Chapter 35
Noah went straight into his study the moment he got home.
Staring at the report on his computer screen, Noah grew solemn and frustrated. With his finger tappingon the rosewood table, his eerie voice ensued. “Is this all you gathered from Imperia’s charitableassociation?”
Wayne hung his head low as exasperation fleeted across his eyes. “Sir, the data on Imperia’scharitable association was wiped clean. We couldn’t retrieve much information. I suspect Ms. Grantadopted some sort of preventive measure.”
He went on to drop another revelation. “Besides, the data was destroyed close to the time you calledfor the investigation. In other words, we have a mole among us.”
Stopping the consistent tapping, Noah narrowed his eyes at the glass on the table. “Was there anyoneelse around when I told you to look into the matter?”
Wayne gave it a thought before replying with hesitation, “We were walking by Colton’s bedroom…”
However, Colton was only five. How could a five-year-old be in touch with Madeline?
Not to mention, the pair did not know each other.
Noah eliminated the possibility. His dark eyes spoke of obscurity. “She’s more than what I thought shewas capable of. She even has eyes on me.
“Leave no stones unturned. I want a detailed investigation of every person we ever came in contactwith.
“You can ship yourself to Alewell if you come back empty.”
Wayne was feeling weak in the knees by the time he left the study in dejection.
For the sake of his livelihood and not going to Alewell, he must replace the mole!
These people had the audacity to play dirty right under Mr. Quincy’s nose. Well, they would get whatwas coming for them.
Noah barely got much sleep in the last few days. Plagued by a headache, he rubbed his temples andplanned to turn off his computer and get some sleep. It was then he noticed activity on the infraredsurveillance on the rooftop.
Something glided past the monitoring screen, but it was enough to warrant attention.
Noah was alarmed.
He immediately turned on the thermal sensor system installed in the residence and pinpointed thelocation on the rooftop. Meanwhile, a large display screen rolled up against the wall in front of him.
The huge screen displayed eight camera angles to give a clear view of the rooftop.
Noah turned on the infrared sensors on his computer and synced them with thermal sensors in anattempt to track the location of the abnormal activity.
He was certain that they had an intruder.
Noah had all his bases covered!
Fixating on the looming anomaly, Noah
quickly got a rough idea of the person’s whereabouts.
“Wayne, intruder on the west wing of the roof!”
It turned Noah’s frown upside down to see the intruder fall right into his flawless trap.
Noah could finally see the person who had been causing mischief in his territory!
On the rooftop.
Madeline searched long and hard, but she could not replace a loophole through the mass of laser sensors.
Out of options, she braced herself and planted a computing paradigm into the laser beam spot.
It should disrupt the system and create a breach in the web of lasers to pave a way for her.
Nevertheless, it was not in her calculations that the Quincies’ security system had been upgraded tothe maximum. Madeline was discovered the moment she reprogrammed the system.
Moreover, the laser sensors were equipped to attack thermal energy. The mere brush against the beamburned a hole through her leather jacket.
Madeline would be a walking target if she forced her way through.
Did Noah have a gold mine buried within the house?
Must he install such a high-tech security system?
Madeline cussed him out in her mind.
She was a sitting duck, caught between a rock and a hard place.
Madeline became nervous as the footsteps of the security details grew close. She was seconds awayfrom having her location compromised.
Was she about to get caught?
No. She needed to figure a way out of this!
Thinking on her feet, Madeline found a hiding place in a blind spot from the infrared detection beforethrowing out her jacket.
The laser beam pierced through the thick leather jacket, setting the garment on fire in midair.
It did not take long before the jacket. was reduced to nothing but ashes.
The flame might not have been burning for long, but it was a clear sign to the oncoming bodyguards.
“Here!”
“Hurry!”
With the bodyguards swooping in on the scene, Madeline noticed the sensors were shut down whenthe men in black set foot on the rooftop.
Here came her chance!
She threw herself off the roof the moment the laser sensors were shut off. With the help of a carabiner,Madeline leaped over several roofs and disappeared into the night.
By the time the bodyguard got an idea of what was going on, all they saw was Madeline’s recedingfigure.
Noah caught everything on surveillance in the study.
It was a shame that he did not get a look at the person’s face, albeit he could make an educated guessthat it was a
woman.
It was a sneaky woman!
While deep in thought, Noah’s mind was suddenly taken over by Madeline’s face.
His profound eyes gathered ruthlessness.
Was it her?
Noah was unsure, but the thought of
Madeline made him irritable.
Since Angie refused to travel abroad, Wayne left her be and pulled out the security personnel outsidethe ward.
Lying in bed in despair, Angie stared blankly at the ceiling.
She was done for. It was over. Noah wanted to break up with her. There was no way she could becomethe most esteemed woman in Imperia.
The thought was nagging at her and sucking the life out of her like an endless black hole.
Despair did not even scratch the surface of describing her feelings now.
The hate comments and dirt on her online showed no signs of slowing
down. She could sense that Noah was
giving up on her for real this time!
Lost in her fear, Angie was only pulled out of the depths of the abyss when Suzette turned up in fulldisguise.
“Mom, Noah doesn’t want me anymore. Why doesn’t he want me? We were doing fine before!” Thesight of Suzette was a lifeline to Angie. The girl bawled and let it all out.
“What do you mean, Angie? Mr. Quincy doesn’t want you anymore? What on earth is going on?”
Suzette came to Angie, bearing a glimmer of hope, but the news came as a bombshell. Her heart sankas her nerves got the better of her.
Her worst nightmare had come true!
“N-Noah said the wedding’s off. He
doesn’t want me anymore. What should I do, Mom? Tell me! What should I do!”
Clasping against Suzette, Angie whined irrationally.
“Slow down, Angie. Tell me what happened between you and Mr. Quincy? Why doesn’t he want you?Did he replace out that you threw Colton off a cliff?”
