Aggresive Wife

Chapter 306

After Madeline saved Nancy and the young man, she brought them to an apartment she had just bought.

"You two can stay here for now and think carefully about what you want to do next."

The young man looked worriedly at Nancy. Even though Nancy was disheveled, there was a stronger determination in her eyes.

She had slaved herself in the Hann family for many years, including taking care of Brian's parents and running Hann Corp. That was how they repaid her!

That was when she realized she had no reason to be civil with them.

"Ms. Madeline, I heard that Suzette Grant is your stepmother. How do you want her to die?"

Nancy had read about the complicated relationship between Madeline and Suzette in the newspaper.

She thought Madeline had helped her multiple times so that they could get back at Suzette.

"You're an intelligent woman, Ms. Trench. I'm not asking for much. I'll be happy as long as Suzette is driven out of the household."

Of course, Madeline wanted more than to take revenge on Suzette, but she was not going to tell Nancy too much.

All she knew was that her grudge against Suzette and the Hann family was more than what Nancy

might have.

"You'll just have to wait and see," Nancy said viciously.

Madeline was satisfied with her response. She nodded and asked another question, "Do you have the full employee list of Hann Corp?"

"There are at least ten thousand employees in Hann Corp. Are you looking for anyone in particular?" Nancy had been working in Hann Corp for many years. Even though she was managing most of the internal operations of the company, she did not hold many company shares.

"I would like a copy of the list if you have one. That will be very appreciated." Madeline did not answer her question.

Nancy nodded and said she would send the list to her as soon as possible.

However, aside from knowing Madeline as Noah Quincy's wife, Nancy did not know much about her. When Madeline asked her for the name list, the image of a certain person appeared in her mind.

Right before Madeline left, Nancy stopped her.

"Ms. Madeline, the general manager of Hann Corp is Connor Yates. He was once Gordon Quincy's best employee until he was driven out of the company. He has been working with Hann Corp ever since."

Madeline had been wondering about Joseph's reason for cooperating with Hann Corp and even

spending a lot of effort inserting Suzette into the company.

She did not expect to obtoin thot surprising piece of informotion from Noncy.

"Understood. If you need ony help from me, you con look for Albert." Modeline osked Albert to give Noncy his nome cord.

Noncy wos very groteful.

After leoving the oportment, Modeline wonted to go to Golden Dome Internotionol to osk Nooh obout Connor. She did not expect to see Bruno lying in o puddle of his own blood. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

"Ms. Modeline, ore we soving him?" Albert hesitoted ond osked.

She nodded. Albert quickly corried Bruno into the cor.

At the hospitol, the doctor ron o full body check-up on Bruno ond discovered severol lethol knife wounds. Any loter ond Bruno would hove been deod.

After Bruno woke up, he wolfed down his food while Modeline wotched him eot. She felt like she borely knew him onymore.

Her "fother" hod never shown her ony love since she wos young. Insteod, he ollowed Suzette ond her doughter to bully her. After she grew up, he betroyed ond hormed her multiple times just for money.

There wos not o troce of fomiliol love between them.

However, Bruno hod been trying to contoct her lotely. Did he do so becouse of money, or did he hove some other objective?

"Didn't I give you money lost time? Whot hoppened?" Modeline sot on o choir ond glored ot him.

Eorlier, ot the foshion show, Bruno hod uncovered o conspirocy involving o foshion model with molicious intentions. The foshion show wos successful becouse of him. Even though she did not thonk him personolly, she osked Albert to give him o sum of money os o reword.

One million dollors wos enough for him to spend for some time.

"Your Uncle Kingsley hos been seriously ill. I gove him the money for his medicol fees," Bruno soid before gulping down the rest of the chicken soup ond wiping his mouth briefly with his shirt sleeve.

He no longer looked like the big boss he once wos.

"Spending money on other people? Thot's o surprise," Modeline soid mockingly. As for os she knew him, Bruno Gront would only know how to toke money from other people. He would rother die thon give someone else o cent more thon they deserved.

It wos surprising to Modeline thot Bruno would willingly hond over o million dollors to his butler for his medicol fees.

"Kingsley fell ill becouse of me. He didn't obondon me in my time of need, so I hove to help him when he needs me," Bruno soid determinedly ond nodded.

She did not expect to obtain that surprising piece of information from Nancy.

"Understood. If you need any help from me, you can look for Albert." Madeline asked Albert to give Nancy his name card.

Nancy was very grateful.

After leaving the apartment, Madeline wanted to go to Golden Dome International to ask Noah about Connor. She did not expect to see Bruno lying in a puddle of his own blood.

"Ms. Madeline, are we saving him?" Albert hesitated and asked.

She nodded. Albert quickly carried Bruno into the car.

At the hospital, the doctor ran a full body check-up on Bruno and discovered several lethal knife wounds. Any later and Bruno would have been dead.

After Bruno woke up, he wolfed down his food while Madeline watched him eat. She felt like she barely knew him anymore.

Her "father" had never shown her any love since she was young. Instead, he allowed Suzette and her daughter to bully her. After she grew up, he betrayed and harmed her multiple times just for money.

There was not a trace of familial love between them.

However, Bruno had been trying to contact her lately. Did he do so because of money, or did he have some other objective?

"Didn't I give you money last time? What happened?" Madeline sat on a chair and glared at him.

Earlier, at the fashion show, Bruno had uncovered a conspiracy involving a fashion model with malicious intentions. The fashion show was successful because of him. Even though she did not thank him personally, she asked Albert to give him a sum of money as a reward.

One million dollars was enough for him to spend for some time.

"Your Uncle Kingsley has been seriously ill. I gave him the money for his medical fees," Bruno said before gulping down the rest of the chicken soup and wiping his mouth briefly with his shirt sleeve.

He no longer looked like the big boss he once was.

"Spending money on other people? That's a surprise," Madeline said mockingly. As far as she knew him, Bruno Grant would only know how to take money from other people. He would rather die than give someone else a cent more than they deserved.

It was surprising to Madeline that Bruno would willingly hand over a million dollars to his butler for his medical fees.

"Kingsley fell ill because of me. He didn't abandon me in my time of need, so I have to help him when he needs me," Bruno said determinedly and nodded.

"Also, why were you near my house? Did you want something from me?" That was the extent of Madeline's curiosity.

"I didn't mean to collapse there. I wanted to look for you. It's not because I wanted money from you, but

I wanted to give you something I stole from Suzette. I wanted to steal some money from her, but she's even poorer than I am now." As Bruno said that, he took out a document from behind him.

Madeline flipped through the first few pages. It was a proposal for a makeup item.

Hann Corp was planning to focus their human and financial resources on building a new cosmetics brand. They wanted to reduce the Quinton Corporation's market share in that domain.

Madeline could see that the proposal was well-done. If the plan carried through, it would have been a great success.

"I also overheard Suzette mentioning something that Joseph said: Once the plan is put into action, he would take over the businesses under the Quinton Corporation while Noah is distracted," Bruno said sincerely while staring at Madeline.

He might not want to admit he was wrong or apologize to Madeline, but he wanted to regain Madeline's favor.

He was sick of being destitute and going hungry, and he knew that Madeline was a lifeline.

What happened earlier today was a good example. If not for Madeline, he would have been dead on the streets by now.

She was his ticket to luxury for the rest of his life!

Madeline remained impassive, and Bruno could not tell if she believed him. He thumped his chest anxiously and said, "Everything I said is true. Trust me!"

"Rest well," Madeline said, refusing to talk about her thoughts on the issue. A while later, she and Albert left the hospital room.

Once they stepped into the elevator, Madeline handed the document to Albert. "Go and investigate if Bruno is telling the truth."

"Yes," Albert replied while taking the document. He did not open and read it immediately, but instead carefully placed it in his briefcase. "Ms. Madeline, Uranica doesn't agree that you should confront Trenton head-on."

Madeline frowned. "They promised they wouldn't interfere in my matters."

"They're worried about you," Albert said. He was sent to protect Madeline, and he did not know if Madeline fully trusted him.
