Chapter 1181

Charles narrowed his eyes. "How can I not be nervous? This is your first pregnancy!""Alright, if we don't head up now, Grandpa will start worrying!" Noelle reminded him, urging, "Let's go!"Noelle moved to pick up the items, but Charles stopped her. "Just follow me."With a helpless smile, Noelle relented, letting Charles take the lead. Watching his back, she suddenly felt that life with Charles—simple and straightforward—seemed genuinely happy. Especially when he treated her with such care, holding her like she was precious, it made all the grievances she had endured at the Shaw family feel insignificant.When Noelle and Charles reached Sebastian's door, they saw it was already open. Noelle raised an eyebrow slightly. "Grandpa even left the door open for us?"She stepped inside but did not see Sebastian. Puzzled, she called out, "Grandpa?""Noelle, you're here!" May, who was still wearing an apron, emerged from Sebastian's room. She looked a little fatigued."May, where's Gr

Charles gave Noelle a few more sips of water, stopping only when she protested that she could not drink any more. "Grandpa, did you happen to meet someone today?" he asked casually.At his words, both Sebastian and Noelle paused to look at him. Noelle blinked. "Meet someone? Who?"She glanced back and forth between Charles and Sebastian. "Grandpa, did you have a visitor at home?"Sebastian's expression darkened slightly as he stared at Charles for a long moment before shaking his head. "No one at all. An old man like me doesn't get many visitors. Besides you two dropping by now and then, who else would remember me?"His words sounded self-deprecating, but they were clearly a warning aimed at Charles. Sebastian knew Charles was sharp, but this was something he could not let Noelle find out.Charles narrowed his eyes slightly, understanding the message. "Grandpa, that doesn't sound right. You had so many brilliant students over the years. I don't believe they wouldn't come to see yo

Noelle looked up at Charles with half-closed, sleepy eyes. She blinked a few times and rubbed them groggily. "I'm so tired, Charlie.""If you're tired, take a nap. Be good." Charles adjusted her into a more comfortable position, using a pillow to make sure she rested well. Noelle curled up on his lap, her eyes slowly closing as she drifted off.As Sebastian watched their intimate interaction, the glimmer in his eyes eventually faded and he let out a helpless sigh. "I know how deeply you care for Noelle. As your teacher, I trust you.""You're absolutely right," Charles replied.Sebastian shook his head. "Take good care of Noelle. I know you'll protect her completely."Charles' sharp eyes gleamed. "Who did you see today?"Sebastian's expression flickered briefly. "Let her sleep well for now. I've had May keep her room cleaned and ready. Take her there to rest."Charles nodded and carefully lifted Noelle, his movements gentle to avoid waking her. Once he had settled her into the ro

Even though Charles was his student, Sebastian could not deny feeling a slight sense of pressure in the presence of such a commanding man. After all, Charles was no longer the teenager he once taught but a man of extraordinary influence."You can probably guess what happened after that," Sebastian began. "Noelle forgot everything from that period, but she remembered everyone else—except you."As he spoke, he noticed a crack in Charles' otherwise composed demeanor. "Later, she met Xavier in college, and the two started dating. They were planning to marry, but then everything fell apart. You know what happened after that.""So, if it weren't for what happened with Xavier, would you have let Nelly marry someone else? Tell me, if she had married another man, what do you think I would have done?"Sebastian narrowed his eyes. "You wouldn't have done anything. I know you, Charles. You're my student, and I understand your character."Charles let out a faint chuckle. "People change. I'm no

Sebastian's gaze hardened with a cold glint as he glared at Charles. Just as he was about to speak, Noelle's voice came from the doorway. "Grandpa, Charlie, what are you two doing here?"The anger in Sebastian's expression immediately subsided. He pressed his lips into a thin line, but his expression still did not look good. However, with Noelle present, he had no choice but to suppress his frustration. "Weren't you tired? Why are you awake again?""I…" Noelle glanced sheepishly at Sebastian, then at Charles. She could not very well say she woke up because she needed to use the restroom. "I'm hungry!"Sebastian, noticing her embarrassed look, could not help but laugh and shake his head. "This kiddo. If you're hungry, you're hungry. I'll go check if May has finished cooking." With that, Sebastian got up and left the study.Noelle watched his retreating figure with suspicion, then turned to Charles and pursed her lips slightly. "You and Grandpa were…" The atmosphere just now had been

"Grandpa?"Noelle hurried over to Sebastian, and May, who had been in the kitchen, quickly rushed out as well. "Sir Jones, are you alright?"As she wiped her hands with her apron, May quickly moved to help Sebastian over to the side. "Sir, you should sit down in the living room. I'll clean this up!" She muttered to herself as she went to grab a broom and dustpan, "This was Ms. Noelle's favorite clam chowder!""May, it's alright." Noelle smiled and linked her arm with Sebastian's. "Grandpa, what's going on with you today? You seem so distracted!"She guided him to the living room and noticed his eyes fixed on the television. The screen happened to show Shirley's image."Grandpa, do you know Shirley?" Noelle asked, helping him to sit down. Then, with a playful tone, she added, "I didn't know you were a fan! But Shirley is pretty amazing. I heard she's originally from Brookville. She later entered showbiz and, at 46, landed a lead role in this film. That's rare!"It was common kno

Chapter 1187

After leaving Sebastian's house, Noelle could not shake the feeling that her grandfather was hiding something from her.Charles fastened her seatbelt and noticed she was lost in thought. Gently tucking a stray strand of her hair behind her ear, he asked, "Still thinking about Grandpa?"Noelle snapped out of her thoughts and nodded. "Yeah. Charlie, don't you think Grandpa was acting strange today?""What did you find strange?"Charles started the car and prompted her to elaborate. "Tell me.""From the moment we arrived, I felt something was off with Grandpa. He kept pretending everything was fine, but I could tell something was bothering him. And earlier, when I was watching TV… "Do you remember how I used to watch TV at Grandpa's place all the time? He never reacted like this before. I mean, Shirley seems fine, so why did he get so worked up when he saw her?"Charles' sharp eyes flickered slightly at her words, and he glanced sideways at her.Noelle, noticing his gaze, touched

Kelly? Why Kelly?Ronald was utterly baffled."Mr. Hoffman, are you asking me to investigate Shirley or Kelly? There doesn't seem to be any clear connection between them." Ronald was on the verge of losing his mind with Charles' sudden and seemingly unrelated demands late at night.Charles furrowed his brows. "Investigate both. Find out their connection, if any, and focus on Shirley's relationship with Flynn!"He hung up, gripping the phone in his hand as he turned it slightly, deep in thought. Sliding one hand into his pocket, Charles walked to the window, his gaze fixed on the dark expanse outside.Maybe this time, there would be some clues.…At the Jones residence, May had just finished clearing away the leftovers when she noticed Sebastian turning the television back on. The screen showed the same entertainment channel Noelle had been watching earlier, but the program had long since changed. The previous interview was no longer airing.Sebastian stared at the screen withou

The woman clenched her fists, her face clouding with displeasure. "I'm not your prisoner!"The man responded with a cold laugh. "So? After 25 years, how does it feel to return to Brookville?"The woman's brows furrowed deeply. She removed her sunglasses, revealing a delicate face that bore a faint resemblance to Noelle. However, a closer look made it clear she was older. While she had maintained her appearance well, the passage of time was unmistakable."How does it feel? You're asking me how it feels?" Her face twisted with anger as her piercing eyes locked onto Harrison's. Her gaze was filled with hatred so intense it seemed she wanted to tear him apart. "Harrison Smith, what do you think I should feel?"Harrison squinted slightly, a faint smirk playing on his lips. A closer inspection revealed that he must have been extraordinarily handsome in his youth.His smile, however, never reached his eyes. Reclining in the backseat of the car, his sharp gaze stayed fixed on the woman. H

"After all these years, I thought you'd miss her. Ha! She's your and Flynn's daughter. What happened? How could you bear to leave her?""Harrison, you bastard!"Shirley raised her hand and slapped Harrison across the face. "You're nothing but a devil—a monster!""A devil? And you think you and Flynn are any better?" Harrison suddenly grabbed her wrist, twisting it behind her as his face darkened. His cold eyes locked onto hers. "Look at you. You left for so many years. Did Flynn ever come looking for you? To him, you were just a fleeting affair. Do you really think he cared about you?"Shirley's face turned pale."What good did it do, having his child? You were nothing but a homewrecker!""Enough, Harrison! I told you to stop!" Shirley raised her hand to strike him again, but Harrison caught it easily, pinning her arm in place. "Enough? Don't forget—it was you and Flynn who betrayed me first!""I never betrayed you, Harrison! You know it as well as I do. There was never anything
