Abusive Wife

Chapter 91

Even though Noah’s voice was soft, his gaze was filled with hostility.

There was a hint of gentleness in his eyes when he looked at Madeline.

The proprietor of the auction house did not waste any time. He took the jade necklace and ran up to Madeline.

“Ms. Grant, Mr. Quincy bought this necklace for you. He hopes you will like it.”

The proprietor looked at Madeline with a smiling face and behaved obsequiously as though she was already married to Noah.

Madeline turned to talk to Albert. “If Mr. Quincy has already bought the necklace, you should take it. Thank him for me for contributing to charity.”

She stood up and left the scene amid the envious gazes of the socialites of Imperia.

“Why does Mr. Quincy care about Madeline so much? She’s so lucky!”

“What’s so good about her anyway? She’s rude and arrogant. There’s no femininity in her at all!”

“Yeah, isn’t that so? Even I’m so much gentler than her!”

The socialites were gossiping behind Madeline’s back. Every one of them was envious and resentful.

Noah was not angry to hear that. Instead, he smiled.

He wanted to give back to Madeline

everything he owed her.

Madeline would become the most popular woman in Imperia, and all the socialites would envy her. Even so, she would live without a care…

Half an hour later, Madeline returned to Maple Forest Villa.

“Ms. Grant, what do you want to do with this necklace? Should I put it in the vault?”

“Nah. Do whatever you want with it.”

Madeline cast a nonchalant glance at the returned necklace in Albert’s palm. There was no emotion in her eyes.
