Aggressive Wife novel (Madeline and Noah)

Chapter 362 I Think I’m Still In Love

Madeline and Noah shared similar thoughts. Trenton suffered a massive loss in Uranica. He would definitely beat a hasty retreat back to his home country before finding ways to get back at them.

They had to hurry back to get a head start.

What was going to happen with the virus still in his body if they all left? What awaited Noah was death if the drugs weren't administered.

"You should head back. Why don't I stay and wait for William?" Madeline asked.

Trenton still needed that special remedy even if he were to return to the country but William was currently imprisoned by Noah's men.

Their only shot now was for Madeline to remain here and use William to lure Trenton out of hiding. It would be best if Uranica's authorities carted him off to prison. Noah had to be rushed back to Imperia to make arrangements with the country. It was also a precaution in the case of Trenton's escape. That man could very well take advantage of Noah's illness to kill him.

Noah said nothing. He knew that it was for the best but he wasn't willing to send Madeline straight into danger. He also didn't want her to continue having any further contact with Xander.

"I'm more familiar with Uranica. Leaving me here is for the best. You need to return to Dylan's lab to get your illness treated. You'll be in danger until William develops that special remedy."

She advised softly when she noticed how reluctant he was acting.

"I'll stay. Wayne will handle everything back in Imperia." Noah put his foot down after a short moment of silence.

That set Madeline off. "Why are you being so difficult? You aren't well. Your best shot at survival comes down to you going home. You're completely defenseless if Trenton comes for you here!"

"If I'm defenseless, what are you? You already used your only trump card against him. He's not going to hesitate."

"You don't understand. Trenton is not going to kill me!" She protested, but those were simply her own wishful thinking. Trenton was going to want her dead sooner or later but that day was not today.

He turned away from her grimly. "I've made up my mind."
