Aggressive wife novel (Madeline and Noah) novel Chapter 39

Chapter 39

Madeline only woke up briefly in the hospital due to the anesthetic’s effect and then fell asleep again.

She wanted to be discharged from the hospital as soon as she woke up, but Andy dissuaded her and insisted that she stay for a 24-hour postoperative observation period.

Madeline could only concur because she also desired a speedy recovery.

Although Andy and Albert wanted to accompany her and care for her, their offer was declined to prevent someone from investigating the people around her.

It’s only one night in the hospital. It’s not hard at all!

It had been a long night of tossing and turning, and she was exhausted.

It was just that, despite having borrowed the effect of anesthetics, Madeline didn’t sleep well.

Dreams wrapped themselves around her layer by layer, leaving her disoriented and dazed, until she lost herself and became trapped in that sad parting.

She was trapped on that rainy day when Noah was determined to wrong her and abandon her.

In her dream, she could still feel the pain in her stomach, which was so severe that she couldn’t breathe…

The sensation of suffocation became increasingly intense, and Madeline awoke from her suffocation to find someone smothering her with a pillow.

She couldn’t breathe because someone was murdering her!

Her body’s instantaneous warning of danger caused her to awaken. After struggling to locate the fruit knife she had hidden under the blanket, she quickly stabbed the assailant.

Even though she had missed, Madeline had time to catch her breath, and while the opponent was ducking and flinching, she managed to sit up and quickly turn on the light.

She could see the assailant was a man, but he was wearing a mask and a peaked cap, so she couldn’t see his face.

Wait a minute… That outfit…

It was the same person who had previously tampered with her car!!

The man took out a dagger and charged at Madeline as she was thinking.

Every move was lethal.

Madeline had some skills as well, but one arm was injured and combined with her poor physical condition, she wouldn’t be able to keep him at bay for long.

As soon as the man realized Madeline couldn’t fight him off, he became a little enthused, and the attack intensified as if he wanted to end her life sooner.

Madeline no longer had the strength to go on the offensive. She could only be on the defensive, and it was becoming increasingly difficult for her to do so.

With a loud smack, the fruit knife in her hand fell to the ground.

The assailant then kicked her in the stomach, and Madeline fell directly to the opposite wall, pulling the wound on her arm and causing her to break out in a cold sweat.

Taking advantage of her falling to the ground, the man charged forward with the dagger. Madeline wanted to get up, but she didn’t have the strength, and she felt a pang of despair in her heart.

Just as she thought she was about to face death again, the man in front of her was grabbed by the collar, lifted, and thrown backward.

The man flipped over in midair and landed solidly on the ground.

His abilities aren’t all that bad. He doesn’t appear to be your average assassin.

Madeline was saved, and she saw the person who had the timely appearance. It was Noah.

“Noah?”

“Ms. Grant certainly has a lot of enemies!”

Noah sighed ruefully, his tone sarcastic.

The assailant didn’t want to give up and fought Noah again. When he noticed the Quincy family’s bodyguards approaching, he retreated hastily.

Noah directed Wayne to pursue him, and he turned around and returned to the ward, where he lifted Madeline, who had fallen to the ground.
