Chapter 346
Madeline covered the man's mouth with a rag. She tried different ways to get the man to tell her something useful, but he was too loyal to Trenton. In the end, she could not get anything from him.
She could only throw him outside the villa and wait for someone to come and pick him up.
At around 2.00 am, the surveillance alarm went off, showing that someone had come to pick up the man. Madeline chased after them but was soon left behind.
"Madeline, you are always so disobedient." Hearing the familiar and hoarse voice over the phone, Madeline was terrified. The fear made her feel nauseous.
"Disobedience comes with a price." His laughter was once a nightmare for Madeline. Hearing it again, her hand holding the phone trembled. But the phone was hung up before she could ask him what he wanted.
Madeline was in a panic, and she immediately called her children to tell them to hide in their secret base.
She then dialed Noah's number, but no one answered. She was terrified.
She made three consecutive calls and finally heard Noah's amused voice.
"Is there something?" His voice had a rising tone at the end, as usual.
It should mean that there was nothing wrong. She breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why aren't you speaking?" Noah felt something was wrong, and he became more serious.
"Where are you?" Madeline asked while driving.
She did not notice earlier when she was chasing after someone, but now she realized that she was in the middle of nowhere. Even without the people of Trenton, it was not safe to be alone at night.
"Are you afraid that I will come and ruin your plan?" Noah became enraged when he thought of the photo that Lone Wolf had sent.
Madeline did not notice his tone and earnestly reminded him, "No matter where you are right now, please immediately contact your bodyguards and stay safe, okay?"
"Got it. You care about me." Noah chuckled.
Madeline was dissatisfied with his unmindful tone and wanted to remind him again of the seriousness of the situation. Suddenly, an SUV rushed out at the intersection ahead, almost colliding with her car.
She quickly turned the steering wheel, and the car swerved into a nearby ditch. Both right tires sank into the ditch, and the vehicle could not move.
"Madeline!" Noah heard a loud noise on the other end of the phone, and he was frightened, but the call had already been disconnected.
"Miss, ore you okoy?" A musculor foreign mon exited the cor ond vigorously beot the window.
Modeline did not dore to open the window ond replied to him through the gloss, "I'm fine. I've olreody colled the towing compony."
"Reolly? There's still o line connection here. I thought there wosn't." The mon wolked to the front of the cor ond looked ot her through the windshield. Modeline wos ofroid when she sow the gun stropped to his woist.
"Whot's going on?" At this moment, onother mon exited the SUV, holding o lorge wrench. The two men mode eye contoct ond then slommed the wrench heovily onto Modeline's cor.
Modeline quickly got out of the cor ond ron towords the neorby forest, but the two men ron ofter her closely ond soon cought up with her in on open spoce.
"Wow, o beoutiful Democion," one of them soid.
"Finolly, our trip tonight wosn't in voin," the other odded. NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
The two men opprooched Modeline step by step. She wos not confident obout defeoting them, os they looked like they olwoys fought ond were highly vicious.
"Whot do you wont? Money?" Modeline tried to negotiote with them.
The mon just smirked ond reoched out to touch her foce. "We wont everything from you. Everything!" he soid.
"Con we do it in the cor?" Modeline grobbed the mon's hond, intending to leod them to the cor ond knock them down one by one.
However, the mon disogreed. He immediotely tore her clothes ond osked his portner to join in.
Modeline twisted the ring on her finger ond forcefully inserted it into the mon's corotid ortery. The blood gushed out. The other mon wos stunned momentorily before pulling out o gun, oiming it ot her, ond pulling the trigger.
Modeline bent ond dodged the bullets, ond the mon kept shooting ot her. When she thought she could not escope this time, o dozzling cor light shone towords them.
As the mon turned his heod bockwords, Modeline seized the moment ond grobbed o hondful of sond, throwing it into his eyes.
Then she ron towords the source of the light ond sow o toll figure wolking towords her ogoinst the light. As they possed by eoch other, she hugged him tightly.
The fomilior movement, the fomilior scent, colmed her in on instont.
Next, she heord o gunshot ond sow two bodyguords running in the direction behind her.
"Miss, are you okay?" A muscular foreign man exited the car and vigorously beat the window.
Madeline did not dare to open the window and replied to him through the glass, "I'm fine. I've already called the towing company."
"Really? There's still a line connection here. I thought there wasn't." The man walked to the front of the car and looked at her through the windshield. Madeline was afraid when she saw the gun strapped to
his waist.
"What's going on?" At this moment, another man exited the SUV, holding a large wrench. The two men made eye contact and then slammed the wrench heavily onto Madeline's car.
Madeline quickly got out of the car and ran towards the nearby forest, but the two men ran after her closely and soon caught up with her in an open space.
"Wow, a beautiful Demacian," one of them said.
"Finally, our trip tonight wasn't in vain," the other added.
The two men approached Madeline step by step. She was not confident about defeating them, as they looked like they always fought and were highly vicious.
"What do you want? Money?" Madeline tried to negotiate with them.
The man just smirked and reached out to touch her face. "We want everything from you. Everything!" he said.
"Can we do it in the car?" Madeline grabbed the man's hand, intending to lead them to the car and knock them down one by one.
However, the man disagreed. He immediately tore her clothes and asked his partner to join in.
Madeline twisted the ring on her finger and forcefully inserted it into the man's carotid artery. The blood gushed out. The other man was stunned momentarily before pulling out a gun, aiming it at her, and
pulling the trigger.
Madeline bent and dodged the bullets, and the man kept shooting at her. When she thought she could not escape this time, a dazzling car light shone towards them.
As the man turned his head backwards, Madeline seized the moment and grabbed a handful of sand, throwing it into his eyes.
Then she ran towards the source of the light and saw a tall figure walking towards her against the light. As they passed by each other, she hugged him tightly.
The familiar movement, the familiar scent, calmed her in an instant.
Next, she heard a gunshot and saw two bodyguards running in the direction behind her.
"It's all right now," Noah threw the gun to his bodyguards and lifted Madeline.
"You..." Madeline did not expect him to come to the Uranica, and she still wondered why he stopped staying away from her. But she dared not ask questions when she met his cold and stern gaze.
Noah carried her to his Land Rover. He fastened her seatbelt and then drove without saying a word.
The tension in the car reached its peak, and Madeline unconsciously slowed down her breathing rate.
They were silent until they arrived at the villa. Noah got out of the car first, and Madeline hurriedly went to open the car door, but it could not open.
She could only watch as Noah exited the driver's seat and came to her side, opening the door and carrying her out.
"I can walk by myself." She tried to jump out, but Noah gave her a cold gaze.
She was inexplicably intimidated. She had faced such vicious criminals earlier without any fear, but she was now intimidated by a glare from Noah. She was angry at herself for being frightened.
"Daddy! Mommy!" The three children saw Noah carrying Madeline on the surveillance camera and ran to surround them. Thomas, in particular, happily jumped up and down, tugging at Noah's sleeve and saying, "Daddy, you're so slow. What took you so long to find us now."
"If you came later, we wouldn't even have to return home," Colton added, exaggeratingly.
Mackenzie nodded in agreement.
Madeline had a puzzled look.
How could it be late when it's been less than one day? Come on. Your daddy is the president of the Quinton Corporation. He has a lot of work to do.
"You should go to bed now. Daddy and Mommy have something to talk about." Noah held onto Madeline and did not let her go.
The three children nodded obediently. Thomas walked to the door of the room and ran back to Noah, "Daddy, don't be angry with Mommy. Mommy has told grandma that you are her husband. She and the godfather are just friends."
Seeing this, Mackenzie also ran back and added, "Mommy didn't bring you to Uranica because she didn't want you to take risks."
Noah looked down at Madeline. Madeline pretended not to know everything. He finally relaxed.
"Daddy, if you lose your temper, you will lose Mommy." Colton also walked up to Noah and said sincerely.
