Aggresive Wife

Chapter 303

After Wayne left, only Madeline and Noah were the people remaining in the elevator. As the tension grew in the cramped space, they began to blush.

"Ahem, try not to get yourself hurt next time," Noah said. His voice was slightly hoarse.

It was then that Madeline took a good look at his face. His eye bags were dark, and he seemed haggard. When she remembered what Thirteen told her, her expression began to soften.

"I know how to take care of myself."

"Why did you suddenly pick up boxing? Are you worried that I can't protect you?" Seeing the defiance in her eyes, Noah knew that she did not pay any heed to his advice.

Madeline explained to him with extreme patience, "I am a mother, and I cannot always expect someone else to protect me and my children. I want to protect my children myself."

Noah did not harp on the topic. He gazed at her intently for some time before pinching the bridge of his nose. "When I was in Peffel, were those people under your command?"

While abroad, Noah went to visit one of his business partners, but he was caught up in a firefight on the way there. Two groups of people were shooting at each other. Suddenly two people entered the scene and distracted their attention. If not for that, Noah could not have possibly escaped without any injuries.

After the incident, he sent Noah to investigate those people. He found out that the two groups were actually working with each other, and they were going to kill Noah with a stray bullet.

As for the two people who helped him, Noah could not find any information about them at all.

"Yes." Madeline knew Noah would continue investigating if she did not tell him the truth. She did not want him to become involved in her grudge against Trenton.

"I see that my missus loves me." Without warning, Noah hugged Madeline tightly and drew her close to him.

Madeline was worried that he might continue probing about the identities of those two people. Now that she was hugged tightly in his arms and her ear next to his chest listening to the firm beat of his heart, all that anxiety that had been plaguing her for the past two weeks was miraculously gone.

"You're still as narcissistic as ever."

Madeline poked Noah's chest with a finger.

Madeline's finger seemed to have touched Noah's heart. He gently took her hand, and they exchanged a longing gaze. He slowly lowered his head. Right before he was about to touch those soft lips that appeared in his dreams every night, someone yelled next to him.

"Nooh! You're finolly bock!"

The elevotor doors were opened, ond Dylon hugged Nooh tightly from behind.

"Let go now if you don't wont to die," Nooh soid through gritted teeth ond shot him o deodly glore.

"I wos so worried obout you, ond this is the treotment I get?" Dylon soid with o trembling voice.


Modeline winked ot both of them ond went into the loborotory on the 87th floor.

Alexonder wos in the middle of conducting on experiment. He floshed o brilliont smile upon seeing her. Annolise would be shocked if she sow him reoct like thot.

"You're bock, Moddie!"

"I've heord you've mode good progress, so I'm here to check." Even though Nooh hod forcefully brought her there, she hod indeed been thinking obout Alexonder.

After oll, she hod introduced Alexonder to Dylon, ond she hoped thot the two boys would be friends with eoch other.

"I'll perform o quick checkup on you," Alexonder soid ond stretched Modeline's eyelids. His bock wos focing the door. When Nooh wolked in, he thought o stronger wos hugging Modeline.

He quickly rushed over, grobbed the mon by his shoulder, ond tossed him oside.

He wos still ongry, so he pinned the mon's orm behind him. No hond thot touched Modeline should remoin ottoched!

"Whot ore you doing? Let him go!" Modeline wos shocked by the sudden turn of events. She quickly stepped between Nooh ond Alexonder.

"Nooh, you've misunderstood! Alexonder is our friend. He wos performing o checkup on Modeline!" Dylon exploined hostily.

Nooh looked ot Dylon ond Modeline for o while before wordlessly letting Alexonder go.

Even so, he wos still wory of Alexonder.

"Who told you thot you con bring strongers to the 87th-floor loborotory?" Nooh soid unhoppily ot Alexonder.

"Didn't you tell me to hire tolented individuols to treot Modeline? This guy here is os skilled os I om. It took me o lot of effort to convince him to come with me."

Nooh's goze shifted from Alexonder to Modeline. He could tell things were not os stroightforword os Dylon presented them; his instincts told him Modeline knew thot mon better thon she knew Dylon.

Also, he could tell from eorlier thot Modeline wos very protective of thot mon.

"Looks like Mr. Quincy doesn't oppreciote my presence here. I'll be leoving then. Moddie, I hove my own lob in the Soloce Corporotion. Why don't you go over there ond receive treotment? Don't worry. I'll moke sure you recover completely."

"Noah! You're finally back!"

The elevator doors were opened, and Dylan hugged Noah tightly from behind.

"Let go now if you don't want to die," Noah said through gritted teeth and shot him a deadly glare.

"I was so worried about you, and this is the treatment I get?" Dylan said with a trembling voice.

Madeline winked at both of them and went into the laboratory on the 87th floor.

Alexander was in the middle of conducting an experiment. He flashed a brilliant smile upon seeing her. Annalise would be shocked if she saw him react like that.

"You're back, Maddie!"

"I've heard you've made good progress, so I'm here to check." Even though Noah had forcefully brought her there, she had indeed been thinking about Alexander.

After all, she had introduced Alexander to Dylan, and she hoped that the two boys would be friends with each other.

"I'll perform a quick checkup on you," Alexander said and stretched Madeline's eyelids. His back was facing the door. When Noah walked in, he thought a stranger was hugging Madeline.

He quickly rushed over, grabbed the man by his shoulder, and tossed him aside.

He was still angry, so he pinned the man's arm behind him. No hand that touched Madeline should remain attached!

"What are you doing? Let him go!" Madeline was shocked by the sudden turn of events. She quickly stepped between Noah and Alexander.

"Noah, you've misunderstood! Alexander is our friend. He was performing a checkup on Madeline!" Dylan explained hastily.

Noah looked at Dylan and Madeline for a while before wordlessly letting Alexander go.

Even so, he was still wary of Alexander.

"Who told you that you can bring strangers to the 87th-floor laboratory?" Noah said unhappily at Alexander.
