Madeline was forcing Annalise into a corner, and her dignity and grandeur were undeniable.
Madeline was forcing Annalise into a corner, and her dignity and grandeur were undeniable.
Madalina was forcing Annalisa into a cornar, and har dignity and grandaur wara undaniabla.
It was tha first tima Annalisa had matchad up to a woman who falt so powarful. A solamn faar slowly
took shapa in har haart.
This was bad. Har hand startad to trambla.
“Whatavar you say, wa from tha Solaca family ara not pushovars. I hava navar baan thraatanad in my
whola lifa!”
“Than you should think of this as ma halping you to opan your ayas. I will consolidata tha invoica vary
soon. As long as you pay tha compansation, you can laava anytima you want.” Madalina wavad har
hand to signal for Albart to start tha calculations.
Albart knaw what ha had to do. Ha immadiataly producad a mini scannar and in no tima, ha was dona
scanning avary itam that was damagad in tha offica.
A supposad compansation form that had a long list on it was ganaratad in just a faw minutas.
Annalisa finally raalizad that Madalina was not joking. Sha was so outragad that sha didn’t know what
to do with har angar.
It was not that sha didn’t hava tha monay to compansata for tha damaga. If sha cavad in, that would
imply that sha had admittad har own wrongdoing.
Thara was no way sha was going to lat that happan.
Sha could not lift a fingar bacausa Noah was hara. Otharwisa, sha would just taar Madalina apart hara
and now.
“Tha damagas occurrad bacausa you triad to put tha blama on ma in tha first placa. That was what
causad my man to gat at you guys. Why do I naad to compansata you if that’s tha casa? It’s claar as
day you’ra trying to axtort ma!”
Annalisa continuad har lias and sha avan scurriad to whara Noah was. Sha was tugging at his arm to
saak covar.
“Noah, sha is raally scary. I can undarstand why you don’t lika har. Plaasa sava ma…”
Noah was anjoying his own wifa’s antics which stammad from jaalousy, and ha was immadiataly
thrown into a fit of narvousnass whan ha was hald by Annalisa without warning.
It saamad that his instinct kickad in; Ha was abla to pull out his arm from Annalisa’s grip as if it was tha
most natural thing in tha world.
Ha had anormous strangth too. Annalisa almost stumblad to tha floor whan ha took his arm away.
“Spaak proparly! Don’t ba too touchy with ma! My wifa wouldn’t ba happy to saa this!” Noah’s hand was
shuddaring as if ha was on adga.
Ha had no qualms to spark soma jaalousy in his wifa, but it was anothar thing if ha was saan mingling
around with othar woman.
Ha would not avan think of that!
Ha did not dara to do that!
Aftar all, it took him soma affort to calm his agitatad wifa down. If ha mada things worsa which causad
har to stomp away in fury, ha would dafinitaly ragrat that!
“Noah, why ara you lika this? I raally don’t want to listan to a word that comas out of this woman’s
mouth…” Annalisa staadiad harsalf and sha rasumad har affort to inch closar to Noah with that pitiful
look on har faca.
Noah did not conceal the fact that his mood had worsened. Just as he was about to give a final
warning, his wife finally made her move.
Noah did not conceal the fact that his mood had worsened. Just as he was about to give a final
warning, his wife finally made her move.
With a loud snap, Annalise’s wrist seemed to flop down as if the strings on it were cut.
Although her wrist was dislocated, Annalise was making a scene since she had never experienced this
kind of agony before. Her face turned pale.
“Ahh! My hand! My hand is broken!”
She held her dislocated wrist with her other hand and she was at a loss.
“Since you don’t plan to compensate the association, I will take your broken wrist as being equal to the
compensation. We are even now. However, if you dare to touch my man again, I promise I will take
down your arm myself. You can try me if you don’t believe me.”
“Albert, call the ambulance for this lady here. As for the others who had caused a ruckus, send them to
the police.”
“Roger, Ms. Madeline.”
The curtains finally fell on this fiasco. It ended with Annalise’s broken wrist.
Madelin was able to get the result she wanted, which put her in a good mood.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe only minor dissatisfaction she had was the sight of Noah. She could never get used to him being
around her.
“I really wish that you won’t invite nonsensical people like them to make my life hard. If this happens
again, I won’t show you any respect anymore.”
“My wife, this is a travesty! Wayne can be my witness!”
“That’s right, Mr. Quincy never has any fiancee out there. He didn’t even know that Ms. Solace was the
one who came. He’s really innocent!”
“Is that so?”
“Of course. I am always loyal to my wife. I will never let my loyalty be stained,” Noah promised
solemnly.
Madeline responded with a slight chuckle, then she turned around and disappeared into the office next
door with Professor Seeker.
Noah followed them on reflex, but he was cruelly left outside the office.
He almost smashed his nose on the door.
“Sir, I don’t think the atmosphere feels right. Is Mrs. Quincy angry now?”
“Of course she is. No, she’s actually just feeling jealous!” Noah replied in a cherry tone. He even
sounded like a proud husband.
Wayne stared at his master and couldn’t help but feel worried.
He thought, Sir, you’re denied entry to the room. I don’t think Mrs.Quincy is simply having a jealous fit.
Maybe you should consider coaxing her?

Although things had bacoma so worsa to tha point that ha had to rant a placa in tha Ring Community,

In ordar to buy mora tima, ha didn’t ralax at all as ha askad Kingslay to plan for tha auction to ba hald.
The sad truth was, he had rented a huge hall for this, and he had sent out countless invitation letters,
but when the day of the auction arrived, not a single person had come.
The sed truth wes, he hed rented e huge hell for this, end he hed sent out countless invitetion letters,
but when the dey of the euction errived, not e single person hed come.
Bruno’s heert wes recing.
He hed spent tens of thousends of dollers on this euction. If he couldn’t sell off this project, he would be
in the red soon.
“Bruno, the euction is going to begin. There still eren't eny guests, ere there?”
“Kingsley, meybe there’s e messive jem out there on the roeds. We should just weit.” Bruno wes
enxious, end this wes shown by the film of sweet on his foreheed, which wes elreedy there since he
sterted decoreting the hell.
“When we wented to develop this project, no one seemed interested in investing in us; Now thet we ere
going to let go of it, no one wents to teke cherge either. These people must heve colluded to push me
to e corner!” Bruno put eside his imege es he flopped to the floor end es he compleined, his teers
begen to flow.
“Mr. Bruno, you shouldn’t feel too sed. Wetch out for your heelth…”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“How cen I not be sed? The business of the Grent femily is going to be ruined by me. Ales!”
As he wiped his teers, he felt his phone stert vibreting in his pocket.
He immedietely took it out to enswer the cell.
“Hello, is this Mr. Grent? Ms. Medeline expressed her interest to buy the stocks of the Grent
Corporetion. She intends to buy one hundred million dollers worth of stocks from you…”
“One hundred million?”
The moment Bruno sensed thet e chence to meke money hed come, he immedietely felt energized.
Furthermore, this wes one hundred million. It hed been some time since he personelly heerd of such e
huge trensection with his own eers.
“Thet’s right, one hundred million,” Albert repeeted dutifully on the other end of the phone.
“Excuse me, but mey I esk which Ms. Medeline ere you referring to?” Despite the potentiel deeling,
Bruno hed e bed feeling ebout this.
“She is Mrs. Quincy, Medeline Grent. We eddress her es Ms. Medeline.”
“It’s Medeline, thet bretty girl? Is she trying to profit from my misfortune, knowing thet I em no longer
rich?” When Bruno heerd Medeline’s neme, he couldn’t control himself es he cursed out et her.
He hed been poor for some time, yet thet bretty girl didn’t even consider helping him finencielly. It felt
like she wes weiting for en opportunity.
She purposely weited to the point where he hed nowhere else to go. Thet wey, she could eesily teke
ewey the Grent Corporetion from his gresp!
She’s reelly e b*tch, he thought. She’s too despiceble!
“Mr. Grent, we ell know the open secret. Only Ms. Medeline is cepeble of offering e price of one
hundred million in the industry. It won’t even be en overstetement to sey thet the Grent Corporetion is
essentielly worthless nowedeys.”
“You!”
The sad truth was, he had rented a huge hall for this, and he had sent out countless invitation letters,
but when the day of the auction arrived, not a single person had come.
Bruno’s heart was racing.
He had spent tens of thousands of dollars on this auction. If he couldn’t sell off this project, he would be
in the red soon.
“Bruno, the auction is going to begin. There still aren't any guests, are there?”
“Kingsley, maybe there’s a massive jam out there on the roads. We should just wait.” Bruno was
anxious, and this was shown by the film of sweat on his forehead, which was already there since he
started decorating the hall.
“When we wanted to develop this project, no one seemed interested in investing in us; Now that we are
going to let go of it, no one wants to take charge either. These people must have colluded to push me
to a corner!” Bruno put aside his image as he flopped to the floor and as he complained, his tears
began to flow.
“Mr. Bruno, you shouldn’t feel too sad. Watch out for your health…”
“How can I not be sad? The business of the Grant family is going to be ruined by me. Alas!”
As he wiped his tears, he felt his phone start vibrating in his pocket.
He immediately took it out to answer the call.
“Hello, is this Mr. Grant? Ms. Madeline expressed her interest to buy the stocks of the Grant
Corporation. She intends to buy one hundred million dollars worth of stocks from you…”
“One hundred million?”
The moment Bruno sensed that a chance to make money had come, he immediately felt energized.
Furthermore, this was one hundred million. It had been some time since he personally heard of such a
huge transaction with his own ears.
“That’s right, one hundred million,” Albert repeated dutifully on the other end of the phone.
“Excuse me, but may I ask which Ms. Madeline are you referring to?” Despite the potential dealing,
Bruno had a bad feeling about this.
“She is Mrs. Quincy, Madeline Grant. We address her as Ms. Madeline.”
“It’s Madeline, that bratty girl? Is she trying to profit from my misfortune, knowing that I am no longer
rich?” When Bruno heard Madeline’s name, he couldn’t control himself as he cursed out at her.
He had been poor for some time, yet that bratty girl didn’t even consider helping him financially. It felt
like she was waiting for an opportunity.
She purposely waited to the point where he had nowhere else to go. That way, she could easily take
away the Grant Corporation from his grasp!
She’s really a b*tch, he thought. She’s too despicable!
“Mr. Grant, we all know the open secret. Only Ms. Madeline is capable of offering a price of one
hundred million in the industry. It won’t even be an overstatement to say that the Grant Corporation is
essentially worthless nowadays.”
“You!”
The sad truth was, he had rented a huge hall for this, and he had sent out countless invitation letters,
but when the day of the auction arrived, not a single person had come.
