Chapter 178
At this moment, in Noah’s bedroom.
Noah turned off his mobile phone when he found Madeline hugging the pillow and leaning toward him. He held his breath nervously.
“Madeline?” Noah called softly, but Madeline did not respond to him. She habitually put her pillow on his bed, lifted the quilt, and got into the bed.
Noah subconsciously wanted to lean aside to give Madeline some space. However, before he had time to move, he was wrapped around by her slender arms. Immediately afterward, Madeline got into his arms and fell asleep naively after picking a comfortable position. Noah felt panic when he felt her warmth and breath, especially when he smelled the fragrance of her body. But now, Madeline had slept deeply. He had no choice but to bear himself and do nothing.
Noah felt uncomfortable and hoped to punch the wall to calm himself down. Just when he was trying to control himself, Madeline stretched out one leg and habitually put her leg on his waist. She also tightened her arms and made herself closer to him. Noah felt that Madeline had messed up his thoughts.
Damn it! You must have hugged me on purpose! Noah leaned in to kiss her forehead. Then, he tried to distance himself from Madeline as much as possible.
However, Madeline seemed to feel Noah was getting further away from her. She immediately pouted and frowned. She groped around with her injured hand to hug Noah again, but she accidentally touched his wound.
“Ouch!” Noah was in pain, but he tried his best to endure the pain without making a sound. Seeing that her little hands were still groping around, he simply leaned over and let her hug him tightly.
After a while, Noah found Madeline relaxed when she got to hug him again. He sighed helplessly and subconsciously hugged her in his arms.
“I’m here. Just sleep well.”
Madeline was his wife. What Noah could do was love and tolerate her.
…
The Grant’s apartment.
Since Bruno exposed his true character during the live broadcast, Orange Entertainment canceled his subsequent live broadcast announcements. Bruno felt he was about to be blown up as he failed to earn money. Since yesterday, he had been calling the people from Orange Entertainment, but they had blocked his calls.
“Those bastards! They gave up on me!” Bruno scolded anxiously. As he did not sleep all night, his eyes swelled up. He seemed to lose all energy all of a sudden.
“Sir, don’t worry. Orange Entertainment isn’t the best media company. We can find another media company. We will find a way out!” Kingsley came to send Bruno’s meal early in the morning. When he saw the messy apartment, he could not help persuading Bruno.
“It’s over! It’s all Suzette’s fault! How dare she go to kill Madeline at this time!”
Bruno was puzzled by Suzette’s behavior. Even since last night, he thought about whether he was wrong to marry such a woman.
Suzette was good-looking back then. However, she did not give birth to a son after marrying him, and now she even cheated on him! If he had known her true character earlier, he would not have given up on Eliza Harvey because of Suzette’s temptation.
“Sir, about Madam, I have something to report to you.”
“What’s the matter? Don’t expect me to bail her out! I have no money!” Seeing Kingsley mentioning Suzette, Bruno instantly made it clear that he would not help her.
That bitch has made me lose the money. She should suffer such torment!
“S-sir, when I went to the police station this morning, I found someone bailed Madam out.”
“What?! Who bailed her out? When was she bailed out?” Bruno asked one after another. He was getting angry.
