Chapter 48 Noah didnât want to waste time, so he went straight to the point.
Bruno was caught off guard and paused for a long time as if mentally preparing.
Just as Noah was about to lose patience, Bruno knelt before him and pleaded, âMr. Quincy, please save the Grant family!â
Noah was surprised by Brunoâs move and cast a glance at Wayne.
Wayne immediately recognized what that glance meant and went over to help Bruno up.
âIf you have something to say, Mr. Grant, speak up.â
âMr. Quincy, the Grant family is now in dire financial straits due to a lack of cash flow. Given that our families are on amicable terms, could you lend a hand to save the Grant family?â
Bruno began sobbing uncontrollably and pleading like a child.
Noah looked at him, unmoved He was not in the habit of being sympathetic to men âAmicable terms? You probably donât remember, Mr. Grant, but the Grant family owes the Quincy family a life. You have the gall to discuss amicable terms with me right now?â
âYes, the Grant family owes the Quincy family, but Madeline also bore a child for the Quincy family. Donât you think that deserves some credit? In any case, our two families are inextricably linked!â
âWe are, indeed, inextricably linked. For Coltâs sake, Iâve been nice to the Grants over the last five years. I even thought Angie and the rest of your Grant family were sincere to Colt, and I dreamed about merging both families. I even let bygones be bygones, but what have you all done?â
âMr. Quincy, Angie, and the rest of the Grant family have always treated Colt with love and care. He is, after all, my grandson.
How could I possibly mistreat him?â
âReally? Mrs. Grant gave Colt ginger powder, and he ran a fever last night due to his allergy to it. How do you intend to explain this?â
Bruno was so terrified when he learned of Coltâs allergy that his legs went weak, and he nearly fell to the ground.
âAh! That bitch! She dared to attack Colt! Mr. Quincy, I had no idea about this. I would never have let her do it if I had known. You have to believe me! To be honest, Madeline is not my wifeâs daughter, which is why she is always so prejudiced against her. I didnât expect her to go so far as to attack Madelineâs child! That is heinous!â
He was becoming increasingly convinced that he was correct in driving that bitch out.
With that in mind, Bruno rushed up to Noah to claim credit.
âIâve kicked out that vicious woman and the unrepentant Angie, Mr. Quincy. You have to believe me. Colt is my grandson. I would never harm him, nor would the Grant family!â
âYou mentioned that Mrs. Grant did not give birth to Madeline. Arenât Madeline Colt! Mr. Quincy, I had no idea about this. I would never have let her do it if I had known. You have to believe me! To be honest, Madeline is not my wifeâs daughter, which is why she is always so prejudiced against her. I didnât expect her to go so far as to attack Madelineâs child! That is heinous!â
He was becoming increasingly convinced that he was correct in driving that bitch out.
With that in mind, Bruno rushed up to Noah to claim credit.
âIâve kicked out that vicious woman and the unrepentant Angie, Mr. Quincy. You have to believe me. Colt is my grandson. I would never harm him, nor would the Grant family!â
âYou mentioned that Mrs. Grant did not give birth to Madeline. Arenât Madeline and Angie twins?â
That information shocked Noah.
âWe simply claimed that Madeline and Angie are fraternal twins because of their striking resemblance to each other. Angie was in poor health when she was younger and couldnât get around. Fortunately, she had Madeline to keep her company...â
Bruno didnât expect Noah to be interested in this topic, so he responded hesitantly.
He had the impression that Noah was more interested in Madeline than Angie. Could it be that he hadnât let go of his hatred from back then?
Bruno couldnât help but break out in a nervous sweat as he thought about it.
Noahâs eyes widened in surprise as he heard Brunoâs words.
In poor health and couldnât get around?
Who was in the Blue Sky Amusement Park with me when I was a kid?
Did I just discover a big secret?
Could this just be a figment of my imagination?
In an instant, Noahâs heart grew wild with emotions as a trace of panic flashed through his eyes.
âSir...â
Noahâs ears rang with Wayneâs voice, and he pulled himself back from his thoughts.
His face returned to its usual coolness.
âSee the visitor off.â
âMr. Quincy! Mr. Quincy! Save the Grant family, I beg you. You must save the Grant family!â
When Noah commanded to see the visitor out, Bruno cried out in desperation However, Noah no longer wanted to hear his voice, so he requested that Wayne escort him from the meeting room.
He was bewildered now and felt his chest tighten, making breathing difficult.
Brunoâs hysterical pleading subsided, and Wayne returned after finishing the task.
âSir, you donât look well. Do you want Mr.
Felch to come over?â
âIâm fine. You go and look into the Grant familyâs genealogy. The more information, the better.â
âOkay!â
Wayne could sense the dull aura on Noahâs body, and he immediately realized the gravity of the situation, so he went to perform the task without saying anything else.
Noah took out his phone while alone in the meeting room, and when he unlocked it, the screen still showed the surveillance video that had been paused just now.
The womanâs eyes were filled with fear in the video, like a terrified fawn.
Noah gripped the phone tightly, muttering, âWho the hell are you?â
Thomas had been antsy all morning because he hadnât seen Noah. He was worried that the big scumbag would cause trouble for his mother.
He had always been proactive, so he put on his small schoolbag and quietly slipped out.
It was time he kept track of the big scumbagâs whereabouts so he could be a good spy for his mother.
Thomas snuck out of the villa and hopped right onto the car he had booked in advance using an e-hailing app.
Sitting in the carâs back seat, Thomas activated the tracking feature on his phone.
Noah discovered the tracking device the last time. Fortunately, he was quick- witted enough to install a real-time location tracking system on Noahâs phone while Noah was distracted.
He only had to open the âFind My Familyâ app to find out where the big scumbag was!
Noah was in the Quinton Corporation Building, according to the tracker pin.
When Thomas saw the exact location, he immediately changed his destination address on the e-hailing app, and the car drove to Quinton Corporation.
When the driver saw a young child like him traveling alone to the Quinton Corporation, he couldnât help but inquire.
âHey kid, why are you riding alone to Quinton Corporation in the car?â
Thomas didnât want to start a conversation, so he slipped on his sunglasses.
Even though mommy always tells me to be polite, she also says children should not talk to strangers.
He was under no obligation to satisfy a strangerâs curiosity.
âWow, this kid is cool.â The driver stopped talking when he realized he was ignoring him and instead focused on driving.
In no time at all, they reached their destination.
Thomas had set up an e-wallet for auto payment, so when the car arrived at the destination, he simply opened the door and ran toward the Quinton Corporationâs building.
He was giddy with excitement!
Wow! I wouldnât believe it if I didnât see it for myself. What a surprise!
The Quinton Corporationâs building is impressive!
Itâs so tall, massive, and magnificent!
Thomas was so excited that he had already begun calculating how much inheritance he might receive in the future!
