Chapter 183:
Madeline was stunned when she heard what he said.
She broke into laughter when she came to her senses.
"Ha! This joke is not funny at all. I suggest you change it!"
Madeline was not ready to face this situation.
After all, the scariest thing in the world was not being hated by Joseph, but being liked by him.
"You can deny it, but I'm being dead serious." Joseph made himself clear.
Can he please stop it?
"Jo, if you're being serious, then I have something to tell you. I'm legally married to Noah, and I do not intend to get a divorce with him."
"Maddie, I will get rid of anyone that is in our way, including your husband."
"J-Joseph, are you insane?" Anger poured through Madeline when she heard his words.
"Maddie, are you dissatisfied with me?"
"Wouldn't you feel this way if I threatened to hurt your other half?"
"Maddie, I would do anything for you."
Her anger spiked just from talking with Joseph.
How can someone as shameless as him exist?
Hold up, wait a minute.
"Joseph, did you send Lone Wolf here to sabotage Noah?" She should have realized it sooner.
"Maddie, you're always the brightest and smartest person." Joseph proudly admitted his action.
He was even smiling smugly.
"What's your motive?" Maddie questioned him.
Madeline had never heard that Joseph and Noah were enemies. They had nothing in common except the same surname.
"You are the reason!"
"Please take my question seriously."
"Well, I would never lie. My answer will always remain the same."
"Okay, I'm going to teach you a lesson if you're being unreasonable!" Madeline sighed. She threw a steel ball toward him when he was off his guard.
Joseph caught the steel ball with his reflex, and he heard a boom.
The steel ball exploded and blinded his vision.
Madeline was no longer in sight when the smoke dissipated.
Fred rushed over to Joseph when he heard the loud noise inside the ward, and he asked, "Sir, should I send someone to chase after her?"
"No, we'll meet again soon."
"Let's get out of here first; the smoke is too much."
"Okay, to the castle." Joseph picked up the crutches and walked out of the ward.
Madeline managed to escape from Joseph. She rushed toward the nearest elevator.
Ding! The elevator arrived when Madeline was a few meters away from it. A woman stepped out of the elevator.
"Angie?" Madeline was shocked; she was certain that she saw Angie.
Even though the woman's face was being blocked by a hat, she still looked very much like Angie. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Madeline called out for Angie subconsciously; she sped up to catch up to her.
Regrettably, the woman did not look back; she then disappeared into the crowd.
Madeline did not go after her because Joseph was still around the area. She decided to take her leave.
She hurriedly went into the elevator. She soon arrived on the first floor safely.
Someone called her name when she was about to look for the hospital's exit.
"Ms Madeline!"
"Albert, why are you here?"
"This is Northern Suburbs Hospital. I couldn't reach your phone just now, so I thought you were in trouble. I did not expect you to reach here by yourself!" Albert was relieved to see Madeline safe and sound.
He had called Madeline's phone countless times, but none of the calls were picked up. He was extremely worried.
"This is not a suitable place to catch up; let's leave." Madeline was afraid that Joseph would scout for her, so she left with Albert hastily.
Albert got into the car with Madeline obediently; they were leaving for the city.
"Ms. Madeline, is everything alright?"
Albert noticed something was off with Madeline; she was wrapping her arms all around herself.
Albert and Joseph showed up just now.
"Ms. Madeline, were you hurt?" Albert felt uneasy upon hearing his name.
"I'm fine. But I feel like something happened between Joseph and Noah. "Please look into this matter for me."
"Okay."
"Sadly, we did not find Angie. It must have startled her this time around." Albert was sullen that his carelessness had caused Angie to run away.
"It's alright. She will appear sooner or later."
Madeline became lost in her thoughts as she remembered the woman she saw back then.
She believed that nothing was happening by chance. She felt that Angie was baiting her into a trap, and she even met Joseph just now.
All of these were too coincidental.
"Okay. I'll continue to keep an eye on her. By the way, Mr. Quincy seems to be investigating Zeke."
"Well, just leave him be. He found out Zeke's existence not long ago."
She was surprised that instead of interrogating her, Noah chose to investigate secretly.
Hmph! He's such a douchebag. Does he think that I'll lie to him?
"Should we inform Zeke? She'll be furious if she discovers you've been lying to her about her father."
"Albert, won't you think that Zeke knows about his existence?"
"Huh?"
"Thomas was Zeke's fanboy, so it's impossible that Zeke does not know about it."
My sweet daughter is brilliant!
"Oh, then I don't have to worry anymore." Albert felt a sense of relief.
He had been watching over Thomas and Zeke since they were young. So he knew that Zeke was sharp and smart.
He accidentally pissed her off once, and she ignored him for three months.
"The next stop on Zeke's tour is inside our country; she will be reaching there soon."
Maybe it's time for her to come back to have a look. Madeline was thinking up a plan.
At the Quinton Corporation.
Noah was going through the piles of printed profiles of Mackenzie inside his office. The more he read, the more he liked her.
His men failed to catch Lone Wolf, but he was overwhelmed with happiness. Hence, he did not scold any of them.
Zeke looks exactly like Madeline's younger self; she looks cute and energetic.
What's more, Zeke is so exceptional!
As expected of my daughter!
Noah went through all of the documents throughout the afternoon. The majority of the documents were Zeke's certificates and achievements being reported in the newspaper.
He flipped through each of her pictures, and he stared at every single one.
Zeke looked so adorable and delightful in each and every photo. He was proud to be her father.
Unexpectedly, he came across a picture where a little boy was holding Zeke's hand.
He was burned with anger, and his smile was long gone.
He picked up his Internet phone and called for Wayne.
"Sir, what do you need me to do?" Wayne was anxious when he saw Noah's bitter face.
"Find out who this brat is. I want to cut off his hand!"
