Chapter 375 Why Didn’t You Tell Me Earlier?
Madeline saw Noah in front of the washroom. However, Noah was shocked to see the middle-aged
woman with her daughter.
Suddenly, Madeline understood why Trenton had placed the bomb on the middle-aged woman. It
seemed that Noah knew her.
Madeline had a bad feeling. She blanked out for a second and accidentally bumped the waiter in front
of her.
Right then, Madeline caught a glimpse of the middle-aged woman. She was putting her hand into her
clothes.
Madeline’s heart skipped a beat.
"The target found out about the bomb!” Madeline apologized to the waiter in a hurry and whispered to
Noah.
The waiter took a look at Noah and saw that his gaze fell on the middle-aged woman’s waist. He
quickly turned around and walked away. It seemed that he was going to report the matter to his
superiors.
Madeline glanced at Noah and turned around too.
Noah did not notice Madeline when she bumped into the waiter just now. He was staring at the girl who
walked beside the middle-aged woman.
Even when people passed by, Noah did not glance up. He seemed distracted all of a sudden.
Madeline was confused. However, she had no idea who the girl and the woman were. She had never

Who are they?
Madeline was running out of time. She still had to dismantle the bomb inside the restaurant.
Luckily, Noah did not talk to the woman and the girl just now. Otherwise, she would be discovered.
At half past twelve at noon, thick layers of dark clouds occupied the sky and it seemed that it was going
to rain soon. The lights in the restaurant were switched on.
Madeline went to the kitchen and switched on all the high-power consumption appliances. Soon, the
restaurant blacked out.
Immediately, Madeline took out the night-vision glasses and found the bomb in the middle of the
restaurant. She then began to dismantle the bomb in a hurry.
Right then, Noah went back to the room. Albert came in with William too.
“Well, well. Mr. Quincy is indeed a man of his word.” The middle-aged man said and took out a bottle of
medicine and a pair of keys.
Albert asked William to take a look at the medicine, and William nodded after taking a glance at it.
It was indeed the special remedy Noah was looking for Madeline.
"The weapons are stored in the warehouse. Here are the keys. You can ask your men to collect them.”
Noah glanced at Albert.
Instantly, Albert knew what to do. He took the keys and went to the warehouse with some men.
Soon, gunshots were heard downstairs.
The middle-aged man glared at Noah ferociously. He then took out his gun and pointed it at Noah’s
head. However, before he could pull the trigger, Noah gave him a kick.
Then, a group of men broke into the room. Instead of fighting with Noah, they took William and ran
away. Only two stood at the door and started shooting at Noah.
Noah hid under the table. However, before he could shoot back, Madeline already shot them dead.
“Madeline!” Noah’s eyes lit up. He was excited to see her. He quickly stood up and walked out of the
room with her.
“I’ve dismantled the bomb in the restaurant, and I’ve asked Albert to take that woman away.”
Trenton’s men kept coming after Madeline and Noah. Madeline and Noah shot them one by one and
killed almost everyone at once.
“Noah!” Suddenly, a girl shouted.
Noah got distracted. He failed to shoot the man behind Madeline.
The bullet passed Madeline’s ear and left a deep cut on her face. Madeline thought she was going to
die. She quickly turned around and pulled the trigger on the man who shot her.
However, Noah did not come to her. He ran after the girl who was taken away by Trenton’s men
instead.
Somehow, Madeline’s shooting skills had improved. She shot her targets without a single miss.
After a while, Madeline took a glimpse at Noah again. He had saved the girl and held her in his arms.
“Go back to the car to dismantle the bomb. Leave it to me here!” Noah yelled over the earphones.
Without glancing back again, Madeline replied calmly. “We have bomb disposal experts in the car. You
retreat first. I’ll take care of everything here.”
“But I don't trust them…”
“What? You don’t trust the experts but me? Do you want me to die from the explosion too?”
“No, that’s not what I mean.”
“Noah, be careful. Go to the right. That’s the exit!” The girl kept screaming and Madeline could hear her
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmvoice clearly over the earphones.
Noah and the girl were near the exit. Madeline had no scruples and fired even more fiercely.
However, Trenton’s men kept coming and Madeline was fighting alone.
Luckily, Albert came with his men, and they were all skilfully trained. Instantly, Trenton’s men were
taken aback and they could not help retreating.
“Finish them and leave here as soon as possible,” ordered Madeline to Albert and his men.
Madeline was worried that Trenton would set up other traps. For that reason, she did not leave and
fought side by side with her people till the end.
It was not until they almost defeated Trenton’s men that Madeline called Noah. “Have you reached the
base? How are the kids?”
Earlier, Noah and Madeline had agreed that whoever retreated from the restaurant first would go back
to the base.
However, Noah did not reply and there was a long silence on the other end of the phone.
“Don’t worry. I have everything in the base under control. The kids will be fine.”
Hearing that, Madeline was nervous. She threw her earphones away and commanded everyone to
retreat at once. She had to go back to her children now.
On the way back to the base, Madeline’s eyes turned red. Tears welled up in her eyes.
”Ms. Madeline… ” Albert looked at her but was hesitant to speak.
“What’s wrong? Did something happen to Thomas and the kids at the base?” Madeline was worried.
“Thomas was worried about Noah, and he turned on Noah’s GPS just now and located his location.
However, Trenton’s men tracked him back and found the base.”
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Madeline stepped on the pedal and sped off.
What the hell is Noah doing? Trenton is going to the base now. How could he say that everything in the
base is under control?
