Aggressive Wife

Chapter 103

Madeline woke up in the morning and found Noah missing.

There was breakfast and a sticky note on the dining table.

The note said, “Thank you for your care, Ms. Madeline. I am busy, so I will be leaving. I’ll leave Colt in Ms. Madeline’s care.” There was a smiley face at the end of the note.

Madeline grinned when she was reading the words on the sticky note.

For some reason, she had been living the life of her dreams recently. She was happy yet sad at the same time and did not know what to do.

Noah should be a kind and gentle husband if he married the woman he loved. However, Madeline lamented she was the one whom Noah married. That was why she did not get to see the gentle side of him. Madeline could not remember why Noah hated her back then.

“Mommy, did you make this breakfast? It smells so good!” The first thing Thomas cared about every morning was whether his mother was in good spirits. He ran out of his room with messy hair.

He was relieved to see Madeline in a good mood, so he started to ask about breakfast.

“Your Daddy made this. Do you want to wash up and eat it with me?”

“Did Scumbag make this? Was he here again last night?” Thomas was unhappy. He was asleep, but he knew what happened. He wondered if Noah bullied his mother again.

“Yes. He was asking for my help to change his wound’s dressing. Although I don’t like him, I couldn’t ignore him, so I helped him.” Madeline said as she carried Thomas to the washroom.

“He was here to change the dressing on his wound? Fine. I will let it go this time.” Thomas felt a little guilty after remembering how he accidentally touched Noah’s wound last time. Thomas was a little worried about him. He wondered if Noah’s wound had recovered after two days.

When he was hesitating whether to send a message to Noah to ask him about inheriting his assets, Noah sent a text to him.

Thomas was shocked. He thought Noah could read his mind.

Noah wrote in the text, “Colt, are you awake? I picked a private tutor for you. Mr. Charles will bring him over to teach you later.”

“What? Do I have to study?” Thomas already studied every preschool syllabus abroad. He didn’t want to waste his time studying.

“You can go to kindergarten.”

“No! I want to stay with Aunt Madeline!”

“You can get Aunt Madeline to send you to kindergarten.”

Thomas decided not to reply to Noah anymore. He blueticked him.

Over at the Quincy Corporation’s President’s office, Noah thought Thomas wanted to go to kindergarten instead. So, he asked Wayne to prepare materials for international kindergartens in Imperia for him. He would take it back to Maple Forest Villa at night, so he could pick one with Madeline.

Thinking about how both of them would send their child to school while holding each other’s hands made him feel happy.

Colt did not speak much in the past, so Noah got private tutors to teach him at home. Now, Colt was an active and cute child. It was not a bad idea to send him to kindergarten to interact with more children.

Noah could not help but smile when he thought about his son’s future plans. He looked like he was in a good mood.

Wayne stood beside him. He wanted to say something but didn’t.

“If you have something to say, just say it.”

“Sir, have you really fallen in love with Ms. Madeline?”

“Well, perhaps. Do you have something to say about that?”

Wayne sensed Noah’s glare and quickly shook his head.

He dared not say anything. Ms. Madeline might be his future boss, so he kept quiet.

“Not at all. It’s just that Ms. Madeline has too many secrets. Sir, should we run an investigation…”

“No need. Things that happened in the past are no longer important. The only thing that’s important is the fact that she is Madeline Grant.”

“Sir…”

“Enough.”

“Yes!”

“I heard Madeline caught the assassin that made multiple attempts to kill her.”

“Yes. It was a few days ago on the day you were injured. After we left, Ms. Madeline set up a trap and caught that person.”

That was the reason why Wayne was worried.

Someone who made multiple attempts to kill Madeline and even hurt Noah wouldn’t be your average Joe. However, Madeline caught him successfully. Wayne was wondering if she had someone powerful by her side and whether she was a friend or a foe.

“Did you find anything?” Noah asked with a gloomy look.

“There isn’t much progress now. I only know he worked for Lone Wolf.”

“Where is he now?”

“A warehouse in the Western Suburbs.”

“Let’s go take a look.” Noah was interested. He stood up and walked out of the office.

Wayne took Noah’s coat with him and followed behind him.

Half an hour later, Noah brought his men to the Western Suburbs warehouse.

When he got out of his car, he frowned slightly because he heard someone fighting inside.

Noah wanted to rush inside. However, Wayne mustered up the courage to stop him.

“Sir, you are injured. Let me go inside with a few men.”

Noah hesitated for a second. Then, he heard a woman who sounded like Madeline. He pushed Wayne away and rushed inside.

Meanwhile, inside the warehouse, the assassin who escaped was fighting Albert. The sly assassin had surprised them by breaking free.

“Madeline, look out!”

Noah saw the man rushing towards Madeline. He took Wayne’s crossbow and shot at the man’s arm.

The man was forced to take a step back, but he kicked Madeline in her chest. She fell towards the wall behind her and passed out.

Noah caught her immediately. He was relieved when he was sure that Madeline only passed out. He gave her to Albert, so Albert could take her away.

“Take good care of her. Dylan will be here soon.”

“Thank you, Mr. Quincy. That man is very sly. Be careful.”

Noah nodded and returned to the warehouse.

The bodyguards of the Quincy family surrounded the man. When the assassin tried to fight back, they shot him with their crossbows. The man was crippled when all his limbs were shot. However, none of the shots hit his body.

Noah walked towards the man and ripped off his mask. He saw the killer’s face.

“LF, it’s been a long time.”
