Chapter 448 Why Do You Care About Her?
“Daddy, why isn’t Mommy here yet?” Thomas could not stand it anymore. If Noah had not promised to
make up with Madeline, the kids would not come to welcome the guests one by one at the door.
“Well, the most beautiful woman has to be the last to show up!” Noah deliberately wrote 12:30 p.m. on
the invitation card to Madeline. He wanted her to show up last and become the center of attention.
Most of the guests had arrived. Noah breathed a sigh of relief. At least, the kids had helped him
welcome most of the guests.
With a stern look on his face, Noah bypassed the guests and slipped away to the backyard.
Right then, Wayne walked into the backyard too from the back door. He followed Noah to a hidden
corner and told him what he had found out.
“Joseph blamed everything on Fred. Fred denied it at first. But then he admitted it. Joseph is on his
way to the villa. It seems that he wants to come back officially today.”
Noah nodded upon hearing that. However, he could not help but smirk. Joseph’s company was
affected because of Fred. It was unlikely for his company to recover in the next three or five years.
For that reason, Joseph insisted on taking the Quinton Corporation back no matter what. He was going
to use Gordon’s will as an excuse.
"Where did he get the invitation card?”
"He went to look for Annalise the day before yesterday and promised he would bring Mrs. Quincy away
as long as she gave him the invitation card,” Wayne said without looking up. He knew Noah must be
mad hearing that.

Noah was emotionally unstable. He suffered violent mood swings, especially in matters related to
Madeline.
“Let him in and bring him to Annalise when he’s here,” Noah said. His face darkened.
It was after a moment that Noah finally calmed down. He looked around and reminded Wayne before
he walked off. “Stay vigilant tonight. I don’t want anything to happen.”
Noah did not want accidents like yesterday to happen again. Although the explosion was no doubt an
accident, Noah still thought it had something to do with the peace talisman in Madeline’s hand.
“Mr. Quincy, Ms. Solace is here!” One of the servants came out to look for Noah.
Noah nodded. He took a look at Colton, Mackenzie, and Thomas at the entrance and smiled before
walking back into the living room.
“Old Mr. Solace, how are you?” Noah greeted Steve as soon as he saw Steve. He was not surprised to
see him at the party.
In fact, Noah had sent Steve the invitation card himself, knowing that he was in Imperia.
Steve doted on Annalise a lot. Her engagement party was an important occasion for him.
Noah glanced at the people who stood behind Steve. To his surprise, Steve only came with the Solace
brothers.
“You’re a capable young man. You manage the Quinton Corporation well.” Steve nodded as he looked
at Noah.
Annalise was standing next to Steve. She was dressed in a very pretty gown and attracted the attention
of the guests as soon as she appeared. She was smiling shyly when Noah looked at her.
Noah led Steve and the rest to the dining table. Although many people came to congratulate them,
Noah only shook hands as he passed by.
Suddenly, someone called Noah’s name. Noah turned around and glared at the Solace brothers coldly.
Rowan smirked. “So, is Ms. Madeline going to be here today?”
“Don’t worry. The party will proceed smoothly.” Noah did not answer Rowan’s question directly. He
knew Rowan was afraid Madeline would come to mess things up.
However, what the Solace brothers said next totally confused Noah.
“Did you lock Madeline up?” Oscar glared at Noah. He seemed very mad.
Rowan’s face darkened. So was Alexander.
It seemed that they were ready to give Noah a punch if he said yes.
Although Noah looked puzzled, he did not show it on his face. He replied calmly, “We’re living in a law-
governed country. It’s illegal to lock one up and restrict one’s freedom.”
“Then, where is she?” Oscar asked again.
Hearing that, Noah pondered. However, no matter how he thought about it, it was impossible that the
Solace brothers had a better relationship with Madeline than with Annalise, their own sister.
How would they ruin their own sister’s engagement party?
It was strange that the Solace brothers behaved like that.
Did they like Madeline too? However, isn’t it strange that three of them like Madeline at the same time?

“I didn’t lock her up. She will be here soon.”
“What? She’s coming to the party? How can you do this to her? You’re humiliating her on purpose!”
Rowan bawled. He was angry.
“Wait, let me get things straight. As Annalise’s brothers, do you want Madeline to show up or not to
show up at the party today?” Noah scowled.
Hearing that, Rowan’s face darkened.
It seemed that the Solace brothers were in a dilemma. They wanted to see Madeline, to ensure her
safety. However, they did not want her to see Noah engage with Annalise with her own eyes. They
were afraid she would be sad.
“Why do you care about her?” Noah asked, confused.
Rowan and Oscar looked at each other. They did not know how to answer Noah’s question. They
apologized quickly and left in a hurry.
Looking at their backs, Noah scowled. Then, he said to one of the bodyguards who stood beside him,
“Keep an eye on them. Report to me if anything happens, especially if Mrs. Quincy is involved.”
“Yes, sir!” With that, the bodyguard ordered his men to stay close to the Solace brothers at once.
“Ro, I don’t think Noah locked Madeline up,” Alexander said. He had gone through many things with
Noah and Madeline in Uranica. He did not want to see Noah betray Madeline.
Although Alexander did not think Noah and Madeline would get back together, he did not want
Madeline to be sad.
“I have a hunch that something is going to happen. Ask the public relations department to get ready.
Alex, stay with grandpa. I’m scared he couldn’t take it!” Rowan said with a frown.
