Chapter 397 Noah Has a Fever

"That's my boy, Colt." Madeline gave Colton a peck on his cheek. The young boy went very red in the face as he felt his father's eyes on him.

"Come down. You're going to get Mommy's clothes dirty too," Noah said in a slightly stern tone.

Colton waited for Madeline to put him down. However, Madeline continued walking while holding him. "Don't mind your father. I'll take you to the bathroom."

"Are you going to bathe him? He's not a baby anymore!" Noah complained as he followed behind her.

"I know he's not a baby anymore, but he's only five! It's not like he's a fifteen-year-old boy!" Madeline rolled her eyes.

Noah reached out and took Colton from her arms. "I'll do it. You should respect a young boy's privacy."

Madeline wasn't planning on giving Colton a bath in the first place. All three of her kids had learned to do simple chores independently at a young age. Even Mackenzie could take a shower on her own since she was four. Madeline was only going to help prepare the bathwater and a fresh set of clothes for Colton.

However, she did not explain all that, nor did she try to stop Noah. "Then, send Colt to the study to copy the passage just like Thomas after he's bathed. Don't yell at him anymore."

"Alright." Noah held Colton securely with one arm. Then, he headed upstairs in long, quick strides.

Madeline let out a small sigh. How could he be so harsh toward his own son…

After that, Madeline went back to her room to take a shower since her clothes got dirty as well.

While she was washing, Madeline suddenly felt extremely light-headed. She fell onto the floor the next instant.

She was still conscious as she lay on the cold, tiled bathroom floor. She tried to open her mouth to call for help, but she couldn't muster any strength in her body.
