Chapter 362 I Think I'm Still In Love

Madeline and Noah shared similar thoughts.

Trenton suffered a massive loss in Uranica.He would definitely beat a hasty retreat back to his home country before finding ways to get back at them.

They had to hurry back to get a head start.

What was going to happen with the virus still in his body if they all left? What awaited Noah was death if the drugs weren't administered.

"You should head back.Why don't I stay and wait for William?" Madeline asked.

Trenton still needed that special remedy even if he were to return to the country but William was currently imprisoned by Noah's men.

Their only shot now was for Madeline to remain here and use William to lure Trenton out of hiding.

It would be best if Uranica’s authorities carted him off to prison. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Noah had to be rushed back to Imperia to make arrangements with the country.

It was also a precaution in the case of Trenton's escape.

That man could very well take advantage of Noah's illness to kill him.

Noah said nothing.He knew that it was for the best but he wasn't willing to send Madeline straight into danger.He also didn't want her to continue having any further contact with Xander.

"I'm more familiar with Uranica.Leaving me here is for the best.You need to return to Dylan's lab to get your illness treated.You'll be in danger until William develops that special remedy."

She advised softly when she noticed how reluctant he was acting.

"I'll stay.Wayne will handle everything back in Imperia."

Noah put his foot down after a short moment of silence.

That set Madeline off.

"Why are you being so difficult? You aren't well.Your best shot at survival comes down to you going home.You're completely defenseless if Trenton comes for you here!"

"If I'm defenseless, what are you? You already used your only trump card against him.He's not going to hesitate."

"You don't understand.Trenton is not going to kill me!"

She protested, but those were simply her own wishful thinking.

Trenton was going to want her dead sooner or later but that day was not today.He turned away from her grimly.

"I've made up my mind"

"I'm taking you to Andy's lab tomorrow.He has drugs there."

Madeline sighed and tried to come toa compromise.

"No, " he said sullenly.

"What do you want to do then? Do you want to die that badly?"

She sat up and stared speechlessly at him.

"Sure.It's not like my wife cares about me.I might as well just dic."

He inched closer to her.She couldn't help but burst into laughter at how childish he was acting.

What a sight.

To think the Demon King could be so cute.

"I see.You don't want to live anymore?"

She jabbed a finger into his shoulder, her words were tinged with amusement.

The tips of his ears reddened but he remained stubborn.

"Why ask if you don't care?"

"I care."

She tugged deftly at his earlobe.He suddenly turned around to pull her into his arms.

"You do?"

He grinned brightly.

She giggled and nodded.

"The Quinton Corporation is mine right now.Who's going to give me my disposable income if something happens to you?"

His smile froze at that.

She continued, "I returned to take revenge on you by making you fall for me so you'd willingly hand over all the properties under your name.I'll then kick you to the curb.You can't die before I'm done with my revenge."

"What do you mean you're not done? I'm pretty sure that debt has been paid off."

Noah could hear the teasing tone in his voice.

She must've heard the conversation he had with Trenton and lightly tapped her nose in response.

He had already given her everything under his name and was ready to die for her but she was saying she wasn't done? How heartless.

"Are you going to sleep yet? I'm tired."

She looked away, flustered despite the affectionate look in her eyes.

Noah gave her a light peck on her lips before getting back into his spot.

"You're coming with me to Andy's lab tomorrow.Stop causing a fuss."

Madeline hated seeing how little he valued his life.

"You're coming with me."

He gave his condition.That rendered her speechless.

"That's your life we're talking about here.And here you are using it to threaten me."

"That's because you're my lover."

His straightforward words made her heart skip a beat.She turned her back to him, somewhat at a loss for words.

The next morning, Madeline thought she would wake up in Noah's arms just as she did back in Imperia.Her eyelids fluttered open to scan her surroundings only to find no one around.She sat up with full confidence.

It was cold where Noah slept but it was only seven in the morning.

Why was he up so early? She went out to the balcony to see Noah in the yard playing with three children.She relaxed and gave Elise a call.

"You finally remembered me, Maddie! Do you have any idea how worried I was when I heard about what's happening from Dylan?"

Elise went into a tirade.

Madeline felt warmth wash over her.

"I'm sorry.I've been busy and had no time to call.Please forgive me, my lady.It was this servant who failed to report."

"What else is there to do but forgive you? Go on.What do you need from me?"

"Noah isn't doing so well.I want him to go to your Grandpa's place to recuperate once he returns to Imperia."

"That can be arranged.The scenery over there is great."

Elsie didn't hesitate to agree when she suddenly realized that something was up.

"Have you and Noah made up?"

She fell silent for a moment.Her voice was choked up when she finally spoke.

"I think I'm still in love with him.She had believed that her hatred triumphed over the love.Vengeance was something she wouldn't give up no matter who tried to talk her out of it but such deep hatred was borne of love.She had never let go of that emotion.

"That's a good thing.Why are you crying?" Elise asked.

"I don't know.I'm scared.I have a feeling that I shouldn't love him the way I do."

Madeline shook her head as she spoke.His flirting made her realize she might still be in love with him.

The feeling that crashed down on her at that realization filled her with panic.She feared the possibility of having what happened five years ago repeat itself.
