Chapter 72
Nolan snorted. “You can take that as a threat if you think it can be counted as one. After all, d o you still
think you can escape me under my nose?”
Maisie was rendered speechless.
The next day…
Maisie stepped into the company as punctual as always and suddenly saw Nolan and Quincy coming in
her direction from around the corner..
Nolan’s lips were still showing symptoms that they had been bitten, and there was a small scab in the
wound. It was conceivable that she had reacted mercilessly yesterday.
She wanted to avoid seeing them, but it was already too late.
Maisie looked away as she did not want to think about what had happened yesterday and smiled in
differently. “Good morning, Mr. Goldmann.”
Nolan stared at her for a moment and opened his thin lips and pearl-white teeth. “I thought you would
avoid me.”
“We work under the same roof, so meeting each other from time to time is inevitable. Plus, I didn’t do

Nolan frowned slightly. ‘Even her smile is fake. She has always been disguising herself in front of me. It’s
not that I’ve not seen her smile genuinely before this. It’s just that it wasn’t directed to me.’
He recalled the “man” whom she had talked to in the previous two calls.
“I still have tasks to attend to. See you around.” Maisie turned around and entered the elevator without
giving him a chance to say anything.
What she did not expect was that Nolan actually followed her into the elevator. Even Quincy was
dumbfounded that he did not choose to board his personal elevator and chose to squeeze himself into
an elevator that was packed solid with others!
Maisie looked at him. “Mr. Goldmann, you don’t seem to use this elevator, do you?”
“I can choose to experience it occasionally, can’t I?” Nolan replied unconcernedly while closing the
elevator door before Quincy could follow.
Maisie did not say a word but only moved a little away from him.
Nolan cast a sidelong glance at her, saw her silently moving away from him, and frowned.” You seem to
dislike being slightly close to me?”
“You’re quite a humorous man, Mr. Goldmann. I don’t want to get close to you just because I don’t want
other people to bad-mouth me. After all, you’re a man who has a girlfriend, so please do also keep your
own nose clean.”
The corners of Nolan’s mouth tightened. ‘Is she mocking my relationship with Willow?‘
However, he could see that she cared about his relationship with Willow, so the corners of his lips were
slightly lifted. “I’ve never admitted that Willow is my girlfriend. If you take offenset o that, I can announce
that you—”
The elevator’s door suddenly opened, and several employees standing outside the elevator were
shocked to see Nolan in the elevator. 1
Nolan’s face turned sullen after a short moment. “What’s taking you so long?”
Those employees stepped into the elevator tremblingly.
‘My God, why would Mr. Goldmann take the employees’ elevator?!’ The atmosphere in the elevator was
very oppressive.
was
None of the employees dared to speak, and they did not even dare to breathe. Getting into an elevator

this moment was that the elevator could go faster!
Maisie was being bulldozed against the wall, and everyone was almost treading upon each other’s heels,
but no one dared to take a step nearer to Nolan’s side of the elevator.
‘F*cking hell! Everyone is squeezing toward my side of the elevator!’
Nolan stretched out his hand and dragged her to his side. Maisie was about to break free, but he
tightened his grip.
And because of the fact that Nolan was behind them, no one dared to look back, so it was only natural
that they did not realize this.
Maisie’s arm that he was clutching was a little stiff. She really wanted to slap him if the circumstances
would allow her to do so.
‘It was in the office yesterday, but this man is getting more and more blatant now!
sa
Maisie’s heart skipped a beat all of a sudden. Nolan loosened his grasp slightly, slid his hand downward,
wrapped his fingers around her palm, and clasped it. Maisie turned her head stiffly to look at the man
beside her, Nolan did not look at her, but she caught a glimpse of the arc hanging on his face.
