Chapter 40

Madeline's heart skipped a beat as soon as Noah said those words.

She quickly regained her composure, and when she looked up, she smiled lightly and said, "Of course, I know. It's because I care about Colton, so I did my homework."

Madeline was changing the subject deliberately, and Noah stood there quietly watching her put on a show, not believing a word she said.

"Really? Nobody in the outside world is aware that Colt is allergic to ginger. You are extremely resourceful."

"You're probably just overconfident in your security measures." Madeline smiled sweetly but with a hint of malice.

Noah looked at her, wanting to say something, but the medical staff rushed in nervously.

"Ms. Grant! Your wound is open!"

"Prepare a bandage right away!"

For a while, the scene became chaotic as the doctor and nurses checked and bandaged Madeline.

Madeline looked up after having her wound re-bandaged and noticed Noah had already left.

She sighed but immediately frowned.

Noah was beginning to doubt her identity!

If he didn't intend to test her, he wouldn't have come here in the middle of the night.

Her response was also riddled with errors and inconsistencies because she was shocked to think clearly after learning about Thomas' allergies. Even if Noah had no doubts before, she could well have planted doubts today.

She needed to make more headway quickly!

The ward quickly quieted down, and Madeline noticed an unread message on the phone, which Albert had sent.

She simply did not want to remain in the ward any longer.
