Abusive Wife

Chapter 247

“I know that I have no right to ask you about what happened in the last five years, but I can’t stop my thoughts from running wild. I can’t stop myself from being jealous. Madeline, I am afraid that I will lose you.” 

Noah’s intense gaze was fixed on Madeline, and he was looking at her with such passion as if nothing in the world was more important to him than her existence. It was very hard for any woman to resist him and not fall for him.

Madeline, who was always rigid, stubborn, and cold-hearted felt that she was softening up, but in the end, she couldn’t reciprocate his ardent love.

This was because every time she tried to put down her guard, she would be consumed by some kind of wariness and fear. This happened every time Noah tried to be with her and love her deeply.

Perhaps, she was fearful that she would get hurt again. Her fears stopped her from loving him again. She always instinctively wanted to run away from him every time.

Noah felt an unspeakable gap between them, which caused him quite some anguish. However, he couldn’t push her too hard.

After all, this was the consequence of his past actions. He had to slowly make up for his sin.

“I am not saying this so that you would feel compelled to do something or to respond to me. I just don’t want you to misunderstand me.”

“I got it.”

The two of them fell into silence. At this moment, Madeline suddenly smelled a fragrant, faint scent from Noah’s body. It smelled like milk.

Madeline inched closer to distinguish that smell further. She then looked up and met Noah’s gaze. Her heart was pounding in her chest when she commented, “Something on you smells familiar.”

Madeline coughed lightly and staggered a little.

Noah smelled his sleeves and realized that this faint, milky scent must have come from Mackenzie.

He wanted to tell Madeline that Mackenzie had returned to the country, but he remembered that Mackenzie had insisted that he couldn’t tell anyone about this fact back in the hotel.

He mulled over this and decided that he would give Madeline a pleasant surprise two days later.
