Aggressive Wife novel (Madeline and Noah)

Unfortunately, just as that man was being kicked out of the washroom, she heard a clicking sound that

resembled the shutter of a camera. She even saw a figure who was carrying a camera disappear out of

sight.

She sent someone to go after that man, but they failed to catch him. This was why she had come back

home just to follow the development of the news.

What she didn’t understand was the culprit behind these photos. Why would the Quinton Corporation

suddenly announce that Mr. Quincy was single now? Why did they announce that the two families were

establishing marriage ties?

Could it be that Noah had come to his senses? Could it be that Noah had finally realized that he always

loved Annalise all along, and he was now officially trying to make her his wife?

Annalise couldn’t figure out what was going on. She was about to seek Rowan’s help when she

overheard Rowan’s conversation on the phone with their grandfather, Steve.

“How can you endure such long flights with that deteriorating body of yours? Are you kidding me?”

Annalise thought,

Where is grandpa flying to?

“You don’t have anything to worry about. Annalise is fine here. That video last time was just a

misunderstanding. I will make sure to watch over her. You really don’t need to come here by yourself.”

Video? What video? Is grandpa coming all the way to Imperia just for some video?

Annalise couldn’t wrap her head around what was going on.

“Grandpa, you can’t just listen to Annalise blindly. Noah’s wife is not someone like you described. She

didn’t bully Annalise.” Rowan was having a headache. These days, Annalise had been video-calling

their grandfather every day, and it would last one to two hours. She was able to cheer up their

grandfather, and he seemed to forget about that video very quickly.

He wouldn’t know what kind of outrageous stuff Annalise had told Steve, which led to him thinking of

Madeline as someone evil and ruthless who also liked to bully Annalise.

Now, Steve was bent on teaching Madeline a lesson for Annalise’s sake. Naturally, Rowan was

reluctant to welcome him to Imperia because of that.

However, he also knew well that once grandpa had made up his mind, it would be close to impossible

to change his mind.

In the end, Rowan had tried his best to remedy things, yet the grandfather and grandson duo couldn’t

see eye to eye.

Annalise eavesdropped everything until Rowan hung up. Her hands were balled into fists as she was

consumed by anger.

She always thought that his brother was a naive, rich person who would always fulfill her needs. He

had always been nice toward her.

However, she finally knew that Rowan was just pretending all the while. He must be wary of their

grandfather taking a liking to her and in the end, giving away all of his fortunes to her. Therefore, he

tried to stop their grandfather to come to Imperia, and he even spoke badly of her in front of grandpa.

No way. She wouldn’t allow her brother to be the successor of the Solace family. She couldn’t see him

becoming the apple of grandpa’s eyes, or else once grandpa passed away, she would have no idea

how Rowan would treat her from that point onwards.

This was especially true since he was getting along better with Madeline compared to herself. Who

knew, maybe Madeline would instigate a conflict between them, which resulted in her getting kicked out

of the Solace family.

Annalise was suddenly gripped by fear.

She immediately got back to her room and made a call to Steve. She began to add in some bad

criticisms that were directed toward Rowan in their exchanges.

What she didn’t know was that Old Mr. Solace had spent the bulk of the past two decades cultivating

Rowan as the heir to the Solace family. This was not a decision he could overturn just because of some

trivial reasons.

Although Old Mr. Solace always showed Annalise affection, his heart was always with Rowan, his

capable grandson.

As Annalise continued to speak badly of Rowan, she was also wishing for Noah to suddenly confess to

her. On the other hand, Madeline finally woke up and found that she was in an unfamiliar place.

She shot up into a sitting position as her hand reached for her blade that was supposed to dangle from

her waist. She was extremely alert.

When she heard the sound of footsteps approaching her, she lashed out with her blade and aimed it at

the person’s vitals.

“Pretty lady, it’s me.” Lone Wolf was able to grab Madeline’s wrist easily. He then pulled her into his

embrace.

Madeline twisted her wrist and some steel needles protruded from a bracelet that she was wearing.

Lone Wolf was holding her wrist where her bracelet was, and if he was even a second late in retrieving

his hand, his hand would have been full of holes now.

“I am your savior no matter what. Is this your way of expressing your gratitude?” Lone Wolf stepped

back and put down a tray of food on the table in front of her.

Only then did Madeline recall being trapped in the suite that was slowly filling with poison. It was indeed

Lone Wolf who had saved her.

“How long am I out cold?” Lone Wolf was always someone who liked to hold onto grudges, and the

same could be said about owing him a favor. She didn’t need to thank him now as she had to repay this

debt in some way later on.

“A couple of hours,” Lone Wolf made himself comfortable on a sofa, and he was shielding his face from

some sunlight that had poured in through the window.

He resembled a teenager at the moment.

“What did you inject into me this time?” Madeline saw a tiny dot on her arm, and she couldn’t help but

feel her heart sink.

“It’s something that will save you.” Lone Wolf winked at her before jumping out of the window and

disappearing from sight.
