Aggressive Wife

Chapter 140

Dylan shook his head and decided he could never have guessed this was the truth in his wildest dreams. He smiled and said, “Of course! Pick anything you like for your present.”

“You are the best, Uncle Dylan! I knew you wouldn’t say no,” Thomas was elated, “I have already picked something. All you have to do is scan this QR code to make payment!”

Dylan was caught off guard. The kid was unbelievable! He tried to ask Noah for help, and he realized Noah was stepping into the elevator with Colton.

“Wait for me!” Dylan ran toward them and slipped into the elevator before the elevator door closed. He took a deep breath and gathered himself.

“It’s the real Colt, right? You are hurt,” Dylan studied Colton’s face, “Let me take a look.”

Once they reached the lower floor, Noah and Dylan quickly brought Colton to the treatment room. Before he could examine Colton, Noah pulled him aside.

“What is it?” Dylan raised an eyebrow, “Please don’t tell me you are trying to talk me into paying for Thomas’ present. We have known each other for almost a month. I think I deserve at least a more affordable present!”

Noah simply ignored what he said. He was smiling from ear to ear. “Dylan, I have two kids with Madeline. Two kids!”

Dylan sighed. Is this guy for real here? Is he trying to boast about having a happy family in front of me, a pathetically single man? “Yes, I see you have brought your two kids here.”

Even though he felt a hint of jealousy, Dylan had not the heart to criticize an overjoyed Noah. It was a rare sight to see Noah this happy.

“Are you happy for me? I feel so happy, Dylan. I am on cloud nine!” Noah exclaimed. Dylan nodded, “Of course! Does this mean you are getting back together with Madeline?”

“I would love to! She is and will always be my one and only wife,” said Noah. Dylan carefully replied, “Well, you know Maddie. She can be very stubborn, so you may want to be ready to deal with it, Noah.”

Dylan wanted to add that Madeline might not forgive Noah easily but stopped himself. Noah was determined, “I know, and I will not give up.”

“I am glad you have made up your mind,” said Dylan, “No matter what you want to do, I will support you, Noah.”

Dylan was however secretly worried. He remembered the last time Madeline visited for a check-up, and she seemed restless. She told him she would never fall in love with Noah again because loving Noah would only destroy her life.

At the time, Dylan thought she was only saying things because she was upset. However, the next day she was blamed for the accident with the Quincy family, and a few days later, she was gone, leaving Colton behind.

Colton was the only reason Noah kept moving on. Dylan’s heart ached for the two thinking about the past. He sighed and entered the treatment room.

The boy was waiting quietly on the bed. He smiled at Dylan as he entered. “Hi, Uncle Dylan.”

“Oh my, Colt! You are finally talking!” Dylan was pleasantly surprised, “I knew you could talk! You simply did not want to talk.”

Colton was quiet again and let Dylan examine him. In the five years growing up with the Quincy family, his daddy was not always there, but Dylan had always been there for Colton.

Whenever Colton fell sick, Dylan would accompany him and talk to him, even though Colton had never replied to him. Those were the moments when Colton felt the most relieved when he was younger. Dylan could go on and on, but he had so much patience with Colton like no other.

“Colt, who did this to you? Can you tell me?” Dylan removed the bandages on Colton’s arms and legs. Colton’s wounds were healing, but it was obvious he had sustained serious injuries.

Thankfully, Colton’s wounds were treated with the best medicines, so he was healing quickly. However, his body was weak and there was a risk of organ failure; his heart was especially at risk. Dylan was worried.

Colton simply shook his head and did not answer. Dylan did not press on, as he could see Colton was upset about the topic. “It’s okay if you don’t want to talk about it, Colt. Let me help to dress your wounds again with new medicines, and you can get upstairs to have pancakes your daddy makes with Thomas. Sounds good?”

“Great,” replied Colton. He paused briefly and continued, “Uncle Dylan.” Dylan glanced up, “Yes?” Colton said softly, “Thank you.”

“Don’t mention it! We are a family,” Dylan was thrilled. He would have teared up if he wasn’t dressing Colton’s wounds, and tears could increase the risk of infection. “Though I am very happy to hear you say that.”

Dylan was over the moon. Not only did he get to hear Colton talking, but he also got to be thanked by Colton. He felt like the luckiest man on earth.

He carefully dressed Colton’s wounds and went to get a smart wheelchair from his laboratory. It was his latest invention; it fit an adult, and its safety belt was adjustable to fit all body sizes.

There was also a wireless keyboard that allowed the user to control direction and speed at the user’s fingertips. It was perfect for someone like Colton, who had sustained injuries to the limbs and could not move around freely.

Furthermore, the smart wheelchair could be activated by voice and was able to locate the user from their voice. Whenever summoned, it would automatically locate the user’s position, so the user could conveniently use it.

Dylan had also deliberately chosen a Baymax design to make the smart wheelchair appear more adorable. He grabbed the smart wheelchair and pushed it to Colton. Colton was delighted to see the smart wheelchair.

Despite its cute appearance, the smart wheelchair was very practical and useful. Colton could move around freely with it and might even be able to visit his mommy more often. This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Uncle Dylan, can I try it?” Colton was excited.
