Chapter 222: Chapter 222

Chapter 222 Madeline was forcing Annalise into a corner, and her dignity and grandeur were undeniable.

It was the first time Annalise had matched up to a woman who felt so powerful. A solemn fear slowly took shape in her heart.

This was bad. Her hand started to tremble.

“Whatever you say, we from the Solace family are not pushovers. I have never been threatened in my whole life!”

“Then you should think of this as me helping you to open your eyes. I will consolidate the invoice very soon. As long as you pay the compensation, you can leave anytime you want.” Madeline waved her hand to signal for Albert to start the calculations.

Albert knew what he had to do. He immediately produced a mini scanner and in no time, he was done scanning every item that was damaged in the office.

A supposed compensation form that had a long list on it was generated in just a few minutes.

Annalise finally realized that Madeline was not joking. She was so outraged that she didn’t know what to do with her anger.

It was not that she didn’t have the money to compensate for the damage. If she caved in, that would imply that she had admitted her own wrongdoing.

There was no way she was going to let that happen.

She could not lift a finger because Noah was here. Otherwise, she would just tear Madeline apart here and now.

“The damages occurred because you tried to put the blame on me in the first place. That was what caused my men to get at you guys. Why do I need to compensate you if that’s the case? It’s clear as day you’re trying to extort me!”

Annalise continued her lies and she even scurried to where Noah was. She was tugging at his arm to seek cover.

“Noah, she is really scary. I can understand why you don’t like her. Please save me...

W Noah was enjoying his own wife’s antics which stemmed from jealousy, and he was immediately thrown into a fit of nervousness when he was held by Annalise without warning.

It seemed that his instinct kicked in; He was able to pull out his arm from Annalise’s grip as if it was the most natural thing in the world.

He had enormous strength too. Annalise almost stumbled to the floor when he took his arm away.

“Speak properly! Don’t be too touchy with me! My wife wouldn’t be happy to see this!” Noah’s hand was shuddering as if he was on edge.

He had no qualms to spark some jealousy in his wife, but it was another thing if he was seen mingling around with other women.

He would not even think of that!

He did not dare to do that!

After all, it took him some effort to calm his agitated wife down. If he made things worse which caused her to stomp away in fury, he would definitely regret that!

“Noah, why are you like this? I really don’t want to listen to a word that comes out of this woman’s mouth...” Annalise steadied herself and she resumed her effort to inch closer to Noah with that pitiful look on her face.

Noah did not conceal the fact that his mood had worsened. Just as he was about to give a final warning, his wife finally made her move.

With a loud snap, Annalise’s wrist seemed to flop down as if the strings on it were cut.

Although her wrist was dislocated, Annalise was making a scene since she had never experienced this kind of agony before. Her face turned pale.

“Ahh! My hand! My hand is broken!”

She held her dislocated wrist with her other hand and she was at a loss.

“Since you don’t plan to compensate the association, I will take your broken wrist as being equal to the compensation. We are even now. However, if you dare to touch my man again, I promise I will take down your arm myself. You can try me if you don’t believe me.”

“Albert, call the ambulance for this lady here. As for the others who had caused a ruckus, send them to the police.”

“Roger, Ms. Madeline.”

The curtains finally fell on this fiasco. It ended with Annalise’s broken wrist.

Madelin was able to get the result she wanted, which put her in a good mood.

The only minor dissatisfaction she had was the sight of Noah. She could never get used to him being around her.

“I really wish that you won’t invite nonsensical people like them to make my life hard. If this happens again, I won’t show you any respect anymore.”

“My wife, this is a travesty! Wayne can be my witness!’

“That’s right, Mr. Quincy never has any fiancee out there. He didn’t even know that Ms. Solace was the one who came. He’s really innocent!”

“Is that so?”

“Of course. I am always loyal to my wife. I will never let my loyalty be stained,” Noah promised solemnly.

Madeline responded with a slight chuckle, then she turned around and disappeared into the office next door with Professor Seeker.

Noah followed them on reflex, but he was cruelly left outside the office.

He almost smashed his nose on the door.

“Sir, I don’t think the atmosphere feels right. Is Mrs. Quincy angry now?”

“Of course she is. No, she’s actually just feeling jealous!” Noah replied in a cherry tone. He even sounded like a proud husband.

Wayne stared at his master and couldn’t help but feel worried.

He thought, Sir, you’re denied entry to the room. I don’t think Mrs. Quincy is simply having a jealous fit. Maybe you should consider coaxing her?

Bruno needed cash flow for two of his real estate businesses, so he had been lowering his prices way beyond the market price.

In just one night, he was able to rake in ten million dollars in cash.

Although things had become so worse to the point that he had to rent a place in the Ring Community, he still felt more at ease with that money in his pocket.

In order to buy more time, he didn’t relax at all as he asked Kingsley to plan for the auction to be held.

The sad truth was, he had rented a huge hall for this, and he had sent out countless invitation letters, but when the day of the auction arrived, not a single person had come.

Bruno’s heart was racing.

He had spent tens of thousands of dollars on this auction. If he couldn’t sell off this project, he would be in the red soon.

“Bruno, the auction is going to begin. There still aren’t any guests, are there?”

“Kingsley, maybe there’s a massive jam out there on the roads. We should just wait.” Bruno was anxious, and this was shown by the film of sweat on his forehead, which was already there since he started decorating the hall.

“When we wanted to develop this project, no one seemed interested in investing in us; Now that we are going to let go of it, no one wants to take charge either. These people must have colluded to push me to a corner!” Bruno put aside his image as he flopped to the floor and as he complained, his tears began to flow.

“Mr. Bruno, you shouldn’t feel too sad. Watch out for your health...”

“How can I not be sad? The business of the Grant family is going to be ruined by Alas!”

As he wiped his tears, he felt his phone start vibrating in his pocket.

He immediately took it out to answer the call.

“Hello, is this Mr. Grant? Ms. Madeline expressed her interest to buy the stocks of the Grant Corporation. She intends to buy one hundred million dollars worth of stocks from you...”

“One hundred million?”

The moment Bruno sensed that a chance to make money had come, he immediately felt energized.

Furthermore, this was one hundred million. It had been some time since he personally heard of such a huge transaction with his own ears.

“That’s right, one hundred million,” Albert repeated dutifully on the other end of the phone.

“Excuse me, but may I ask which Ms. Madeline are you referring to?” Despite the potential dealing, Bruno had a bad feeling about this.

“She is Mrs. Quincy, Madeline Grant. We address her as Ms. Madeline.”

“It’s Madeline, that bratty girl? Is she trying to profit from my misfortune, knowing that I am no longer rich?” When Bruno heard Madeline’s name, he couldn’t control himself as he cursed out at her.

He had been poor for some time, yet that bratty girl didn’t even consider helping him financially. It felt like she was waiting for an opportunity.

She purposely waited to the point where he had nowhere else to go. That way, she could easily take away the Grant Corporation from his grasp!

She’s really a b*tch, he thought. She’s too despicable!

“Mr. Grant, we all know the open secret. Only Ms. Madeline is capable of offering a price of one hundred million in the industry. It won’t even be an overstatement to say that the Grant Corporation is essentially worthless nowadays.”

“You!”
