Chapter 33

Noah watched as Madeline strutted into the lift in her stilettos. There was something sensual about her that left more to be desired.

He experienced a hitch in his breath.

By the time he got a grip on himself, Noah was met with Angie’s tearful eyes and discolored face. He peevishly furrowed his brows.

“Angie, what do you have to say for yourself about the charity dinner?”

“Noah, I don’t have a clear idea about the situation. I’m a victim too. You have to believe me!”

“Are you sure about that?”

“I can swear on the future of my family that I know nothing about it! One of my employees must have something to do with it. I know how much your grandfather means to you. I would never do such a thing!”

Angie appeared honest and convincing.

It was a pity…

“I’ll get Wayne to arrange your stay abroad. Don’t come back until the whole thing dies down.”

“My stay abroad? Noah, I don’t want to go abroad. We’re going to get married, and the travel will put a brake on our wedding. I don’t want to leave you. I want to stay by your side.”

With her tears filling to the brim, Angie cautiously tugged on Noah’s sleeve and pleaded.

“Angie, the wedding’s off.”

The weight of Noah’s callous words came down Angie like a ton of bricks.

She felt her world crumbling down.

“Why? We have been doing fine. I have always raised Colt like my own over the years. Who else in the world but me can treat him right? The whole world is against me, and now you won’t believe me too?”

Angie panicked.

The mention of Colt only made Noah upset.
