Aggresive Wife Chapter 259

When Noah arrived at the hospital, Annalise’s fever had subsided, and she was lying quietly on the hospital bed without any abnormalities.

“Mr. Solace, let’s not beat around the bush and be frank.”

He was willing to meet them, not because of Annalise or because he was afraid of Rowan’s threats. He cared about Madeline’s Charity Association, and he believed that he was capable of protecting it.

He was here for the sake of the Old Mr. Solace.

When he was young, Old Mr. Quincy was still the leader of the Quincy family. He was the righteous and appointed heir. But some people were displeased and wanted to get rid of him.

At one banquet, he would have drowned silently in the swimming pool if it were not for Old Mr. Solace.

“During the fire breakout last night, I lied to you so that you could look for Annalise while you were searching for Madeline.” Rowan explained awkwardly.

Noah responded emotionlessly, “Shouldn’t the Solace family be able to handle such a situation?”

“Annalise requested to bring lesser bodyguards to show our sincerity. I didn’t think much about it and agreed. I never expected something like that would happen.”

In fact, Rowan did not bring many bodyguards with him when he arrived at Imperia because he would only be here temporarily to settle Annalise’s issue.

He believed that knowing who he was, no one would dare to provoke them.

“Ms. Solace wasn’t vicious before.”

Noah’s mother and Annalise’s mother were close friends; they betrothed them when they were young, as Old Mr. Solace had saved Noah’s life before. The Solace family was having a good relationship with the Quincy family too.

Noah had known Annalise since she was a child. In his memories, she was a timid girl. He did not expect her to turn out like this.

“Actually, I was doubtful too. She was extremely careful and modest when she first came back to our family. Everyone sympathised with her and pampered her. Maybe she changed out of jealousy and bad influences.”

The Solace family only had one girl in Rowan’s generation. Unfortunately, Annalise was taken away by her mother when she was a child, and she was lost for seven years.

Hence, everyone doted on her very much; they told her to be confident and to trust her family. Solace’s family would always back her up.

Later on, she lived alone with her grandpa, and she was good at making him happy.

Rowan was busy with his studies and career all these years, so he barely met up with his sister. But he always got her a lot of gifts when he met her.

She barely took the initiative to contact him, let alone ask him for anything.

Rowan had always remembered her as an obedient and gentle little girl.

Recently, Grandpa was severely ill. Rowan went back to visit him, and he stayed with him for quite some time.

He accidentally found out that Annalise acted like an innocent and soft girl in front of Grandpa. She would be mean to the servants behind everyone’s back.novelbin

He was puzzled, so he secretly observed her over a period of time. He noticed that the servants were afraid of her, and she was restless and cruel.

His mother gave birth to four of them. Besides living separately with her siblings for seven years, she grew up in the same environment as the rest of them. It was impossible for her to be twisted.

On the contrary, she was raised by Grandpa. She should have been far better. However, not only her personality had problems; she was not as smart as the rest of the Solace family.

So, he took the initiative to propose to his grandfather that he would accompany Annalise back to Imperia.

Grandpa’s condition worsened by days, and he put his entire trust in Annalise, who grew up with him for more than ten years. He would never, ever doubt Annalise.

Coupled with Grandpa’s guilt toward Rowan’s father and mother, he would do anything for Annalise.

Grandpa would never threaten to make the Quincy family disappear if he was still in his right mind.

Noah was not interested in Annalise’s affairs, but he deduced that Annalise was two-faced toward the Solace family.

“Madeline was alright, so I would let this matter go to repay my debt to Old Mr. Solace. I won’t be this easy going if similar things happen again in the future.”

“Well, the Solace family would prepare a generous dowry for Annalise if she’s getting married. If she isn’t, our family would still look after her.” Rowan was hinting at Noah.

He wanted to assure Noah that Annalise would not be able to interfere in the business affairs of the Solace family. He hoped that Noah would be professional about it, not ruining the business relationship between their families.

“At the same time, we knew that we had wronged Ms. Madeline. We would donate 10 million dollars to the Charity Association as an apology to her. I hope you will pass on our apology to her.”

Rowan said it humbly; he was totally sincere. Noah did not immediately agree with Rowan because Madeline should be the one making decisions for her charity association.

“Mr. Solace, you shouldn’t call me to the hospital for work-related matters.”

“It’s because my foot was injured and I couldn’t move. And Annalise was making a fuss, so I didn’t dare leave her unattended. I was worried you might misunderstand our intention, so I invited you here for a talk.”

Rowan’s foot was covered in plaster, and he appeared serious and trustworthy.

Especially when he looked at someone with his innocent eyes, a person with little self-control would probably promise him anything.

Noah would not be fooled by his look, but based on his understanding of the Solace family, he chose to believe Rowan.

“Sir, someone broke into the residence!”

“Are Mrs. Quincy and the children alright?” Noah glared at Rowan when he heard his words.

Rowan gave him a sympathetic look as he overheard the conversation.

“They’re both sound. The man was caught the moment he broke into Mrs. Quincy’s room. We did not find anything on him. Instead, he called the police himself and was taken away by the police.

“He broke into Mrs. Quincy’s room? Tailgate him after he’s out of the police station.”

“Sir, he disappeared into thin air after entering the police station. We’d been following him all along; the police couldn’t find out where he went even after looking into the surveillance. Sir, I’m sorry for ruining my task! Please punish me.”

Noah hung up the phone heatedly. The man was targeting Madeline, because he went straight into her room!

He must have a contact in the police department; if not, he wouldn’t be able to escape quietly.
