Chapter 116

Dylan was about to collapse in a heap as Madeline watched with a confused expression.

Dylan's antique plate had been used for Noah's omelet?

She thought Noah had intentionally used the porcelain plate—what a jerk!

How could a priceless porcelain plate be shattered into smithereens if he hadn't just said, "spiked the food," to frighten her?

"I'm truly sorry. I was careless..."

Madeline's face flushed as she apologized. Although Noah was the main offender, she was the one who broke the plate.

She was about to come up with an excuse, but Dylan burst into tears before she could say anything.

"Maddie?"

"Boohoohoo…"

Madeline felt a little guilty as she looked at Dylan, who was crying uncontrollably.

Could this plate be an antique and a family heirloom?

Madeline glanced helplessly in Noah's direction, the actual offender, as she thought about this.

Noah stood there, not looking bothered in the least. He looked at her, all innocent, and gave her the most endearing smile.

Madeline became so enraged that she nearly exploded.

"Uh, don't be sad. I'll replace it with the exact same one. Okay?" Madeline couldn't bear seeing a grown man like Dylan cry dismally for so long, so she consoled him like a child, speaking tenderly to him.

However, Dylan didn't stop crying and even ran up to her and hugged her.

"Maddie, you've returned. Boohoohoo… I'm overjoyed!" Dylan wrapped his arms around Madeline and sobbed even harder.
