There wasn't much time left.

The door slammed shut, and the black car drove away, disappearing into the dark night. Maisie stood on the spot. When she lowered her head, the tears that had blurred out her vision fell to her shoes and splattered like a blooming flower.

Ryleigh ran to her and held her shoulders. "Maisie, why wouldn't you let go when he's already-"

"You wouldn't understand." Maisie cut her off, the lights casting a long shadow and displaying her sad silhouette. After a long time, she said in a low voice," Send me back to Vanderbilt manor, please." She never looked up.

Helios stared at her for a while and said, "I'll go get the Vanderbili manor.

n car. Maisie was quiet all the way back. She took her phone, thanked Helios, and got out of the car without looking back when they arrived at the

Helios watched her walk to the door. He was in deep thought while frowning. He then picked up his phone and sent a message.

In the meantime, at the Goldmann mansion..

Nolan walked into the room and immediately spat

some blood out of his mouth. He supported himself on the railings of the stairs and coughed. He clung onto the railing with so much effort that the veins on the back of his hand showed up. I'm sorry, Zee

His eyes turned red. The devastation made him cough a few violent coughs.

Alfred was shocked when he turned on the lights and walked down the stairs.

Quincy brought a doctor over to the mansion in a hurry. The doctor walked into the room while Quincy and Alfred stood outside.

"Did he go outside?" Quincy frowned, seeing Nolan's condition. They still couldn't let people know that he had contracted the virus because it would cause panic.

The doctor said that he was in the stage after the incubation period, and he would have a fever for at least a few days.

Medication to relieve fever and flu didn't help. All he could do was to ride it out. Alfred nodded. "Yes, he went out and got worse when he came back."

He looked into the room anxiously, "Has he contracted some disease?"

Quincy wasn't sure if he should answer that. It was actually a disease. 1

He looked at Nolan, who was lying in bed and getting looked at by the doctor, guessing that he had probably gone to see Maisie.

His phone broke his chain of thought. He saw that Titus was calling and immediately went aside to answer it.

"My flight will land in the morning. How is Nolan?"

Quincy hesitated upon hearing that Titus was rushing back. "Not 100 good."

There was silence on the other end of the phone. After a long time, "Take care of him. We'll talk more when I'm back."

Maisie couldn't sleep all night.

When she went down for breakfast in the morning, she looked pale and tired. The bags under her eyes were very obvious, while she looked depressed and heartbroken. "Zee, you should take a break and go on a trip if you can't take it." Stephen brought her a bowl of soup." You can't keep doing this. You're going to fall sick."

Maisie just nodded. She took a few sips of the soup but didn't feel hungry. She had lost her appetite recently.

She looked up, "I'll get someone to bring the kids home for the next few days." She smiled with much effort. "I

don't want them to see me like this."

Stephen agreed.

She sent a message to Kennedy to inform him that she wouldn't be going to the office for the next few days.

She went to the cafe that Ryleigh was working at.

Ryleigh made her a cup of coffee and sat in the seat across from her. "If you're going on a trip, bring me along. I can be your company."
