Chapter 553 You’re Just a Leech
The jig was up. The initial plan was to quietly do their thing before slipping away from Yashal.
Noah later said someone from Tiberos would steal the thing from Madeline no matter what, so they
planned to let Madeline go ahead either back to Tiberos or straight to Uranica.
Nevertheless, Noah blew their cover. It looked like they were not going anywhere now.
God knows what went on in that head of his.
Madeline helplessly glanced at him. By the looks of his domineering face, Madeline decided not to tear
him apart.
“Your wife? No way. She…” Wilda stared at Madeline as her expression turned from anger to surprise.
As if that was not enough, Wilda then felt humiliated and resentful.
Noah toyed with her emotions. The married couple teamed up to tease and humiliate her.
“Wow, so you’re Mrs. Quincy? You’re prettier than the photos online.” Canary was an avid internet
surfer, and yet he did not manage to recognize Madeline right away.
The realization only hit him after what Noah said. He pulled out his phone to make a comparison.
Madeline looked way better in person. The photos did not do her justice.
“I thought you didn’t look like a maid. Besides, Mr. Quincy was ogling over you. Here I was, worried that
he would take advantage of you.” Canary patted Madeline’s shoulder with a smile before meeting
Noah’s chilling gaze. With his smile freezing, he recoiled his arm.
Nevertheless, the Harvey siblings carried no ill intentions toward Madeline. On the contrary, they were
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcurious about Mrs. Quincy. They were more than willing to be friends with her.
It was a different story with Wilda though. Once she was certain that Madeline was the legendary Mrs.
Quincy, Wilda felt she had been made a fool.
“What are you doing on the Harveys’ turf? Are you in it together with Henry? I want to call the cops.”
Wilda snapped out of Lalaland of romance. She had been wearing a pendant around her neck that was
among her aunt’s inheritance. Although Wilda thought it was hideous and served no function, she could
tell from her grandfather’s urging face that it was important.
She had her suspicion that Noah and Madeline sneaked into the Harvey residence for this pendant.
Wilda grabbed the phone to call the cops. Winova and Canary wanted to stop her but since Noah and
Madeline did not seem to mind, the Harvey siblings let Wilda be.
Noah and Madeline were always ready with popcorn, not at all worried the whole thing would blow up
in their faces.
“We’re here to celebrate Shane’s birthday. Shane personally gave the invitation to my man. Do you
have a problem with it, Ms. Harvey?” Madeline took a peek at Wilda’s phone. As she suspected, Wilda
never made the phone call.
Lone Wolf stole Wilda’s necklace, so it had nothing to do with them. Wilda’s attempt to get the police
involved would only reflect poorly on the Harvey family and rub Noah the wrong way. It would not solve
any issues.
Now that her mind was clear, Wilda was not foolish. The threat to call the cops was an attempt to throw
Madeline and Noah into a fluster.
It was a shame that Madeline and Noah had been through a lot in their lifetime, and this did not scare
them.
Wilda bit her lip and pulled a pouting look at Noah. It was as if she had the word “cheater” written on
her face.
“Mr. Quincy, must you do that to me? Is everything you told and did to me all a sham?”
Raising her brow, Madeline pinched Noah on the waist. Why didn’t I know you said something and did
something to her?
Noah restrained Madeline’s torturing hand and whispered in her ear amid chuckles, “I can repeat every
word to you if you want to know. You know I have a good memory.”
Madeline pursed her lips, hinting at her disinterest.
Wilda scrunched her face in rage, not having it that the pair flirted around as if Wilda was nothing. Still,
she did not lose her mind. “I don’t blame you for saying so in her presence. I will keep my end of the
bargain and advance to Imperia in two days. I will give you what you want then.”
The slight change on Noah’s face almost went unnoticed. Madeline curiously looked at him, motioning
him to explain what was going on. However, Noah did not budge and pretended like nothing ever
happened.
Now that she got what she wanted, Wilda stopped wasting time with them. She would only be
embarrassing herself by getting all over them anyway.
While walking past Madeline, Wilda stopped in her tracks and pulled out a jewelry box from her
handbag. She opened the box to reveal an amethyst necklace. It was a new collection from a certain
international brand worth millions.
“Sean wanted to buy this for you, Ms. Grant, but he didn’t have enough. He wanted to get a loan from
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmme, but I’m not too close with him. Plus, I don’t like you. Mr. Quincy was nice to lend him two million
dollars before tricking all his fortune to buy the necklace back. You should cherish it, Ms. Grant.”
Wilda pried open Madeline’s palm to stuff the necklace to her.
She ran a background check on Madeline when Noah first publicly introduced his wife. Wilda knew that
Madeline was a strong and proud woman. Surely, she must be angry that Noah bankrupted Sean out of
jealousy.
Wilda would get a chance to steal Noah if the couple got into a fight.
Only now, Wilda did not just want Noah because she had feelings for him. It had more to do with
revenge. She wanted to crush them and make them beg for their lives.
“Thank you, Ms. Harvey, for purchasing the necklace for Sean. I will make his time worthwhile.”
Surprisingly, Madeline was not at all angry. In fact, she gleefully picked the necklace up for a closer
look.
Madeline then held the necklace up against Winova’s chest and said with a smile, “I think the color
suits you. What do you think of my gift to you?”
“Really?” Winova was thrilled. A three-million-dollar necklace was not major to her as her mother
owned a lot of jewelry that was worth a lot more.
However, her parents stopped her bank cards since Wilda joined the family. Winova was forced to be
self-reliant, so luxury items were no longer a necessity to her.
She even had to sneak jewelry from her mother to attend her grandfather’s birthday celebration.
“I thought you were special, but you’re just leeching off Mr. Quincy.” Seeing that Madeline was not
angry, Wilda took the rumors online as fake. Madeline was not independent and self-sufficient as the
