Abusive Wife

Chapter 154

Elise felt as if Madeline had given her a physical slap with her words.

“You girls keep chatting, I’m going to look for Dylan. I’ll come visit you again at night,” Noah said as he noticed his cue to leave. He was secretly pleased to find out that Madeline had been vying for his concern, as revealed by Elise just moments ago.

Of course, his self-satisfied smirk did not go unnoticed by Madeline. She knew the douchebag was probably having some delusional, narcissistic thought about himself once again. Then again, there was no harm in letting him know how she felt. She had once loved him so much that it ended up costing a life. It was only natural that she had her guards up now, she told herself.

Wayne quickly approached Noah as soon as he saw his boss leaving Madeline’s room. “Sir, you guessed right. There was indeed a secret path at the bottom of the mountain lake. Lone Wolf must have used that path to escape!” he informed Noah.

“Get the special forces to search the city thoroughly. I want him alive,” Noah instructed.

“Yes, Sir. I’ll get on it! But Sir, didn’t you say that the Lone Wolf will come for us himself if he was still alive? Why do we have to search him out?” Wayne asked out of curiosity. After all, the Quincy’s special forces was a secret operation. The Quincys never mobilized them unless it was absolutely necessary. For Noah to request their services, something big must have happened.

“He has something I need. Just do as I

say,” Noah responded curtly. Noticing Noah’s solemn expression, Wayne did not dare to poke any further. He quickly left to carry out Noah’s orders.

Once Wayne had left, Noah took the elevator up to the top floor, where the hospital’s director’s office was situated. This hospital was a branch of the Imperia Community Hospital. It was a public medical research hospital but privately funded by affluent benefactors. Most of the patients who came here were either from wealthy families or had a complicated disease. Apart from the director’s office and a resting lounge, the rest of the top floor was occupied by sophisticated medical labs almost like the one that Dylan Felch ran.
