Semua Bab The Cherished Wife: Bab 121 - Bab 130

At the thought of that, she let out a chuckle. Charles held his teacup in his hand as he raised an eyebrow at the sight of Noelle laughing. “What’s so funny?”Stunned, Noelle bit down on her lip as she thought about how she should explain the situation to him. In the end, though, she chose to shake her head and say, “It’s nothing!” After all, she could not tell him she was thanking the stars she had not been born in March, could she? Charles smiled and poured Noelle another cup of tea as he said, “Since your grandfather has given you a portion of the shares, you should keep hold of it without any worries. I’m sure you know what Xavier and Joseph are plotting!” As Charles changed the subject, Noelle became serious as well as she nodded. “I’m sure Grandpa has his reasons for doing so. I just hope things aren’t as complicated as they seem.”“Your grandfather is the founder of City Ring Corp, and he built your family’s fortune up from the ground, which is why City Ring Corp is so imp

Charles took her hand and led her to the ticket redemption machine, where he frowned and stared at the machine in front of him instead of doing anything else. The people waiting in line behind them grew impatient and called out, “Hey, you guys in front of us! Are you going to redeem your tickets or not? Get out of the way if you aren’t going to redeem anything!” “Sorry, sorry, we’re almost done!” Noelle hurriedly apologized to the people waiting behind them before she stood on her tiptoes and whispered, “Don’t you know how to use the machine?” Charles glanced sideways at her, an indescribable look in his eyes. He did not say anything as he gave Noelle a long, knowing look. For some reason, Noelle found it funny as she took Charles’ phone from him and typed in the number displayed on the screen. Once the tickets were printed, Charles took them before Noelle could and held her hand in his as they walked away.Noelle allowed Charles to hold her hand as they walked away from the cro

A slight blush crept onto Noelle’s cheeks as she turned to Charles, feeling somewhat embarrassed as she said, “Girls usually have a thing for the domineering types!” When she saw the slight look of disbelief on Charles’ face, she bit down on her lip and added, “I’m serious, but this movie is stretching things out a little too far. If such domineering CEOs actually existed in the real world, I think it’d be easier for their presence to be accepted if they aren’t the best in everything!” “Mm-hmm!” Charles said as he raised an eyebrow. He did not retaliate but did not add on anything else either. Noelle felt somewhat embarrassed and hurriedly turned to watch the movie playing on the screen once again. However, she could not get over the fact that Charles was holding her left hand, and she could feel her heart racing. Noelle whispered, “Um… My palm is sweaty.” When Charles heard that, he gave Noelle a long, knowing look before he unfurled her fingers, placed her palm flat against

Noelle pouted. “Well, I thought successful people like you, especially business owners, are of the same caliber as celebrities.” She often heard rumors related to the business sphere from entertainment industry-related news and thus assumed that Charles was the same as them. However, Charles merely chuckled. “That applies to the others but not to me.” Then, he added, “No one really dares publish anything about me, and not that many people know what I look like.” He smiled. “You don’t have to worry about your husband being seduced by women with ulterior motives, Nelly.” Noelle did not know what to say to that. He seemed to have the ability to twist the truth into something that fit his narrative instead. “Well, that won’t work either. Didn’t you promise that we wouldn’t let anyone else know about our relationship yet? They’d figure things out if they saw us together, right?” “Why do you keep thinking about such things?” Charles asked, a rueful look on his face. “Why is it so

“Wow! They’re beautiful!” A tinkling voice interrupted the sales attendant. “I saw them during fashion week and heard that they’re the works of Cox. They looked so beautiful on Aubrey, and I wanted them the minute I laid my eyes on them. I didn’t know they were available for purchase in Brookville now!” Noelle froze when she heard that voice. Sure enough, Winter stepped into the store. She was followed by two other women who Noelle had met previously. They were all part of Winter’s posse and frequently caused her trouble. Noelle frowned and instinctively turned around to leave. However, Winter would not allow that to happen. She let out a cry of surprise, acting like she had just seen Noelle as she said, “Noelle! My goodness, are you shopping here as well, Noelle?” Winter walked over and put on a look of sisterly love on her face as she grasped Noelle’s hands. “Noelle, have you been very busy lately? Why haven’t you been visiting?” Noelle’s eyebrows rose so high they nearly d
