Chapter 199
Joseph stared at the message on the phone. Soon, he showed a wanton and arrogant smile on his
gloomy face.
"Hahaha, what an amazing woman! She's interesting!" Joseph laughed as if he was in a good mood for
an instant.
Fred watched Joseph from the side and felt nervous in his heart.
"Sir, it was my negligence. I didn't realize someone had planted a bomb in the car," said Fred while
trembling in fear.
"Forget it. Maddie's means are superb. You could hardly notice what she did. You're injured. Go to a
nearby hospital for treatment first." Joseph glanced at Fred, who lowered his head and admitted his
mistake. But Joseph did not scold Fred as he was in a good mood. Joseph only cared about Fred's
injuries.
"No need, Sir. It's just a little injury. It doesn't matter." Fred refused.
"Just do what I said!" Joseph's face suddenly darkened.
"Yes, Sir."

After dinner, Madeline took a bubble bath in the bathtub. As Lone Wolf entered her bathroom once, she
asked Andy to bring a team of people to disinfect and check the bathroom before she returned to
Maple Forest Villa. There was nothing wrong, but the smell of the disinfectant was too strong. Madeline
needed to put a lot of essences to cover the smell.
At this moment, Madeline was lying in the bathtub and looking at her phone. Albert had sent her the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtphoto of the scene outside the Enchanteur Bar. Looking at Joseph's crazy look, Madeline gave Albert a
thumbs up. "Well done!"
Albert found a secluded place and called Madeline. He said, "Ms. Madeline, Joseph was so angry that
he would not let us go. I've already increased the security measures around the villa. But when I sent
people, I found Mr. Quincy's people were nearby. The number of their people is more than ours..."
"Since the Quincy family's bodyguards are here, let's remove some of our people. So we'll not be
exposed." After thinking about it, Madeline felt it was better to keep a low profile now.
"Okay, Ms. Madeline."
"And also, Joseph and Angie seem to be related. Investigate carefully to see if you can find any clues."
If Joseph and Angie were related, then it was likely that Joseph was also inseparable from the murder
of Old Mr. Quincy. As for Joseph's background, Madeline would also investigate it, but no one knew this
matter better than Noah. She wondered what Noah meant when he said it was not the time yet on the
way back.
Madeline thought wildly and reminded Albert of some small matters. Then, she hung up the phone and
enjoyed her bath time comfortably. It was just that Madeline lay down in the bathtub and was about to
watch a drama. Suddenly, she heard movement in the room. There was someone who had broken in.
Madeline instantly became alert. She quickly picked up the bathrobe on the side and put it on. After
that, Madeline walked carefully toward the bathroom door. She put her ear on the door to listen to the
movement outside. However, after she waited for a while, she heard nothing outside.
Did I hear wrong just now? Madeline was puzzled. She carefully turned the door handle.
Phew, there is indeed no one. I might have hallucinated just now. Madeline breathed a sigh of relief.
She turned around and went to the cloakroom. After putting on pajamas, she turned off the light and lay
on the bed.
As soon as Madeline lay down, she felt someone turn over and hug her. Feeling a warm breath, she
subconsciously exclaimed.
"Ah!"
"Hey, don't make noise. I just want to hug you..."
"Noah?"
Madeline found it was Noah when she felt his familiar voice and smell. What's wrong with him? Does
he want to take advantage of me?
"Noah, what are you doing on my bed? Let go of me..."
Noah felt Madeline keep moving in his arms. His heat began to rise.
"Don't move. I won't be able to bear it if you move again."
"Uh... We can talk about anything. Can you let me go first?" Discovering something was wrong with
Noah, Madeline did not dare to move anymore.
"I have a headache. I can't sleep by myself. Can you please not chase me away?" Noah's voice was a
little weak, and he sounded a little bit aggrieved.
Madeline struggled to turn around and stretched out to touch his forehead. The wound on his forehead
had just scabbed over. When she touched it, she could still feel a little bumpy.
"Headache? Oh my God, you have a fever! Is the wound on your abdominal open?" At first, Madeline
was preparing to expose his lies, but Noah's forehead was hot. So, she subconsciously became
nervous. Noah did not respond to Madeline but subconsciously hugged her tightly.
"Noah?"
"I'm fine. I'll recover after hugging you."
"Are you sure?"
"Well, if you don't believe me, you can try it."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMadeline was a little confused. Noah's forehead was a little hot, but she had never heard that hugging
could cure a fever. Besides, it seemed inappropriate to chase a patient away. Madeline was in a tangle.
She subconsciously tensed up her body when Noah hugged her.
On this lonely night, Madeline could even hear her heartbeat. She did not know whether it was because
of Noah hugging her, but she gradually felt that her body began to heat up.
Madeline even wanted to lift the quilt, but Noah already had a fever. If he sweated and caught a cold, it
would aggravate his condition.
Forget it! Just bear it all night! Madeline thought helplessly. She did not feel sleepy at all.
Just then, a phone buzzed and vibrated. Noah's cell phone on the bedside table rang. Noah did not
wake up, and the phone was on the side behind him. As Madeline could not reach his phone, she could
only let the phone keep ringing.
Finally, the other party hung up the call, but it was Madeline's cell phone rang this time. Madeline
subconsciously turned around to pick it up, but Noah took her phone first.
"Hello? Maddie, are you in danger? Why is your heart beating so fast?" Dylan had woken up by the
warning sound of the detection app in the middle of the night. He immediately called Madeline in a
daze. When Dylan connected the call, he felt his heart beating fast.
"Madeline's heart beats faster just because she is fascinated by me. Don't worry." Noah explained the
facts in a super shameless manner. Madeline was shocked by his bold words and immediately flew into
a rage.
"Don't talk nonsense!" Madeline roared.
"Be calm, don't make trouble. I feel a headache again. Beep, beep..."
Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Dylan felt aggrieved and wanted to cry.
D*mn it! What kind of abuse did I do in my previous life? I'm too pitiful to be shown affection by Noah in
the middle of the night!
