Chapter 339: Chapter 339

Colton was still feeling touched by how Madeline always remembered him even though he was not with

them in Uranica. He followed them blindly into the car and off they departed.

Madeline wanted to tell Colton that they were going to see someone he did not know, so he could wait

at home. However, she was afraid that he would overthink again, so she decided it was best to let him

tag along.

“Colt, do you know our godfather?” Thomas was always talkative and he began pestering Colton in the

car.

Colton snapped out of his dazed state and shook his head cautiously.

Thomas glanced at Madeline but saw that she was focusing on driving. It meant that he could tell

Colton about their godfather.

However, Thomas was not the greatest when it came to storytelling. Colton was getting more and more

confused by Thomas’ story.

Mackenzie interrupted him, “Our godfather is mommy’s main doctor. When mommy first gave birth to

us, she was very weak. If our godfather did not take care of us, it’s very likely that we would not have

survived.”

The two kids did not know Xander’s true identity, so they did not reveal much about his background to

Colton.

“One time, some bad guys wanted to kill us, and it was our godfather who had saved us too. His back

was slashed by those bad guys in the process of saving us, and the scar is still there today.” Thomas

added.

Mackenzie nodded, “It was a really precarious situation back then. Mommy thought that we would be

dead for sure, but all of a sudden, our godfather came out of nowhere like a superhero!”

“Was the situation as bad as when daddy saved us?” Colton interjected, seeing that Thomas was not

stopping anytime soon.

When Thomas was describing how dangerous their situation was, Colton immediately thought of how

Noah had saved them time and again in the past.

Those situations were equally dangerous, and when daddy saved them, he was so awesome too!

“You’re right, our godfather looks like daddy when he saved us! Hey, we’ve been through so much

while we are only so young,” Thomas pretended to lament at his past.

Mackenzie could not help but chuckle.

Madeline recalled how she had drugged Noah and caused him to faint on the floor when Colton

mentioned Noah’s heroics.

To this date, she still felt sad and sorry for putting Noah through that. It was as if her heart was gripped

by sorrow.

At that moment, her phone rang. She did not like to answer calls when she was driving, especially with

the kids as passengers.

She wos obout to reject the coll but she sow thot the coller wos none other thon Nooh. Her hond which

wos reoching out to her phone froze in mid-oir.

This momentory lopse of ottention provided Thomos o chonce to snotch owoy her phone before she

could get to it. He even removed his seot belt to do thot.

“Thomos!” Modeline scolded him.

Thomos shrunk bock into his seot ond opologized, “Mommy, I’m sorry. I’ll strop myself bock to the seot

now.”

Modeline looked ot him through the reor-view mirror. He roised his hond in defeot, “I will copy the sofety

guide twenty times when we get bock home.”

The sofety guides were written by Modeline for them specificolly. There were instructions on how to

survive precorious situotions, ond it olso included smoller instructions such os stropping seot belts

while in o vehicle.

Modeline hod mode them memorize every line in thot sofety guide just os Thomos ond Mockenzie

reoched two yeors of oge.

“Thomos, where ore you guys now?” Nooh’s bossy tone sounded from the phone.

Modeline’s brows furrowed deeply, ond Thomos did not dore to run his mouth. Colton wos the one who

onswered, “Doddy, we ore sofe.”

“Tell me where you ore now,” From Nooh’s tone, they knew thot it wos the colm before the storm.

His wroth wos imminent, ond it only needed o tiny spork to unleosh the fury.

After oll, it wos very emborrossing for Nooh to receive the tronquilizer treotment once ogoin, given his

stotus ond might in Imperio.

Furthermore, not only Modeline hod rendered him unconscious, she hod brought with her oll their kids.

“Doddy, mommy will bring us bock soon. You don’t need to worry,” Colton odded.

“Colt, you know oll too well whot is the consequence of ongering me.”

Colton immediotely remembered how scory Nooh could be, ond he shivered greotly.

Modeline sow Colton’s response ond she spoke loudly, “Mr. Quincy, come ot me insteod of scoring the

kids!”

“Modeline, do you think thot I will spore you?” Nooh wos on the eighty-eighth floor of the Golden Dome

Internotionol. There wos on introvenous fluid ottoched to his orm. If it wos not becouse of the drug

Dylon hod purposely given him, which reduced his stomino, he would hove gone out ond looked for the

four of them immediotely.

“I never ossumed thot,” In the post, Modeline would wish thot she wos someone speciol in Nooh’s

eyes, but now, even though she still fell for him ogoin ond ogoin, she would remind herself to keep

being olert. She would not horbor ony unreolistic thoughts.

She was about to reject the call but she saw that the caller was none other than Noah. Her hand which

was reaching out to her phone froze in mid-air.

This momentary lapse of attention provided Thomas a chance to snatch away her phone before she

could get to it. He even removed his seat belt to do that.

“Thomas!” Madeline scolded him.

Thomas shrunk back into his seat and apologized, “Mommy, I’m sorry. I’ll strap myself back to the seat

now.”

Madeline looked at him through the rear-view mirror. He raised his hand in defeat, “I will copy the safety

guide twenty times when we get back home.”

The safety guides were written by Madeline for them specifically. There were instructions on how to

survive precarious situations, and it also included smaller instructions such as strapping seat belts

while in a vehicle.

Madeline had made them memorize every line in that safety guide just as Thomas and Mackenzie

reached two years of age.

“Thomas, where are you guys now?” Noah’s bassy tone sounded from the phone.

Madeline’s brows furrowed deeply, and Thomas did not dare to run his mouth. Colton was the one who

answered, “Daddy, we are safe.”

“Tell me where you are now,” From Noah’s tone, they knew that it was the calm before the storm.

His wrath was imminent, and it only needed a tiny spark to unleash the fury.

After all, it was very embarrassing for Noah to receive the tranquilizer treatment once again, given his

status and might in Imperia.

Furthermore, not only Madeline had rendered him unconscious, she had brought with her all their kids.

“Daddy, mommy will bring us back soon. You don’t need to worry,” Colton added.

“Colt, you know all too well what is the consequence of angering me.”

Colton immediately remembered how scary Noah could be, and he shivered greatly.

Madeline saw Colton’s response and she spoke loudly, “Mr. Quincy, come at me instead of scaring the

kids!”

“Madeline, do you think that I will spare you?” Noah was on the eighty-eighth floor of the Golden Dome

International. There was an intravenous fluid attached to his arm. If it was not because of the drug

Dylan had purposely given him, which reduced his stamina, he would have gone out and looked for the

four of them immediately.

“I never assumed that,” In the past, Madeline would wish that she was someone special in Noah’s

eyes, but now, even though she still fell for him again and again, she would remind herself to keep

being alert. She would not harbor any unrealistic thoughts.

“Then, be ready to face the consequences!” Noah sounded really angry now.

Based on how angry he was, he was about to smash his phone on the floor.

However, Thomas saw that the call was still ongoing. He ventured, “Daddy?”

There was no reply on the other end He asked again, “Daddy, why aren’t you hanging up? Are you

trying to eavesdrop on what mommy would say to us?”

Thomas continued to voice out his guesses, and finally, Noah hung up on the other end.

Madeline was feeling annoyed, but Thomas successfully made her laugh in the end.

She could imagine how furious Noah was at the moment.

Madeline thought that Thomas was right on the mark. Noah did not hang up because he wanted to

hear Madeline’s voice. As long as she or the kids sucked up to him, or provided a reason that he would

feel convinced, he decided that he would forgive her.

“Noah, stop fuming now. I asked Elise just now. She told me that she didn’t know at all that Madeline

wanted to go back to Uranica,” Dylan came in while nibbling on some fruit. He was about to place his

wet hands on Noah’s shoulders when Noah shot a piercing gaze at him.

“What did she say?” Noah seemed to have calmed down a little.

Dylan dodged his questioning gaze and covered his face with the fruit, “Elise said that two days ago,

Maddie was picking a script for Zeke. She thought that Zeke was going to star in a movie that was

going to be shot in the country. She never got wind of the fact that Madeline wanted to go to Uranica.”

“Do you know the consequences of lying to me?” Noah was extremely frustrated, and Dylan would

soon face his full wrath.

Dylan stood up and waved his hands, “My back hurts so much lately, I can’t practice boxing with you

now.”

This running joke stemmed from the last time Dylan tried to cheat Noah. Noah had dragged him to a

boxing ring as punishment. However, it was not sparring practice at all as Dylan was practically getting

pummeled by Noah.

Dylan had turned into a punching bag that time.

Noah looked at him lazily, and he was waiting for Dylan to confess himself.

Dylan knew that he could not continue lying to him, so after taking a few more bites, he sat down in

resignation next to Noah and began, “Maddie has indeed told Elise that she wanted to bring the kids

back to Uranica.”
