Aggressive Wife novel (Madeline and Noah)

Chapter 442 Why Did You Save Me?

"The Quinton Corporation's secrets are stashed away in your drawer. I've been wrongly charged with betraying the Quinton Corporation, even though I had nothing to do with it. I might have lost my life if I had."

Madeline gave a coquettish grunt while pouting her lips.

"Are you trying to bring up the past? What's mine is now yours. You are free to take what you want. I'll rip anyone's tongue out if they dare to speak nonsense."

Noah's initially amusing expression changed to one of seriousness.

Madeline frequently made jokes about their misunderstanding from five years prior, but Noah always felt guilty and heartbroken whenever it was brought up.

"Alright, let's make pancakes. The kids are waiting."

Madeline had found the answer she was looking for. She stopped verbally teasing Noah, and her expression returned to its previous icy state.

Despite being a little disappointed, Noah was ecstatic about having managed to have such a peaceful conversation with Madeline.

Madeline's cooking abilities, sadly, were not particularly impressive. Even though he had been guiding her remotely for more than an hour, the pancakes she made were still burned and salty. Madeline became irritable as a result of losing her patience.

Meanwhile, Noah was still enthusiastic, he said, "It's alright. Simply be more mindful of the temperature next time. You'll be able to do it successfully."

"Noah, are you doing this on purpose?" Madeline jerked her head up and glared at Noah on the screen.

Noah looked confused. He asked, "What?"

"Are you purposefully not instructing me correctly? Otherwise, how could I be incapable of doing something so simple?"

Madeline struggled to accept her incompetence. She was always able to pick up new knowledge faster than others, but she was unable to make a basic pancake. It was illogical in every way.

"You have zero faith in me."

Noah gave a bitter smile, his sharp eyes, which usually saw right through everything, were filled with grievance.

"All right, I'll stop learning it now. You can take a plane back and cook for them yourself."
