Chapter 86


    Angie''s expression brightened when she heard the good news. She eagerly picked up the garments


    thrown across the floor and gushed, "You are the best, Mom! How did you get acquainted with the


    Hanns? The Hann family''s third son used to be interested in me. Don''t worry, I''ll certainly win his heart.


    By then, we''ll be living in a nice home and buying everything we want!" She then stood in front of the


    mirror, trying on the clothes that Suzette had persuaded James to buy on sale.


    "All right, I''ll wait for your good news. Carry on with the preparations," Suzette replied. She was relieved


    to see her daughter had regained her fighting spirit.


    Suzette got her bag and exited the room after giving Angie a reassuring pat on the shoulder. She knew


    there was no such thing as a free lunch, so she went to find James and offered herself to him in return


    for the three-million-dor gown.


    Three dayster, Madeline was touching up her makeup at Maple Forest Vi when Albert informed


    her, "Ms. Grant, the car is ready. We may leave anytime."


    After putting on her tassel diamond ne, the woman stood up and said, "All right, let''s go!"


    However, she encountered amotion as soon as she stepped out of the room.


    "You haven''t yet recovered, Mr. Quincy. Why are you walking about instead of resting in your room?"


    When Madeline lifted her head, she spotted Noah wearing an exquisite ck suit. She was perplexed


    by his sudden appearance but had a hunch that it was rted to the Hann family''s birthday celebration.


    It would be the Hanns'' honor to have the wealthiest family in Imperia attend their event.


    Noah lifted his brow and said confidently, "I heard that it''s the Hann family''s birthday celebration today. I


    wasn''t keen on attending, but I was worried that you would be lonely without a malepanion." He


    then extend his arm and waited for Madeline to ce her hand through it.


    The woman''s first instinct was to step back and think of ways to reject his advances. However, she


    quickly changed her mind and replied, "Thank you for taking the time to apany me, Mr. Quincy."


    She hooked her arm through his and followed him to the car with a wide grin.


    Noah and Madeline soon arrived at the Hann residence. They were greeted by Roger Hann and his


    wife, Belinda Garot, the moment they alighted from their Rolls-Royce.


    Roger was taken aback to see the duo holding hands, but he soon grinned from ear to ear. "Wee,


    Mr. Quincy and Ms. Grant! Thank you for gracing the event. Let''s talk inside!" The other attendees


    cleared a path for the distinguished guests to enter the house.


    "Mr. Quincy, you and Ms. Grant are a match made in heaven!" Rogervished Noah and Madeline with


    praises as


    he walked them into the event hall. The crowd could not stop admiring their good looks as well. "What


    a lovely couple, Mr. Quincy and Ms. Grant!"


    Rogervished them withpliments as he led them inside the event hall. The audience couldn''t stop


    admiring their superb looks as well.


    "What a charming couple, Mr. Quincy and Ms. Grant!"


    "They look like they walked out of a fairy tale!"


    "Ms. Grant is such a lucky woman! She must have done many good deeds to have such good fortune."


    "If they get married in the future, Ms. Grant will be the most honorable woman in Imperia!"


    Everyone cast envious nces in Madeline''s direction, wishing they were in her shoes. However, the


    woman felt ufortable being in the spotlight and could not wait to part ways with Noah. She had


    epted the invitation to see what Suzette and Angie were up to. It was never her attention to steal the


    limelight and broadcast her rtionship with Noah.


    Unfortunately, Noah held a different opinion from hers. He halted his footsteps and announced, "Please


    don''t be mistaken. Ms. Grant and I aren''t dating."


    The crowd gasped at the sudden revtion. Some were devastated to learn that the dream couple was


    a ruse. Noah made another surprising revtion before they could process the news. "However, I''m


    doing everything I can to win Ms. Grant''s heart. As long as she agrees, she will be Mrs. Quincy."


    Despite the news that Noah was interested in Madeline, they were taken aback by how quickly their


    rtionship was progressing.


    Madeline frowned and red at Noah. "What the hell are you doing, Noah Quincy?"


    No way in hell am I agreeing to marry Noah! I couldn''t care less about being Mrs. Quincy.


    N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    "I mean every word I said. Can''t you feel my sincerity?" Despite the woman''s enraged expression,


    Noah did not back down. Instead, he smiled endearingly at Madeline.


    I''m going to make up whatever I owe Madeline from five years ago. The first would be to show her my


    unwavering love and concern. Although she was Mrs. Quincy in the past, I''ve never once cared for her.


    As a result, she became aughing stock in Imperia. From now on, I''ll make sure she never


    experiences any unhappiness.


    Meanwhile, Angie was sipping wine while moving seductively toward the man leaning against the


    balcony on the second floor. He was none other than Sam Hann, the third son of the Hann family.


    Getting the attention of the wealthy man was her only chance to defeat Madeline Grant. She could not


    leave the party empty-handed, not after she went to great length to be invited to the Hann family''s


    event.


    "Hi, Ms. Grant. What a surprise!" Sam said sarcastically as his eyes lingered down her body. He was


    previously captivated by her good beauty and slender form, but she never once reciprocated his


    advances. Angie was more concerned about marrying into the Quincy family. He promised vengeance


    for the humiliation he had felt in the past now that she had willingly surrendered herself to him.


    "I didn''t n to attend the event, but I agreed toe when I heard that you will be here." Angie tried


    to react lightheartedly despite sensing the man''s contempt. She forced a smile and wrapped her fingers


    around his tie.


    "I''m grateful to Ms. Grant for making the trip for me." Sam could deduce Angie''s intentions by her sultry


    gaze. Despite his displeasure at her hidden agenda and scandalous behavior, he was captivated by


    her beauty. His hands glided down her back and settled hot and warm on the bare skin of her waist.


    After Madeline finally managed to escape the crowd, she ran to the upper floor to get a respite. While


    seeking for a ce to hide, she heard a familiar voice, "Be gentle, Sam. You''re hurting me!"
