned to look at her. “The person who said that was Nolan’s mother, Aunt Natasha Knowles,”

Maisie opened her mouth but did not speak.

He continued to say slowly. “The elders in my family have always been very strict. When I was young, besides

learning etiquette and established practices, I also had to read various books 10 supplement my knowledge. And

after I went to a private college, I had to learn even more things. Thus, I didn’t have enough time to relax. I didn’t

even dare to hope to be able to make friends back then.”

Maisie understood that being born into a prestigious family would bless one with noble status, but the rules that one

had to obey would be extremely strict too.

“Then how did you and Nolan get to know each

other?” Maisie seemed to have a whim and wanted to know more about Nolan’s childhood all of a sudden.

Helios moved on with the story. “My family punished me to kneel in front of the portraits of my ancestors because I

made a mistake back then. I felt too aggrieved and ran away from the manor. That was when I ran into Nolan and

his mother on the street.”

Helios had only been a few years old at the time, and Nolan was only one year older than him. Natasha had seen

him crying helplessly in the corner, so she had stepped forward to ask him about his encounter and then brought

him back to the Goldmann mansion.

From that time, he and Nolan had gotten to know each other. Helios would feel a sense of carefree happiness in the

Goldmann mansion, and there was where he could get to feel the warmth of a home.

Natasha had been treating him very well. He would go to the Goldmann mansion to play whenever he was free, and

Natasha would make him his favorite snacks as if he were one of her sons.

When Nolan noticed how much his mother liked Helios back then, he became very calculative, jealous and had

always liked to talk back to him. And whenever he could not win in a quarrel or a fight, Nolan would just cry

Helios burst into laughter. “But there were times when Nolan treated me well. He would give me medicine every

time I was sentenced to kneel before the portraits, and my knees were slightly swollen. He would bring me along to

play basketball with him when I told him that I had never played basketball. He was also the one who brought me to

the beach when I told him that I had never seen the ocean. Although his father reprimanded us big time when he

found us, Nolan was the one who stood up for me.

“There was even one time when he came to my house and scolded my grandfather just because he beat me u p.

And in order to help me vent my anger, he released all the canaries that my grandfather raised. Those canaries

were very expensive, and it made my

grandfather extremely exasperated back then.”

Maisie chuckled. “Was he that naughty back then?”

Helios nodded. “It wasn’t until Aunt Natasha’s accident that he changed completely. He no longer likes the fun and

astir, he’s taciturn, and even his emotions are beyond comprehension. I hadn’t seen him again for a few years after

I graduated from high school. I only reunited with him again at a banquet that took place after he came back from

college to take over Blackgold.”

Maisie lowered her gaze. “Did you enter the entertainment industry because of his mother?”



“Yeah.” Helios looked at her. “Because she once said to me that one can’t control their origin, but their life is

another story. I didn’t want to be tied to the Bouchers all my life as my father did. I didn’t want not to be able to do

what I want to do and wait for my family to arrange everything for me. Do you know that my father couldn’t even

choose the woman that he has to live with for the rest of his life by himself?”
