Chapter 1313
‘Even if she’s investigated Mrs. Goldmann before this, it’s impossible for her to know
everything down to the very details as if she’s very close to Mrs.
Goldmann. Besides, if Maxine wants to avenge Sue Reynolds, the person that she
should hate should be Rowena because Rowena was the one who killed Sue. So, why
would she make Mrs. Goldmann her primary target instead?’
Nolan stopped in front of the elevator, fastened his buttons while listening to Quincy’s
mumbling, and turned to look at him. “This isn’t an act of revenge.”
The elevator’s doors opened at this moment. Quincy followed Nolan in and pressed the
floor button. He could not help but wonder, “what is it if it’s not for revenge? She’s
doing so just for fun?”
Nolan laughed. “ If what you want is revenge, will you end the other party directly?”
Quincy paused for a bit. “That’s for sure. However, what I do must be permitted by
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtlaw.”
“That’s it.” Nolan’s expression looked meaningful and profound. “If all she wanted were to take revenge, she
would’ve killed Zee directly, but all she’s done so far is either hire someone else to harm Zee or lay her fingers on
the people around Zee. Thus, rather than looking at this and saying that it’s an act of revenge, it looks more like
she’s playing with her prey.
“It’s just like when a cat is hunting its prey. It usually doesn’t swallow it in one bite. It will wait for its prey to slowly
lose its ability to fight back while playing with it. That’s when the cat will treat its prey as food.”
Quincy was stunned, thinking that it was indeed very suspicious.
‘If her target had always been Mrs. Goldmann, she would have a better chance at it if she joined Soul rather than
Blackgold, but she chose to join Blackgold instead.
‘If Linda was killed because she wanted to cover up her identity, why would she take advantage of Mr.
Hannigan’s feelings for Pearl. And if she wanted to kill Mrs. Goldmann, she wouldn’t have only punctured her tire.
‘If it’s said that people who want revenge are extremely scary, then what level is Cecile at?’
Back in the car, Nolan instructed Quincy, “Get someone to look into the relationship between Sue and Maxine when
they were both living in Stoslo and Maxine’s traces over the years. Also, get someone to ask Mr. Kestner about her.
He should know her the best.”
At the Goldmann mansion...
Maisie walked into the study and saw Alfred sorting out the books on the bookshelf. Thus, she asked, “ Why are you
suddenly sorting out the books?”
Alfred glanced back at her and responded with a smile. “Mr. Goldmann Sr. said that there are too many items on
display on the bookshelf, so it’s time to sort it out. Many of the books displayed here are books from the past, and
we don’t even have enough boxes to store them now. After all, bookshelves have to be freed up from time to time
to make space for some new books. Maybe the young lady and young masters will need some space on the shelf in
the future.”
Maisie’s gaze stopped on the back of a photo frame placed on the top of one of the boxes. She picked up the photo
frame and turned it over. It was a photo from the old days. In the group photo, the young man sitting in the middle
had the facial features of a mixed -race man, and she recognized him almost instantly. “Is this Grandfather when
he was young?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlfred glanced at the photo frame in her hand, stopped what he was doing, and
answered, “Yes, it’s a photo of Elder Master Goldmann and the Summers.”
Maisie was startled. “The Summers... As in Rowena’s grandparents?”
Alfred nodded. He claimed that besides Rowena’s grandparents, the other boy standing
right beside Titus was Rowena’s father, Tyson Summers, and the young girl in the upper
left corner, who was standing next to the matriarch of the Summers back then was
Tyson’s fiancee, Lorraine Wolfsbane.
Maisie looked at everyone in the old photo. Although the photo was yellowish and
blurry, the facial features of the people could still be seen, and Lorraine looked
somewhat similar to Rowena.
Maisie smiled. “Mr. Summers and Mrs. Summers had been arranged to marry each
other since they were babies, so their relationship must be close, right?”
‘If I was not mistaken, Rowena’s full name is Rowena Wolfsbane Summers. Her parents
named her after both their last names, so it seems that the relationship between her
parents was rather good.’
Unexpectedly, Alfred sighed at that moment. “Their relationship might seem close, but
in reality, Mr. Summers didn’t like his fiancee at all.”
