Aggressive Wife novel (Madeline and Noah)

Chapter 27

It’s the mysterious woman!

Noah did not agree to walk the red carpet with Angie despite her begging multiple times. How did that despicable woman end up by his side?

“Mr. Quincy’s partner looks beautiful!”

“Yes, they make a wonderful pair!”

“I heard the lady came in on a helicopter!”

“I wonder which family she belongs to. I’m so jealous!”

“She must be from a wealthy family, or she wouldn’t be mingling with Noah Quincy. He didn’t even oblige Ms. Grant on the red carpet!”

Angie was about to be driven crazy from all the unending chatter about Noah and the other woman. The bitch stole her money and was trying to steal her man now. How dare she?! She was raging with fury, yet unable to do anything except clench her fists angrily.

Damn Madeline! Why are all women named Madeline so hateful! Angie thought to herself. She wished she could go up to the woman and give her a tight slap on the cheek, making sure to scratch that beautiful skin of hers as well. However, she was well aware of the venue and circumstance she was in. She had to remain calm in front of all the media and cameras.

She quickly tamped down her anger, replacing it with a warm smile before she walked toward Noah Quincy. “Noah, you’re here! I thought you would take a while more,” she gently teased Noah as she moved to his side and put her arm through his, nudging Madeline out of the way.

Noah did not seem to mind her advance, so she felt emboldened. Like a young girl in love, her cheeks were flushed with a pink tint as she held onto Noah’s arm just a little tighter. She made sure to turn around to catch the woman left behind.
