Did you spot anyone? Noah askest
No, whoever was here is long gone, Another man answered. “We found a bunch of our guys knocked out at the back.”
S***it!” Noah cursed under his breath. He couldn’t believe he had come so close to losing Felicin hat was K’s purpose in doing this to scare him! That b***rd Tm going to kill him.

Noah sighed, going inside and collapsing onto the couch. There was really nothing else he could do.
Some men were in the kitchen cleaning up the mess while others searched for hidden cameras that might have been planted in the house. It was quite comical, and Felicity would have been jaw-dropped if she were awake to see this.
Most of the men were aware that Noah was married but hadn’t met Felicity before, except for those tasked with guarding her. It was quite sad that they had to meet their young madam under such dire circumstances. Their hatred for Mr. K only grew with this incident.
Is the young madam alright, sir?” One man summoned the courage to ask.
Noah lifted his eyes and nodded, “Yes, she is, just a little shaken. The doctor is attending to her right now.”
“I saw a knife on the floor next to where we found her. It seems she tried to fight off K,” The man commented. “She is
Noah mustered a small smile. His Felicity was the strongest.
strong.
After some time, the doctor came downstairs with his tools, looking a little intimidated by the number of men he found in the house but tried to conceal it
“Your wife is calm now. She’s awake and wants to see you,” He informed Noah.
Noah jumped up and rushed to the room without thinking twice. He opened his bedroom door to see Felicity sitting upright on the bed, staring into space. She only lifted her eyes when she heard him come in.
“How are you feeling?” Noah asked, sitting next to her.
“You have a lot of explaining to do, Felicity blurted out.
Noah’s face fell, finally realising the gravity of the situation he was in. He didn’t think she was ready to hear the truth. He struggled to find the right words to say. “1-1,”
“Do you know that the man who came here was the waiter I met at the hotel, Kagen?” Felicity continued, her voice filled with confusion and fear. “I think he followed me here. But why? I don’t know him from anywhere.”
“What did he say?” Noah asked, his voice barely above a whisper. “Did he hurt you?”
Felicity shook her head, “No, he didn’t. He just left shards where he knew I would step on. He was spouting nonsense about how he watched me on the news and how I made a mistake by marrying you. It was scary. I think he knows me

Noah furrowed his brow, “You said you think he knows you?”
Felicity sighed, nodding, “Yes, he was talking as if he knew me personally, like a long-lost lover or something

“He didn’t say anything about me Noah aded, confusion etchell on his face.
Felicity shook her head. Was he supposed so I think he was leg for me
Noah was stunned toto silence. He had driven there thinking his decret was exposed and it was all over, but finding out that K was not even there because of him left him baffled Was this some sort of scare tactic K**s using?
Vet some rest. I’ll being you something to eat, Noah said softly bending down to kiss her forehead. As he moved to leave, T-bicity caught his arm.
“What is that?” she asked, pointing at his collar.
He looked down to see the splatters of blood on his shirt-Paul s blood.
“Is that my blood” Trs sorry for ruining your shirt. It looks expensive, Felicity apologised, oblivious to the truth.
Noah scratched the back of his head nervously. “It’s fine, don’t worry” He left the room quickly, a whirlwind of emotions churning inside hân
Downstairs, the house had been cleaned spotless, and even the faint smell of stew wafted through the air. The doctor, whom Noah thought had already left, was sitting at the dining table, sipping steaming pasta.
“Is she okay?” Axel asked when Noah came downstairs.
“She’s fine,” Noah responded absentmindedly, gazing at the doctor. “What is he still doing here?”
We thought he could use a meal to calm his nerves. We did s**k him out a lot Axel answered, chuckling as the doctor engaged in a deep conversation with lan.
Ian was always the perfect person to distract others. He was a fluent speaker.
Noah turned from the scene, his expression turned serious, turning to face Axel. “K was here for Felicity, not me.”
“He was trying to use Felicity to threaten you,” Axel stated.
Noah shook his head. “No, he was here for her. Scaring me was just both an excuse and a bonus.”
“What?!” Axel exclaimed. They know each other?”
“Felicity doesn’t know him, but I bet he knows her. This is the second time he’s approached her without restraint, even showing her his face. I mean, none of us in this room has seen his face.”
“Did you run a background check on her?” Axel asked.
“I did, but there was nothing off about her,” Noah said in frustration.
“This is serious, dude. I’ll do another check,” Axel reassured him
“Thank you,” Noali said, giving his cousin a one-sided hug.
One of his men, wearing an apron, approached them with a tray filled with an array of dishes. “For the young madam,” the

“Take this as our apology for failing to protect her. We promise it won’t happen again,” the man said with a determined look, bowing his head before leaving
Noah was proud of his men. Each one of them was a beacon of hope for his family. They all played a part in making the

Elsworths what they were today, and he was glad they were Felicity’s shadows. He trusted that this incident wouldn’t happen again, and they would be more vigilant from now on.
All of Noah’s men were people who used to live lives worse than hell until the Elsworths saved them and gave them a purpose. They all knew the life they were getting into and willingly accepted their fates. Some had worked for Noah’s father, Finnick, before working for Noah and Axel, and every one of them was loyal. Noah could sometimes comfortably break down in their presence without feeling weak.
He smiled before taking the tray up to Felicity, but he found her already asleep. Not having the heart to wake her, he let her sleep, taking the tray back, firmly shutting the door behind him.
