Abusive Wife Chapter 172

Chapter 172

Noah sat next to Madeline and took out a round tablet from his pocket. He then placed it on Madeline’s forehead. After the tablet came into contact with the temperature of the human body, it gave off a faint fragrance. In a few seconds, Madeline regained consciousness.

She opened her eyes in a daze and saw Noah looking at her nervously. She thought that it was a dream.

“Madeline, wake up!”

“Noah? Why are you here? You found me…” Madeline let out a sweet smile as she could not tell whether it was a dream or reality.

“I know you will find me!” She said proudly.

Suddenly, she felt that someone was pinching her face.

Ouch!

“Madeline, Madeline Grant!”

“Yes, I am!” Madeline replied while enduring the pain on her cheek.

She immediately got her consciousness back and realized that she was not dreaming!

“Noah Quincy?”

“Yes, that’s me. I finally found you. There is a bomb near us, and we’re running out of time. Can you try to stand up?”

“Bomb?” Madeline felt extremely confused, yet she complied with Noah’s orders. She then stood up by supporting herself against the wall.

She has gradually regained her energy.

“Yes, but don’t you worry. We still have six minutes left. Now, I need you to turn around and run as fast as you can out of this building, okay?”

Noah stood up and moved the hair out of Madeline’s face while looking at her affectionately.

“What are you waiting for? Run!” Madeline seized his arm and prepared to run out of the building.

She was cursing him secretly for being so unbothered.

Why is he being so affectionate when the bomb is literally going to explode?

Noah broke away from her grip and stood still in the same place.

“I still have some stuff to do. You must leave first.”

“No way, we are in this together. What else do you need to do? I can help you!” Madeline said determinedly and proceeded to grab his arm again.

“Madeline, I can’t go.”

Noah’s calmness made her anxious.

“What do you mean you can’t go? You… why are you wearing my bracelet?” She sensed a premonition once she said the bracelet on his wrist.

“Lone Wolf altered the bracelet into the bomb’s timer. Madeline, please listen to me…we don’t have much time left.”

Noah explained and tried to convince her patiently in a gentle manner.

However, Madeline was instantly enraged by what he said.

“No way! Why do you want to be the hero so badly? It’s just a bomb. I will defuse it!”

Stupid Noah, does he think that it’s very cool to attach the bomb to himself?

That is an actual bomb that will kill both of us in a few minutes!

“Madeline…”

“Shut up! I will get rid of this bomb, and we will be alive together. Otherwise, we will die together. Do you have some kind of savior complex? I will never owe you my life!”

Madeline shut him down and started to analyze the bomb that was attached to his body.

She was in immense panic, and she could not control her trembling hands

when working on defusing the bomb.

The clock is ticking, and she is running out of time. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

“Madeline, Lone Wolf’s target is me, and I just want you to be alive.” Noah stared at Madeline, who was analyzing the bomb, and felt a warmth in his heart.

However, time was ticking, and he could not help but get uneasy.

If Madeline doesn’t go now, it’ll be too late!

He reached out and held Madeline’s shaking hands while attempting to convince her to leave.

“Noah, do you know that I want you to be alive too?”

Before he could get the words out of his

mouth, she raised her head and looked at him with pitiful eyes.

“You said that you’re going to repay me. Why are you doing this to yourself? Liar! I shouldn’t have trusted you!”

Madeline scolded him furiously, but her hands were still fumbling with the bomb.

When she lived overseas, she was trained on how to defuse a bomb along with Little Thirteen.

However, she has never tried it on a real bomb, not to mention that it was modified last minute with her bracelet. So, she had no idea how to defuse it, and that made her feel extremely agitated.

Noah was stunned by her words, and it took him a while to reply her.

“Madeline, do you forgive me?”

“It depends on whether we can survive this time. If I die with you, I will haunt you when I turn into a ghost!”

“Okay then, I’ll take that as yes.” Noah grinned.

Madeline ignored him and proceeded to fumble on the black gauze that was tied onto his body with her shaky hands.

The gauze was not big, but it was obvious that it contained explosives.

But they had no idea how strong the explosion would be…

Madeline could not find a way to stop the bomb. She was already calculating how to reduce the bomb’s explosion to save his life.

Lone Wolf is very unpredictable.

She should not underestimate the power of the bomb despite its small size.

What should I do?

She felt extremely on edge.

Three minutes left…

“Noah, don’t you have many agents and bodyguards working for your family? Were they trained on how to defuse a bomb?”

“Yes, of course.”

“Hurry up and tell me what you know!”

“This bomb looks like it’s assembled randomly, but it is the latest txt850 from the dark market. It’s small and easy to

carry around, but its explosion is ten times stronger than a normal bomb. So, when the timer reaches zero, the entire building will become a wasteland.”

Noah sat on the floor and described the unimposing-looking bomb.

In fact, it was highly flexible, and it could be activated when attached to a timer. Once activated, it could no longer be stopped.

However, he chose to exclude this part of the description.

Besides, this bomb has a unique name called “Regretless”.

Madeline felt uneasy after listening to that.

“Why would you wear this on when you knew how dangerous it was? Are you an

idiot?”

“I know, right? I seem like an idiot in front of you.”

“Madeline, please listen to me. Get out now before it’s too late. Please live for the children, okay?”

“Please listen to me too, okay? We still have 2 minutes, don’t give up. You haven’t met Mackenzie yet, she has a nasty temper, and even the Little Devil, Thomas, is afraid of her. If she knows that I am dead, she would probably dig me out of the grave just to tell her a bedtime story…”

“Mackenzie?”
