Chapter 453 Liz, I Am Sorry

Madeline got a call from Joseph in the morning. “Maddie! How could you leave me alone here? You are

so cruel,” he complained on the phone.

“You sound fine to me. I don’t see anything wrong,” she shrugged and said. She was about to end the

call when Joseph added, “By the way, how are you these days?”

She was reminded of the lucky charm and was frustrated. “Thanks to you, I am still alive.” She began

to suspect if he had given the lucky charm to her deliberately to make her life harder.

However, he explained, “It belongs to you anyway. I was simply returning it to its owner. It can bring

good luck or bad luck to you, depending on how you use it.”

“What does that mean?” She was confused. She had never seen the lucky charm before. How could it

belong to her?

“Visit me and I will tell you everything,” said Joseph before ending the call. Madeline was annoyed, but

she desperately wanted to find out the truth, so she immediately drove toward where Joseph was

staying.

When she arrived, she found Joseph very much alive and well on the couch. She glared at him, “All

thanks to you, I almost got killed.”

“Sorry, my bad. I forgot to remind you about the implications,” Joseph shrugged with a smirk, “Though I

have full confidence in you. You wouldn’t get killed so easily.”

She raised an eyebrow as she studied the way he dressed up. He looked like he was going to attend

some event. “Are you going to attend the Quinton Corporation’s engagement party?”

He scanned her from top to toe and whistled, “You look stunning today. What are you up to looking so

gorgeous attending your ex-husband’s engagement party? I wouldn’t mind joining you if you are

looking to make a scene.”

“Thanks, but no thanks,” Madeline rolled her eyes, “Now, tell me all about the lucky charm.” She took

off the charm she was wearing around her neck.

Joseph took a deep breath as he took off the expensive suit he was wearing. He turned around, and

she saw his white shirt was blood-soaked and his back was bleeding profusely. She winced at the

sight, imagining how painful it would be.

“What happened to you? I thought you had received treatment from a doctor,” she asked.

“I don’t like anyone else to touch me,” he simply handed her an ointment and took off his blood-soaked

shirt before lying down on the couch, “Maddie, would you please help me to apply the ointment?”

Madeline scowled as she threw the ointment away on the couch. “That is not an excuse for not getting

treatment. Go away, I do not want to get my hands dirty.”

However, Joseph ignored her and continued to lie down on the couch. A few minutes later, Madeline

finally gave in and applied the ointment to his back.

“Thank you! I know you care about me,” Joseph was relieved after getting the ointment applied. He was

extremely energetic now.

“Do you plan to make a scene at the engagement party?” Madeline raised an eyebrow. It seemed like

Joseph was confident he could ruin the event for Noah.

Joseph shrugged and ignored her question. He simply said, “No matter what happens later, do not get

involved. Just get behind Rowan.”

It seemed he was not prepared to tell her about the lucky charm, so Madeline gave up trying and left

the apartment after glaring at him.

Afterward, when she saw on the screen the scandal between Joseph and Annalise, her first reaction

was that Joseph had stepped into Noah’s trap once again.

She did not know what Joseph wanted to do to Noah at first, but now she realized Noah had set a trap,

and Joseph had walked into it.

“Bring me to the room where Annalise is,” Madeline asked a worker to lead the way. Since Noah had

just defended Madeline, the worker immediately nodded and brought her upstairs.

However, the worker was also clueless; she had been working all day in the kitchen, and she had no

idea what happened outside. In the end, Madeline found the right room by studying the direction of the

sunlight on the screen. She also located where Joseph was at.

Before she could enter the room, someone stopped her. It was Steve. “Who are you? What are you

doing here?”

Steve was here because Annalise called for him to witness her being together with Noah so that Noah

could not back out of the wedding.

Madeline turned around and saw an old man. She had taken a look at the guest list today, and she

could easily guess who he was. Alexander had told her previously that Steve had not been well, and

any emotional shock would be terrible for him.

She quickly stepped in front of the door and said politely to Steve, “The party is in the foyer. Let me

escort you there.”

Steve looked at her and was momentarily stunned. His lips quivered as if he wanted to say something.

Tears began to well up in his eyes.

Madeline checked herself quizzically. She was dressed up normally. Why did Steve look at her like

there was something wrong? Did Annalise show him her photo before, so he was showing hatred

toward her?

However, he did not seem disgusted by her. It looked like she reminded him of someone he used to

know. She secretly sent a message to Rowan, telling him the room location while asking him to get

here immediately.

“Liz!” Steve took a step forward, trying to get closer to Madeline. She instinctively took a step back.

Before she could say anything, Steve’s face turned pale as he clutched his chest.

“Old Mr. Solace! Is anything wrong? Do you have your medicine with you?” She was worried about

seeing him sick. She wondered briefly why she had this strangely familiar connection with the Solace

family, including the Solace brothers and also Old Mr. Solace.

Her heart ached to see Steve in pain. Tears began to roll down his cheeks as he said in a quavering

voice, “Liz, I am sorry that you have suffered so much…”

“What happened?” Noah stepped in and swiftly found the heart medication in Steve’s pocket. Noah

immediately took Steve over and gave him the medication, before informing the medical team on

standby to bring the stretcher.

“Grandpa!” The Solace brothers arrived following Madeline’s instruction. They looked at Madeline, and

then their faces fell as they heard the noise from the room.
