Chapter 411 Give Me Half Of It
Madeline had been sleeping since they were back. Noah and the children had been staying by her side
all the time.
"Oh? Are you awake?" Noah gave Madeline a glass of water when he saw her arms move.
Madeline felt more awake after drinking the water. She asked Noah about Quinn. "Did you find out
who's the culprit?"
Noah shook his head. "Quinn refused to say anything. We lost all the leads."
Madeline was surprised that Noah failed to make Quinn speak.
"Linda mentioned Fred that day. Who do you think he is?" asked Madeline.
"You don't worry about this. I'll take care of everything, and I promise I will not put the children in
danger." Then, Noah ordered lunch to be served.
Madeline sensed Noah hiding something from her but did not want to force him to say anything if he
was not ready.
Thomas woke up from the noise. He hugged Madeline tightly. "Mommy! I will not make you angry
again," he cried.
"Well, you said this many times before. Have you ever kept your promise?" Madeline wanted to teach
Thomas a lesson.
"Mommy, I swear I will no longer touch the computer before we go home. Otherwise, I'll stay with
Grandmaster and eat only vegetables," said Thomas.

Madeline could not help but smile. Grandmaster had always liked Thomas and wanted to teach him
many things. However, Thomas was afraid of Grandmaster. Thomas could only eat vegetables with
Grandmaster because he was a vegetarian. It was torture to Thomas, who loved to eat meat. This
showed how remorseful Thomas was.
"Alright. You must write a two thousand word essay of reflection." Madeline decided to give Thomas a
chance.
Thomas's eyes went round. He was only five years old and could hardly know two thousand
vocabularies. However, Madeline did not budge. She gave Thomas two choices: he wrote the reflection
or could only eat the fish he caught until they were home.
Thomas chose to write the reflection.
"Linda wanted to take care of you," said Noah suddenly when the children left.
Madeline knew Noah had declined because Linda was not there. She knew there must be another
reason Noah brought this up.
Then, Noah whispered something in Madeline's ear. She nodded and agreed.
Meanwhile, Linda panicked. She was blocked by the bodyguards after offering to care for Madeline
when she heard Madeline was sick. Linda worried that everyone would focus on Madeline and forget
about her. Then she would be sent back to her father and brother.
Linda decided to take matters into her own hands. She knew Noah only had Madeline in his eyes, so
she turned her focus to Dylan. She had seen Dylan ordering the bodyguards around, so she knew
Dylan was an influential person.
Linda went to the kitchen and made an array of delicious food for Dylan. Being a glutton, Dylan
welcomed any food.
Dylan was playing an online game with Elise In the evening when Elise yelled at him for not moving his
character.
"Hold on, let me finish the pasta first," mumbled Dylan.
Elise sensed something was wrong immediately. Even as a glutton, Dylan never ate while playing
games. He would only eat when someone fed him the food, just like how Elise fed him when they were
in Imperia.
Could it be Andy? Elise laughed at her own ridiculous guess.
Then, Elise heard a soft and gentle female voice from her headphones: "Eat slowly. The pasta is still
hot."
Elise smirked. "Alright. Enjoy your meal." Then, she turned off the microphone and started to fight
intensely in the game.
"Damn!" Dylan quickly put away the pasta and started to fight along.
Dylan could not reach Elise after that night. He asked Madeline whether she knew why Elise ignored
him.
Madeline called Elise and turned on the speaker on her phone.
"Hello?"

number? I couldn't reach you through the phone or Instagram. What have I done to deserve this?" said
Dylan.
The phone went silent. "Anything?" asked Elise coldly.
"Nothing in particular." Dylan stunted a little.
"So, why did you call me?" asked Elise.
"Can't I call you even though I have nothing in particular to say?" Dylan was confused. He had never
had to have a reason to call Elise before.
"I'm busy. Bye!" Elise hung up the phone before Dylan could say anything.
"Do you want me to explain to her?" asked Madeline.
Dylan waved his hand. "Nah! She'll come to her senses after two days. You guys owe me big this time,"
he said.
"What do you want?" Noah raised his brows.
"Give me half of the thing you brought out from the lab," said Dylan.
"That's a huge request." Noah did not promise Dylan right away. He looked at Madeline for her opinion.
Madeline finally remembered what she had forgotten these few days. She promised to give half of the
medicine to Lone Wolf. However, she had not heard anything from Lone Wolf.
Madeline did not know Noah surrounded Madeline and the children with heavy security after the
incident. Lone Wolf did not have any chance to get near her. He even almost got caught by Noah.
