Aggressive Wife

Chapter 129

“You pray so fervently. Does your God know that you’re a killer?”

“Mr. Quincy, with God as my witness, I have my nice moments when I kill. Don’t you think so?” Lone Wolf let out an exaggerated smile before abruptly cutting the distance between him and Noah.

Lone Wolf and Noah were about the same height. With Lone Wolf drawing close, his face was inches away from Noah’s.

He thought he could smell the fear from an untouchable man like Noah.

It was a pity that Noah was unfazed. Noah even thought Lone Wolf was childish.

“Aren’t you bored playing the same game after all these years?”

“Didn’t you realize I’m better skilled than before? Wasn’t it a nice surprise?” Lone Wolf refuted.

“ME-3, the latest model of the invisibility cloak, works fine.”

“Oops. You found me out. This is the all-new equipment of my organization. What do you think?”

“It’s to be expected from a product of the Quincies.”

“Huh?” Lone Wolf was surprised.

Nevertheless, he got over his emotions in no time.

Only, he was no longer joking. Lone Wolf was serious for once.

“I didn’t know the Quincies were into research and development of high tech.”

Iciness gathered in Noah’s profound eyes as he fixated on the man. There was a murderous tension in the air.

“Lone Wolf, the Quincies are no longer the same family five years ago. You should know by now that you shouldn’t go after my people on my turf.”

While there was a placidness in Noah’s tone, his presence spoke of command.

Standing in God’s house, Noah appeared more like the ruler of the world.

“Why so serious? You and I are old friends. We can talk. Your arrival here proves your willingness to trade. Did you bring the contract along?”

Lone Wolf smiled pretentiously to lighten the mood as Noah flared up with bloodthirst.

“I found Madeline.”

“Oh? How is the pretty lady doing? Is she still alive?” Lone Wolf remained nonchalant and frolic on the surface, but he could not say that he was not disappointed.

Lone Wolf knew that Noah would find Madeline sooner or later, but he did not estimate it to be so soon.

It was a miscalculation on his part.

“Now that you’re with leverage, you can forget acquiring Quinton Corporation’s shares. I might consider giving Lone Fox to you if you can tell me who your client is.”

“Mr. Quincy, I told you that I’m a man of work ethics. I will never reveal my client.”

“In that case, I’m sorry I have to do this,” Noah said and waved his arm.

The bodyguards outside brought in the unconscious Lone Fox.

“Seeing that we’re old buddies, I’ll allow you to see Lone Fox one last time.”

The sight of his pale and unconscious brother made Lone Wolf unnerved for a change. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“What are you trying to pull, Noah?”

“Give me a name or you can watch Lone Fox die.

“You might not be familiar with the terrain around here since you don’t come to Imperia often. There’s a cliff with the most mesmerizing view a mile behind the church. It’ll prove fatal for anybody to fall off from there.”

As reluctance continued to plague Lone Wolf, Noah patiently made the circumstances well known to him.

“Do you think I won’t come after you if you kill Lone Fox?” Lone Wolf stared Noah straight in the eyes like a vicious beast.

“You won’t. I’ll make it a family meeting in hell if you retaliate.”

The archers lurking on the roof of the church showed themselves and pointed at Lone Wolf with arrows drawn. They were ready to fire at command.

“Ha! Do you think these people can stop me?”

Lone Wolf confidently licked his lips like a beast ready to launch an attack.

Before he could fight, an arrow came at him from the right.

Lone Wolf extended his arm to grab the arrow. The specially made arrow broke in half in his grasp.

“Is that all you got, Noah? You underestimate me.”

“Oh, really?” Noah was not in a hurry to refute. In fact, he let out a rather intriguing faint smile.

The grin somehow gave Lone Wolf the butterflies.

Something was not right.

“Take him away!”

Ignoring Lone Wolf, Noah offhandedly gave the orders to his men. Lone Fox was dragged out of there.

“Noah! You…”

Lone Wolf was not having it. He was about to voice his disapproval when he realized that he lost sensation in his arm.

The numbing feeling spread quickly throughout his body. His limbs felt like logs that were no longer receptive to transmission from his brain.

Besides, the unfeelingness reached his lungs. Lone Wolf had a hard time breathing.

“Did you play dirty, Noah?” Lone Wolf fell on one of his knees as he could not rely on his body weight on his feet. He could barely keep his body steady.

Lifting his chin, he looked daggers at Noah.

“You let your guard down. Do you think I would play fair with a man who lay a hand on my woman?”

“Ha, Noah. Does the pretty lady know you’re in love with her? She probably won’t be impressed even if you give up your fortune after what you did to her. Why obsess over the tiny details?”

Lone Wolf feebly sat on the floor as his heart pumped slower. He looked at Noah in confusion.

His tone bore a clear hint of taunt.

Lone Wolf was in Imperia when the incident occurred.

Back then, Lone Wolf was impressed by Noah’s ruthlessness. Noah showed no mercy even to his wife and kids.

Nevertheless, Lone Wolf soon found out that things were not as simple as they seemed.

Noah went into a decadent spiral for a while after Madeline passed away.

Seeing that Noah was so pitiful then, Lone Wolf decided against taking a few hit jobs on him.

Had he known, he would have taken the money and finished Noah off. At least, Lone Wolf would not be in the position he was in right now.

Lone Wolf was filled with regret.

“Madeline has a choice to appreciate it or not. No one is allowed to harm her, including me the moment she has come back.”

Noah spoke with resolution and earnestness.

“Fine. You have guts. I’ll offer a gift to you when the pretty lady decides to forgive you.”

Propping himself up, Lone Wolf struggled to utter the words.

He knew nothing about love.

Still, Lone Wolf somehow believed that Noah had found his true love.

Lone wolf was interested to follow their love story.

“Alright. You can live if you tell me the name of your client.”

“You can just kill me. I’ve been a killer for long enough. I’ve never been killed before. At least, I get to experience it now.”

Resigning to his fate, Lone Wolf lay on the ground and refused to cooperate.

“Alright. Your wish is my command.”

Noah was happy to oblige.

The security personnel in the back immediately went up and pulled Lone Wolf from the ground.

Lone Wolf did not put up a fight. As he was dragged past Noah, Lone Wolf reached out and grabbed Noah by the arm.

“Noah, have you found your kid who fell off the cliff?”
