The Three Little Guardian Angels

Chapter 589
“Yeah.” Maisie closed the newspaper and raised her head. “I’m heading to the company today, so I won’t stay here with you.”
“Are you going to work too?”
“Otherwise, are you going to pay my bills?” She raised her eyebrows with a smirk, picked up a glass of milk on the table, finished it in one go, and was about to get up
“Are you saying that I can’t afford to pay your bills for you?” Nolan looked at her aggressively.
“Am I so lousy that even my wife has to go out to work now?’
Maisie could not help laughing upon hearing this. She walked to his side and leaned over to look at him with her arms propped against the dining table, pretending to be aggrieved. “I went out to work because you said you dislike prodigal women. You also mentioned that you prefer smart and independent women.”
“D-Did I say that?” Nolan frowned and pondered over that statement for a moment but to no avail.
Maisie pressed her fingertips against his lips and said in an enchanting and seductive tone, “Hubby, I’m about to depart for work already . so don’t miss me too much.”
Nolan’s Adam’s apple rolled, but Maisie had already pulled herself away and left the scene without waiting for him to react at all.

He froze in place and was forced to suppress all his impulses.
‘Why do I feel that she has gotten addicted to teasing me?’
At Soul Jewelry…
Maisie walked up to the counter, and the receptionist at the front desk smiled at her. “Hello, miss, what kind of jewelry are you looking to purchase?”
She removed her black-framed glasses and smiled. “Is Director Fannon in?” “You’re looking for Director Fannon?”
“Ms. Vanderbilt!?” Another female employee appeared out of nowhere and stared at Maisie in surprise. This female employee happened to be an old employee of Soul Jewelry. “Is it really you? Weren’t you-”
Maisie smiled. “I’m back now. Where’s Uncle Kennedy?”
“Director Fannon is in the office. I’ll take you there!”
The female employee put away all the documents in her hand immediately, turned her head, and whispered to the new employee, “Ms. Vanderbilt is the founder of Soul Jewelry and our boss. You should remember this from now onward.”
She then brought Maisie toward the elevator.
The elevator ascended slowly, and she informed Maisie of all the operations that had taken place in Soul Jewelry over the past three years. And that included the fact that Blackgold had acquired Soul Jewelry and had been managing it under its enterprise after her accident three years ago.
“Blackgold acquired our company?” Maisie looked at her suspiciously.
She then explained. “That’s because many jewelry companies had been keeping an eye on Soul Jewelry ever since news about your accident went public. Mr. Goldmann did not want the brand that you had just created to fall into the hands of others, so he took the lead in acquiring Soul Jewelry and placing it under the Blackgold Group.”
Maisie did not say anything.
‘The accident happened unexpectedly back then, and I didn’t even have the chance to explain everything to Uncle Kennedy before leaving Zlokova. The company’s affairs were something that I didn’t even want to manage at all with the mental state that I was in at the time. Thinking about it now. I might have placed too many burdens onto Uncle Kennedy’s shoulders. He is still managing the company on my behalf.’
The elevator door opened, and Maisie walked toward the office and knocked on the door.
