Chapter 524 Noah Uses His Charm

Noah was covered in leaves when Lone Wolf arrived.

Lone Wolf asked Noah half-jokingly, "What's going on? You cannot leave either?"

He received a chilly look from Noah, who ignored his question.

Madeline focused exclusively on Colton. She paid no attention to their grudges. She said to Noah, "You and Lone Wolf should take the children and get out of here. I'll stay."

Madeline made a decisive decision. No matter what Mr. Shane intended, Colton's condition was serious and could not be delayed any longer.

"I think they’re targeting you. If we all leave, they'll definitely catch you," Lone Wolf deduced.

Madeline did not refute Lone Wolf.

She continued to say to Noah, "The kid can't wait any longer. We need to take him to the hospital now. If this continues, the fever will damage his brain."

Noah looked coldly at Shane, who was standing not far away.

Before coming here, Noah admired Shane for his glorious deeds and the possibility of him being Madeline's grandfather. He was surprised that Shane turned out to be a sc*mbag who would even target children.

Madeline pushed Noah toward the door and urged, "Stop hesitating! Hurry up and leave now!"

Soon, they alerted the bodyguards who were guarding the door, and they started to fight them.

Madeline also exchanged a few moves with them. Instantaneously, she agreed with Noah—these were no ordinary bodyguards. These individuals were skilled and extremely disciplined; they had received specialized training.

"Old man, have your people open the door!"

Lone Wolf turned around and held Shane hostage with a dagger.

This time, the bodyguards did not show Shane any respect. They did not step back when Lone Wolf brought Shane toward them. Lone Wolf tentatively took a step forward to test the bodyguards. Both sides engaged in combat once more.

In his fury, Lone Wolf seized Shane and used him as a shield.

Shane received several punches to the face. He wanted to rip Lone Wolf apart as he glared at him with hate-filled eyes.

Lone Wolf teased them boldly as he fought, "What in the world? Did you guys hit your boss too? Don't you worry about not getting paid?"

Those bodyguards were unaffected by his teasing. They continued doing what they were supposed to do, which was to stop them. However, when they punched Shane, they clearly used less force.

All of a sudden, Madeline yelled, "Stop it!"

"What are you trying to do?" Madeline asked Shane when they stopped fighting.

Shane made a small smile. Instead of responding, he turned around and entered the house.

Madeline thought it was strange that despite the earlier loud commotion, none of the villa's guests came outside to see what was going on. When she followed Shane to enter the house, she started to

shiver when she saw a few dozen people faint in the hall.

She had done her research on Shane. The old man was praised for his kindness and generosity in almost all of the information she found. However, when she saw him in person, Madeline realized how wrong she was. This old man was clearly a cunning old wolf.

"Give my son medical attention right away! If not, I'd rather go down with you than let you go!"

Madeline grabbed onto Shane's sleeve, refusing to let him go any further.

Shane found a chair to sit on and waved his hand. He motioned for his bodyguards to leave the hall in a composed manner.

Madeline wondered how likely it was for her to take Shane hostage. She had seen earlier that those bodyguards would not hurt Shane. This old man was her most effective shield against the bodyguards.

Shane sensed her thoughts and said, "Don't waste your time. You can kill me here, but it won't make a difference."

Madeline was boiling with rage as she glanced at Colton. The boy appeared weak and helpless in Elise's arms. She could not withstand Shane's teasing any longer. She yelled, "If you keep playing games with me, don't blame Noah for going on a rampage toward your family."

Shane cast a glance at Noah, who stood quietly next to Madeline. Noah seemed insignificant, but Shane could not ignore him.

"I can have the doctor treat the child now," Shane said.

"I don't need you to do that. Just make sure you have all the medicine on my prescription ready," Dylan said.

Dylan looked at Shane with disdain. He could not withstand the idea of using a child as a bargaining chip. He had watched Colton grow up. Apart from being bullied by Angie, he had never suffered any harm or injustice. This time, the Harvey family had screwed up big time.

Noah remained silent throughout. He was probably held back for Madeline's sake.

Dylan gave the prescription to Shane, who then had the butler, who appeared out of nowhere, take it away.

Shane felt the pressure from Noah and Madeline, but he did not show it. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Wilda wondered, "Grandpa, what's going on? I just searched all over for you. The guards said you weren't in the room."

Wilda showed up out of nowhere. She was startled to see people passing out all over the floor.

She then saw a group of people with different expressions who were conscious. Her first reaction was that they were teaming up to bully her grandpa. When she saw Noah, she tried to convince herself that Noah would not do such a thing.

"This doesn't concern you. Go back to your room," Shane said, trying to protect Wilda.

Lone Wolf sneered at Shane even more.

"Don't worry about this old man. We don't give a damn about him. Don't be angry with him," Lone Wolf whispered to Madeline.

Noah glared at him, but he did not say anything. If they were not in this predicament, he would probably cut out Lone Wolf's tongue.

Lone Wolf swallowed his saliva, and he felt relieved that his tongue was still intact. He provocatively glanced at Noah and whispered to Madeline, "Ms. Harvey seems to have an eye on Mr. Quincy. You can ask Mr. Quincy to use his charm to save this kid."

Madeline frowned when Wilda appeared.

When she heard Lone Wolf's words, she furrowed her brows even more. Lone Wolf's suggestion seemed reasonable to her.

Their gazes met, and Noah clearly did not want to do that. He even expressed his anger at Madeline for entertaining such a bad idea.

At that moment, Colton made a weak grunt. It made Madeline's heart ache due to the worrisome situation.

She used Dylan as a shield and pushed Noah out.

Noah ended up bumped into Wilda.

Wilda instinctively reached out to steady Noah.

Then he bumped into her for the second time. When Wilda was about to fall back, Noah grabbed her and pulled her into his arms.

Lone Wolf continued to add fuel to the flames from the side. He said, "Look! See for yourself, he wants to hug her so badly."

Lone Wolf's remark was annoying Madeline more and more. She glared at him.

"Mr. Quincy, are you okay?" Wilda blushed and asked.

Noah gave her a thoughtful glance and said, "My son is ill, and we can't leave. We don't have any medicine to give him."

Earlier, Wilda made an attempt to leave the villa, but the bodyguards also prevented her from doing so. Therefore, she knew Noah and the others were unable to leave.

Even a moron could see that something was seriously wrong when there was a fire in the house and everyone collapsed to the ground.
