Abusive Wife

Chapter 325 What’s Your Mommy’s Type?

After receiving a body checkup at Golden Dome International, Madeline planned to visit Oscar with Elise. Before she could leave, Thomas and Colt woke up and wanted to tag along.

Dylan pretended to look away, as though it had nothing to do with him.

“Mommy, we’ll protect you at all times so the baddies won’t hurt you.” Thomas had already equipped himself with the gadgets from his backpack.

Colt stood seriously next to him and agreed with what he said.

Madeline was moved. She smiled and said, “Let’s go together then.”

“Mommy, don’t you know Daddy sent many people to save you? It’s in the news.” Thomas handed Madeline a tablet computer.

Madeline tapped on a link to a news article about the accident the night before. The reporting did not focus on the crime but rather on how Mr. Noah Quincy was willing to sacrifice his limousine to save his wife.

She zoomed in on the photo. There was a truck flipped to its side, as well as another truck that ran into the sidewalk barricade.

According to Elise’s descriptions, Madeline could tell that Oscar was the driver of the flipped truck, and the culprit drove the machine at the barricade.

Not far away from the two trucks was a Lincoln limousine. Madeline could see her in the picture, unconscious next to the vehicle. Elise was crawling toward her with her arms.

There was also a familiar-looking motorcycle at the tail end of the Lincoln limousine. A man in a protective suit was trying to extract himself from the motorcycle pile-up and go to her.

“Who’s that?” Madeline asked curiously while pointing at the man next to the motorcycle.

Elise squinted at the figure in the photo. She did not know Noah was at the scene last night and only thought Oscar and Wayne were their saviors.

“That’s Daddy’s bike!” Colt suddenly blurted.

Madeline took a closer look at the figure in the protective suit. This time, she felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

Don’t tell me that’s Noah!

“Ahem, that’s a bodyguard I brought along with me. It was an emergency, so we took Noah’s motorcycle,” Dylan explained.

He would have spilled the truth if not that Noah had warned him repeatedly not to tell Madeline he rescued her.

I don’t know what Mr. Noah is thinking. This isn’t like him at all, Wayne thought.

Colt wanted to explain that Noah never let anyone else touch his motorcycle, but Dylan quickly covered his mouth.

Madeline zoomed into the picture and saw a dark puddle underneath the figure’s feet. She was sure that the puddle was blood because a large patch of the white protective suit was stained red, and the red stain spread down the pants leg and onto the ground.

“Maddie, Noah is actually very worried about you. Look, he ordered so many people to go and save you,” Dylan said while swiping away the first photo.

Madeline did not stop him. She was not sure how she felt when she saw the crumpled limousine and the circle of luxury cars surrounding the scene of the accident.

“Noah hasn’t been coming to Golden Dome International, has he?” Madeline asked after looking at the photos.

“Heh, well… Noah has been pretty busy,” Dylan answered sheepishly.

“Mm. Remind him to find some time to get the divorce settled,” Madeline said. She took the children’s hand and led them out.

Dylan followed her to the elevator. “Maddie, why are you in such a rush to divorce him? It wouldn’t make a difference, right?”

Madeline smirked. “It will make a difference. If I don’t divorce him, how am I going to start a new relationship?”

Dylan covered his mouth in shock. “You… You want to start a new relationship? With who? That’s so sudden!”

“Oscar saved my life. I guess I owe him my loyalty now,” Madeline said with a shrug and led the children into the elevator.

After the elevator door closed, Elise covered the children’s ears and asked Madeline, “Do you really have a crush on Oscar?”

“We can hear that, Auntie Elise,” Thomas giggled and smiled.

“Oh, haha! I was only joking with your Mommy! It’s just a joke!” Elise said and waved her hands.

Madeline did not answer her question, though an ambiguous smile persisted.

At the same time, Noah received a message from Thomas and Dylan respectively.

“Daddy! Red alert! Your beloved wife has fallen for another man!”

“Hey Noah, I think she’s found greener pastures, man.”

Noah immediately called Dylan. “What happened?”

“Maddie said that Oscar is her savior, and she’s willing to devote herself to him!” Even though Dylan sounded anxious, there was a hint of excitement and even glee in his voice.

Andy, sitting next to Dylan, turned his head away and cringed.

“My brother is a pretty decent man. He’s the most attractive when he’s boxing. Women drool at his lean body.” Alexander deliberately raised his voice when he walked past Dylan so Noah could hear him.

“Hmph. She is still my wife. She can’t possibly be with another man.” Even though Noah was practically drowning in jealousy, he trusted Madeline to remain loyal to him while they are still married.

Dylan did not think that was the case. “That’s why Madeline keeps on urging me to tell you to get the divorce finalized. Come to think of it, weren’t you making out with Angie too? So it’s no big deal if Madeline wants to date Oscar, right?”

“There’s nothing between Angie and me,” Noah said icily.

Dylan rolled his eyes. “No one will believe that. I say, Noah, you should use your masculine charm to win Maddie’s heart. Why don’t you try flaunting your muscles like Oscar does?”

“Do I look like I’m in the condition to flaunt my muscles?” Noah said gloomily.

“Ahem! I forgot you’re seriously injured. But you can’t just disappear from Maddie’s life just like that, right? If this goes on, she’ll forget you sooner or later.”

Even though Dylan was candid in his criticism, Noah had to admit he was speaking the truth.

Noah had been worried that the virus in his body would affect Madeline’s condition. That was why he deliberately stayed away from her.

If he continued to keep the distance, the relationship he had painstakingly rebuilt would soon fade to nothing.

The more Noah thought about it, the more anxious he got. He immediately sent a message to Thomas. “You have to help me. My happiness is at stake.”

“Job’s as good as done!” Thomas replied with a saluting emoji. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Noah was still not at ease. He went over to Mackenzie, who was currently playing the piano. After she finished playing a piece, Noah showered her with flattery and asked her, “Zeke, what kind of man does your Mommy like?”

Mackenzie looked at him seriously from head to toe. I’d be lying if I said Mommy likes you in your current condition.

“Don’t worry. Just tell me as it is.” Noah was not happy when he could see Mackenzie hesitant to tell him the truth.

However, he did not want to be too harsh on his beloved daughter.
