Aggresive Wife

Aggresive Wife Chapter 54

Chapter 54

Noah watched Madeline for a while, then suddenly broke into a chuckle. He did not resume their verbal sparring; instead, he set an invitation down in front of her.

“My son’s birthday dinner is the day after tomorrow. If you’re free, Ms. Grant, we would love to see you there.”

“Oh? You’re actually inviting me into your home, Mr. Quincy? Aren’t you afraid you’ll be luring a wolf into the fold?” Madeline felt slightly bewildered. Previously, he had believed she was deliberately trying to get close to Colton so she could entice the boy away.

Why had he suddenly changed his tune?

“If you’re the wolf in question, that would suit me admirably, my dear Ms. Grant.”

Madeline had the oddest sensation that her world had suddenly turned upside down. Noah must have knocked his head against something and gotten all muddled up before he left the house today!

By the time she had pulled herself together enough to ask what was going on, Noah had already left.

At this point, Albert came through the back door of the bar and made his way through the mass of people, hurrying over to her. “Ms. Grant, Ms. Angie’s been rescued by Mr. Quincy’s underlings.”

“Ahh, I see. Well, that was to be expected.” No wonder Noah was behaving in a manner contrary to his usual self, even giving her an invitation to Colton’s birthday dinner. It was all a cover for rescuing Angie!

Just like before, was he afraid that she would cause trouble?

For whatever reason, Madeline felt aggravated the more she thought about it. She did not even realize she had lost herself in her ruminations until Albert recalled her to the present.

“Ms. Grant, I believe the incident with Ms. Angie might have alerted certain people. The woman who claimed to be Mr. Turner’s daughter hasn’t shown up!”

After all, if that woman really had been present, Noah probably
