Chapter 175

Something about Joseph's low voice and the ominous weather made him look more menacing than he already did. Once Suzette saw him, she knew he was no savior but rather the devil incarnate.

"Stay- Stay away from me!" Suzette screamed in fear but quickly passed out from shock after that.

"I see that you're still useless after all these years." Joseph sighed. "Bring her home."

"Yes, sir!"

On the other hand, the rain continued to fall as Madeline, and the others returned to the Maple Forest Villa, giving Noah a perfect opportunity.

"Madeline, I know you're upset with me, but the rain's making it impossible, and I'm tired. Can't you let me rest for a while?" With puppy eyes, Noah pleaded at Madeline at the entrance.

"Fine, but we're leaving once the rain stops!" Madeline noticed Noah's pale face and reluctantly agreed to stay.

"Great." Noah beamed and was helped up the stairs by Dylan. Unable to hold back any longer, Noah spat out a mouthful of blood once they reached the second floor, shocking Dylan.

"Noah!"

"Shh, quiet. Don't let Madeline hear you."

"What happened? Why did you suddenly spit out blood?" Dylan asked as he recalled Noah was doing well following a prior checkup.
