Chapter 1196
Naomi lifted her head, looked at the bonsai flowers on the windowsill, and thought of that man
subconsciously again. She knew about the Bouchers and also Helios, and it was the first time she got to
know the second heir of the Bouchers.
Coralia was extremely cold and was covered in snow during the winter. Maisie was wearing a white
down jacket, and her face was flushed from the cold as soon as she got out of the car.
Nolan wrapped a scarf around her neck and could not help but chuckle. “It’s said that women are more
resistant to cold than men, yet look at you.”
Maisie refuted angrily, “That’s not an
absolute thing. It depends on the person too!”
Nolan covered her freezing cheeks with his warm palms. “Isn’t it colder in Morwich during the winter?”
Maisie responded with a hum and lowered her eyelids. “That’s why I don’t leave home.”
He stroked the ends of her hair. “Let’s find ourselves a hot spring hotel to stay for the night first, and I’ll
accompany you back to Vanderbilts ancestral mansion tomorrow.”

She had come to Coralia because of her promise to Hector. Hector’s grandmother and father did not
know about his plan to travel abroad.
Nolan replied lightly, “The fact that you’re going there alone worries me.” Maisie did not refuse either.
They found a high-end hot spring B&B to stay at. The style of the facility was simple and elegant. Each
room was equipped with an independent backyard. The hot spring pool under the rockery made the area
look foggy and steamy due to the vapor. The frost and snow on the red eaves melted and dripped on the
bluestone pavement. The plum blossoms in the corners of the backyard added a touch of color to the
snow-white environment.
Maisie wrapped herself in a towel and stepped into the hot spring, and the warmth soothed her freezing
body.” Having access to a hot spring during winter is really a blessing.”
Nolan wrapped a towel around his waist and sat down beside her. “It’s indeed very comfortable.”
Maisie approached him. “Is it too cruel that we didn’t bring Colton and Daisie along?” He smiled. “This is
our trip. What makes you think that it’d be convenient if we were to have brought along those two?”
Maisie leaned on his shoulder and sneered. “Do you still remember the time when we were in Winston
Island when you hadn’t regained your memory?”
Nolan tilted his head, looked at her, and raised her face. “Do you want to remember that time?”
She paused for a second. “Our time on Winston Island?” He stared fixedly at her with his pregnant gaze.
“Don’t you remember that?” “I’m being serious here.” Maisie smacked his hand away as her cheeks
flushed.
She was about to get up when Nolan reached out and pulled her back into his arms. “I shall give you a
massage.” She looked at him suspiciously. “Are you sure that it’ll just be a massage?”
He responded softly, “Of course.”
Nolan turned her around, and she leaned against the pool’s edge. He then started massaging her back
platonically. “Is this force comfortable?”
Maisie chuckled. “I didn’t expect you, the prestigious Mr. Goldmann, to know how to massage someone
else too. What a pleasant surprise.”
He approached her ear. “There’s more to me than what you can think of.” Before Maisie could react,

doing this on purpose!” Nolan still did not let her go. He tickled Maisie to the extent where she teared up
from all the laughter. “Nolan, just how childish can you be? Hahahaha!”
“Have you gotten tired from all the laughing?” he asked.
Maisie laughed until she was out of breath, so she lay against the edge of the pool and glared at him.
“What do you think?”
“So, do you feel more relaxed?” he asked.
Maisie was stunned for a split second. She had been swamped for more than half a year and had not
taken any time off during this period. It would be a lie to say that she was not tired, but she felt a lot more
relaxed now after the massage and laughter.
“Do you really think I want to accompany you here on vacation because I think you’ve been too busy?”
Nolan took her into his arms and kissed her on the top of her head. “I’m worried that you’ll suffer from
burnout if this continues.”
A wave of warm tears assaulted Maisie’s eyes, and she plunged into his arms with a smile. “Thank you,
hubby!”
‘Love has always been a relationship of mutual understanding and tolerance. So maybe this is what love
and marriage should look like:
