Chapter 444 Who Gave You That Lucky Charm?

Noah said, "So, to get that picture, my wife was willing to video chat with me."

Noah slowly approached Madeline. He sat down on the desk in front of her and peered down. His big and clear eyes were filled with intense affection, making it impossible for Madeline to look away.

"Have you thought about it? We just ended our video call two hours ago. Even though I realized you were deceiving me, it wouldn't have been possible for me to rush back from Uranica."

Madeline's chin was raised by Noah using his delicate fingers. He bent down to try to kiss her on the lips. In an attempt to avoid that kiss, Madeline slightly turned her face to the side.

She said, "I believe Simon should have informed you about that picture earlier, right? You rushed back from Uranica because of this."

Noah asked, "Are you unwilling to believe my feelings for you? Or do you tend to flee from things the more you care about them?"

Their breaths merged as Noah's face suddenly drew nearer. They would be kissing if they were just a little bit closer.

Madeline jumped out of the chair in a panic because she was unable to stand Noah's intense gaze and the ambiguous atmosphere.

Madeline almost bumped into Noah's shoulder as she stood up because he was too close to her.

When she hurriedly backed away, she stumbled and was about to fall.

She was swiftly caught by Noah, who took her into his arms and whispered next to her ear, "I was so desperate to see you that I returned. I took a flight back because I couldn't sleep and couldn't stop thinking about you."

Madeline's face flushed a little when she felt Noah's warm breath on her tender ear. She pushed Noah away and finally managed to free herself.

"In this case, give me that photo."

Madeline extended her hand.

She watched as Noah pulled open a drawer and casually pulled out a photo album. He held up the album, gesturing for Madeline to come and get it.

When Madeline approached him, Noah abruptly extended his hand, refusing to give it to her.

Madeline leaped to grab the album from his grasp. In doing so, she threw herself into his arms.

Noah took the opportunity to wrap his arms around her bottom. He lifted her up and spun her around on the spot before heading straight for the bedroom.

"Put me down!"

Madeline nervously cast a quick glance to the lower floors. She was relieved that Mr. Charles and the others had gone to bed.

Noah completely ignored her struggle. He kicked open the bedroom door, placed her on the bed, and then pressed his body against hers. Then he kissed her lips, neck, and a particularly delicate spot on her chest with passion.

Madeline at first vehemently resisted. Gradually, she was led into a state of bewilderment by Noah. Her body became soft, as if it had no bones.

In the end, she simply gave up resisting him. After all, with Noah's looks and figure, what did it matter if they shared a bed together? She had nothing to lose. She might as well enjoy it for free.

Under Noah's passionate attack, Madeline came to terms with the situation and began to actively cooperate with him.

Even though it was only a slight movement, Noah appeared to be given the go-ahead when she arched her back. He felt like box after box of fireworks had blossomed in his heart. His movements became bolder. He grabbed Madeline's collar and prepared to tear it off.

At this precise moment, Madeline's phone rang. She reached out to grab her phone.

Noah, however, grabbed her hand and prevented her from taking that call.

The phone kept ringing nonstop. Madeline was particularly worried that something could go wrong with the kids. She bit on Noah's lip, using the brief discomfort as an opportunity to escape his hold.

When she saw Noah staring at her with a gloomy expression. She explained softly, "What if something happens to the children…"

Noah relaxed his brows. He lay on the side with his hand propping up his head and watching her. He felt a sense of accomplishment as he looked at the marks he had left on her neck. Soon, his woman would once again be his.

"What's wrong?"

Madeline gave the caller displayed on the phone screen a quick glance. It was a call from Albert.

Albert stated, "Joseph's health is not very good. He needs to be taken to the hospital."

Madeline frowned and cast a quick glance at Noah. She recalled his earlier attempts to murder Joseph. She wanted to get out of bed and talk to Albert outside. When she moved, Noah pulled her back to his arm.

Noah reached inside her collar.

Madeline dodged and glared at him. She warned him in a low voice, "Stop messing around!"

Then she noticed Noah pull the lucky charm out of her chest without showing any emotion.

The look in his eyes darkened. He asked, "Who gave it to you?"

Madeline responded, "For the time being, you manage it. I'll be there right away."

Madeline hung up the phone. She tried to seize that lucky charm back from Noah's hand, but he clung to it tightly. Something wasn't right about his expression. At least the burning desire had completely disappeared from his eyes.

"Who gave it to you?" Noah asked again when there was no answer from Madeline.

Madeline looked at his slightly angry eyes and asked in puzzlement, "You've seen it before?"

"Answer me first. Who gave it to you?" Noah persisted in asking questions until he received a response.

Madeline realized something was wrong. She tried to forcefully take that lucky charm back, but Noah refused to let go. Even worse, he broke the necklace, securing the lucky charm in his hand.

"Noah, it’s mine! Give it back!"

Madeline got out of bed and gave Noah a serious look.

Noah toyed with that lucky charm in his hand. His initial tender and affectionate looks had faded from his eyes; they now flashed with a hint of murderous intention. His gaze toward Madeline had become somewhat cold.

The romantic notions Madeline had were no longer there. She also adopted a cold expression.

"This thing will bring you trouble. I'll keep it for you for now."

Without further explanation, Noah attempted to tuck the charm into his pocket.

Madeline had no desire to argue with him. She simply reached out and grabbed it. The two of them fought for a while, with Madeline mostly attacking and Noah avoiding. Eventually, Noah seemed to be deliberately teasing her and messing with her.

Feeling played and outmatched, Madeline became very angry. Her movements grew more ferocious.

When she unleashed her first hidden weapon, attempting to use an anesthetic to knock Noah down, he suddenly counterattacked and tried to grab her wrist. Madeline took advantage of his force to jump behind him and sneak attack him.

She was thrown violently away in the process by Noah, causing her to crash into the wine rack.

A loud noise was made as the wine rack fell. The wine bottles rolled and shattered all over the floor.

Madeline was lying among shards of broken glass. She was soaked in red wine from head to toe, looking utterly wretched. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

"Are you okay?"

Noah bent down to pick her up. All the other emotions were replaced by worry.

Madeline took a look at the lucky charm that was within her reach. She pretended to cooperate with Noah. When his hands reached her waist, she suddenly snatched that lucky charm from his hand.
