Aggressive wife novel (Madeline and Noah) novel Chapter 8

Chapter 8 There’s Trouble, Mommy

Madeline smiled to herself as she looked at the photo from Thomas. I have done a good job raising him. He misses me when we are apart.

Madeline knew that Noah would send someone to do a background check on her. Hence, she spent much effort ensuring that the hackers would not be able to search for any information about her. In addition, Madeline made sure to get rid of any evidence that would suggest she had been to Quincy residence. This included the trails that were left behind by the helicopter.

After much thought, Madeline conceded and allowed Thomas to stay at the Quincy residence. It was an opportunity for the boy to experience fatherly love, which he had lacked since he was a child. At the same time, she wanted Noah to suffer from having to deal with a mischievous child.

Madeline texted, don’t worry, he won’t be able to find out who I am. Take care of yourself. I’ll come to fetch you in a few days.

Once she was done replying to Thomas, she went to check on Colton. Even though the boy’s life was no longer in danger, he required a lengthy recovery time. Madeline began to worry when she saw that he was still in a coma since the surgery yesterday. She remained by his bedside so that the boy would not be afraid when he awoke alone in an unfamiliar environment.

Madeline felt a wave of sadness when she thought of the sufferings that Colton had to endure all these years. She thought, I should have been back earlier! Noah hates me so much. He’ll never treat my child kindly. The crushing guilt left the woman feeling breathless.

Madeline’s thoughts were interrupted when the phone rang, and she exited the ward to answer it.

“Angie has made over a hundred phone calls to us, Ms. Grant. She wishes to see the members of the charity committee,” Albert reported.

“Wow, she’s in such a hurry,” Madeline scoffed.

“Of course! Angie spent nearly two hundred thousand dollars yesterday to remove the trending topics on social media. She’s desperate to get the committee members to clarify on her behalf,” Albert explained.

“Our men spent so much effort to broadcast her news on social media. It’ll be a waste of their efforts if she’s able to take them down with a mere two hundred thousand dollars. Order our people to comment actively on social media. I want it to remain a trending topic. Tell Angie that the Chairman of the charity committee would not agree to meet her unless her rumors are no longer trending on social media,” Madeline instructed.

“I’m on it!” Albert nodded before hanging up the call. He quickly ordered his people to continue posting on social media.

Madeline discovered Thomas had sent a new text message after she had hung up the phone. She leaned against the wall and read the message, oh no, Mommy! This is an emergency! Hurry, find a place to hide! The scumbag is using me as an excuse to condemn you. He’s heading to the hospital now!

Appalled by the news, Madeline immediately planned to make her escape. However, the moment she turned, she bumped into a grumpy man. Alas, it was Noah!

The man was dressed in a well-tailored black suit, looking clean-cut and polished. Standing two steps away from Madeline, his eyes blazed with anger as he scrutinized the woman. Finally, he said in a threatening tone, “Madeline Grant!”

A lump formed in her throat when she realized that Noah had managed to find out her name. He was indeed the most powerful man in Imperia, and nothing could escape his clutches.
