Aggressive wife novel (Madeline and Noah) novel Chapter 50

Chapter 50

Noah was surprised to learn that Thomas’ most recent location was close to Quinton Corporation. About an hour ago, the boy’s phone connected to the building’s network.

Did Colt intend to go to Quinton Corporation? Was he looking for me because I wasn’t home last night? Noah chastised himself for forgetting to inform Colton that he would not be returning home. After all, the boy was going through an insecure phase. As a result of his negligence, Colton was kidnapped outside the Quincy family’s office building.

Noah seethed inwardly, who has the nerve to kidnap Colt? Next, he instructed, “Wayne, go through all of the surveillance cameras near Quinton Corporation in the last hour. I believe Colt was abducted near the building.”

“Okay, I’m on to it!” Wayne replied. He was appalled that someone dared to kidnap the Qunicy family outside their office building.

Meanwhile, Thomas followed Bruno back home. He shamelessly requested that the servants bring him ice cream and pastries as if he lived in the house.

In contrast to Thomas’ relaxed demeanor, Bruno was pacing the living room, sensing something was wrong. The more he considered the plan, the more unsure he became. Ten million dollars is such a hefty sum. Why would Noah, the most powerful and feared man in Imperia, be willing to surrender so easily?

“Are you sure this will work, Colt? What if Noah discovers that we staged the kidnap? Who’s going to shoulder the blame?” Bruno asked anxiously. He sat beside Thomas and gave the child a worried look.

“Don’t worry. Daddy is rich!” Thomas assured.

“This is no longer about money, Colt. Even though the man who answered the call and arranged for the money is just his subordinate, I’m afraid Noah will learn the truth one day…” Bruno sighed.

“Fret not. You can pretend you invited me to your house to play if he discovers the truth. You’re not going to take money on your own. You can act as if you know nothing about the matter.” Thomas was trying his best to think of a solution for Bruno. Even though he did not fancy the man or his house, he could not deny that the durian crepe made by his servants was delicious.

Thomas thought, Mommy wasn’t lying when she said the only tasty dish she had as a child was the durian crepe! Even though the old man did not reveal his identity, I know who he is. Since the event with Angie’s mother, I’ve been researching the Grant family tree. Hence, I’m aware of the Grant family members and how they look. I recognize the old man the moment I saw him outside Quinton Corporation. It’s my grandfather that I have never seen – Bruno Grant!

“Are you sure this will work?” Bruno asked skeptically.

“It’s too late to regret now that we have informed Daddy of the kidnap. Don’t worry, old man!”

“I guess we have no choice but to continue,” Bruno muttered. He blamed himself for being foolish enough to listen to a child’s instructions.

“You have such a beautiful house, old man. May I explore?” Thomas asked.

“Sure. Please be careful and try not to break anything,” Bruno replied.

“All right!” Thomas said merrily, as he skipped upstairs to start his exploration.

Bruno was not in the mood to deal with Thomas as he sat in the living room, worried that Noah would discover he was the one responsible for the kidnapping.
