Chapter 63

"So, since you no longer like it, I'll take advantage of the opportunity to profit from it. Do you have anything to say about it, Maddie?"

"Up to you."

"I'll go back first. I won't be trying on the dress. My arm hurts. Just pack it up, and I'll take it with me."

"No worries!" Elise said as she went to get the dress she had prepared earlier.

The other outfit was something Madeline had ordered for Thomas, while the long dress was hers.

Madeline opened it and looked inside. She had always been pleased with Elise's designs.

However, when she put it away, she only took the adult one.

"Please deliver this kid-sized outfit to Noah for me and tell him it's my birthday present for Colton Quincy."

"Okay. I'll see to it that the task is completed!"

Albert's car had already arrived at the entrance when Madeline instructed Elise.

Elise escorted Madeline to the vehicle and went back inside after watching the vehicle leave.

"Is she gone?"

"Oh, Mr. Quincy! You came up behind me like this and scared the crap out of me!" Elise clutched her chest, feeling guilty and terrified. Even her face had turned pale.

She hadn't expected Noah to come to her.

Furthermore, he had made it clear that he already knew Madeline's true identity.

Madeline had arrived before she could question him. Then, Noah asked her to hide him!

This sequence of events had left her perplexed.

"You have yet to respond to my question. What is the cause of Madeline and Angie's enmity?" Instead of responding to her overblown emotions, Noah posed his own query to her.

"What qualms can exist between them both? It's nothing more than a deep resentment for having your husband stolen and the death of Gordon Quincy. I don't believe it was solely the resentment of having her husband stolen, though. You've also just heard it. Maddie isn't into you right now. It's been so many years since Gordon Quincy died, and all these years, you've been so close to the murderer. It's pointless, no matter what anyone says!"

"Did she tell you that?" Noah's entire being exuded a chilly aura as he looked at Elise.
