Aggressive Wife novel (Madeline and Noah)

Chapter 296 Scheming Suzette

Madeline's cheeks reddened as she hurriedly backed away from the sofa. "I was just testing out…"

"What man would take that for a joke?" Noah turned around, despondent. The sight of him standing by the window walls made him seem forlorn.

She felt guilty for his predicament. Her approach had been drastic. She had gone with stimulating his mind instead of his body.

Noah's mind kept replaying the moment she leaned in to kiss him. The thought greatly excited him to the point his plot had nearly been laid bare.

"I'll make you some food?"

Madeline tried to change the topic in a subtle attempt at trying to make it up to him.

He tried to settle his turbulent emotions before turning around to answer her, "Dylan ordered takeout. It should be here soon."

In truth, he did want to eat her cooking, but Dylan was fussy when it came to his kitchen. The man had even threatened to expose his ploy to Madeline if they wreaked havoc in his kitchen.

Madeline was more than aware of what her cooking was like and didn't force it.

"Uh, have you prepared your suit for the charity gala?"

"I thought my wife would've prepared something for me. You promised."

Noah was well-versed in the art of acting. Even if Madeline came to realize it was all an act, she wouldn't be able to resist the hopeful look in his eyes.

It was no exaggeration to say she would willingly pluck stars out of the sky if he asked for one.

"I left it in the car. I'll go get it." Her demeanor turned frosty.

Noah caught onto her changed demeanor. He knew her well. Pushing her too hard would only backfire on him.

He shook his head. "Have the servant go. You've had a busy morning. Take a break."
