Aggressive Wife novel (Madeline and Noah)

Chapter 497 Still Going up the Mountain?

"Mr. Lucas, please leave!" Mia stood up and pointed to the door, ignoring the obstruction of her grandparents.

Lucas's face turned pale. He hesitated for a while, stared at Mia for a long time, then turned and walked towards the door.

"Mia, what are you doing? How can you be so rude to our guests?" David came forward and held Lucas. "Don't mind her. She sometimes has a bad temper. She's not usually like this..."

"Grandpa, I resigned. He is no longer my boss," Mia said, seeing David forcing a smile at Lucas, which only made her more agitated. She went up to him and shoved him.

Lone Wolf stood on the side, eating noodles and watching the commotion. When the three children wanted to break it up, he held them back and said, "Be careful not to burn your pretty faces."

Madeline glared at Lone Wolf, pulled Lucas behind her and said to David, "I'm sorry, my friend doesn't speak very well. He had something else to do today, so you don't need to keep him here."

After speaking, she gestured to Elise, who quickly pulled Lucas up.

The courtyard returned to its peace. Cicadas on the tree were screaming their heads off, making everyone annoyed.

David squatted on the side of the courtyard, smoking a cigarette, while Sofia wiped her tears with her sleeve and sobbed softly.

Madeline pulled Mia aside and said softly, "Your grandparents are the closest people to you. They may have already figured it out."

Mia's eyes turned red instantly, and she stubbornly raised her head, refusing to let her tears fall.

Madeline comforted her by putting his arm around her shoulder and said, "Don't punish yourself and your loved ones for the fault of others. It's not worth it."

"I don't want to. I've been trying to forget, but I can't," Mia crouched down, burying her face in her knees and crying silently.
