Chapter 341 Xander’s Childhood Friend
“Mrs. Quincy even said that she vowed to make Connor and the Hann family repay what they’ve
stolen… Without the Hann family in the way, Mr. Hann could have a clearer and easier path now…”
Nancy told everything that she knew to Noah, including some of her speculations.
Noah was feeling on cloud nine the more he heard what Nancy said. He knew that Madeline still cared
for him deep down.
She had done so much for him behind his back!
“Pass that thing to Wayne. You will get what you worked for, as promised by my wife.”
“Thanks a lot, Mr. Quincy.” Nancy was so happy that she wanted to dance around.
It seemed that her time in the Hann family serving those disgusting people had paid off. It seemed that
she did not waste her time belittling herself and laying low in that family.
She had finally overcome the hump!
Madeline had promised her that as long as she told her everything about Connor, all the stocks of the
Hann family would belong to her!
At that moment, Nancy did not actually realize that she had made a perfect choice. It was only until a
few days later that she witnessed a few conglomerates in Imperia going bankrupt that she could pat
herself on the shoulders. She felt lucky that Madeline had chosen to cooperate with her.
Or else, she might share the fate of those in the ruins. She might end up in jail or even take her own
life.
Half an hour later, Noah received some information from Nancy. It was a disc that contained the
accountancy of the Hann family, as well as a video.
When he played the video, it depicted Connor getting beaten up by those looking to settle some debts
with him. Perhaps due to fear of dying at their hands, Connor coughed up everything about how he had
stolen the important documents from Gordon in the past, and how he had ganged up on the Quincy
family and betrayed them. It almost led the Quincy family to declare bankruptcy. Then, he also put the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtblame on Madeline.
Despite all that, he was not the main player here. He did not know the most vital information.
However, Noah was still able to capture the essence of all these haphazard data. One name caught his
attention: Ezra of the Gillian family.
The Gillian family and the Quincy family shared some history between them. On the surface, they were
long-lasting compatriots, but in truth, they were rivals.
Ezra was almost Gordon’s age, and they almost hailed from the same background. They began taking
over the family business right around the same time as well.
However, the Gillian family always lagged behind the Quincy family every time. This was seen in Ezra
as well, as he could not match up with Gordon in terms of looks or talents.
Noah knew that Ezra always had his eyes set on surpassing Gordon, but he did not expect Ezra to use
dirty methods to achieve that.
When he thought of how his grandfather had died, and how the Gillian family had stolen so much from
them, they still were not able to stand on top of the Quincy family. On the contrary, they lost to the
Quincy family in almost every department.
Those imbeciles of the Gillian family had no guts to stand up to Noah at all.
“Look into the Gillian family’s connection to Joseph. Give me everything that you got.”
“Roger.” Wayne almost made a complete recovery, and he resumed his post to assist Noah as best as
he could.
If Madeline knew that Wayne had returned to work so soon, she would scold him for abusing Wayne.
She would look down on him.
When he thought of this, he decided to give Wayne some break, “You just need to delegate your job to
your underlings. You don’t need to go into the field yourself.”
“Thank you for being understanding,” Wayne almost teared up when he heard Noah’s caring words.
In New Yale, Madeline finally reached Xander’s ward. The kids were tagging along too. They were
watching Xander who was sleeping peacefully through the window, and all of a sudden, she was timid
to reestablish this relationship.
“Mommy, our godfather will be so happy to see us,” Mackenzie was pulling her arm, and she was
showcasing a brilliant smile.
Madeline nodded in agreement, and she was about to push the door when a familiar yet annoying
voice came.
“Why are you here, you harbinger of misfortune? Are you here to finally deal the finishing blow since
you hate my son so much?”
Madeline did not need to turn around to see who was coming. She quickly covered Mackenzie’s ears
and fled the scene.
It was not like she was afraid of her and afraid of going up against her. In truth, she still felt some
lingering guilt toward her.
Five years ago when she first woke up in the hospital, Xander’s mother was the one who was taking
care of her. She used to be a kind, caring old woman.
However, things got complicated later on. As Xander continued his meteoric rise in the business world,
more and more people were targeting him as their enemy.
Sometimes, those people would look for him even in his house.
Xander’s mother who had been enjoying a peaceful life had only one wish: She wished to see his son
and daughter-in-law enjoying a peaceful life as well.
She did not believe that Xander was the one who instigated these people, so she surmised that
Madeline must be the one who had caused all that. After all, she had suddenly barged into their lives,
and she seemingly appeared in the hospital out of nowhere. She was also in a near-death state.
Actually, Emelia used to like Madeline because she felt pity for her. After that, she pretended to be
Xander’s girlfriend because of some circumstances, which Emelia felt was inappropriate.
After all, her son had graduated from Camber High, and he had a high-paying job. He should be able to
easily find a girlfriend from an affluent background, not someone like Madeline who was a divorcee and
had her own children.
However, there was a time when Xander was able to convince her to try to get to know Madeline more.
Madeline was shocked that she had listened to her and she actually tried to get close to her and the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmtwo kids.
Everything was fine until the day when Madeline and Xander were met with that accident which was
meticulously planned. This was the same incident that Mackenzie had mentioned, the one that was
very dangerous.
In order to save Madeline’s life, Xander sustained severe injury, and he almost lost his life.
His parents and his pregnant sister rushed to the hospital when they got wind of the news, but a car
accident happened to them. The father was dead, and his sister had a miscarriage. Soon, she got
depressed and eventually took her own life.
Madeline was always sorry for Emelia who had undergone all of that. This was why no matter how
vicious Emelia was treating her, she never fought back.
“Stop right there! I have told you before that you can’t come here with those imbeciles. Are you deaf?
Or do you really wish to see Xander dead?” A young woman suddenly rushed toward them. She had
been defeated in Madeline’s hands in the past, so she did not dare to slap her. Instead, she slapped
those kids.
Colton was the unfortunate one as he was slapped by her.
Madeline saw that Colton’s cheek was swelling, and she immediately slapped that woman back.
“You dare to hit me? You’ve driven Xander to such a pitiful state, yet you still dare to hit me? Auntie
Emelia, I told you, she did all that on purpose. She wanted Xander hurt so that she could inherit his
wealth!”
This woman who was making a scene was Xander’s childhood friend. Ever since Xander had turned
into a vegetable, she had been keeping Emelia company and taking care of them.
Therefore, Madeline respected him to a certain extent.
However, this woman hit Colton, which was something she could not endure.
Thomas and Mackenzie were angered when they saw Colton getting slapped, but they remembered
that mommy had told them not to hurt their godfather’s family. Or else, they would have released Little
Bee and let it sting this young woman.
