Chapter 80

"You're being mean, Maddie! You let go of my dove? If you don't tell me why, I won't talk to you for a week, no, a month!"

Elise immediately knew something was up for Madeline to suddenly free the bird and was eager to throw a hissy fit just to get to the bottom of it.

"It's not like I wanted to but that difficult person is in my house and won't leave. I didn't have a choice!"

Madeline was already stuck with a headache and could only reply bitterly through gritted teeth from being threatened by Elise's penchant for whining.

"What? Noah's at your place?! Didn't he already say he had no feelings for you? You aren't going to go back to him now are you?"

Elise was currently busying herself with sewing the wedding dress. Her friend's words had her nearly stabbing herself with the needle.

Her need for gossip was clear in her bright, almond eyes.

She wanted to inquire further only for Madeline to cut in.

"I'm hanging up."

Madeline was left speechless.

Going back to him?

Who knows whether or not he's trying to get back with me.

Noah was nestled in bed with his eyes closed and pretending to be asleep. He could hear the woman's every movement.

Joy overtook him to know that she would brush even Elise off for him…

"I don't feel too good, Ms. Madeline. I don't know if my injury has worsened. Can you help me redo my bandages?"

Madeline was reclined on a soft chair with brows furrowed. Her soulful eyes were filled with great resentment. She had just been thinking about how best to hide away when his deep voice caught her attention.

His voice was filled with an innate charm and when tinged with weakness, tugged at heartstrings.
