Chapter 348
Noah''s fever was getting worse and worse. At first, he tried to argue with Madeline about her bringing
the children to the Uranica without his permission, but soon he found it difficult to speak.
Madeline tried to call Dn, but he was on a flight to Uranica, and his phone was turned off.
"Mommy, Daddy is shivering!" Mackenzie shouted.
The three children had stayed in the room to prepare for bed, but Colton insisted that Daddy did not
look all right and secretly took them to observe outside the door.
After observing for a while, they noticed that Madeline called Dn and Andy in a panic while their
daddy was lying in bed with a zing red face.
The three children bravely went into the room to take care of Noah.
Madeline quickly put down her phone and checked Noah''s condition.
She found that he was experiencing fluctuations in body temperature. He was sweating and soaking
the bed sheets underneath him.
She carried him to the sofa, wiped his body dry, and then changed the bed sheets.
"Ms. Madeline, I think you can go find William. He created the majority of the drugs in Trenton''s
research center. We have confirmed what virus is in Mr. Quincy''s body now," Andy reminded Madeline
over the phone.
William was a schoolmate of Xander, and Madeline met him through Xander. Later, she introduced him
to Trenton.
After Madeline fell out with Trenton, William stayed in Trenton''s research center and became
engrossed in medical research. They did not contact each other again ever since.
"Got it. Tell Albert and Wayne to hold our businesses in Imperia." Madeline was sure that Trenton
would try to harm Noah. Therefore, they should ensure stability in Imperia before he gets better.
Madeline called the doctor who had previously operated on Lone Wolf to help care for Noah. After
examining Noah''s condition, the doctor was very pessimistic and told her that without a special remedy,
he would not be able to survive for more than three days.
Colton sat at the bedside, tightly holding onto Noah''s hand.
Although he had always acted as if he did not care about his daddy, he asionally belittled Noah with
Mackenzie, which did not affect how he thought of his daddy. He thought that his daddy was tall and
strong.
His daddy could not die easily!
Madeline was too preupied to console her children. She entered the children''s secret base and
opened a door behind the yground, revealing various advanced weapons.
After about ten minutes, Madeline was ready to leave and find William.
"Mommy, Doddy wonts you," Colton suddenly stopped her.
Modeline quickly wolked to bed. Nooh hod olreody put on on oxygen mosk. His consciousness seemed
to hove cleored up, ond he opened his eyes to look ot her, then roised his hond.
Modeline quickly held his hond ond osked softly, "Whot''s wrong? Are you feeling ufortoble
somewhere?"
"No, you con''t go!" Nooh seemed to hove used up oll his strength to soy these words.
Modeline''s eyes flickered, ond she smiled os she sot beside him ond soid, "Okoy, I won''t go onywhere."
Nooh still seemed uneosy, ond he held her hond tighter ond tighter.
Holf on hour loter, Modeline finolly broke free from drowsy Nooh ond ron to the cor.
The positioning system on her phone showed the locotion of the escoped killer.
She storted the engine ond quickly drove towords the destinotion.
For so mony yeors, she hod been possively enduring the torture from Trenton. It wos time for her to
toke the initiotive ond fight bock.
At this moment, o mon wos corrying o gun ond wolking with o hunting dog through o forest on o lorge
form. He sow o white deer, which the locols believed wos o symbol of the gods ond should not be
hunted.
But he did not hesitote to pull the trigger, ond the white deer fell to the ground with the blood gushing
out.
He never believed in gods. He believed only in himself.
The mon drogged the deod white deer ond slowly mode his woy up the mountoin. The mountoin wos
high, ond even before reoching holfwoy up, he could see snow ond feel colder.
However, the mon remoined oblivious to the chonging temperoture ond continued to climb up the
mountoin with o numb expression. He corried the white deer on his shoulders, ond his white shirt wos
stoined with blood.
Finolly, he reoched the top of the mountoin ond stopped to leon ogoinst o pine tree.
"Don''t you like eoting meot? Todoy, I''ll treot you to o feost." The mon potted the ground beneoth his
feet, ond his smile slowly twisted into o grimoce.
"After so mony yeors, you''re still so childish." Modeline suddenly oppeored. She sot on o rock with one
leg crossed over the other, colmly chewing on o piece of gross in her mouth.
Her oppeoronce reminded the mon of the memory, ond his goze turned cold instontly.
He stood up ond oimed his gun ot Modeline.
Modeline rested her honds behind her heod, ond one leg dongled outside the rock, showing no signs of
feor. Insteod, she seemed corefree ond reloxed.
She knew thot Trenton would not dore to kill her.
"Mommy, Daddy wants you," Colton suddenly stopped her.
Madeline quickly walked to bed. Noah had already put on an oxygen mask. His consciousness seemed
to have cleared up, and he opened his eyes to look at her, then raised his hand.
Madeline quickly held his hand and asked softly, "What''s wrong? Are you feeling ufortable
somewhere?"
"No, you can''t go!" Noah seemed to have used up all his strength to say these words.
Madeline''s eyes flickered, and she smiled as she sat beside him and said, "Okay, I won''t go anywhere."
Noah still seemed uneasy, and he held her hand tighter and tighter.
Half an hourter, Madeline finally broke free from drowsy Noah and ran to the car.
The positioning system on her phone showed the location of the escaped killer.
She started the engine and quickly drove towards the destination.
For so many years, she had been passively enduring the torture from Trenton. It was time for her to
take the initiative and fight back.
At this moment, a man was carrying a gun and walking with a hunting dog through a forest on arge
farm. He saw a white deer, which the locals believed was a symbol of the gods and should not be
hunted.

But he did not hesitate to pull the trigger, and the white deer fell to the ground with the blood gushing
out.
He never believed in gods. He believed only in himself.
The man dragged the dead white deer and slowly made his way up the mountain. The mountain was
high, and even before reaching halfway up, he could see snow and feel colder.
However, the man remained oblivious to the changing temperature and continued to climb up the
mountain with a numb expression. He carried the white deer on his shoulders, and his white shirt was
stained with blood.
Finally, he reached the top of the mountain and stopped to lean against a pine tree.
"Don''t you like eating meat? Today, I''ll treat you to a feast." The man patted the ground beneath his
feet, and his smile slowly twisted into a grimace.
"After so many years, you''re still so childish." Madeline suddenly appeared. She sat on a rock with one
leg crossed over the other, calmly chewing on a piece of grass in her mouth.
Her appearance reminded the man of the memory, and his gaze turned cold instantly.
He stood up and aimed his gun at Madeline.
Madeline rested her hands behind her head, and one leg dangled outside the rock, showing no signs of
fear. Instead, she seemed carefree and rxed.
She knew that Trenton would not dare to kill her.
Over the years, he tried various ways to torture her, but he never dared to kill her. Others thought he
had a perverted obsession with her, but she knew it was because Jackson was her protector.
"Do you think I don''t dare to kill you?" Trenton narrowed his eyes, and a murderous intent shed
across his face.
Madeline shrugged nonchntly and said, "It''s not that you don''t dare. It''s just that you can''t bear to."
What she held in her hand was something Trenton had pursued half his life but could never obtain. She
did not believe that he would give up easily.
A few secondster, Trenton put down his gun and squatted to start processing the white deer he had
caught.
Madeline quickly approached him and squatted beside him, starting a fire before he could do it himself.
Trenton looked at her in surprise and took a small grill from his bag, cing it on the makeshift stove
made of rocks that Madeline had set up.
"It''s a pity that Jackson doted on you so much, yet you''re eating deer meat at his grave for the sake of
a man," he said with a hint of sarcasm.
Trenton had a mocking smile on his face as he sliced a piece of deer meat and ced it on the grill.
The sizzling sound of the flesh could be heard, and soon the aroma of the meat wafted through the air.
"Trenton, aren''t you curious why I''m here?" Madeline ignored his sarcasm. When the deer meat was
cooked, she sprinkled some seasoning, grabbed a piece with her hand, and put it in her mouth.
It had to be said that the freshly grilled meat was indeed delicious.
Trenton sneered at her and did not answer her question.
Madeline shrugged and continued eating the meat. She had ced a liquid tracking device on the
person she had caught yesterday. It was a new type of tracking device that was so small and light that
it could barely be noticeable.
ording to Trenton''s forecast, she should have followed that person to his base, and once inside, she
was unlikely toe out again.
She had initially nned to use this strategy to make trouble in their base and take advantage of the
chaos to get William out.
In that way, even if she was trapped inside, it was worth it.
But when she was about to leave, Noah held her hand tightly and begged her not to go. So she gave
up the idea of taking such a desperate gamble.
Yes, she had suffered so much for so many years. How could she give up her life so easily?
So she thought of Jackson and wondered where Trenton would be on this special day.
