Chapter 948
One of the doctors was so dense that he took an anesthetic over and said, “We’re going to begin the bone marrow transplantation now. Please get out of here, sir.”“To hell with that.”Noah swung his feet and broke three of the male doctor’s rib bones. The latter slipped on the floor and groaned out of pain. At the next moment, several hundred bodyguards he hired from the security firm surrounded and sealed off the hospital. All of a sudden, Archibald’s twenty-over bodyguards were as insignificant as a speck of sand! The moment Gladys regained her freedom, she went over to Gwynn and undid her bonds. She broke down crying. “It’s a good thing that Noah is here in time! Otherwise, something horrible would’ve happened to you.”Gwynn’s eyes were filled with tears. She had made plans with Noah to go to Hucksburgh in three days, but none of them thought Archibald would be this insane.Noah didn’t see the need to play nice anymore. He took his time taking off the suit jacket, discar
Chapter 949
Every member of the staff in Hyacinth Hospital was trying their best to save Ollie. Fortunately, the little boy was a tough cookie. He gave everyone a scare, but he ultimately survived without suffering any permanent damage to his body. However, he was getting weaker and weaker. Talia held her son and cried her heart out. Now that she had lost her reputation, she had also lost her right to voice her opinion among the Templetons. She had no choice but to take Archibald’s side.She started vocally blaming Gwynn for not looking at the big picture and keeping him happy.He was feeling guilty, to begin with. So, he couldn’t bear to hear what Talia was saying. Roaring at her, he said, “If you have the time to be sleeping with men out there, you might as well keep Ollie and Jolie company. How else do you think Noah managed to set you up?”Talia felt such intense shame from being lectured in front of everyone that she could just die!With that said, she didn’t truly want to die. So,

Noah looked at Gwynn and said tenderly, “Stay here and don’t wake Holly up. If she asks about me, just tell her I’m on a work trip.”He simply couldn’t worry enough about them and continued to give her advice on what to do. On the other hand, she teared up and remembered everything he said. Then, he left with Officer Kingston before lunch while she stood on the balcony and watched the police car drive off into the distance.She counted the days until his return.Seven days came and passed. It felt like a century for her. However, he still hadn't come back to her. She tried and failed to see him at the prison. The warden said to her, “Mr. Noah is tied to a serious case.”He didn’t so much as blush when he made blatant lies about her husband. She knew, deep down, that this was Archibald’s doing!She also knew that the old man wasn’t about to release Noah unless she went to him and begged to trade her husband’s life with her bone marrow.However, she wasn’t going to do that.

It was the middle of the night. Archibald sat in his study, wearing a gloomy expression. He asked Saul, who was standing next to him, “Did Noah admit to committing the crimes?”Saul was freshening the cup of tea for him. Then, he smiled faintly and said, “It’s such a big case. Why would he admit to having done anything? The way I heard it, they beat him to a pulp, but he simply wouldn’t back down.”The old man snorted. “He’s a stubborn one.”Taking the cup of tea, he blew on it and said, “We have to use some unconventional means against stubborn mules like him. Haven’t those guys done an exceptional job at extracting information before? Tell them to do anything necessary and force a confession out of him.”Saul smiled. “Are you sure, Mr. Archibald?”The old man put down the cup and asked, “Why do you seem to be concerned about him so much?”Saul waved his hand and denied it. “I’m just worried that doing it will ruin your relationship with Ms. Gwynn. After all, she’s really doin

It was a winter night. The wind was so biting that it pierced his weary bones. Archibald stood in the hallway, experiencing the kind of helplessness he had never felt in his entire life. Then, he heard a voice from behind. “Are you Mr. Archibald?”“Who goes there?”He turned around abruptly and looked at the guy. It turned out it was a delivery man. He was holding a wreath made of fresh flowers. Handing it to the old man gingerly, he said, “This is from Ms. Gwynn. She’s sorry for your loss!”It was a wreath…A storm brewed in the old man’s eyes. Tossing the wreath onto the floor, Archibald lost his cool and stomped on it, crushing it beyond recognition. He knew, deep down, that it was a warning from Gwynn. If he continued to exert pressure on Noah, then she’d do something to Anderson again. She was truly capable of destroying someone’s psyche, instead of killing him outright.Saul rushed over, saw what happened and was shocked. “What happened here?”Raising his head sli

Gwynn merely slept for a couple of hours.She looked after Lorian and Holly as usual. She was putting clothes on her little girl when the latter said she missed her dad. Leaning on her mom’s shoulder, she said longingly, “I miss Dad.”Gwynn felt a lump in her throat.She soothed her little girl in a tender tone, “Dad’s on a work trip. He misses us a lot, too.”However, Lorian knew a little about the adult’s affairs. He hesitated a little before posing the question. “When’s Dad coming back?”Gwynn was stumped for a moment. Then, she reached out and touched Lorian. Her voice was a little choked up when she spoke. “He’ll be back before New Year! I’m sure of it.”Lorian decided to drop the matter.He waited until he was alone before he wiped tears away in the room. Gwynn stood at the door for a long time, but she decided to walk inside eventually.He saw her coming in and turned his head sideways, stubbornly. He asked, “Is Dad not coming home anymore? Is he dead?”The young bo

Noah responded lightly, “I get it. I’ll seek revenge from the one who gave the orders.”The prison guard felt better at that. He even gave Noah an ointment for the latter’s wounds and kept him company for a while.All of a sudden, Noah asked softly, “Did she cry?”“Huh?”The prison guard was stunned. Then, he had no idea what Noah meant. After all, Gwynn was a wife to a wealthy man. She’d never cry for her husband. In fact, he thought she’d be thrilled if Noah died while she was still middle-aged.Noah thought to himself how the prison guard didn’t understand the love he had with his wife at all.…It was two in the afternoon when Gwynn sent both of her kids to Mason’s place. She told Zoe that she needed to go to Hucksburgh. The latter was against the idea and wanted to go in her stead.“Mason is figuring out a way to spring Noah out of jail, too! It’s too dangerous for you to go to Hucksburgh alone, Gwynn. Noah would be worried about you as well.”Gwynn responded, “Actually,

Kim reserved the top two floors of the Hilton Hotel in Hucksburgh. About a hundred security guards protected Gwynn and watched over the exits at all times. She had just finished her work in the presidential suite and reported to Gwynn, “I’ve made all the necessary arrangements, Ms. Gwynn. You’ll be perfectly safe. I’ll go over to Charles’s villa and give him your business card. I think he’ll pay respect to Mr. Noah and agree to meet you.”Underneath the crystal chandelier, Gwynn rubbed her eyebrows. She said softly, “You must’ve thought that I was afraid of putting myself in danger because of all the security guards I brought with me. That’s not the case, though.”Kim hadn’t the foggiest clue what she was talking about. She smiled faintly. “Now that Noah is imprisoned, Charles isn’t going to entertain me. For that matter, even Archibald wouldn’t do anything to me now. He thinks I’d run out of options and go back and grovel to him. “That’s why I brought these security guards w
