Chapter 316 Noah Spoils Madeline

“You!” Annalise was shaking with anger.

Madeline rubbed her nose and stumbled a few steps away. “I’m sorry, looking at your face makes my stomach churn. I couldn’t help myself.”

“What did you say about me? You’re the one who makes my stomach churn! You’ve seduced Noah before, and now you’re seducing my brother! You shameless…”

Before Annalise could finish her sentence, she felt a slap on her face. She turned her head around and glared angrily at Elise.

Elise pulled Madeline away and said, “I told you to stay away from dogs. People might think you’re one of them.”

The people around them began to chuckle.

Those laughing at Madeline earlier were pinching their noses and pointing at Annalise.

“Hey, Ms. Solace, Maddie hasn’t divorced Mr. Quincy yet, but you’re already telling everyone you’re marrying him. So who’s the one going around wrecking relationships? Sometimes I wonder if your family is so poor and desperate for Mr. Quincy’s money!”

Before Madeline could say anything, Elise continued, “Maddie is Noah Quincy’s legally wedded wife. She’s the only woman deserving of the Mrs. Quincy title. Is it wrong for her to return from Uranica so she could protect her son, who nearly died because of Angie and his stepmother? What’s wrong with that?”

The onlookers remembered the news that Angie and Noah had separated because Angie and her parents had tried to take Noah’s son’s life multiple times.

Also, Madeline was the only woman whom Noah had declared his love for.

One could not say that Madeline was the third wheel. Instead, Annalise had been acting as though she were Noah’s wife even though she was not married to him.

They knew that Noah was very protective of Madeline, but if he suddenly wanted to divorce Madeline and marry Annalise, one could easily connect the dots and find out who the actual relationship wrecker was.

The onlookers continued to take photos and videos. It was rare that they got to witness socialite drama.

Seeing everyone doing that, Elise continued to stir up drama. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“As for you, Mr. Solace, can you tell everyone here why you and your two brothers have been pestering Maddie recently? Do you have any ulterior motives?”

Elise glared at Oscar sternly.

Madeline had told her that she had no feelings for any of the Solace brothers. She also said that they would not treat her badly.

Elise had been observing Madeline’s interactions with the Solace brothers. She even felt Madeline could have picked any one of the three brothers and started a relationship with them. It did not matter if they did not have any chemistry; that could be cultivated through time.

After seeing what happened earlier, Elise realized she had been wrong. Those men were close to Annalise and would somehow be complicit in her antics.

“Elise? Why are you angry?” Madeline’s head cleared up a little more after she threw up. Seeing Elise’s expression, Madeline thought she was being bullied.

Elise smiled and gently pinched Madeline’s cheek. “Just sit back and enjoy the show!”

Madeline smiled and nodded, though she did not know what happened.

“I’m sorry. I admit I haven’t kept an eye on my younger sister. I’ll bring her away now.” Oscar went up next to Annalise and wanted to knock her out with a karate chop, but he could not bring himself to touch Annalise’s vomit-stained body.

Annalise could see the disgust in his eyes, and tears fell from her eyes like a broken dam.

She sat on the ground like a spoiled child. “You’re all bullies! So what’s the big deal if you’re married to Noah? You just have an extra piece of paper, right? Noah will give that to me after we’re married!”

Elise wanted to continue to dress down Annalise, but at that point, it felt more like bullying a child.

Oscar watched all that happen in front of him without saying anything. He was a lawyer, and he was behaving as rationally as he could be.

He would not budge even if Annalise yelled herself hoarse.

“Here, this is for you. Stop crying.”

Madeline produced a booklet and wagged it in front of Annalise’s face. Annalise took it and realized it was Madeline and Noah’s marriage certificate.

Annalise’s chest heaved. She was about to have a heart attack.

Elise gestured a thumbs-up at Madeline and exclaimed, “Nicely done!”

Madeline scratched her head in confusion. Annalise wanted the marriage certificate, right? She has it now, but why is she crying even louder? What a nuisance!

“I’m going home.” Madeline staggered toward Wayne.

She could not remember if she drove there, but she noticed Wayne and instinctively went toward him.

Perhaps she was waiting for a miracle to happen.

Wayne was waiting for Elise to bring Madeline to him. Now that Madeline was walking to him by herself, he quickly opened the car door for her.

He had driven a Lincoln limousine to the bar. Many people had seen the vehicle before and knew it belonged to Noah.

Madeline was disappointed when she saw no one else in the car. After sitting inside, she rummaged through the compartments for a bottle of red wine and began guzzling it.

In the meantime, Elise stayed back to warn Oscar not to let his other brothers get too close to Madeline. As soon as she turned around, she saw Madeline drinking again.

“That’s enough drinking, Maddie.”

“Wayne? Did Noah ask you to come and bring me? Why did you let Madeline sit inside?” Madeline stood up and shouted. She noticed that her tears bought her no sympathy, and even her brother was ignoring her.

She wanted to continue to argue with Elise, but she saw Wayne and the enviable Lincoln limousine.

The Solace family also had a collection of luxury cars. However, if Madeline was sitting in Noah’s limousine, what Elise said earlier proved to be true.

“Her house is along the way, Ms. Annalise.”

Wayne knew Noah had plans to deal with Annalise. It was not the time to shatter her dreams yet.

“No! You can’t send her home! I’ll tell Noah to fire you!”

“Ah, sorry, Ms. Annalise. I’m going somewhere else to pick up another person. Bye!” Seeing that Madeline and Elise were already sitting in the car, Wayne did not want to waste any more time arguing with Annalise. He quickly sat in the side passenger seat and ordered the driver to quickly drive away.

“I’ll tell Noah to fire you!” Annalise shouted, still unwilling to admit defeat. She was about to become Mrs. Quincy soon, and once she did, Wayne would be the first one to be fired. How dare he not obey her orders!

The onlookers looked at Annalise with sympathy. Not everyone could sit in Noah’s Lincoln, and not even Angie had sat in it before.

It seemed like Madeline was the first woman to sit inside.

It was not the first time she had sat inside the vehicle either. Five years ago, Madeline had sat in it once!

Noah’s love seemed to belong to Madeline alone. He was probably only marrying Annalise to further expand his business. Moreover, he had not divorced Madeline yet, so it would still be some time before his marriage with Annalise would be confirmed.

The announcement earlier was probably only to placate the Solace brothers.

However, Annalise did not seem to realize that. She thought Noah truly loved her.

After reaching that conclusion, the onlookers began to offer their opinions on various social media platforms.
