CHAPTER 484 THEY’RE HURT, SO WHAT?
"Are you jealous?" Noah quickly caught up, and Noah revealed an annoying smile.
Madeline pushed away Noah's face, and Madeline said seriously, "Yes, I'm jealous. You'd better explain it to me clearly."
Noah stood still on the spot for two seconds. Then, Noah quickly walked up. Noah hugged Madeline, who had turned back to look at him, in one hand. Madeline sat firmly on Noah's arm.
"Don't take me back to the room. I want to visit Mia." Madeline patted Noah's shoulder from above.
Noah quickened his pace, and Noah said, "Don't you want to hear my explanation?"
"Let's hear it later."
"No, I want to talk about it now." Noah carried Madeline into the room. After putting Madeline down, Noah immediately pressed Madeline against the wall, and Noah passionately kissed Madeline.
The more Madeline struggled, the more passionate Noah's kiss became. In the end, Madeline gave up, letting Noah kiss her aggressively. When Noah reached his hand into Madeline's clothes to undress Madeline, Madeline bit Noah's tongue, forcing Noah to retreat.
The married couple leaned against each other, panting. Noah's eyes were glittering like the starry sky, making his dazzling eyes much more enchanting.
"If you try to do this again, keep yourself six feet away from me from now on." Madeline pushed Noah away, and Madeline sat six feet away from Noah.
Noah wanted to approach Madeline. However, seeing Madeline's guarded expression, Noah leaned against the wall, and Noah chuckled softly.
Noah's smile was contagious. As Madeline stared at Noah smiling, Madeline also smiled.
However, Madeline was occupied with other concerns, and Madeline's smile did not last long.
"Say it. We don't have time to waste." Madeline reminded Noah.
Only then did Noah sit beside Madeline on the sofa, and Noah began to explain seriously about the identities of Karen and Sadie.
"Karen, the woman you saw yesterday, is my mom."
Madeline showed a surprised look. Madeline had never heard about Noah's mother.
Noah saw Madeline's expression, and Noah chuckled, "In the past, my mom was a taboo topic in the Quincy family. No one dared to mention her. When I grew up, I sent people to investigate it, and I found out that my mom is still alive."
Madeline felt the pressure Noah exuded, and Madeline leaned toward Noah, signaling Noah to continue.
Noah adjusted his emotion, and Noah continued with an impartial tone, "When my dad was 17 years old, my grandpa found my dad a tutor. The tutor was five years older than my dad, and she was about to graduate from college. Although she came from a low-income family, she was beautiful, and she had ambitions to climb the social ladder."
Upon hearing this, Madeline had a wild guess, and Madeline understood why Noah hated her five years ago.
"She used every trick she could muster to seduce my dad, but she couldn't win my dad over. That was because my dad already had someone in his heart at that time, someone he cherished and protected dearly. My dad had planned to confess his feelings to that girl after the college entrance examination.
At this point, Noah looked down at Madeline, and Noam seemingly hesitated whether to continue speaking.
Madeline pretended she did not mind as Madeline played around Noah's fingers, "Back then, I didn't intend to plot against you. I fell for Angie's trickery, and I'm not like Angie."
"Angie is not worthy of being compared to you." Noah continued the previous topic when Noah noticed that Madeline had no resentment.
"Later on, Karen drugged my dad, and Karen deliberately made his sweetheart witness them being together. My dad's sweetheart also had feelings for him. However, she was so upset that she ran out and got into a car accident. Then, she passed away. When my dad woke up, Karen pretended that my dad had forced himself on Karen while drunk."
Madeline noticed Noah's disgust toward Karen despite Noah's plain tone. However, if Noah hated Karen so much, why did Noah bring Karen back to the country and even bring Karen to the Quincy residence?
"Later, my dad found out that his sweetheart had passed away, and my dad was heartbroken. When Karen claimed to be pregnant and demanded my dad take responsibility, my dad was like a walking corpse when my grandpa arranged the marriage."
"Then, my dad found out that Karen was not pregnant, and my dad wanted to divorce Karen. However, Karen locked my dad in the room, and Karen drugged my dad repeatedly until my dad had a mental breakdown. Later, I came into this world. On the day of my birth, my dad jumped off the building, and my dad committed suicide."
Madeline hugged Noah's waist tenderly. No wonder everyone in Imperia only knew that the Quincy family was rich and powerful, that Mr. Gordon was strict and decisive, and that Mr. Lucas was firm and determined, but no one had mentioned what Mr. Noah of the Quincy family was like.
How desperate must the young man have felt, having to live a nightmarish life at 17?
"My grandpa spared Karen's life because of me. He sent Karen to Uranica, abandoning Karen to her own device."
"Back then, my grandpa did not force you to marry me. You have voluntarily married me to torture me and seek revenge for your father?" Madeline asked.
Noah shook his head, and Noah sighed, "That was my intention at the start. However, the more I got to know you, the more I realized that you were different from Karen. Later, when we had Colton, I realized that I was willing to marry you because I was afraid you might be pregnant with my child. That child could be like me, and he would be unwelcome into this world."
"How can that be? Your grandpa loves you the most." Madeline gently patted Noah's back to comfort Noah.
Noah gazed gloomily out the window, "My dad was my grandpa's only son. My grandpa had high hopes for my dad, and my grandpa had loved my dad dearly since childhood. If it weren't for Karen, my dad would be much more accomplished than me."
"The past is the past. You're innocent."
"Some people are born with sins."
"I know the Mr. Quincy I met would not wallow in self-pity like this. Are you intentionally acting weak to get my sympathy?" Madeline looked up, and Madeline stared into Noah's eyes.
Before Noah could respond, Madeline snuggled into Noah's embrace, and Madeline lightly pecked Noah's lips, "You have succeeded. I'm so worried about you now."
"How worried are you? You can't comfort me with only that." Noah pointed at his lips, and Noah smiled.
Madeline looked into her hands, and Madeline whispered into Noah's ears. Noah's gloomy eyes lit up, "Really?"
Madeline blushed as she nodded, "It isn't a big deal. Why would I lie to you?"
"Since it's not a big deal, how about now…" Noah spoke as Noah was about to embrace Madeline's waist.
Madeline hurriedly avoided Noah, "There are many injured people at home now. Is it alright?"
"They're hurt, so what?" Noah voiced out. You're the only person in my eyes. As long as you're not injured or sick, and as long as you have consented, I can do it without any mental burden.
