Chapter 145

All Bruno could think of at the moment was whether he could get Madeline to acknowledge him and whether he could be a father to the wife of the illustrious Noah Quincy. He hadn't even noticed his harsh hold on her had reopened her wounds.

He continued to chatter away despite her cries of pain.

"Where is your conscience, Madeline? You're my daughter. You are a Grant. You aren't going to just watch as the Grant family falls to ruin, are you?"

"You were always a good girl. How did you end up like this? You ungrateful child!"

"Are you listening to me?" He kept tugging away at her arm, leaving her gasping.

"Let go of me or you'll be sorry!" Madeline spat out in her pained delirium.

"I'll be sorry, is it? You think Mr. Quincy is going to protect you now? You don't recognize me, you little b*tch?!"

Bruno was a raging lunatic who was more than ready to harm her but before he could, someone grabbed him by his arm.

"Tell me, Mr. Grant, what has my wife done wrong for you to come barging into her home to assault her?" Noah's commanding voice immediately had him cowering.

"Ah, you're here, Mr. Quincy. I was just having a chat with my daughter. It's nothing…" Bruno cheerfully explained.

Noah's hold was as rough as being caught between iron pliers. His arm had gone numb from the pain, but he couldn't shake him off either and could only hold on.

"You're quite an amazing man, Mr. Grant. To think you can injure her arm even while chatting."

Noah carefully took her injured arm into his hand. His gaze spelled his distress.

It was also at this time that Bruno realized that there was a gauze wrapped around her arm, which was now completely soaked in blood!
