"Yeah." Charles chuckled, planting a kiss on the corner of Noelle's eye. "All of this is yours, feel free to touch all you want!"Noelle's cheeks flushed bright red, and she tried to pull her hands back, but Charles gently held onto them. "What's wrong? I don't let anyone else touch me!""You're such a tease!" Noelle's face turned even redder, "Ever since we got married, you've just gotten cheekier and cheekier.""Yeah, I'm all yours," Charles said as he cradled Noelle's face in his hands, their eyes locked in a gaze.Just like that, time stood still. They looked at each other as if they could never look away. "Charlie!""Noelle!" Charles gently cradled Noelle's face in his hands, showering her with soft kisses....The whole town of Brookville buzzed with excitement for Charles and Noelle's wedding. It was not just the big shots in the business world who were thrilled; people online and just about everyone else were talking about it, too. The media and social networks were all
The Cherished Wife Chapter 1817
Kelly and Noelle were sisters and looked almost the same, both incredibly beautiful. Liliana was like a finely carved statue of beauty, and then there were Linda and Eloise. One was sweet and charming, while the other was cool and aloof, like a regal ice queen.Tania blinked her eyes, "Aren't they lovely? I chose the bridesmaids' dresses." She let out a sigh, "I had hoped to be a bridesmaid too, such a shame!"Their happy chatter filled the house, and Noelle felt like the luckiest girl in the world. She turned to Kelly, her best bridesmaid, her eyes shining with thanks. "Kelly, I'm so grateful you're always here for me," Noelle said softly. Kelly grinned and gave her a gentle shoulder pat, "You don't have to thank me, Noelle. You're my sister and seeing you so happy with the right guy is all I could wish for."Linda, touched by their words, had teary eyes like she was the bride too. She dashed from the kitchen, lifted a cup, and laughed, "I feel like I've turned into your wedding pl

On the wedding day, Noelle's heart raced with excitement. She slipped into her beautiful wedding dress and stood looking at herself in the mirror. She was wearing a white gown and could hardly believe that moment was real. She looked so beautiful and full of hope that she almost forgot how nervous and thrilled she felt."You look so beautiful, Noelle! Like a princess," Linda said from behind her. Noelle turned and saw her bridesmaids smiling at her. She smiled back, feeling thankful and a little nervous."Thanks, everyone. I can't believe how perfect today is," Noelle said, her voice full of emotion. She looked at the ring in her hand, feeling so happy and excited.She walked over to the bed, picked up her phone, and called Charles. When he answered, she heard his deep voice say, "Honey, I can't wait to see you." Noelle felt a warm glow inside and smiled. "I feel the same, Charles. I love you."After she ended the call, she stood in front of the mirror once more, gazing at her wedd

The wedding began on a day filled with laughter and joy. Outside the church, Noelle and her bridesmaids stood together, while inside, Charles eagerly awaited her, clutching a bouquet of roses.Tania stood with Rowena and Teresa, their laughter and chatter creating a joyful buzz. Meanwhile, Noelle's heart was racing, but she stayed cool as a cucumber, took a deep breath, and braced herself for the biggest moment of her life."Hey, have you guys heard that funny wedding joke that's going around?" Tania piped up suddenly. Everyone turned to look at her, eager to hear the joke. "So, there was this bride who asked her bridesmaid, 'Can I go without shoes today?' The bridesmaid was surprised and asked, 'Why would you go without shoes?' The bride giggled and said, 'Because I don't want my own steps to be too loud!'" Tania chuckled, and everyone laughed along.The church doors swung open, and Noelle's dad held her hand, guiding her slowly down the long aisle toward Charles, who stood waiti

She appeared at the doorway, standing tall in her flowing white gown, the lace sparkling in the light. Her veil covered most of her face, but her eyes, the ones he had fallen in love with all those years ago, gleamed at him from beneath it. For a brief moment, it felt like time had stopped. She looked like an angel, and as she started her slow walk down the aisle, Charles could not help but feel his heart swell with love and pride.At her side, Kelly smiled at her, holding Noelle's bouquet carefully. Kelly, always the organized one, was keeping it together despite the emotion of the moment. However, just as they reached the halfway point, Kelly's heel caught on the edge of a pew, and she stumbled slightly. There was a collective gasp, followed by a nervous giggle from the crowd. Kelly straightened herself quickly, her face turning a little pink, but she winked at Noelle and whispered, "Just making sure everyone is paying attention." Noelle stifled a laugh, her cheeks flushing wi

When it was Noelle's turn, she spoke her vows in a voice that trembled ever so slightly, but her words were strong. "Charles, you are my home," she said. "From the moment we met, I knew I'd found someone who would be my partner for the rest of my life. I promise to love you, to support you, and to share my life with you in all its highs and lows."It was beautiful, simple, and perfect. Charles could feel his heart swelling again, but then it was full of certainty. That was it. That was the moment he had been waiting for.The officiant smiled and nodded, glancing at Charles. "By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife. Charles, you may kiss your bride."The church erupted in applause as Charles leaned in to kiss Noelle, his heart beating faster than ever. The kiss was soft but full of meaning, a promise of everything to come. When they pulled away, he could not help but laugh with happiness, and Noelle joined in, her face flushed with joy.They turned to face

Meanwhile, Charles caught sight of his mother, Clarisse and father, Mateo, both of them beaming with pride. Clarisse's eyes were bright with tears as she dabbed at them with a tissue, while Mateo's face was etched with a quiet, proud smile."Charles!" Clarisse called out, her voice thick with emotion. She was barely holding it together, and her hands trembled as she waved him over for a hug. Charles went to her, his heart swelling, and pulled her into his arms. "I'm so proud of you," she whispered, and the emotion in her voice made his chest tighten. He pulled back, giving her a soft smile, and then hugged Mateo, who patted him on the back."Don't you go breaking her heart, Charles," Mateo said with a wink, making everyone nearby laugh. It was a comment Charles had heard many times before, but today, it carried a deeper, more heartfelt meaning.He turned to Noelle, and she smiled at him, her eyes crinkling at the corners in that way he loved. Her parents were waiting for her, and

The church was alive with love and happiness, the air buzzing with laughter, congratulations, and heartfelt connections. For a moment, Charles stood still, holding Noelle’s hand, soaking in the overwhelming joy that surrounded them. It wasn’t just the ceremony that made the day special—it was the people they loved, the memories they’d shared, and the future they were about to build together.As the crowd slowly began to disperse, the newlyweds, still smiling and basking in the glow of their love, made their way out of the church, ready to begin the rest of their lives together.Just then, the bridesmaids—Kelly, Liliana and Linda—and the groomsmen—Sean, Peter, and the others—emerged from the church. They were all smiling, but especially Sean, who had his usual carefree, playful attitude. He walked up behind Charles as if he were about to give him a friendly shove.However, before Sean could do anything else, it was obvious that Charles was not pleased with him at all. With a quick mo

"Sean, stop messing around. Let go of me first," Liliana tugged at Sean's arm, realizing how tightly he was holding her. "You're choking me."Only then did Sean loosen his grip slightly, though he still did not let her go. His forehead rested against hers, and he panted softly. "Liliana, do you remember what you said to me in the fire?"Liliana's face turned red, and she awkwardly turned her head away. "N-No, I don't remember. What did I say? I don't think I—mmph..."Before she could finish, Sean kissed her, swallowing the rest of her words with that one stubborn kiss.Liliana raised her hands and smacked Sean on the shoulder, trying to push him away. "Sea—mmph, what are you doing? Let me go..."She shoved him hard, and Sean stumbled back, clutching his chest. Liliana's face went pale, and she rushed over. "Sean, what's wrong? Are you okay? Did I hurt you somewhere?"Nonetheless, Sean took the opportunity to wrap his arms around her again. That feeling of holding her tightly

Noelle raised an eyebrow. "I didn't say that."Then, she added, "That knot in Liliana's heart can only be undone by Sean."What happened back then had always been a shadow between the two of them. Noelle had noticed it these past few days. Though Liliana stubbornly claimed she no longer cared, she clutched her phone every single day, obviously waiting for a call.Liliana's social circle was small. Noelle and the others knew everyone she knew. Who else could she be waiting for but Sean?Charles furrowed his brows. "If Liliana can't have the best, then she's better off with nothing."Noelle could not help but laugh. "Alright, alright. I know you're still holding a grudge against Hayes and Savannah."Honestly, Noelle shared the sentiment. "Savannah really crossed a line with how she handled everything."Charles reached out and gently pinched Noelle's knuckles. "That's not what I meant."Noelle chuckled, exasperated. "I know."Outside, the sound of a car engine drew their attentio

Sean shoved Hayes away. "Dad, if you're just like Mom and trying to stop me from being with Liliana, then don't even bother. If I can't marry Liliana in this lifetime, I won't marry anyone else."With that, Sean lay down decisively. Hayes frowned. "Sean, this isn't about what we want anymore. It's about Liliana and Charles now."Truthfully, Hayes did not have many opinions about Sean and Liliana's relationship. He was always too busy with the company to pay attention to such things. Even the events from four years ago were only now becoming clearer to him."If you insist on marrying her, I won't stop you. But from what I can see, the problem lies with Liliana and Charles."Sean's gaze sharpened as he clenched his fists. "That's impossible. Liliana already forgave me back when the fire happened. She promised that if we both made it out, she'd marry me."Hayes sighed. "Your mother… She misunderstood Liliana and said some harsh things. Just rest for now. Once you're better, we'll go

Sean spat out a mouthful of blood. One hand gripped the bedsheet tightly, his gaze turning darker than ever."What do you mean by that? What do you mean she doesn't want to marry me? She promised me. She said that as long as I was willing to walk out of that fire with her, she'd be with me. You're lying to me, aren't you? Tell me you're lying to me."Sean's bloodshot eyes locked on Savannah's. "Tell me."Savannah was momentarily stunned by the sheer force of Sean's gaze. This was the first time she ever felt fear in front of her own son. "Sean, I…""Where's Liliana?" Sean demanded."Sean," Hayes called out as he pushed open the door and stepped in. "That's no way to speak to your mother.""Then how should I speak to her?" Sean's voice turned icy."Did you know it was Joanna who drugged me nine years ago? And while I was under the influence, I forced myself on Liliana? I misunderstood her, and as a result, she had to hide in the countryside for years."Four years ago, it was me

The operating room door swung open, and Liliana spun around. She saw Saxon step out. Not caring about anyone else’s opinions, she grabbed his hand. "Mr. Holt, how's Sean?"Saxon looked down at their hands, noting how soft and warm hers was. He met her eyes and nodded. "The patient is out of danger now. He should wake up by tomorrow."Hearing that, Liliana let out a sigh of relief and then suddenly fainted."Liliana!"Charles rushed over and wrapped Liliana in a tight hug, but his eyes quickly darted to Hayes and Savannah. "Now that Sean is safe, Sean's fate is no longer Liliana's concern, nor ours," he declared, speaking for the Hoffman family.With those words, Charles carried Liliana away. Saxon was tugged along by Linda. "Saxon, you should check on her. The young lady seemed off to me. She's been hiding her pain. Besides the wound on her shoulder, I think she breathed in a lot of smoke."Saxon's eyes shimmered for a moment. "Yeah, I'm aware."Liliana had been pushing through

"Charles, you…""Stop it!" Hayes was taken aback by Savannah suddenly slapping Liliana. He did not particularly like or dislike Liliana, but she was part of the Hoffman family, and their family commanded much respect. Besides, Noelle was still Charles's wife, and they had to be careful about their actions.Hayes turned to Charles. "I'm sorry, my wife acted without thinking. But what in the world happened today?"Hayes had been told that his son was hurt, but he did not know the details. When he arrived and saw Liliana was there and injured too, Hayes and Savannah could not help but think that Liliana must be connected to Sean's injury.Charles gave a sharp look. "It was Joanna's doing.""Joanna? No, that can't be!" Savannah was shocked to hear the name Joanna, and she quickly objected, "Joanna is such a sweet girl, she couldn't possibly...""Oh, sweet indeed!"Liliana, who had been silent until then, finally spoke. She narrowed her eyes and stood up, ignoring the pain from her w

"Liliana!""Get up quickly!" Liliana used all her strength to pull Sean up from the ground. "Can you walk?""Uh-huh!" Sean had been hit by a falling piece of wood on his leg when he tried to push Liliana out earlier. That was why he could not get out in time and could only hear Liliana's loud calls from outside.He had wished so badly for Liliana to leave quickly, but she had come back for him.Sean bit down hard and pushed himself up.Even if it was hard to walk, he had to try because Liliana wanted him to stand.Liliana slung Sean's arm over her shoulder, noticing his injury. Her eyes were red with tears. "Sean, hang in there. If we both make it out today, I'll forgive you. You can ask me to do anything.""Really?" Sean's eyes sparkled, and he smiled. "Liliana, I don't want you to do anything." In his heart, he added, ‘I just want you to marry me.’"The fire is licking at our heels, and you two are still dawdling," came Charles's icy voice from up ahead. In a flash, he was be

"Sean, where are you? Didn't you just say you love me?" she cried out. "How can you leave me like this, saying you love me and then j-j-just giving up? What am I supposed to do now?"Sean, you took our child from me. How could you think I'd just forgive you? If you don't make this right, I swear I'll never forgive you," Liliana yelled outside, her voice filled with madness. Inside, the plant was engulfed in flames. Shaking from head to toe, Liliana's screams slowly turned into a whisper. She clenched her hands tight, staring blankly at the fire. "If you're gone, what's left for me here?""Liliana!"Charles rushed over and saw Liliana moving toward the flames. He grabbed her and pulled her back. "What are you doing?"Liliana looked up, dazed, and saw Charles. She quickly stood up and grabbed his hand. "Charles, please. I'm begging you. Help me save Sean, please!"Charles's brow creased as he looked at the fiery red inferno, his fingers tensing. "Liliana, the fire's too big. Sean mi

Liliana shoved Sean aside and covered him with her body, taking a knife stab from Joanna. "Ugh..."Pain whitened Liliana's face, and blood dripped onto Sean's face. Reacting quickly, Sean rolled over, picked Liliana up in his arms, and seized Joanna's neck, twisting it hard until it cracked. Joanna's eyes bulged in disbelief as she stared at Sean."You..."She had not thought Sean would actually snap her neck. Her eyes were wide open, one hand clutching a knife, and the other holding a lighter.With her last breath, she tossed the lighter.A loud bang followed, and flames started to spread from that spot.Sean's eyes darkened as he carried Liliana and dashed for the exit. However, how could he outrun the swift spread of the fire while burdened with Liliana's weight?Liliana's eyes widened as she saw the flames creeping up behind them. She pushed Sean, urging him, "Go now, or it'll be too late!"However, Sean's eyes turned a deep red with emotion. "Liliana, I won't let go of you
