Chapter 114


    Thomas'' eyes lit up upon seeing Noah. He got up from the sofa and sprinted towards Noah. "Daddy,


    you''re awake! Does your head still hurt?" Thomas uttered. "Don''t worry, Colt. My head doesn''t hurt


    anymore. What are you two doing here anyway?" Noah asked.


    Noah nced over at the burnt pancakes in the pan. He then looked at Dn, who had a guilty smile


    on his face. He instantly pieced the puzzle together. "Didn''t I tell you not to touch anything in the


    kitchen? You are unworthy of doing so," Noah said.


    "Hehe. Noah, it was an ident. I''ll be a master chef one day!" Dn uttered. "Fine. You better


    start practicing. After all, men who can''t cook will never get married," Noah replied. "Who told you that?


    It''s nonsense. You can''t cook either yet you dare mock me!" Dn said.


    "Colt, are you hungry? You want pancakes, right?" Noah asked. "That''s right. Daddy, I''m starving right


    now," Colt replied as he nodded. "I''ll make some for you, alright?" Noah said. "Hooray!" Thomas


    eximed as he pped his hands.


    "You''re going to make pancakes? Noah, I think you''re better off ordering a food delivery. Don''t starve


    the poor kid just to unt in front of me," Dn said as he waved his hands. He did not believe that


    Noah can cook.


    Noah did not bother responding to Dn. He walked to the kitchen and threw the pan with the burnt


    pancakes into the trash bin. He grabbed a new pan from the kitchen cabs and prepared the


    ingredients. The aroma of pancakes swiftly filled the air in an instant.


    Dn''s mouth was wide open. He could not believe his eyes. No one would believe him if he ever said


    that The Demon King of Imperia could make pancakes. He approached Noah as he could not resist the


    fragrance.


    Dn was surprised to see that the pancakes Noah made were not just fragrant, the appearance of it


    was invigorating as well. Thomas began eating immediately without a word. "Noah, when did you learn


    to cook? I never knew about this," Dn said.


    Dn chatted with Noah as he waited for the next pancake to be served. If fighting over food with a


    child was not a crime, he would have asked Noah to let him have the first bite. "I learned it when I was


    bored. Do you believe me now?" Noah said.


    "Believe you in what?" Dn asked. "Believed that men who can''t cook will never get married," Noah


    answered. "Bold of you to say that! You''re not married as well," Dn uttered. "That''s not true.


    Madeline and I have never been divorced. Therefore, she is still my wife," Noah replied as he ced


    the freshly made pancake on a cdon te.


    Thomas, who was eating his pancake, paused as he heard Noah''s words. Madeline had never


    mentioned to him that they were not divorced. Thomas felt it was not bad to have a father who can


    cook. Therefore, he pretended to have not heard anything and continued digging in his pancake.


    Ever since Noah showed up and rescued Thomas and Madeline, he started to change his impression


    of Noah. Apart from the fact that Noah was handsome, he was wealthy as well. Thomas felt that Noah


    was a superhero when he came to their rescue. If Madeline decided to stay with Noah, he would not


    object to it.


    "Whatever. Guess I''m no match for you. However, I''m afraid your legal wife doesn''t want to stay with


    you!" Dn uttered as he felt envious. He would have been harsher with his words if it were not for the


    freshly made pancakes before him.


    However, the te of pancakes suddenly disappeared. When Dn came back to his senses, Noah


    was standing in the elevator with the te in his hands. "Noah, what are you doing? It''s fine if you''re


    leaving, but the pancakes must stay! At least let me have a bite!" Dn uttered.


    "Thanks for your concern. To prevent my wife from leaving me, I shall deliver these pancakes made


    with love to her," Noah said with a straight face. As Dn sprinted towards him, Noah pressed the


    button, and the elevator doors were shut.


    Noah returned to the treatment room with the te of pancakes. Madeline slowly opened her eyes as


    the aroma of pancakes filled her nostrils. "Good. You''re awake. Have something to eat," Noah said. He


    ced the te on the table with a ss of warm chocte milk.


    "You made these?" Madeline asked as she noticed that Noah was still wearing an apron. She felt that


    Noah had been much more gentle with her after five years. She could not imagine him as he was back


    then.


    "That''s right. Colt said he was hungry, so I made some for you as well," Noah said as he pulled the


    chair for her. "Thanks," Madeline said as she approached the table. She nced at the pancakes and


    decided to use the washroom first.


    The toiletries and skin care products were all brand new. The brands were the same as Madeline used


    back at the Maple Forest Vi. It seemed to have been prepared just for her. After looking through the


    different products, she chose a mild facial cleanser.


    Madeline removed the bracelet on her wrist and poured a few drops of golden liquid. She gently mixed


    it with the facial cleanser in her palms and applied it to her face. After a minute, her face was clean and


    free from makeup.


    Madeline felt familiar yet distant as she looked at herself in the mirror. It had been a long time since she


    showed up without any makeup. Noah went upstairs to make a ss of fresh strawberry juice as he


    waited for Madeline.Têxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    When Noah came back to the treatment room, he was astonished to see Madeline without any


    makeup. It was her true self standing right before him. "Noah, you''re aware that I''m not dead, right? I


    also didn''t kill your grandpa," Madeline said.


    "Yes, I know," Noah replied. He had known long ago but he did not dare to admit it. "In that case, could


    you let me go?" Madeline said.
