Chapter 383 What Did You Do To Her?
Madeline could not help but sigh when she saw Colton staring at her with anticipation. “I’ll talk to him later. Go back to your room with Zeke and Thomas first.”
“Really? Are you really going to talk to Daddy about it?” Colton’s eyes lit up. He smiled happily.
Hearing that, Mackenzie was delighted too.
Thomas, on the other hand, was expressionless. He remembered Colton’s words and wanted to go over to Noah who was sitting alone in the living room.
Nonetheless, Mackenzie gave him a glare. However, Thomas did not get it.
“Zeke, what's wrong with your eyes?” he asked.
Hearing that, Mackenzie could not help but roll her eyes. She pulled Thomas behind her back and gave him another death stare.
Thomas was confused. He shrugged but did not dare to move again.
Zeke is so scary. I didn’t even provoke her but she’s angry with me. Is it because her eyes hurt?
Seeing her kids’ behaviors, Madeline could not help but shake her head. It seemed that nothing could affect their love for their father. It was an inborn tendency and nothing could change that.
Meanwhile, Han turned around and saw Madeline walking over to him. Behind her, Mackenzie and Colton were cheering for her excitedly.
Did Colt tell her everything?
Instantly, Noah was nervous. He had to think about how to explain to Madeline about his mother.
However, as soon as Noah met Madeline’s eyes, he could not say a word. His chest was stuffy, and he could only feel unspeakable pain.
“Have you eaten today?” Madeline asked, finally.
Hearing that, Noah was surprised. He shook his head honestly.
"You haven't eaten anything since you came back yesterday?" Madeline frowned.
“I’m going to eat something now!” Noah blurted at once. He was afraid Madeline would leave.
Feeling uneasy, Madeline did not know how to react. Noah was not like that before. Nonetheless, she still blurted out what was on her mind. “The medicine is ready. Let’s go to the lab first. We can grab something to eat on the way.”
“Let’s eat something first before going to the lab. There must be some leftovers from last night. Moreover, you also haven’t eaten anything since yesterday!” Noah stood up quickly.
Although Madeline only wanted to have something simple, she did not want to argue with Noah. She walked toward the dining room at once.
Noah followed Madeline into the dining room. He was happy that she took the initiative to talk to him.
There were only two maids in the villa. When they saw Noah and Madeline in the dining room, they quickly went to heat up the leftovers and prepared to cook a few more dishes.
“Don’t bother to cook anything. We’ll just finish the leftovers from last night.” Madeline was not in the mood to eat. She did not want to bother the maids.
In fact, Madeline did not want to waste time eating. She rather went to the lab earlier.
Hearing that, Noah somehow sensed what was on Madeline’s mind. His face darkened.
“Trenton has gone back to his country. When are we going back?” Noah asked and told her what his men had found out.
Hearing that, Madeline was not surprised at all. Immediately, Noah knew Albert must have told her.
“I’ll only go back after Xander recovers. You can go back first if you couldn’t wait, but the kids must stay,” replied Madeline while eating.
Hearing that, Noah stared at Madeline without blinking his eyes. He almost forgot to eat.
“Hey, what’s wrong? Come on. Finish your food. Otherwise, I’m not going to wait for you,” Madeline said as she knocked on Noah’s fork with hers.
It was not until a moment later that Noah came back to his senses. Regaining his composure, he picked up some salad and continued, “I want to stay here to keep you company.”
“It’s okay! You’d better go back first.” Without hesitation, Madeline rejected Noah.
Madeline wanted to calm down. She had to think about her standpoints. Moreover, she also needed some space to sort things out.
“Is it because of Xander?” Noah could not help asking.
“Well, it will take at least half a month for Xander to recover fully. Are you sure you can stay here for such a long time? And are you sure you stay back because of me?” Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Madeline could tell what Noah was thinking from his eyes. Noah stayed back because he wanted to look for the two women. It was not because of Madeline. Nonetheless, Noah could not tell Madeline the truth.
"I'm done. I’ll wait for you in the car." Madeline could not eat anymore. She put down her fork and left the dining table.
However, Noah grabbed her wrist. “You can eat here. I’ll wait for you outside.”
“If you’d finish, let’s go.” Madeline shook off Noah’s hand and strode forward.
It was quiet in the car. Madeline was driving. However, she looked troubled. She honked several times when people tried to switch lanes.
Seeing that, Noah quickly held the steering wheels for her.
“I meant it when I say I want to stay here to keep you company. I don’t care about other things. But I have to stay with you. Otherwise, I can’t sleep.”
“You don’t have to tell me everything. You can do whatever you want!” Madeline sneered.
"I will find out what happened yesterday and let you know after the investigation.”
"I hope you don’t go back on your words.” What happened yesterday could threaten the kids’ lives. Madeline wanted a thorough investigation.
Madeline admitted that she was also responsible for what happened yesterday. If she had not rushed to help Noah rashly, Trenton would not have had the chance.
Nonetheless, Noah could not put the children in danger in order to lure Trenton. He had to take the blame.
“Madeline, you have to believe me. You and the children are always the most important things in my life.”
However, Madeline only remained silent. She stepped on the gas pedal and sped off.
Soon, they reached Andy’s laboratory. Dylan and Andy were already waiting for them at the door. Not only that, Alexander was there too.
"Thank you so much for your hard work," said Madeline as she nodded to Alexander. Alexander greeted her and asked about her condition.
Andy and Dylan remained silent. Nonetheless, Dylan felt awkward. He sneaked up on Noah and asked curiously, “What happened, Noah? Madeline seems mad. She didn’t even look at us. But I didn’t do anything wrong lately. It must be you. What did you do to her?”
