Aggresive Wife

Chapter 573

CHAPTER 573 COSTUME PARTY

Olivia was furious and took to the internet to hurl dozens of insults at Madeline.

However, times have changed and Madeline now has a sterling reputation as a kind-hearted philanthropist and brave hero. Olivia's incessant attacks were clearly meant to provoke public outrage.

As a result, Olivia was targeted by online mobs. People exposed her identity as the daughter of a corrupt official with a scandalous personal life. They then arranged to meet her in person and cornered her in a dark alley, pelting her with rotten eggs.

Further investigations by the online community revealed that Olivia had harbored a secret crush on Noah, which explained her years-long campaign of hatred against Madeline.

It was a vicious and petty act to sustain such a grudge for so long, especially since Madeline had never even met her before.

"Mr. Quincy, I know it was all your doing. If you have the guts, just kill me already! I only insulted your wife a little bit, and you're trying to ruin my life! You're a devil, and you'll get what's coming to you!" Olivia was at her wits' end, and she started cursing at Noah.

Then, she received a letter from Noah's lawyer.

When Mrs. Dawson saw it, she slapped her daughter across the face. "What more do you want to stir up? You've already destroyed our family. What else do you want to do?" she scolded.

"They were the ones who wronged us first. They deliberately targeted us!"

"If you didn't provoke Mrs. Quincy, how could our family have been targeted?"

Olivia was confused. How could it be her fault? It was clearly Madeline, that wretched woman. She must have been whispering in Mr. Quincy's ear, which is why he went after their family.

Olivia's scandal was like a passing breeze, causing a stir within the Dawson household and failing to generate much buzz online. In fact, many people even expressed envy toward Madeline and continued their daily routine of bashing others.

People began to wonder what it takes to find a chivalrous and handsome man like Mr. Quincy, who stands up for his wife no matter what.

True to form, Mr. Quincy exuded an aura of dominance and confidence.

Madeline showed no sympathy towards Olivia's fate, as she believed that if Mr. Dawson and Olivia hadn't done what they did, Noah wouldn't have been able to catch them.

So, in a way, they got what they deserved.

"Maddie, am I not trying hard enough?" Noah asked, looking at Madeline's belly with a hint of disappointment.

Ever since Natalia called her "Maddie" that day, Noah started calling her that too, and he did it in a really cheesy way that made Madeline's skin crawl every time.

"Believe me, you've already put in a lot of effort," Madeline didn't want to spend another day lying in bed.

Thomas had been pacing outside the door for several rounds, asking her why she wasn't coming out, making her feel embarrassed and flustered.

"How come it's not sprouting? Seems like my skills aren't good enough, I need to practice more," Noah said as he moved in closer.

Madeline quickly pressed her arms against his chest, "No, I'm tired." Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

"Maddie, just one more time, please?"

"You don't have to call me that, it's so gross," Madeline said as she pushed him away.

Noah, like a big dog, kept trying to nuzzle into her chest. "But Natalia calls you that, and you don't think it's gross?"

"She's a girl, can it be the same?"

"How come you don't feel the same way about me? In your heart, I'm not as important as she is?" Noah sounded upset.

"Not going to talk about it with you. I need to get up, otherwise, Thomas will come and get me again later." Madeline said, trying to lift the blanket off.

Noah hugged Madeline and the blanket together in his arms, "Can you stay home with me today? I've

been exhausted lately."

"Two days ago you said the same thing," Madeline said, exasperated.

"But I'm so tired every day," Noah blinked his eyes which were very similar to Thomas, his cuteness was irresistible.

"But I'm also very tired," Madeline gave up resisting and wearily closed her eyes.

Noah noticed Madeline's tone had softened, so he reached his hand into her embrace, "So I'll do the work myself and spare you the trouble."

"I'm tired even if I don't do anything," Madeline said, ignoring him.

"You've been distant with me lately," Noah said, lying flat beside her.

Noah had a "please come and comfort me" expression on his face as if he were upset.

Madeline found it amusing and pinched his nose while saying, "So not wanting to have sex with you means I'm being cold to you?"

"You used to be passionate like fire, but now you're always urging me to hurry up and finish, you're impatient," Noah explained. It was one of those things that only the people involved could truly understand.

Noah felt more and more wronged as he thought about it.

Madeline chuckled, "Mr. Quincy, have you ever suspected that it's your speed that's not up to par? You need to exercise this old waist of yours."

"I'll show you right now if I can do it," Noah said and pounced on her.

Laughter filled the room, but Colton had enough and pulled Thomas out with him.

Thomas grumbled, "I haven't seen mommy for days now. Daddy is being too controlling, he wants to keep mommy all to himself. I won't allow it!"

"I don't agree either!" Mackenzie chimed in.

Colton rubbed his forehead with a slight headache, "Didn't I tell you before? Daddy and Mommy are having a baby sister for you."

"But Mommy's already taken away before the baby sister is born, so why bother having one?" Thomas said stubbornly.

This time, Mackenzie didn't agree with him because she really wanted to have a little sister.

Boys and girls are different, and they like to play with different things. Every time Thomas dragged Colton out to play, she was left behind because she couldn't run fast enough.

If she had a little sister, she could play with her.

"Do you really not want a little sister? If you say that, she will be hurt when she knows about it." Colton said seriously.

Thomas sneakily glanced toward the door of his parent's room but then decided to let it go. After all, he was the big brother and couldn't possibly be petty like a little sister.

"Daddy is taking Mommy out to this place tonight, let's go too," Thomas quickly moved on from his dilemma and started plotting mischief.

Colton glanced at the ticket, it was for a bar. They were too young to go to a bar.

Thomas didn't even give him a chance to argue and snatched the ticket from his hand, making plans to leave at a certain time with Mackenzie.

Later that night, Noah, who had been messing around with Madeline in bed all day, got dressed and stood before her looking refreshed. Madeline gave him a glare and didn't even have the strength to lift a finger.

"Do you want to skip it?" Noah asked, feeling sorry for her exhausted state.

"No, I have to go! If I stay at home any longer, I'll start to mold," Madeline struggled to sit up. There was a costume party at the bar tonight and the promotion looked interesting.

Elise had been calling her many times, urging her to go.

Madeline didn't have much interest at first, but after being nagged by Elise several times, she became somewhat interested. Besides, she really wanted to go out and have fun, especially with Noah.

She didn't want to look back on her youth and only remember the activities she had with Noah in bed.

So Madeline dressed up and went to the bar with Noah. Once inside, a pair of resentful eyes kept watching them, plotting yet another scheme.
