Chapter 964
Nolan was at a loss of words.
After a while, he rubbed his forehead and explained earnestly, “Daisie, you must understand that this
isn’t my territory, and I only came here to save you.” ‘Octavia isn’t part of the mainland, let alone
Bussburgh. It’s indeed inconvenient and inappropriate for the Goldmanns to intervene in anything that
happens here. Not to mention that the two families have had no grudges against each other, so there’s
no need for him to start a feud for no reason.
‘It’s understandable for me to offend the Cliffords because they abducted Daisie in the first place, and I
came here only to save my daughter.
‘Elder Master Clifford only wants Nollace and is willing to let Daisie go, which means he’s doing me a
favor out of basic courtesy.’
Daisie sobbed. “Will Nolly die?” Nolan lifted his hand to wipe away the tears that were rolling down from
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe corners of her eyes. “Daisie, I know that you are a kind girl and don’t want to leave your friends
behind, but you’re still young. There are some things that adults can’t do even if they want to very badly.
After all, there are still many details that we need to look into and consider here. I would do anything here
if I had nothing to worry about. However, you’re currently by my side, and your safety is my top priority.”
“Aren’t you just worried that I’ll implicate you?” Daisie looked at Nolan with her teary eyes, stood up, and
wiped away her tears. “I don’t need you to protect me, I can protect myself.
Nolan laughed and looked at her, “You’re still just a little girl. How can you protect yourself?”
Daisie made a face at him. “You should never look down on little girls.”
She then left in a hurry after refuting him.
Quincy, who was standing at the side, shook his head helplessly and stared at Nolan, who was
approaching him. “Mr. Goldmann, the young lady won’t cause any more troubles, right?”
‘This little girl is very smart. She might even be the one who set the warehouse on fire back in the
seaside township in order to buy us some time. But if it weren’t for that fire, those men wouldn’t have
transferred Noilace to Octavia in such a short time.’
Nolan looked at Daisie, who was walking away, and could not help but let off a wry smile. “I wonder who
this girl got all these traits from . Just get someone to protect her secretly.”
Speaking of that, he thought of something and asked, “How is Zee doing back in Bussburgh?”
‘She probably knows about this now.’
Quincy paused for a bit and said, “Mrs. Goldmann went to Tristan, and she seems to have gone to see
Jackie too.” Nolan’s eyes dimmed slightly. He pursed his lips tightly as he thought about something.
Quincy knew what Nolan was worried about. “Mr. Goldmann, you don’t have to worry about Mrs.
Goldmann. She’ll definitely not let herself get hurt or suffer, but do we really want to stay in Octavia for a
while longer?”
Nolan responded faintly.
Thomas intended to keep us here for some reason, and I wish to see through that reason that’s running
through his mind.’
At Bassburgh, at a diner…

Tristan removed the teabag from the mug.” You’ve threatened Jackie. Are you not afraid that he’ll
retaliate against you in secret?” Maisie took a sip of the Arabica coffee from the mug carefully and said
with a calm expression, “The question that you should ask is, will he be able to get back to Octavia in
one piece if he retaliates against me in Bussburgh?” She then put down the teacup, lifted her eyebrows,
and gave off a smile. “It’s not wise for him to come at me as it won’t do him any good.” Tristan was
startled and gave off a hearty laugh. “As expected from the matriarch of the Goldmanns. Your fearless
temper resembles that of Nolan’s quite a bit.”
‘You don’t get to get married to someone without sharing some traits with him and his family. I finally
understand the meaning behind this sentence now.’
Maisie went straight to the point. “Jackie said that Elder Master Clifford and your mother have known
each other since a long time ago. If your mother could persuade him into making a move, I really can’t
think of a reason that would convince Elder Master Clifford into helping her to deal with the Knowles if it
weren’t for profit.”
Tristan could not help but respond sullenly, “I don’t know what happened between her and Elder Master
Clifford. The only thing that I know is that she hates the Knowles and me. I wish to know why too.”
