Aggressive Wife novel (Madeline and Noah)

Chapter 366 Let’s Visit The Sick, Daddy

"Madeline." He reached out to take the cup of milk from her. She turned to leave after it was safely in his hands.

Noah was quick to grab onto her hand and pull her into his arms while keeping the cup from spilling in the other hand.

"Let go." Madeline braced herself against his chest to keep some distance between them.

He released her out of fear of her anxiety spiking but he remained blocking the way back into the elevator. He didn't want her to leave.

"This is what I get for helping out?" He grumbled before skipping downstairs to share the gossip with Elise and find out just who was gaming with her.

Elise, however, was a stubborn woman who refused to kiss and tell no matter how many times he was on the phone with her.

Noah, meanwhile, kept an eye on Madeline as he drank the offered milk as if he were afraid that she would disappear on him.

"I'm not asking you to pay me back." He set down his cup and sat down beside her.

She had gotten into a knee-length skirt moments earlier. His knee bumping into her own cued her in on how his body temperature was much higher than hers.
