Chapter 988 Time Will Tell
Maisie obviously supported that, but Nancy shook her head, "I'm afraid ..."
She had not been in love for many years. In such an age, she didn't know whether she could rekindle
the desire for love. In fact, she was somewhat in a bad mood. She didn't expect he would wait for her
for so many years and he would be so single-minded.
Seeing Nancy's distress, Maisie simply got off the subject. "Time will tell everything. If you think he's not
bad, you can consider him as an old friend, and get to know more about him first."
"Right." Maisie's words relieved Nancy.
He was such a fanatical admirer. And every time talking on the phone he said affectionate words. The
strong affection in his eyes today made her confounded.
She wanted to refuse him directly. However, every time she saw that deep and intense eyes, she
couldn't say those tough words. But she didn't want to be in a relationship now. This really distressed
her.
Actually, she did not hate him at all. He was handsome since his youth. He was in the fine arts
department and had artistic temperament.
Today they met again. Although time had left traces on his face, his vibe and figure was still
outstanding among middle-aged, elegant, mature and charming.
Her distress came from many aspects, including the fear of being hurt.
And she was not that kind of person that could fall in love with somebody she didn't know well or
hadn't seen for a long time. She needed to get to know him before opening her heart.
Maisie didn't discuss this with Nancy later but ate some fruits with her and the two talked about
something else. When she left from Nancy's room, Ezra was already got Ezio to sleep upstairs.
Ezra now was very good at taking care of the baby. It was nothing difficult for Ezra to give him a bath,
brew milk powder, sing him to sleep or play with him.
Maisie told Ezra the reason for Nancy's distress, and Ezra immediately got serious, "I'll get someone to
check him out right now."
"OK." Maisie told Ezra the man's name that she heard from Nancy. His name was Noel Atkinson. Ezra
immediately asked someone to check him out.
Ezra did not have a good impression of this man because he cared too much about Nancy and he was
afraid that Nancy would be cheated or hurt.
Ezra also knew that over the years there were many men went after his mother, but she was never
moved. At the beginning, he thought it was because he was still too young, and she was afraid that he
would suffer wrong if she found a partner. And then she was older, she had less desire.
But Ezra was keenly aware of that this man was different from those men before, or his mother would
not be so distressed.
Ezra did know that there was a special man in her mother's heart in the past, but he never checked
him. Ezra thought that after so many years, he must have a family and children, so there was no need
to do so.
He never thought the man would be in such a situation ....
Ezra soon received his information. What the man had told Nancy was completely true: he had been
married but his ex-wife passed away in a few years; no children; a quite famous painter.
Ezra and Maisie were not engaged in the art and art-related industries, so the two have not heard of
Noel before. Only after careful inquiry this time did they get to know him.
What was sent to Ezra together with this information was a photo of Noel's.
Maisie smiled as soon as she saw the photo, "I can understand why your mom is distressed now. This
is indeed an impressive and unforgettable face."
The man in the photo was middle-aged, but he was still handsome and lean. Perhaps because he had
been engaged in the art-related industry, his temperament was remarkable.
He was reckoned to be at least fifty years old this year, but there was not much sign of age could be
seen on his face. He was the kind of uncle that attractive to young girls. Of course, Nancy was also
well-preserved and shapely.
Maisie thought from the appearance, thought the two were well-matched.
However, Ezra didn't glad to hear that and asked her, "Hum. What do you mean by that? You think he's
good-looking, right?"
What did she mean by an impressive and unforgettable face?
She thought he was handsome? Ezra thought.
Maisie absolutely felt the jealousy from his words and was speechless. He was almost jealous of
everything. She just honestly praised this Mr. Atkinson a few words.
She just winded him up. "Mr. Atkinson is good-looking and charming. That's truth. He must be an
awesome guy when he was young, don't you think so?"
Ezra was so angry that he gritted his teeth, "Superficial!"
"You just like pretty face! All women do!" He didn't feel relieved after he added. He didn't realize that "all
women" included his mother.
Maisie retorted calmly, "No, I don't."
He really did not know how to respond. If he showed his anger, it meant admitting that he was not
handsome; if he didn't, he would lose face because he just said she liked pretty face. Anyway, he was
choked and could not keep on being jealous.
Maisie also stop being against him on this topic. She softly said, "Since this Mr. Atkinson has a good
reputation, and he's attractive. I think if he is sincere enough to your mom. I support them to be
together."
"In love, sincerity is the greatest weapon." Maisie added.
The information that Ezra got was definitely accurate. In the circle of fine art, Noel was noble and
unsullied. He never pursued snobbery or followed the crowd and tends, which was probably the reason
why he was very talented but had not been a big hit.
His integrity could only make him a famous painter, but not a popular master of painting.
Since there was no problem with his personality, it depended on whether he treated Nancy with a
sincere heart.
For Maisie, who had experienced love and hatred, she particularly valued the sincerity.
It was Ezra's sincerity that finally moved her. So she also hoped to see Noel's sincerity to Nancy.
Indeed, only time could test it out.
The feeling of being a gatekeeper for mother may be the same as being a gatekeeper for daughter.
Ezra felt that no man was worthy of them. He could not help disliking those guys.
"Alas." Thinking about this, he could not help but sigh bitterly.
His mother was sophisticated and had seen all sorts of people. She could tell a good guy or bad guy.
But if he would have a daughter, and she would fall in love with someone and get married, would she
be hurt by men? If so, what should he do? NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
Ezra thought he must stop think about this. It was driving him crazy.
