Chapter 96


    Madeline felt extremely weak when she returned to Maple Forest Vi in the early morning and passed


    out after going upstairs.


    Yesterday, Thomas stayed at the Quincy residence. However, seeing Noah hadn''t been home all day,


    he sneaked out of the house early in the morning and went straight back to Maple Forest Vi.


    He realized something was wrong with his mother as soon as he walked into Madeline''s room.


    Usually, if he nted a few kisses on Madeline''s face while she was still sleeping, she would


    immediately wake up. However, no matter what he tried now, Madeline couldn''t wake up. It was as if


    she had passed out.


    Thomas became rmed!


    He quickly took out his phone and dialed Andy''s number.


    That was how Madeline ended up hooked up to an IV drip in her own home.


    She gloriously became aa patient.


    "Uncle Andy, when is mommy going to wake up? I''m worried about her." Due to his mother''s frail


    appearance, Thomas became warier when speaking for fear of disturbing his mother''s rest.


    "Don''t worry, Thomas. Ms. Madeline has always been in good health and will awaken once this


    intravenous drip bottle has been finished!"


    "Will Mommy be in a lot of pain with that needle in her hand?" Thomas'' heart ached at the sight, and he


    leaned over to help Madeline blow on the needle site.


    Andy couldn''t stand seeing that poor boy like that any longer, so he found an excuse to bring Thomas


    downstairs and away from Madeline.


    He''d never expected that little brat, who usually ignored Ms. Madeline, to have such a sweet side. He


    was almost in tears!


    "Don''t worry, Thomas. Ms. Madeline will be fine with your Uncle Andy here. You haven''t had breakfast


    yet, have you? How about I warm you some chocte milk?"


    "I don''t have any appetite. When Mommy wakes up, I want to drink with her." Thomas sat on the sofa,


    hugging a pillow. He was feeling low in spirit.


    Andy was rendered speechless. Andy had never cared for children before, and seeing the little guy in


    such a strange way made him feel very uneasy.


    He didn''t know how tofort him, which gave him a headache.


    Thomas had only stayed downstairs for less than minutes before he got too restless to remain still, so


    he found himself an opportunity to go back upstairs.


    He was surprisingly obedient, quietly apanying Madeline by her side. As hey down next to her,


    his small hand held her fingers tenderly.


    Mommy is sick. I''m not leaving. I''m staying to keep Mommypany!


    Andy had no choice but to leave him be.


    Noah showed up with some chicken soup. He instantly panicked when he heard that Madeline was ill


    and hurried upstairs, oblivious to the wounds on his body.


    N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    A dull ache in his heart surfaced as he stared at the pale Madeline lying on the bed.


    It was all his fault she was this way!


    Madeline would not have be ill from a weakened body if it hadn''t been for the blood transfusion.


    When he saw Colt lying beside Madeline in a distraught state with worries written all over his face, he


    couldn''t help but feel even more pained.


    "Colt,e to Daddy for a hug."


    "I''d like to stay with Mommy," Thomas revealed the truth out of instinct.


    "What? What do you call her?" Noah couldn''t help but be shocked. He almost thought he was


    hallucinating.


    "Auntie Madeline is a lot like my mother. I secretly addressed her as such. Please don''t tell Auntie


    Madeline." Thomas felt terrible. He nearly revealed himself!


    Fortunately, he was going to be the best actor ever!


    Heforted himself by holding Madeline''s hand tightly.


    When Noah saw Colt acting like that, he felt very uneasy. Is this what people mean when they say the


    bond between a mother and her child is unbreakable?


    Colt could feel Madeline''s joys and sorrows even if they had yet to acknowledge each other…


    Consanguinity is truly a magical thing!


    Noah also leaned in and found a spot for himself on the big bed next to Madeline. Like Colt, he was


    staying guard by her side.


    For the first time, Thomas had no intention of driving Noah away because he could sense that Noah


    was, at this moment, just like himself, deeply concerned about his mother.


    …


    Angie had arrived at the entrance to the Lowe family''s vi using the address that Jerry had given her.


    It was the Autumn Leaves Vi in the suburbs. Her mood instantly improved when she saw the


    magnificent courtyard and luxurious décor.


    Despite its location in the suburbs, this vi had an excellent location as it was located in the vicinity of


    an international school. So, ording to Imperia''s housing price valuation, the property''s market price


    would begin at least one hundred million dors.


    Even their indoor slippers were of a world-renowned brand, and the interior design was even more


    exquisite.


    The new vi was much better than the Grant family''s destroyed vi!


    Angie chose the best room in the vi to live in, and she was so happy that she couldn''t stop smiling all


    day.


    She thought Jerry was a useless idiot at first, but who knew he''d be so generous as to give her an


    expensive vi? He kept his word and let her live in it, much to her surprise!


    The Lowe family appeared to wield considerable power!


    She went downstairs, happy in her thoughts.


    Suzette and Bruno were admiring the luxurious vi''s interior designs and decors in the hall downstairs.


    "Jerry gave me this vi as a gift, Mom and Dad. You can stay here if you want, but from now on, I''ll be


    in charge of all Grant family affairs, and if any of you dare to beat me again, I''ll kick you out of the vi!"


    "Oh, my dear daughter, it was a spur-of-the-moment action. Why are you still harboring grudges like


    this? You…" Bruno was fuming on the inside, but he couldn''t show it.


    His face was as horrid as it could be.


    "Yeah, Angie. It was just that your father lost his cool when you said the Grant Corporation was


    doomed..." Suzette noticed Bruno''s face bing more maddening, so she rushed forward to smooth


    things over.


    "Now that Jerry has been so generous to me, isn''t it only a matter of time before I ask him for money to


    save Grant Corporation?" Angie felt very good about herself.


    The matter seemed almost trivial to her.


    "Angie, can you really convince Jerry to invest in our family?" Bruno''s eyes lit up as he heard that.


    "Without a doubt! Don''t you all know how Jerry feels about me? Will he give me such arge house if


    he doesn''t like me? I''ll call him right now if you don''t believe me!"


    Angie spoke solemnly as she prepared to pull out her phone and make a call to Jerry.


    "Yes, yes, yes. Jerry now has Angie in his heart. Our family will have hope as long as she asks!"


    Suzette smiled brightly when she saw her precious daughter being so assertive.


    They were all waiting for Angie to call Jerry with bated breath.


    The phone call was quickly answered.


    "Hello, Jerry. You''re also aware that my family is currently experiencing difficulties. As you can see..."


    "Okay. Shoot. I''ll give my father-inw ten million dors. Think of it as a dowry gift!"


    "Really? Jerry, you are so generous to me!" Angie was absolutely thrilled.


    What good fortune she had in meeting apdog like Jerry!


    "This is nothing? Tonight, make sure to perform well at Enchanteur Bar! That would suffice to thank


    me!"
