Chapter 146

Noah carefully removed her gauze, only for him to look up to find the woman furiously tapping away on her phone. There seemed to be a back-and-forth happening through texts. His expression grew dark. He couldn't help but exert more force than necessary with the cotton swab.

Madeline yelped in pain.

"Not so hard, Noah! It hurts!"

Noah didn't speak, but immediately after, he did it again.

She now knew he was doing it of his own volition and put away her phone with great displeasure. "Are you doing that on purpose, Noah? Are you trying to kill me so you can take my children away?"

"Correct me if I'm wrong, Ms. Madeline. Your children are also mine. They are a result of my efforts too, no?"

"What is wrong with you? I'm the victim here, and here you are picking on me. Are you having fun?"

"You're the wounded one. And yet here you are fiddling with your phone. Are you done?" Noah kept a stern expression, but no more "mistakes" happened.

A thought struck her. Was he suspicious of her contacting Andy?

I'm an adult. What was wrong with me sending a text?

It's not like I'm doing anything wrong.

Hold on, is this son of a b*tch jealous?

"Are you jealous, Noah?" Madeline was interested to know his answer.

For some reason, the negative atmosphere Bruno had brought with him had disappeared.

"Jealousy is an emotion only lowly creatures experience. Do you think that's something I experience?" Noah patiently cleaned the blood around her arm with more force than necessary.

Fortunately, he hadn't pressed down on the wound this time. She'd have wondered if he actually wanted her dead!

"Why are you speaking in such a shady way and hurting me on purpose then? I wonder who it was who claimed I was his wife and then went right back to referring to me as Ms. Madeline? Relationships can be so fickle!"
