Sorry, We're Divorced Chapter 455
Noelle hesitated for a moment. She looked troubled as she gazed at Zara. Eleanor didn't know Zara, and since the invitation was only for her, it would be impolite for her to bring someone along without prior notice. Noelle pondered for a moment before responding, "I'll bring you along another time, okay? I'm not particularly close to the Blackwoods, so it wouldn't be a good idea for me to bring someone along. But I'll definitely introduce you to other prominent families in the future!"The Blackwood family was the most prestigious family in Collinview, while the Xanthos family was a powerhouse in the medical field. Both families held esteemed positions in their respective domains. Noelle figured it would be better to take Zara to her house instead. Zara discreetly curled her lips in disdain, as she didn't believe that Noelle had the connections to introduce her to other prominent families. After all, Noelle was just the daughter of a widowed schoolteacher; what high-society connec

"Noelle's a little hedgehog hiding its quills," Christian thought. "Her gentle demeanor was just an act," he thought as he sauntered over. "Who's this fairy that's got my grandmother wrapped around her finger?"Noelle's skin crawled when she heard that teasing tone.Eleanor smacked Christian. "Don't you recognize Elle? Cut the snark, you little rascal!" Christian glanced at Noelle, noting her knitted brows and slightly annoyed expression; she looked like she wanted to say something but couldn't. He smiled, feeling rather amused.He casually picked up the shopping bag Noelle had brought, intending to see what was inside. But when he pulled out a pair of socks, his lips twitched involuntarily. "Well… That wasn't what I was expecting." Christian tossed the socks back into the bag. Noelle was dumbfounded. She was certain she had purchased a scarf; how did it turn into a pair of socks?The guests whispered among themselves, "Who would give someone a pair of socks as a birthday

Zara had put so much effort into dressing up. Yet, Eleanor was focused on the scarf Noelle had casually bought. Zara discreetly clenched her fists. Hoping to attract Eleanor's attention, she smiled and said, "Grandma Hudson, that scarf looks fantastic on you! Elle definitely knew what she was doing when she chose it!"Christian asked the butler, "Since when did I have a younger sister?"The butler could also tell something was off. Noelle's friend was overstepping. Who did she think she was, calling Eleanor "Grandma Hudson"? Moreover, she'd planted herself right in front of Eleanor ever since she walked in, almost as if she was afraid Eleanor wouldn't notice her. The butler walked up to Zara and said, "Miss, please take a seat outside.""Do we have extra seats?" Christian asked slyly.The butler shook his head. "No." The guest list and seating arrangements were all planned in advance. "So, are you suggesting she sit on your lap?" Christian asked.Even at his age, the butler'

John was also surprised to see Noelle there. It had been over six months since their last meeting when both of them had been drugged, and yet it felt as if a whole century had passed."I went to Dragfort to visit Mr. Lowe Senior a few days ago. I meant to catch up with you as well, but I couldn't find the time. I hope you're not upset with me for that."The crisp autumn air filled their lungs as Noelle and John went to the gazebo to talk. John's feelings for Noelle had gradually faded into a sibling-like bond. His heart now yearned for the woman he couldn't seem to find. He often felt discouraged, wondering if he would ever find her in this lifetime."Of course not." His gaze was warm and gentle, and carried a touch of affection, similar to that of an older brother toward his younger sister, as it landed on Noelle's face. "I was going to ask you out tomorrow, but I'm glad I ran into you today. Did you really save Mrs. Blackwood Senior?" he asked with a smile.Noelle explained bas

Eleanor responded, "He's just a little rascal!"Christian fell silent.Just then, his phone chimed. It was a message from Noelle. "My apologies, Mr. Christian. I won't be able to say goodbye to Grandma Hudson because the hospital has just called me in for an emergency. Please let Grandma Hudson, Mr. Steven, and Madam Xenos know on my behalf. Thanks!"By the time he got to the gates, Noelle's car had already left. Accompanied by Steven Blackwood and Beatrice Xenos, Eleanor saw Mabel out. Eleanor said, "Let's keep in touch more often. Who knows when we'll kick the bucket one day?" Eleanor and Mabel had lost touch years ago due to their different interests. Eleanor was surprised when Mabel showed up, as it was usually Michael who came to celebrate her birthday. Michael couldn't make it as he had a surgery that day. Mabel looked at the loving middle-aged couple and remarked, "I wish I had a daughter-in-law like yours; she looks so thoughtful and caring!"Eleanor chuckled. "You're

Noelle put her phone away and got out of the car. As soon as she looked up, she froze. A tall, slender figure was leaning against a Bentley a short distance away, smoking. His brows were knitted, and he looked deep in thought.As soon as he heard the car door close with a thud, he looked over. When their eyes met, she noticed his eyes lit up. "Elle!" Quentin stubbed out his cigarette and walked over. "What kept you so late? Busy day?"Truth was, he was aware she had attended Eleanor's birthday banquet. He had arrived in Collinview that afternoon, waited outside the hospital until she got off work, and then watched her go to the mall to buy Eleanor a gift before heading to the banquet. He then returned here to wait for her, but he didn't dare to say any of these, fearing it would upset her. The last thing he wanted now was to upset her. "Oh, it's you. Grandpa is ill, and his days are numbered. You should spend more time with him if you can." Her expression turned cold as she walke

As soon as Quentin stepped into the elevator, he grasped Noelle's hand. "Don't worry. It's far away from us!" He was worried that she might be afraid.Noelle froze. She could feel the warmth of his hand and his calming presence, but she no longer needed it. So, she withdrew her hand.A panicked crowd had gathered downstairs, their faces pale with fright as they watched the flames devour the building. Someone mentioned that an electric scooter had caught fire on one of the floors.The apartment buildings were set far apart, but Noelle wasted no time in closing the distance. Quentin watched as she darted toward the scene of the fire and joined the rescue efforts.His heart was gripped with worry. Unsure of how to help due to his lack of experience, he was initially hesitant to get involved, fearing he might hinder more than help. But after a moment's hesitation, he rushed over, quickly found his place, and started helping with lifting the injured. The fire was extinguished, and all

As soon as Noelle arrived at the hospital, her seniors greeted her warmly, stating that they had all seen the videos of her at the scene and were impressed by how she had made them proud.Noelle felt slightly embarrassed by their praise. The last thing on her mind was seeking glory; she simply wanted to do everything she could to ensure that the injured received the help they needed as soon as possible."Noelle, come to my office!" the director said as he walked past the examination room. Noelle wasted no time in heading to his office. Adrian Steele, the director who was almost 50, was a close friend of Michael's. Noelle had been calling him "Mr. Steele" for as long as she could remember."There's a one-month rotation program to the Utopia States. The hospital plans to send you. Go home and get ready; you'll be leaving in three days."Noelle stared at Adrian in astonishment. "Are you serious, Mr. Steele?" She couldn't quite believe that she was the one chosen; after all, there we

"Sorry, but if I ever get married, it definitely won't be to either of you."Noelle had originally come to visit Christian, but now she didn't feel like staying anymore. She was beyond frustrated.Christian's sharp, dangerous eyes narrowed in an instant, brimming with hostility as he locked his gaze on Noelle. Quentin's handsome face darkened as well, his mood turning stormy.Noelle spun around and walked out."We'll see about that," Quentin muttered, getting up to leave as well.As he passed by the clinic where Noelle worked, he cast a glance in that direction before heading out.Near the end of the workday, Russ called. "Ms. Xanthos, Mr. Xanthos has arranged for you to meet a boxing champion. Are you free now? I can take you to meet him."Noelle couldn't help but feel a mix of amusement and bitterness. She had lived 24 years, and only now did he care about whether she had any self-defense skills. Isn't it a little late for that?Still, she went.After one session, she was dr

Noelle quietly closed the door behind her. Leonard glanced over, saw it was her, and put away his phone. "He just fell asleep. Ms. Xanthos, you should head home and rest. I'll keep watch tonight," he said softly.Noelle shook her head. "He took the knife for me. How could I go home? I wouldn't be able to sleep anyway. I'd rather stay here and keep an eye on him."She sat down on the couch, her gaze heavy with concern as she looked at Christian sleeping.Leonard nodded. "Alright, you stay here. I'll step out for a bit," he said before leaving the room.Noelle nodded.Christian's phone, sitting on the nightstand, pinged with a WhatsApp notification.Noelle walked over, picked up the phone, and saw a message from someone with the nickname "The Blomming Fifties.""What a flashy name," she thought with a faint smirk.But for some reason, curiosity tugged at her—she suddenly felt a strong urge to peek into Christian's private world as if she might uncover something hidden beneath t

Noelle remained silent.In Dragfort, ever since Quentin had learned early that morning about Christian taking a knife for Noelle, he had locked himself in his office. It had been three hours now.The morning executive meeting was canceled, and his client appointments were rescheduled. Senior staff members who needed his signature on documents stood hesitating at the door, feeling the oppressive atmosphere even from outside the office.Department heads waiting to give their reports also lingered at the door, too intimidated to enter.In the end, they all turned their pleading eyes toward Martin.But even Martin was hesitant to go in.After all, he had witnessed the weight of Quentin's emotions—shock, frustration, and a deep sense of defeat—that had cast a heavy, oppressive mood over the office.Martin made a call to Dennis, knowing only he could possibly get through to Quentin now."Mr. Jackman, you need to come over," Martin said quietly, making sure to step into a quieter co

Even though Christian was in obvious pain, he forced himself not to make a sound.Such a stubborn fool.The door knocked twice, and Leonard walked in. Seeing Noelle, he greeted her, "Ms. Xanthos."Noelle's eyes were red, but she didn't respond.Christian opened his eyes slightly and said, "Don't tell anyone I'm injured."Leonard nodded."Tell them I'm on a business trip," Christian added.Leonard raised an eyebrow, "Bro, with a wound like that, how long do you think this 'trip' will last before people catch on?"Christian shot him a cold glare, and Leonard quickly relented, "Okay, okay, I get it. I'll handle it."Christian closed his eyes again, waves of pain crashing over him like a relentless tide.Suddenly, he opened his eyes once more. "Silly girl."Noelle paused, her tear-filled eyes looking at him.A smile tugged at the corner of Christian's mouth. "Get out for a bit. You look terrible."Noelle's lips twitched as her damp lashes fluttered, and a surge of unexplainabl

Just as the man raised the knife for a second strike, the security team arrived and swiftly pinned him down.Noelle heard a low grunt behind her, followed by Christian's pained chuckle. "Good thing it wasn't him."Noelle's heart clenched as she turned to see Christian, clutching his shoulder, slumped against her legs.He was wearing a beige coat, now stained with a large patch of blood around his shoulder.Christian was rushed to emergency surgery, but Noelle remained frozen in her chair, her mind replaying his words, "Good thing it wasn't him."Who wasn't it? Quentin?Why did he say that? Why did he act this way?The image of Christian's blood-soaked coat lingered in her mind. The wound—how deep was it?Noelle sat there, numb and lost in thought for an unknown period, until Michael appeared.He glanced at her through the doorway, but without a word, he continued walking past.A little while later, Kara gently patted her shoulder. "They've moved him to a room. You should go s

Emmie smiled and placed a few more ravioli on Noelle's plate. "Then eat a little more. It's your mom's first time cooking, and once you're in the Utopia States, you won't have this."It wasn't like she had never cooked before—she had made instant noodles when she was alone.Noelle ate a small bowl of ravioli without pausing, her stomach now full and round. Her eyes welled up with tears, though whether it was from happiness or something else, no one could tell.After dinner, Noelle stayed for a bit before leaving.Emmie watched Noelle's car disappear down the driveway before finally going upstairs.Michael, leaning back on the bed, heard her soft footsteps approaching and lifted his eyelids.The bedroom was dark, and when Emmie stepped in, her gaze met Michael's dark, piercing eyes. She paused at the doorway, and he continued watching her."Lia must be blind. She couldn't tell if it was you or the driver," Emmie said coldly, walking straight to the other side of the bed and pulli

Emmie was at a loss for words.Michael said, "Your daughter's leaving for the Utopia States soon. You should take this time to spend with her."Emmie's breath hitched. "Elle agreed?"Michael nodded. "Yes."It was the best way for Noelle to get away from those two men and focus on her own growth.After a night's rest, Noelle felt much better the next morning. Emmie called her, inviting her to Gentle Glades after work.What Noelle didn't expect was to see Michael there as well.He was lounging on the couch in casual clothes, flipping through a medical journal. Emmie, wearing an apron, seemed to be busy in the kitchen. When Noelle walked in, Emmie immediately came out."Elle!" Emmie's gentle face was filled with warmth as she took Noelle's hand.Noelle felt a bit disoriented.In her memory, Emmie's life was filled with books and work, never with the kitchen. And Michael—she hadn't seen him so relaxed and calm, casually reading a magazine on the couch, in over a decade.It felt

Michael couldn't forget the look Elijah had given him that day—a mocking smile, full of meaning. Elijah slowly pulled back, revealing Emmie's curled-up body underneath him.Without a word, Michael opened his phone and pulled up a social media app. He tossed the phone to Emmie. "Take a look for yourself."Emmie looked down and saw a video posted by Elijah just minutes earlier. It was of her feeding him. She watched in disbelief, then replayed it. The account was undeniably Elijah's."Scroll down. There's more," Michael's voice drifted from the couch.Emmie's fingers moved down the screen, her peripheral vision catching a glimpse of Michael sitting with his legs crossed, taking a sip of coffee handed to him by the housekeeper.Further down, she found a photo posted by Elijah a month ago, showing her preparing his medicine. The footage seemed to be taken from security cameras.But none of these posts had appeared on her social media feed.She had never seen them on her phone.Mich

Quentin didn't deny it.Noelle's chest tightened as she remembered that day in Ocean City when Christian had said Gillian deserved to be slapped. Now, it all made sense.At the time, she had sarcastically asked him if he would treat her the same way once he got tired of her.His response had been, "Do you think I'm tired of her, and that's why I did it?"Now she understood. Christian had known all along that it was Quentin who had called Gillian to Ocean City.A wave of frustration swelled in Noelle's chest. Her fingers clenched tightly as the memory of Christian's sweet words clashed with the thought of him being with Gillian. Bitterness gnawed at her.Just then, the door opened again, and a strong, steady figure entered. His gaze swept silently over the two men in the room before he walked straight to the bed."Elle?""Clement!" At the sight of him, Noelle's eyes brimmed with tears."Let's go home," Clement said as he turned and carefully lifted her onto his back. Noelle res
