Aggressive wife novel (Madeline and Noah) novel Chapter 168

Chapter 168

“Lone Wolf? What are you doing here?” Madeline said in astonishment. She struggled through the words as the thread remained tightened around her neck.

“They are coming. Quick, hide!” Lone Wolf whispered as he shoved the woman into a nearby room. Confused by the situation, Madeline’s first instinct was to follow suit and hide in a corner. Someone was rushing down the corridor as she fought to gather her breath. She could feel Lone Wolf’s uneasiness rising as the footsteps approached. Her curiosity regarding the individual’s identity was piqued.

The person must be fearsome enough to worry Lone Wolf, a top-tier killer.

When the footsteps became more distant, Lone Wolf breathed a sigh of relief and helped Madeline to her feet. “It isn’t safe here. Follow me!” the man immediately pulled her and left the room.

However, Madeline broke free from his grip before he could make it out of the door. She said in a hushed tone, “I’m not leaving until you tell me what’s going on. Also, how did you even recognize me? I thought I did a great job in disguising myself.”

“I told you I’m can’t be duped easily. I base a person’s identity on their body structure rather than their appearance.” Lone Wolf glanced at Madeline and smiled confidently.

“Body structure?”

“That’s correct. Although one’s appearance may be identical, one’s body structure is unmistakably unique. We must never kill the wrong person. Otherwise, we will not be rewarded,” Lone Wolf emphasized.

Madeline had only heard of corpse identification based on the body structure. It was her first time hearing that bodily form could be used to identify a living individual.

Lone Wolf seemed to be able to read her mind. He continued before she could probe further, “There’s no need to be alarmed. There are many things in the world that you don’t know about.”

She was shocked to hear that he knew what she was thinking. However, she soon changed the subject by remarking, “You are right. However, I’m curious why a top-notch killer like you appear here. Why are you so afraid?”

The woman quickly found a place to hide, in fear that Lone Wolf would come after her. She held her breath and stared at the elevator door. After a long period of silence, she mustered the courage to approach the elevator as it was her only way of escape.

Great, no one’s in here. Madeline cheered to herself when she realized the elevator was empty. She clicked the first level button after determining she was in the basement. Suddenly, a set of hands emerged and pried the door open just as it was about to close.

Madeline froze as she heard the familiar voice, “We meet again, pretty one.”

“You!” she immediately kicked the hand resting on the elevator door. However, Lone Wolf skillfully dodged the attack. “There’s no need to get rough. Let’s talk nicely, shall we? You’ll lose out in a fight against me.”

“What do you want?” Madeline glared at him.

Lone Wolf pushed the woman into a corner as he entered the elevator. She was restrained by the throat before she could flee. The man teased when he saw beads of sweat rolling down her face, “Don’t be scared, pretty lady. I just need a small favor from you.”
