Aggressive Wife novel (Madeline and Noah)

Chapter 438 Past Experience

Noah stared at the photo on his phone, lost in thought. His mind drifted to more than ten years ago when he was only six years old.

Back then, his kind uncle had taken him to a seaside resort for a vacation. Once they entered the village, his uncle disappeared on the pretext of handling official business. Hence, Noah wandered alone on the beach as his bodyguards had disappeared. He encountered a group of children from the village who, for some reason, chose to attack him. They encircled him and began punching and kicking him violently.

When Noah had no strength to fight back, they dug a deep hole in the sand and buried him alive. The suffocating feeling of imminent death remained vivid in his mind. Just when he thought he was about to die, a pair of small hands scraped away the sand and pulled him out of the pit.

"Huh? Is it you? You're not my Little Flower." The girl looked at him with a momentary surprise, then a bit of disappointment.

Noah sat weakly beside the pit, staring at the calm sea. The little girl continued, "Little Flower is my dog; I thought they buried her too. Nathan and the others are so wicked. I don't know where they hid my dog. Will you come with me to find her?"

Without waiting for Noah's agreement, she took his hand and led him forward. The boy was worried the village children would do something nasty to him again. However, he had no choice but to follow the little girl as she held his hand tightly, and he could not break free.

Fortunately, the little girl seemed to be familiar with the resort, and she led Noah to some hidden but beautiful places. She wore a polaroid camera around her neck and took pictures of whatever caught her eye.

"Why did you take a picture of this ugly thing?" Noah pointed to the frog-like lump on the ground and asked in confusion.

The little girl smiled and replied, "It's not ugly; it's as good-looking as you."

Noah was rendered speechless by her reply. However, he kept silent as he suddenly remembered the bruises on his face.
