The Three Little Guardian Angels novel Chapter 379

Chapter 379

“You were right.” Nolan calmly said, “Our investigation wasn’t thorough enough. I think the person he was protecting was also involved in this.”

When he said that, Quincy seemed to have remembered something. “Yes, I noticed that money was deposited into his account every few months.”

Nolan raised his brows, “Look into it.”

When they left the hospital, Maisie got Nolan to send her to Vaenna

The car parked at the main doors, and when she was about to get off, Nolan tugged at her wrist and stared straight at her. “Are you really going to move here?”

They looked at each other for a couple of seconds, and she blinked. “I can’t be running around.” She scoffed. “I can’t work as two people. It’s very tiring.”

Upon making sure that her move was because of work, Nolan let her go. “Alright, I’ll pick you up at night.”

“Alright.” Maisie got out of the car.

When she walked into the office, she saw Ryleigh waiting for her while having a snack. Her office was filled with the smell of the food, and she was enjoying it.

When she saw Maisie, Ryleigh pretended to be angry. “Maisie, how could you move without telling me? I spent so much money for a cab to see you at Blackgold.”

Maisie saw that she had a few bags by her side and smiled, “What is this?”

Ryleigh helplessly hummed. “I went home and was kicked out because I had a fight with my dad. He even took my cards. I only have a few dollars left. It’s hot outside, and I have nowhere to go, so I came here for the air conditioning,”

“Ms. Hill, didn’t I let you live at my old place?” Maisie cut her off with her arms crossed.

 

Ryleigh awkwardly said, “I-I didn’t have money to pay the bills, and the water has been cut off for a while already.” 1

Maisie walked to the couch and sat down. “Tell me why your dad kicked you out this time.”

Ryleigh finished all her food and answered, “I don’t know what Madam Lucas and my dad are on. They asked me to marry into the Lucas family, and even my aunt has agreed to it. I was the last to know.

“If I didn’t fight back and wasn’t kicked out, we’d be related in the future. I’m not taking advantage of you.”

Ryleigh lay on the couch and seemed to have had a glimpse into the meaning of life. “What do you think I’ve done to deserve this? I f I were to marry Louis, I’d probably die a lot earlier.”

Maisie just smiled upon hearing her complaint. “Louis is actually quite good-looking.”

Louis was her cousin and Colton’s teacher in school. Many women would want to marry him because he was the grandson of Hernandez de Armas and for his looks and talent.

Building a connection through marriage was a very common thing among the affluent, and the Hills, Lucases, and Boucher had always been connected, so it was just a matter of time for Mrs. Lucas to think about Ryleigh. There would be fewer concerns if they knew who they were getting married with.

Ryleigh sat up and asked helplessly, “What is good about him? Do you know how he teases me? My life would be joyless if I married a man like that. If there’s no joy, I will just die of anger.”

Maisie laughed. “There’s always the enemies to lovers trope.”

Ryleigh took out her phone. “I think it’s time to put our friendship on the blacklist.”
