Chapter 274
At first, Madeline decided to meet Noah at the Quinton Corporation. But she revised her idea after
buying dinner and putting the food box in the car.
Whatever Noah had done in the meantime had moved Madeline's heart.
It moved her to send the resentment between them away. Madeline was almost back to being the
submissive wife of old, loving Noah, caring for and pleasing him.
She had locked herself into Noah's world and was gasping for breath.
In the car, the private kitchen owner's words echoed in her head, "I haven't seen you for years. I
thought your husband did not love our food anymore. Someone like you, a virtuous wife and loving
mother, is hard to find these days."
Madeline thought "a virtuous wife and loving mother" best fit her in the last five years. Why it came
back to me?
If things were as they were five years ago, the transformation in her would be pointless. Moreover, the
hardships she had gone through were meaningless.
Madeline had a dream every day at midnight for the past five years. In the dream, she was chasing
after Noah to explain, but she was saddened by being untrustworthy. Madeline even begged Noah to
help her and the children, but he abandoned her. She was hopeless as if she were wrapped tightly in
silk.
The owner of the private kitchen was already old, he could be reckless on the news, and he might not
know who Madeline was. But she must have known herself well.

"Ms. Madeline!" Albert remarked that it was unusual to see Madeline. He took out her regular medicine
and fed her.
"I can't. I can't turn back because of Noah..." Whispered Madeline.
"Ms. Madeline, I will call Dr. Jones now and send you to the hospital." Albert agitatedly called Dr.
Jones.
Madeline snatched the cell phone from his grasp. "No. I'll be fine in a minute."
Dr. Jones and Dylan were close now. If Dr. Jones knew, so did Dylan, and also did Noah. But it was not
Madeline's desire to see Noah now.
Madeline sat back and took a deep breath, her complexion gradually improving. Albert was relieved to
see that.
About half an hour later, Madeline had regained her composure. She put the food box aside from her
hand and said in a cold voice, "Look for Suzette Grant."
When Albert told her that Suzette had been found, Madeline was uncertain for a moment and decided
to seek out Noah instead.
But now she didn't understand her earlier decision.
As she cared for Noah, Madeline had a natural exclusion deep in her heart. It was as if a transparent
barrier had stood between them. Neither of them cared about this barrier as if it didn't exist.
She was absorbed in herself and hardly felt the barrier earlier. But now she was back to herself, she
was very aware of its availability and perhaps the severity of the said barrier.
"Our men had taken Suzette to the hotel and locked her up, but Noah..."
"He's not an issue." Madeline pushed the food box further, not wanting to think about it more.
When Madeline's Lamborghini arrived at the hotel's entrance, a familiar Rolls Royce moved in and
parked next to it without a hitch.
Noah, with his long legs, got out of the car. His charm and arrogance were something that couldn't be
disagreed.
Noah approached Madeline with hidden anger on his face and his voice clear. "Why do you come
here?"
Her eyes were red, and you should have rested more after a long day of work in the boutique.
It reminded Madeline of five years ago when she saw Noah's frown. She remembered that if Noah
frowned, she would be restless throughout the day. Besides, she would have excused herself and left if
the same question was to throw at her.
She felt uncomfortable with this feeling.
"Madeline, what's wrong?" Madeline stared at her in a daze, but she was belatedly interrupted by
Noah.
"Suzette has tried to kill me several times. I need to go see her." Madeline came back to her senses
and flicked Noah's hand away.
"Fine, let me go with you." Noah had wanted to tell Madeline to let him work it out. But Madeline's
steady gaze had turned him back.
Madeline appeared to him like another person.
But Noah still loves her, no matter how she has changed.
They entered the room where Suzette was locked up. There were quite many bodyguards filled in the
room. Suzette tied in the chair with her mouth sealed with tape.
Noah signaled the bodyguards to leave the room.
He grabbed Madeline's hand, pulled her to him, and sat her on the couch. Madeline tried to pull away,

embarrassed, aren't we the spouse for a long time?"
Noah put her hands on his lap.
"Noah, let go of my hand." Madeline blushed as she felt the muscles and heat of Noah in her palm.
Seeing that Madeline was too embarrassed, Noah did not push any further.
Noah lifted his hand and kissed Madeline's palm. He moved closer to her ear and said, "Don't move, or
you know what I am going to do next."
Madeline's gaze landed on Noah's lower abdomen, snorted, "You are such a beast!"
"You are too sexy to resist, my wife! Your stunning gaze and touches have aroused and heated my
body when you..."
"Stop it!" Madeline abruptly covered Noah's mouth.
But he stuck out his tongue and licked her palm. That lick made Madeline wince, shivering.
She understood why she had been introverted for so long because this guy was demagogic.
Suzette was captivated and disgusted by their gesture had burst into a wail.
Noah instantly raised his head and stared coldly at Suzette. She was scared to death as if she was
sitting on a cliff.
As Madeline tried to get rid of Noah and back to her senses, she walked up to Suzette and peeled off
the tape on her mouth.
It seemed like Suzette was about to scold Madeline, but she contemptuously advised Suzette, "You
better watch your mouth, as my temper is not something you can get away with now."
"I am still your mother no matter what. Let me go!" Suzette could feel Madeline's cold eyes, once a
weak and humiliated little girl, become strong now.
There was a strength in her that couldn’t be contended.
