Chapter 385 Where’s Your Husband?
"Ms. Madeline, Mr. Quinn's current conditions make it difficult for him to move." Andy stood by Xander's bedside, feeling troubled as Andy made a phone call to Madeline.
Besides them, Dylan smiled smugly at Xander.
Dylan had heard Noah mention Xander as a good friend and the godfather of Thomas and Mackenzie, whom Thomas and Mackenzie often mentioned. Dylan came along with Andy this time because Dylan wanted to look at what Xander looked like.
Now that Dylan had finally met Xander, Xander's face was covered in gauze, and Dylan could not really see anything.
However, when Dylan asked Mackenzie about Xander's injuries, Mackenzie told Dylan what had happened yesterday. Only then did Dylan understand why Madeline had been ignoring Noah.
In Dylan's view, Noah deserved it this time. What could be more important than the wife and child? Moreover, Noah had not conquered Madeline yet, and Noah had messed things up already.
Even though Dylan mocked Noah, Dylan still had to help Noah win back his wife. Otherwise, Dylan would be the one who suffered if Madeline dumped Noah, given Noah's temper.
Madeline received the phone call, and Madeline instinctively looked at Noah before replying softly, "Is it still not possible even if you move Xander carefully?"
"Ms. Madeline, Mr. Quinn just woke up, and his body has not fully recovered. Now that Mr. Quinn has suffered a serious injury, Mr. Quinn should stay in bed." Andy had been acquainted with Xander for almost five years, and Andy said that for Xander's well-being.
"Got it. I'm visiting now." Madeline decided to check up on Xander personally. If Xander could not really move, Madeline wanted to speak with Xander first before Madeline could go back and use the medication at ease.
Before Madeline could hang up the call, Alexander walked over, "Madeline, one of your physical indicators is off. Come along with me so that we can reexamine it."
"Ms. Madeline, I have spoken to Mr. Quinn, and Mr. Quinn asked you to rest assured in receiving treatment at the research site. Mr. Quinn is doing well. Mackenzie and Thomas have decided to stay there with Mr. Quinn. Colton wants to take care of Mr. Quincy."
Andy's voice came through the phone again.
Ms. Madeline was a little hesitant, and Alexander urged, "Madeline, we can't delay any longer, given your physical condition. We need to administer the medication immediately. Otherwise, there could be future implications even if you have recovered."
Andy also joined in to persuade after hearing Alexander's words, "Ms. Madeline, listen to Alexander. We will arrange for someone to take care of Mr. Quinn. We'll let you know if anything happens."
"Alright then. Make sure Albert protects the safety of the villa." Madeline said with a heavy heart before hanging up the phone.
As Madeline turned around, Madeline saw Noah standing by the window while making a phone call. It appeared that Noah's brow furrowed tightly, and Noah's tone was urgent. Madeline could only vaguely hear, "Alright. Don't let her move around. I'll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, Noah walked over to Madeline, and Noah said, "I have something to attend to. I need to go out for a while."
Madeline did not respond. Noah gazed over Madeline deeply before Noah left.
After Noah left the research site, Noah drove north. Noah's destination was far away from this place, and it would take four hours to reach there.
At that time, the situation was urgent. Noah did not think much about it, and Noah just arranged his people there. There was no use regretting it now.
After arriving at the destination, Noah hurriedly ran toward a hospital, and Noah went straight to the fourth floor of the inpatient department. Noah pushed open the hospital room door, and Noah saw two women huddled together, crying.
The two women heard the noise, and they looked up at Noah. Their eyes showed confusion and helplessness.
"Who are you? Why do you keep us here?" The young woman asked in fear.
Noah did not answer. Noah walked to the middle-aged woman, and Noah stared at her face for a while before asking, "Are you alright?"
The middle-aged woman looked at Noah in confusion, and then she shook her head.
Noah dragged a chair over, and Noah slammed the chair on the ground. Then, Noah sat down imposingly in front of the middle-aged woman. Noah asked as Noah scrutinized her, "Where's your husband?"
The middle-aged woman glared at Noah angrily, seemingly thinking of Noah as a pervert who harassed her.
The young woman immediately stood protectively before the middle-aged woman, giving the impression of a fledgling protecting its mother, "What do you want? This is a society governed by law.
Don't even think about it!"
"I saved your lives yesterday. Have you forgotten about it so soon?" Noah raised his eyebrows, and Noah took out his cigarette packet. However, Noah noticed the middle-aged woman's pale face, and Noah quickly put away the cigarette packet.
The young woman paid a closer look at Noah for a moment. The young woman seemed to have just recognized Noah, and she exclaimed with delight, "It's you! You're the one who saved us!"
"You're right. It was me who saved you." Noah's gaze remained fixed on the middle-aged woman even when Noah answered the young woman's question. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
The young woman's eyes flashed with a hint of disappointment, and her voice carried a bit of bitterness as she asked, "Then, why did you lock us up?"
"Yesterday's incident is complicated. I have arranged for people to guard outside for your safety." Noah patiently explained to them.
The middle-aged woman did not speak the whole time, but she breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Noah's words.
Noah's frown became deeper and deeper. Could Noah have mistaken the person for someone else?
If the middle-aged woman was not Noah's mother, why did she risk her life to block the bullet and save Noah?
"I see. We misunderstood you earlier, and we're sorry." The young woman replied gently, and her face became bashful.
Noah glanced at the young woman, and Noah gave the young woman a fleeting smirk, "There's no need to apologize. I haven't even thanked her for saving my life yet."
The young woman was about to speak up for the middle-aged woman, but Noah interrupted and said, "Thank you for saving my life."
Noah did not believe that the middle-aged woman would remain silent the entire time.
As expected, the middle-aged woman realized the situation, and she had to respond to Noah, "You're welcome. It's just a coincidence."
Noah smiled without saying a word. Noah witnessed what happened back then clearly, and it was definitely not a coincidence.
"My godmother is always a kind person. She always helps those in need. She even adopted more than a dozen orphans before" The young woman spoke up again on behalf of the middle-aged woman.
Noah was seemingly interested in this matter, so Noah asked, "Does your godmother like children very much?"
"Yes, I always felt I should have a child of my own, but…" The middle-aged woman lowered her head as she spoke. Then, the middle-aged woman wiped her tears with her sleeve.
Seeing this, Noah looked at the young woman. The young woman also had teary eyes as the young woman explained to Noah, "My godmother had a severe illness. After my godmother woke up, she could not remember anything from the past. Godmother used to say she always dreamt of a little boy calling her mom. She believed it was a sign from God for her to take care of those poor children. That was why my godmother ended up adopting many children."
After the young woman finished her sentences, the middle-aged woman was already crying uncontrollably.
