Colton could guess what was going on and chuckled. โDaisie is busy with her career. Announcing her marriage might affect it.โDaisie was suddenly unhappy and put down her cutlery. โPeople whoโre in the industry are allowed to get married. The worst that can happen is that I will lose fans, but Iโm not worried about that. Even if I get married, it shouldnโt affect anything.โโOh, then why hasnโt Mr. Knowles proposed to you yet? Has he changed his mind?โDaisie gnashed her teeth as she knew he was attacking her because of her complaint.She took a deep breath and forced a smile. โColton, why donโt you mind your own business? You incel.โColton smiled. โWhoโs an incel?โโWhoever answers is the incel.โShe then got up and went upstairs.Maisie helplessly shook her head. They were acting like rugrats. โColton, angering your sister wonโt do you any good.โColton was casual about it. โWhat could go wrong?โMaisie placed down her cutlery and asked him, โYouโre not exactly young anymo
Colton raised his eyebrows. โWhatโs going on?โLeonardo covered the phone and looked troubled. โMr. Goldmann, the realtor said that that villa was sold two days ago.โColton and Leonardo went to the sales gallery and were warmly welcomed by the manager. After he found out why they were there, he could only smile sorrily. โMr. Goldmann, Iโm so sorry. This happened because my team wasnโt properly informed.โThe villa had been sold two days ago, and the realtor forgot to remove the ad after the paperwork was finalized. Thus, this caused the misunderstanding. It would be alright just to apologize if it were any other person, but this party was the second heir of the Goldmannsโthe hardest to deal with. Colton sat down on the couch while someone poured him a cup of coffee. โWho bought it?โLeonardo looked at him in surprise. Was he going to buy it from the buyer?The manager awkwardly said, โUmโฆ Why donโt I help you find out?โEven if the buyer was somebody prominent, it was be
Edison passed the phone to Nollace.Nollace answered the phone and said, โIt seems like you know itโs me, Colton.โColton gnashed his teeth before asking, โAre you very poor now, Nollace? How could you scam my money?โNollace chuckled and said, โI just want to see how much you want this villa. After all, you're not getting the villa if you don't pay enough for it.โColton took a deep breath and said, โ We'll be seeing each other a lot from now onward, so you shouldn't burn your bridges in case you need them in the future.โNollace knew what he was hinting at and chuckled. โI doubt you have a say in this. Have you ever asked your sister about it?โโDonโt you ever think of dragging my sister into this.โโAre you giving this villa to someone?โColton was stunned and replied stiffly, โItโs none of your business.โโThen I guess there is no need for us to continue this conversation anymore.โNollace hung up the call, and he could imagine how dark Colton's expression was on the othe
โI thought something happened. You look really pale now, you know?โโReally?โ Freyja touched her face unconsciously, and then she froze.โI look pale right now? But why? Is it because of the news? Is it because I care?โDaisie put her hand on her forehead. โAre you not feeling well?โFreyja took her hand away and said, โIโm fine, really. Maybe I didnโt sleep well last night.โOh yeah, I heard that your brother is buying a new villa. Is he getting married soon?โโIโve called him.โ Daisie crossed her arms in front of her chest. โI was shocked and thought he was going to get married too.โAfter she finished speaking, she mumbled, โWell, thereโs no way a man with a sharp tongue like my brother can get a wife.โThe corner of Freyjaโs lips quivered as she said slowly, โIt seems to me that Ms. Peterson and your brother make quite a good couple. Maybe, she'll be your future sister-in-law.โโGiselle?โ Daisie thought for a while and said, โItโs true that Giselle is gentle and ladylike,
When Freyja walked past him, Colton grabbed her arm and pulled her back.Losing her balance, she fell into his arms. She tried to free herself from his arms, but he did not allow her.โWhat the hell do you want now?โHe covered her mouth and turned his face sideways. โGo brush your teeth first. Then, weโll talk.โFreyja was rendered speechless. She pushed him away and walked into the restroom.Colton massaged his temples. โDoes she think that I think she was the one who told Daisie to complain to our mother? Just what the hell is in her head?โAfter Freyja finished brushing her teeth, she came out of the restroom.Colton was standing in front of the window, talking to someone. When he saw her reflection through the window, he ended the call and turned around to look at her. โCan we talk now?โShe was stunned. โWhat do you want to talk about?โColton walked up to her. She took a step back unconsciously, but he pinned her into the corner. โWeโre going to talk about your cousin
Two days later, at the Goldmann mansionโฆNolan saw the news after returning from Octavia. He tossed the magazine on the table and raised his head to look at Colton and Nollace sitting opposite of him.โWhat were you two thinking?โColton looked at Nollace and said, โAsk him.โNollace just smiled and did not say anything.Nolan leaned against the back of the chair and crossed his legs. He gnashed his teeth and smiled. โYou two made the headlines just because of one villa, and now the villas in Taylorton are selling like hotcakes because of what you did. It seems to me that you two are really good at helping others to improve their business.โEveryone wanted a villa from Taylorton after Colton and Nollace started fighting for a villa there. It was like a free advertisement for Taylorton. Nollace picked up a cup and said, โDonโt be angry, Uncle Nolan. Since Taylorton has the guts to take advantage of the news to bring up the price, considering your family's financial status, it sh
Nollace lowered his gaze and smoothed out his sleeves. โCould it be that youโre going to acknowledge Freyja?โColtonโs eyes turned cold. โWhat do you mean?โโIโm sure you know what I mean.โ Nollace raised his head and looked at Colton meaningfully. โYour ambiguous relationship and the disparity between you are obstacles to her. She doesn't dare to take the first step, while you don't want to. So, it's best to end it before it's too late.โNollace walked past him toward his car. Edison opened the door for him.Suddenly, Coltonโs voice rang out. โDo you think you know the things between her and me very well?โThree years ago, she had been the one who blocked him and avoided him. He had never been toyed with by someone like that before.She was the one who refused to admit their relationship.Nollace stopped in front of his car and said without turning his head, โI donโt know what is going on between you two, but I know her well. Do you think she'd misunderstand if you were willing
Nollace responded with a hum. โNow.โโBut Iโll need to grab some documentation in order for us to get married...โNollace took a few documents out, and Daisie was shocked. โHow did you get your hands on them?โHe chuckled. โIt's, of course, my father-in-lawโs doing.โHe and Colton were at the Goldmann mansion today, talking about matters regarding Taylorton. At some point, Nolan asked to talk to him privately. He wanted Nollace to do something in order to commit himself to Daisie and make his position known.And with that being asked, Nollace actually took advantage of the opportunity to obtain her documentation.Daisie did not expect that her father would actually give him her documentation. She thought of something and turned her head away. โBut you havenโt even formally proposed to me yet.โHe calmly explained, โWeโll get married first, and Iโll give you a wedding proposal after this. I have everything planned out.โThis made her nervous. She still felt extremely uneasy when
โDaisie.โ Leah and Morrison walked up to her with wine glasses. โYou look so pretty today.โโThank you,โ Daisie said with a smile.Leah lifted her wine glass. โI propose a toast. Morrison and I wish you a happy marriage.โDaisie clinked glasses with her. โSame goes for you and Morrison.โAfter the toast, Cameron walked up to Daisie with Waylon. Behind them were Freyja, Colton, Maisie, and Nolan.Maisie raised her hand and caressed her on the cheek. โYou were great earlier today.โShe giggled. โReally?โNolan added, โYouโll forever be our dazzling pride, so yes.โDaisie grinned as if she was still the little princess of the family.Nollace came over. โDad, Mom, a toast to the both of you. Thank you for letting me have Daisieโs hand.โโConsider yourself lucky.โ Nolan snorted softly, picked up his wine glass, and clinked glasses with him. โYouโd better treat my daughter well from now on.โNollace glanced at Daisie. โDonโt worry. Sheโll forever be my one and only.โMaisie chuck
In order to make way for the wedding carriage, other vehicles had been forbidden from accessing the route from the palace to the cathedral.Daisie looked out of the carriageโthe streets were crowded with citizens, and they were all there to witness this grand scene.Nollace, sitting on the side, was wearing a double-breasted dark blue military jacket. He looked tall and broad, and there were two St. Patrickโs Stars on his epaulets, one on each side, a full set of medals on his chest, and other complicated decorations.He held the back of Daisieโs hand and smiled suddenly. โYou have sweaty palms.โDaisie looked back at him and responded with a trembling voice, โIโm nervous.โHe lifted her hand and kissed the back of her hand. โIโm here, so donโt be nervous. Just take it easy.โDaisieโs gaze landed on his wedding jacket. โYou look nice in this uniform.โNollace chuckled. โAnd my bride looks stunning too.โArriving at the cathedral, Nollace was separated from Daisie. Accompanied b
โBy the way, whereโs Cameron?โ asked Morrison.Waylon replied, โSheโs accompanying her father on a stroll. Iโm going to go meet them already, so Iโll leave you to yourselves for now. You can do whatever you want with your free time.โAfter saying that, he got up and left the couple.Morrison shook his head. โHeโs changed now that he has a wife.โโYouโre speaking as if you havenโt changed.โ Leah got up instantly and left the restaurant.Morrison put his cup down and caught up to her immediately. โHey, why would you leave me behind? Wait for me.โMaisie and Saydie came out of the private room and ran into Nolan and Quincy in the corridor.Quincy nodded. โMrs. Goldmann.โMaisie stopped in front of Nolan, and Nolan grabbed her by her hand. โHave you finished catching up?โโOf course. Didnโt you want to go to the Hathawaysโ villa with Dad in the afternoon?โNolan smiled. โI was waiting for you. Weโre just going over to have a meal together.โQuincy walked up to Saydieโs side and
Daisie grinned from ear to ear. โThen Iโll wear this crown on my wedding day, which can be considered an endorsement for my momโs jewelry company and design.โNollace hugged her from behind. โYou can do anything as long as you like it.โโฆThe members of the Goldmanns arrived in Yaramoor two days before the wedding and stayed in the hotel arranged by Nollace. The royal family had reserved the entire hotel for receiving distinguished guests from Zlokova who came to attend the wedding.Members from the Bouchers and the Lucases showed up, and Sunny was also present.There were also some familiar faces from the Zlokovian entertainment industry. Hannah, Amy, James, and Charlie, who were close friends with Daisie, all came.Leah and Morrison were also on the invitation list.When Maisie came to the restaurant, the waiter led her into a private room.As soon as she saw the man sitting inside, she smiled and exclaimed, โGodfather!โStrix slowly turned around.She had not seen him for
The rest of the people laughed.The night came, and the entire city was shrouded in a mist of neon light. Daisie and Nollace returned to Taylorton after having their dinner.Her hair was wet as she got out of the shower. Nollace took over her towel and helped her to dry her hair.She sat in front of her dresser and looked at the person behind her through the mirror. There was a smile tugging at the corner of her mouth as she said, โNolly, Iโm really looking forward to our wedding.โโReally?โ Nollace gently dried the soft tips of her hair. โIโm looking forward to it too.โโI can say that my life is perfect now, right? Since I can marry and walk down the aisle with the man I love the most.โHe laughed out loud and leaned down to her ear. โYou know what? All the wishes in my life have come true as well.โDaisie turned her head around. โWhat are your wishes?โโMarry you, give you a wedding, and have our own kids.โShe was stunned. Slowly, her face turned red due to her embarrassme
โYeah, itโs true,โ replied Zephir.โIt seems like youโve finally become more mature after coming back from your vacation.โ Naomi patted his shoulder. โI wish you all the best in your future endeavors.โ He smiled at her but did not say anything.โฆSoon, it was the end of the month. Their vacation had come to an end, and they returned to Bassburgh.Maisie and Nolan were waiting for them in the courtyard. After getting out of the car, Daisie ran up to them. โMommy! Daddy!โShe hugged both of them.Nolan petted her head and smiled helplessly. โYouโre an adult now. You should stop acting like a kid.โShe smiled back at them and said, โBut I know Iโll always be your kid in your eyes.โMaisie chuckled and looked at the other people. โIt seems like you guys had a lot of fun. Anyway, come in first. We should eat together tonight.โFreyja and Cameron went to look for their kids after they went into the house. Charm and her two cousins were staying in the same room. All of them were sl
Nollace looked at them. โWhat a coincidence.โโMorrison and I were here earlier than you guys,โ said Leah. โWe only found out that you guys were here when Daisie posted a photo on her Facebook page.โDaisie pulled Leah to the seat and said, โThen you should stay a few more days with us.โAfter Morrison took his seat, Waylon introduced him to Freyja and Daisie. โSheโs my sister-in-law, Freyja, and sheโs my sister. Her name is Daisie.โโIโve seen them before at your wedding,โ said Morrison. โYour sister is my wifeโs classmate. She has told me before.โโSince when did I become your wife? Thereโs a chance I may not marry you in the future,โ said Leah.โWeโre already engaged. If you donโt want to marry me, who else are you going to marry?โ Morrison frowned, causing the crowd to break out in a burst of laughter, save for Daisie.She looked at Leah in disbelief and asked, โEngaged? When did you get engaged, Leah?โ Leah cleared her throat and replied, โWell, I forgot to inform you abo
The stall owner said, โ$10 for three chances.โโ$10 for three chances only? Thatโs expensive,โ commented Freyja.The stall owner raised his head and said, โIโm the cheapest around here. Other stalls offer $15 for three chances.โ Daisie tugged at Freyja and said, โLet's just give him the money. It isn't easy for them to set up a stall here anyway, so let's have some fun.โAfter that, she gave $20 to the stall owner and said, โPlease give us six hoops.โThe stall owner gave her six hoops. She had her eyes set on a bracelet. Although she knew it was fake, it was rather beautiful. She held a hoop and threw it toward the bracelet.However, she did not get it.She threw another two hoops at the bracelet, but her attempts failed, much to her chagrin. She had only three hoops left.Seeing that Daisie was prepared to give up, Cameron took over the rest of the hoops in her hand and said, โLeave it to me.โShe squinted and aimed at the bracelet. After that, she threw the hoop at it an
The night of the old town was silent. The air was filled with nothing but the humming of insects. There was a lamp hanging outside of the tent on the grass. The atmosphere was quiet. Daisie was tossing and turning in the sleeping bag as sleep just wouldn't come to her. Suddenly, an arm appeared across her waist as she was brought into a chest. โWhatโs the matter? You canโt sleep?โโYeahโฆโ She buried her head in his chest and said, โI want to go to take a leak, but Iโm a little bit scared.โNollace kissed her forehead and said, โIโll go with you then.โBoth of them came out of the tent. Nollace took a flashlight and led Daisie to a row of trees in the distance. Daisie turned her head and said, โYou wait for me here.โNollace nodded. โJust shout my name if you need anything.โShe walked into the forest and stopped in front of a tree not far away from Nollace.After she had done her business, she hastily got out of the forest and held tightly to Nollaceโs arm. โAlright, letโs go
