Abusive Wife Novel

Chapter 196

Madeline navigated through the crowd with her phone in hand. However, it felt as though she had not moved from her location. She was not getting any closer to Noah.

While feeling frustrated, she bumped into a wall of muscles.

With her hand over her sore forehead, Madeline picked her head up.

She was dumbstruck.

It was Joseph.

He wore a casual white blazer paired with a deep V-neck silk shirt.

The combination of sultry and grace came together nicely with Joseph.

Madeline believed the guy made quite the eye candy so long as he did not speak.

Alas, the hottie would have been a total package if it were not for his snide remarks.

“Fancy running into you here, Maddie. You’re all dressed up. Are you here to see me?”

“You must be dreaming.” Madeline offhandedly commented. She then walked past him.

Joseph reached out and grabbed her by the arm as she brushed past him.

“Maddie, don’t be in a hurry to leave. I know you’re here for Noah. Why don’t I take you to him?”

With Madeline putting up a fight, Joseph patiently cut the distance between them and whispered in her ear.

Madeline was confused that he saw through her intentions.

“Oh? I didn’t know that you have the habit of keeping tabs on others, Jo.”

“Likewise, Maddie.”

“Why do you know Noah is here? Did you invite him here?”

It suddenly came to Madeline as she was staring at Joseph.

There was someone Joseph had to see even when his house was on fire. it made sense if the person was Noah.

“Do you know, Maddie? I love that you catch on quickly. Come on. I’ll take you to him.” Joseph took Maddie’s hand to move along, but the latter shook his arm away.
