Chapter 1333
After saying something to the police, Nolan walked toward Maisie, pulled her into his arms,
and tightened his hug.
Maisie sniffed the soothing fragrance on his body and chuckled softly. “I knew you would get
here in time?’
He kissed the top of her head vigorously and sneered from the bottom of his throat.
However, his tone sounded reproachful. “You always take the liberty to act by yourself. You
would’ve been blown to pieces if I couldn’t get here in time.”
Maisie looked up at him. “It’s because I believe in you and Colton.”
While she was on her way to meet Maxine, Maisie received a call from Nolan, and Colton was
next to him.
They had managed to locate Maxine, so they had pinpointed the area where Maxine was at.
As long as the area had network coverage, they could find out her exact location and the
route she could use to escape.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSince the place Maxine had not chosen a suitable escape route, she must have never
planned to escape from the beginning and might have chosen to end things in a more
extreme way.
And that was to bring someone down together with her.
Therefore, they had sent someone to the hotel where Maxine stayed and found a batch of remote device
purchases that Maxine had made abroad, and included in the order were remote-controlled explosives.
Because the bomb that she had set up could not be detonated physically, the bomb could be detonated remotely
through the network. Thus, as long as the network in this area was blocked, the remote control would lose its ability
to detonate the explosives.
Maisie had faith in Nolan and Colton, which was why she would bet that the bomb would not detonate when Maxine
pressed the button on that remote control.
Nolan held her cheeks in his palms, not knowing whether he should be exasperated or amused by her. “ I really
can’t do anything about you.”
Back at the Goldmann mansion...
Colton and Daisie were already waiting for Maisie to come home, when she returned home, the two of them
hurried over. “Mom!”
Daisie threw herself into her arms. “I’m sorry, Mom! It’s all my fault. I got Lisa embroiled in this incident. I shouldn’t
have let her wear my clothes.”
When she learned she was the one that would have been kidnapped, she felt very guilty. After all, Lisa had been
kidnapped only because Daisie had lent her her clothes.
Maisie raised her hand, stroked her head, and said with a smile, “It has nothing to do with you. You only wanted to
help your friend, and no one could predict such a thing would happen.”
Daisie cried out loud.
Nolan walked up to her and rubbed the top of her head. “Alright, you’re a grown girl now, and you’re still crying in
your mother’s arms. We’ve rescued Lisa.”
Daisie wiped her tears. “Then can I go and visit her in a few days?”
Maisie paused for a bit and then nodded. “Yeah, your mother will accompany you to pay her a visit a few days
later.”
After the children went upstairs, Maisie turned to look at Nolan. “How did you know that Maxine’s mother was
poisoned to death by her?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm‘I really wouldn’t have known that if it weren’t for the information that Nolan shared on the
phone. And Maxine actually admitted to doing so.’
Nolan took her into his arms. “That geezer found out about those old incidents.”
The geezer that he referred to was his grandfather.
Maisie was stunned.
Nolan caressed her cheek with his palm. “I told you about the cause of Uncle Summers’s
death the other day, right? It’s said that he was killed by a knife when he ran into a robber
abroad. But when the police looked into the old cases, the belongings in Uncle Summers’s
bag were not stolen.”
“So, the killer did not kill for his money.” Maisie looked at him.
Nolan responded with a faint hum and continued. “ The other party didn’t want his money,
so it was obviously a premeditated murder. Besides, Uncle Summers had not offended
anyone when he was abroad.”
Maisie lost her composure. “Could it be... Is it Maxine?”
She recalled Maxine’s words, saying that she had avenged her mother.
