Chapter 336: Chapter 336

Mackenzie’s heart was pounding in her chest. She did not know why she was trying to hide from Noah,

but her body reacted that way without realizing it.

Her instinct told her that she could not tell Noah about their upcoming trip to Uranica with the purpose

of visiting their godfather.

When Noah switched on the table lamp, he saw Mackenzie’s eyelashes flutter ever so slightly. He

immediately knew that she was just pretending to be asleep.

From her sleeping posture, he deduced that she must be hiding her phone while in bed.

She must have talked to someone on the phone, and some shocking news was what caused her to

shoot up from the bed. It was why she was sitting up on the bed when he first checked on her.

“Zeke, are you having nightmares now? Do you want to tell me about it?” Noah asked in a gentle voice.

Mackenzie felt her body getting stiffer as she was slowly gripped by fear. Sweat started to form on her

forehead.

Noah did not have the heart to scare his precious daughter, therefore he decided to leave the room

without doing anything.

However, he immediately called Wayne the moment he was out of the room, “Go look into the people

Mrs. Quincy has met today.”

Very soon, Wayne replied, “Mrs. Quincy has visited Oscar at the hospital, and then she talked to Ms.

Lambert for a while.”

Noah scrolled through his phone contact and sent a message to Colton.

“How is mommy doing today?”

Colton was about to sleep when he suddenly received Noah’s message. He secretly checked on

Thomas and when he saw that Thomas was soundly asleep, he replied to Noah.

“Mommy is doing fine.”

“Did Thomas call Zeke just now?”

“Yeah, Thomas told her that he has wrecked her favorite toy. Zeke must be so angry now.”

This was the first time Colton had lied to Noah. He felt grateful that Noah only decided to text him

instead of talking to him on the phone. Otherwise, he was sure that Noah would catch him lying.

“I see. Okay, go to sleep now. Take care of mommy.”

Noah believed in Colton, but something was bothering him, making him wary. He carried his own pillow

and sneaked into Mackenzie’s room.

Mackenzie, who was packing up her luggage, caught the sound of footsteps outside her room, which

sent her into a frenzy. She shoved her luggage under her bed and threw herself onto her bed quickly.

When Noah laid down next to her, he was tucking her in when he realized that the bed did not have the

usual warmth that indicated someone sleeping on it for some time. His heart sank as he realized that

Zeke must be hiding something from him.

“Zeke, daddy is hurt now and you know that. You will always be by my side, right?”

Nooh deliberotely osked her.

Mockenzie felt o stronge guilt overcoming her. If she wos reolly gone, doddy would be left oll olone.

Whot if he did not toke his medicine on time?

Furthermore, he wos hurt becouse he risked his life to sove mommy. Mockenzie felt thot she hod o

duty to toke core of him.

However, despite oll thot, she needed to see her godfother.

All she could do wos to moke it up for Nooh ofter coming bock.

Mockenzie decided thot this wos the best course of oction. When Nooh sow thot she wos finolly osleep,

he got up ond circled oround the room. He finolly sow port of her bockpock which wos sticking out from

behind the curtoin.

He took her bog ond checked the contents, ond sow thot it contoined Mockenzie’s fovorite invisibility

clook ond honey bottle.

He wos gloomy ond depressed, yet he could not bring himself to be ongry ot her.

He ended up sitting on the sofo, not oble to sleep for the whole night.

At six in the morning, Modeline, who wos dressed in o steolth suit sneoked into the Quincy residence.

Although Thomos hod disobled the olorm ond surveillonce system here, she felt thot everything wos

going too well.

However, she wos well within the compound of the Quincy residence, so she would not foce ony

donger here onywoy. She decided not to overthink ond go stroight to Mockenzie’s bedroom.

However, the moment she sneoked in through the window, she immediotely fell into o worm embroce.

When she sow thot the person who wos embrocing her wos weoring o gos mosk, she felt her heort

jumping into her throot. Her hond loshed out os she wos obout to toke him down.

“We’ve not seen eoch other for doys. It seems thot you’re missing me bodly, om I right?”

When Modeline heord o fomilior voice, she tried to stop her ottock. However, she wos too lote os she

hod loshed out with too much force. The ottock londed on Nooh’s shoulders onywoy.

“Why don’t you dodge it?” Modeline scolded him.

Nooh wos cowering os he clutched his shoulders, but his voice indicoted thot he wos hoppy to see her,

“I wos ofroid thot if I dodge you, you will never touch me ogoin.”

“Let me toke o look.” Modeline suddenly recolled thot on the doy of the occident, there wos o pool of

blood next to thot motorcycle. She wos suddenly nervous ond she wonted to remove his suit to check

on his condition.

However, Nooh grobbed her wrist, ond olthough he wos weoring gloves, he felt unwilling to let go of her

honds.

Modeline felt o stronge coptivotion in her heort os she locked eyes with him.

“Did you controct some diseose? Why ore you dressed in o suit?”

Modeline wonted to divert the topic of conversotion, but Nooh suddenly let go of her ond stoggered

bockword.

Noah deliberately asked her.

Mackenzie felt a strange guilt overcoming her. If she was really gone, daddy would be left all alone.

What if he did not take his medicine on time?

Furthermore, he was hurt because he risked his life to save mommy. Mackenzie felt that she had a

duty to take care of him.

However, despite all that, she needed to see her godfather.

All she could do was to make it up for Noah after coming back.

Mackenzie decided that this was the best course of action. When Noah saw that she was finally asleep,

he got up and circled around the room. He finally saw part of her backpack which was sticking out from

behind the curtain.

He took her bag and checked the contents, and saw that it contained Mackenzie’s favorite invisibility

cloak and honey bottle.

He was gloomy and depressed, yet he could not bring himself to be angry at her.

He ended up sitting on the sofa, not able to sleep for the whole night.

At six in the morning, Madeline, who was dressed in a stealth suit sneaked into the Quincy residence.

Although Thomas had disabled the alarm and surveillance system here, she felt that everything was

going too well.

However, she was well within the compound of the Quincy residence, so she would not face any

danger here anyway. She decided not to overthink and go straight to Mackenzie’s bedroom.

However, the moment she sneaked in through the window, she immediately fell into a warm embrace.

When she saw that the person who was embracing her was wearing a gas mask, she felt her heart

jumping into her throat. Her hand lashed out as she was about to take him down.

“We’ve not seen each other for days. It seems that you’re missing me badly, am I right?”

When Madeline heard a familiar voice, she tried to stop her attack. However, she was too late as she

had lashed out with too much force. The attack landed on Noah’s shoulders anyway.

“Why don’t you dodge it?” Madeline scolded him.

Noah was cowering as he clutched his shoulders, but his voice indicated that he was happy to see her,

“I was afraid that if I dodge you, you will never touch me again.”

“Let me take a look.” Madeline suddenly recalled that on the day of the accident, there was a pool of

blood next to that motorcycle. She was suddenly nervous and she wanted to remove his suit to check

on his condition.

However, Noah grabbed her wrist, and although he was wearing gloves, he felt unwilling to let go of her

hands.

Madeline felt a strange captivation in her heart as she locked eyes with him.

“Did you contract some disease? Why are you dressed in a suit?”

Madeline wanted to divert the topic of conversation, but Noah suddenly let go of her and staggered

backward.

“Did you really contract some disease?”

Madeline continued to ask, but she soon realized that she was in Mackenzie’s room. Mackenzie was

lying in bed without any protective gear now, so based on how Noah doted on her, he would not just

come into Mackenzie’s room without a good reason.

“Why are you here to look for Zeke so early in the morning?” Noah casually asked.

Madeline did not answer him. She walked toward the bed and nudged Mackenzie who was soundly

asleep.

Mackenzie opened her eyes and saw Madeline, and immediately she hugged her, “Mommy, I miss you

so much!”

“Are you awake?” Madeline asked her.

Mackenzie was looking at her with an expression that showed that she remembered what Thomas had

told her last night. She immediately nodded.

“My wife, you haven’t…” Noah was not able to finish his sentence when Madeline suddenly turned

around and injected something into his arm.

Madeline’s hands were shaking, and she was waiting with bated breath to see Noah’s reaction.

After all, when he was tricked by Annalise last time, she administered a tranquilizer, which inadvertently

caused him to have fertility problems.

“What are you doing?” Noah grabbed Madeline’s hand hard.

Madeline carried Mackenzie into her arms and said, “Don’t worry, I just want to take Mackenzie away.”

“How dare you!” Noah’s heart was in a frenzy as he thought that Madeline was going to leave forever

with the three kids.

This must be what was happening. No wonder she had urged him repeatedly to get their divorce

certificate a while ago.

“Mr. Quincy, I am just going out with my child. What’s wrong with that?” Madeline tried to pray away his

fingers and get away from him.

Noah felt that his consciousness was waning, and he looked at Mackenzie who was in Madeline’s

embrace. He begged in a weak voice, “Zeke, stay by my side, alright?”

Mackenzie was stricken with sorrow, but she had no choice as she had chosen to side with mommy,

“I’m sorry, daddy…”

Thomas’ voice suddenly sounded in Madeline’s earpiece, “Mommy, the butler has discovered the lapse

in the security system. You have to come out with Zeke now.”

“Please don’t go…” Noah began to lose his balance, and then he was tripped by a table.

He forced his eyes to stay open with sheer willpower. He could not divert his gaze away from Madeline.

Madeline felt so lost now, but as Thomas continued to urge her, she refreshed her conviction and

flipped over the ledge and out of the room. She soon left the residence with Mackenzie and Thomas.
