Chapter 1251

Noelle did not know what to feel at Charles’ bossy words, but her heart was racing like crazy.She had to admit that since her disaster with Xavier, Charles was the only guy who really mattered to her. When he got all commanding with that undertone of kindness, Noelle was a bit out of her depth.She looked down, fiddling with the hem of Charles's shirt and feeling awkward.Charles caught the look and quirked an eyebrow. "What's up?""Nothing, really!" Noelle forced a laugh. She was not about to confess that his words had her all fluttery inside. She turned her head, pretending to be annoyed. "Come on, we're married. You don't have to get all worked up!""It's not about being worked up. You're my wife, so you're supposed to only have eyes for me. It doesn't matter how great the other guy is, or what history you have. That's just not okay with me!" Charles said, his arm firm around Noelle's waist. "Got it?""Yeah, I’ve got it!" Noelle could not help but find it funny. Charles was s

"I can tell this is tough for you!" Noelle curled up against Charles like a little cat, her fingers lightly dancing over his chest. "The doctor said we can't do anything for the first three months. You'll just have to hang in there!""You're too much, you know that?" Charles let out a sigh. "Don’t talk anymore, okay?""But won't it be harder for you if I'm quiet?" Noelle countered, lifting her head to look him in the eye firmly as if she had made her mind up about something. With a gentle push, she got up from Charles's embrace.Charles's brows knitted together in confusion, clueless about what Noelle was up to. However, Noelle did not need words to show Charles her intentions.She gently placed her hands on his shoulders. "Charles, close your eyes," she whispered.Charles's frown deepened. "Noelle, what's going on?""Just close them!" Noelle urged, her voice playful and her cheeks tinged with pink. Charles's gaze grew intense, a spark of desire lighting up his eyes.Noelle’s te

"Sounds great!" Noelle's heart was racing. The sensation was so surreal and indescribable."Ugh, Noelle! Snap out of it." She smacked her cheeks, hoping to quell the heat rising in her face, but it only seemed to burn brighter.Charles was quick, emerging from the bathroom in no time with crisp clothes and his usual commanding presence.Noelle's cheeks were still ablaze. Seeing Charles so composed and collected, she could not help but mumble, "Why do I feel like I'm getting the short end of the stick here?""Hmm?" Charles, clearly pleased with himself, beamed happily. He leaned in for another kiss. "Let me sweep you off your feet and help you freshen up!""No way!" Noelle pushed him back. "I've got it under control!"Charles caught on to her bashfulness and nodded. "Alright, go freshen up then. Your clothes are in the wardrobe, okay?""Huh?" Noelle blinked in surprise. "Since when do you keep my clothes in your office wardrobe?""Becky set it up!" Charles gently patted Noelle's

Noelle stepped out just after Ronald had taken off. She adjusted her clothes and noticed Charles with an unlit cigarette in hand. When he saw Noelle, he tossed it aside. "Hungry? What do you want to eat?""Did I just hear Mr. Wells a minute ago?""Yeah, he dropped by for a signature," Charles replied, his eyes lingering on Noelle.He had always known there was something special about her beauty. More than just her good looks, she had a kind of allure that stuck with him over the years. That was why he could not shake her from his thoughts and why someone like Kelly could never tempt him.Noelle strutted over, twirling a bit. "What do you think? Do I look okay?" she asked, cocking her head and flashing a playful grin. "Good thing I'm not showing yet. Otherwise, I doubt I'd fit into any of these outfits Becky picked out!""You look amazing!" Charles called out, pulling Noelle close. "You're not fat. In fact, you're too skinny.""You’re bringing this up again?" Noelle sighed, half-j

Anyone watching from afar would have caught the sweet scene unfolding between the couple.Grant, who had time to kill, wandered over and spotted Charles and Noelle. His eyes briefly sparkled with something unreadable, but he chose not to join them. Instead, he lingered outside for a while before leaving with a sense of resignation.Charles's piercing gaze followed Grant's departing silhouette, his eyes darkening in deep thought.Noelle, ever the food enthusiast, was too engrossed in her meal to notice Grant's presence. Her plate was heaped with treats, and she was blissfully unaware of anything else.Eventually, Noelle's stomach reached its limit, and she pushed Charles's hand away, exclaiming, "No more, I just can't! I'm absolutely stuffed!"Charles looked down, his eyes twinkling with mirth at the sight of Noelle's rounded belly. It was as if their baby was already making its presence known. "Okay, no more food for now!" he said, gently patting her belly. "Does it hurt?"Noelle

When Charles gave the nod, Noelle's face lit up with excitement. "Hey, old geezer! Get down here!""Huh?"Charles quirked an eyebrow, totally baffled by Noelle's request. She was already yanking on his sleeve, urging him into a squat. With a patient sigh, Charles crouched down, curious to see what Noelle was up to. However, before he could ask, she had hopped onto his back. "Old geezer, this old gal can't walk another step. Give me a lift, will you?"A grin spread across Charles's face, and he playfully pinched Noelle's nose. "You're something else, you know that?""What's the matter? Not up for it?" Noelle challenged, jutting out her chin and refusing to budge from Charles's back. "Let's go!"Shaking his head with a soft laugh, Charles said, "You're a handful, you know? You've got a baby on board. If I carry you on piggyback, I might squish your tummy. That won't be comfy at all, will it?""So what do we do?" Noelle whined.Without missing a beat, Charles reached back and scoop

The 'waterwheel' Charles mentioned was actually a cute little paddle boat in the river. Once inside, each person would pedal on one side, taking a leisurely boat ride as if on a lake.However, they had chosen the wrong time to go. The sky was darkening, and the evening boat rides were done for the day, probably to prevent mishaps like someone falling into the water at night.Noelle clung to Charles's neck with a look of such sweet sorrow that Charles could not help but notice. He gently stroked her hair. "It's okay. We can’t do it today, but how about we come back first thing tomorrow? I'll pedal with you all day, okay?""Maybe not. I'm not a kid, you know. It's just a bummer we missed out on the fun today!" Noelle was not one to make a fuss. "Let me down, and we can take a stroll by the river and enjoy the breeze!""Sure! Feeling up for a walk now, my little granny?" Charles said with a chuckle.Noelle could not help it. Her cheeks flushed with color once more. She gave Charles

Chapter 1258

Although Maxwell could be unreasonable at times, Noelle was completely safe around him, at least while she was pregnant. Maxwell would never say anything hurtful to Noelle then.It was clear as day that Charles had Maxwell all figured out. No sooner had they walked through the door than Maxwell started his verbal lashing. However, the target was Charles, not Noelle."Seriously, how old are you now? Do you even realize your wife's pregnant with your kids? You might like eating out, but who knows if it's clean? We've got all the tasty and healthy food you could ever want right here. What's your problem?"Mid-rant, Maxwell went for his cane, aiming to give Charles a piece of his mind the old-fashioned way, but Noelle darted in front of him. The cane froze in mid-swing. Maxwell's hand shook at nearly giving Noelle an unintended whack. He shot her a look that could curdle milk. "Step aside!"Noelle stood her ground. "I'm the one who wanted to eat out today. Don’t blame Charlie!”Maxwel

Maxwell knew his grandson like the back of his hand. Charles was not the type to say sorry just like that. Thus, Maxwell had not held his breath for an apology. However, he was intrigued to see Charles willing to bend a little for Noelle's sake."I'm sorry!"The words came out of Charles with a hint of reluctance, but they were out. That left everyone in the room, except for Noelle, totally taken aback. Charles had actually apologized. It was a moment no one saw coming.Maxwell watched Noelle with a thoughtful gaze while Charles, albeit a bit awkwardly, took her hand and led her upstairs. Only when the young couple had vanished from view did Maxwell blink twice, a grin spreading across his face with a dash of excitement and curiosity. He turned to his daughter-in-law. "Nancy, did you catch that? Our Charles, that little scamp, actually said sorry to me. You watched him grow up, Nancy. Take a look at him now...""Dad, I can’t believe your ears aren't playing tricks on you!" Nancy

Chapter 1260

A heart-to-heart with Nancy? Henry was not about to let Clarisse corner Nancy for a chat. However, Nancy seemed to have other ideas. Catching Henry's fierce look at Clarisse, Nancy gently touched his hand and shook her head. "Let me talk to her, please!"Henry's frown deepened. He did not like the idea of Nancy and Clarisse alone together. However, Nancy shot him a look that said 'trust me' and patted his hand. "We're at the Hoffman Residence. Everyone's around!" Clarisse would not dare make a scene with everyone watching, especially with Charles being so close to Nancy. Nancy was sure of it.Henry mulled it over and then gave a reluctant nod. "Fine." However, his eyes still shot Clarisse a warning glare.Clarisse felt a wave of nausea but refused to show it. She straightened her back, mustering all her courage to face Henry. "Do you still doubt me?"Henry narrowed his eyes. "You two can catch up here. I'm heading upstairs. When you're done, come find me, and I'll show you the way
