Chapter 121

Every table was occupied when they walked in. Thankfully, Noelle had made a reservation half an hour earlier. She looked embarrassed as she ruffled her hair and said, “Actually… We could go somewhere else for dinner!” “It’s alright!” Charles said as he took Noelle’s hand and led her to the waiting area. She was stunned and allowed him to hold one of her hands while she used the other to hold their waiting number. Charles let go of Noelle’s hand as they sat down, leaving her grasping air and feeling empty. She looked down at where Charles had been holding her just now, leaving her palm slightly damp. A slight blush crept onto Noelle’s face as she gazed at her palm, and she hurriedly looked away, only to have her gaze collide with Charles’ eyes. She felt her heart skip a beat as she instinctively tightened her hold on the number, the corner of her lips tugging upward as she said, “What a crowd!” “Yeah,” Charles replied, the hint of a smile appearing in his eyes. “No rush.” “No

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

Noelle smiled. When she saw that Charles was serving her food, she hurriedly took her bowl from him and said, “Let me do it!”Charles merely smiled as he said, “Let’s eat!” Noelle enjoyed her meal thoroughly. After all, it had been some time since she could eat so freely. However, she noticed that Charles did not have much to eat. It was evident that he was not the biggest fan of spicy food, and she quietly took note of that. As the two headed downstairs after finishing the meal, they bumped into another couple leaving the cinema. It sounded like they were discussing the plot of the movie they had just watched. “You said you’d watch the movie with me, but you ended up falling asleep!” “It’s not my fault! Girls love watching miscommunication tropes, but do misunderstandings really happen that frequently in real life?” “But these movies are inspired by real life! Of course it’s an exaggerated version of real life! There’s no way it would be identical to daily life. I don’t care.

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

Before heading in, Charles acted like any other diligent boyfriend and purchased popcorn and soda.Noelle held the bucket of popcorn in her arms and glanced sideways at the man standing next to her. When she saw the bottles of soda in his hands, she gulped. "Actually, you didn’t have to…” “Shush!” Charles said as he placed a finger on Noelle’s lips. “Time to head in.” It was the evening, which made it the perfect time for most couples to go on dates. Hence, the movie theatre was nearly filled by the time they entered the room. Noelle and Charles’ seats were nearer to the corner, and they had to traipse across the room to get to it.When they finally sat down, Noelle heaved a sigh of relief. “It’s been so long since I last watched a movie. I wasn’t expecting there to be so many people!” “Yeah!” Charles helped Noelle hold on to her bag, and he waited until she had settled down before handing her a bottle of soda. “Thirsty?” Noelle shook her head. "I’m alright!” However, she sti

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

“Gosh, they’re so sweet. You know, I’m wondering why I even bothered watching a movie with you. It’s one thing to see such sweet interactions in a movie, but it’s happening in real life as well. Meanwhile, I feel like a neglected puppy."The man’s displeased voice rang out, “Are you a bitch? You're so unreasonable today!” “What did you say? Try calling me a bitch again!” the woman's voice, which took on a rough edge, rang out. “Am I a bitch?” “Did I say you were a bitch? You were the one going on about feeling like a neglected puppy.” The girl said, “You don’t love me anymore.” The guy answered, “Do we have to act in such pretentious ways for you to believe that I like you?” Noelle was speechless. Why were they getting dragged into the fight? She turned to Charles and said, “He said we’re being pretentious!” “Yep, it’s because he’s jealous of us!” Charles concluded before he picked up another piece of popcorn and stuffed it into Noelle’s mouth. “Have some!” Noelle marvel

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

Noelle shook her head. “I’m alright.” Charles looked at Noelle’s feet, and a solemn look appeared in his eyes when he saw the high heels she was wearing. “Let’s go!” “Where are we going?” Charles answered, "To get you some shoes! You have to speak up when you aren’t feeling well in the future, alright?” Noelle was stunned, and she blinked before saying, “It’s alright, I’m alright. I’ve got a lot of shoes at home. No need to buy any more!” She thought Charles was overreacting, but he did not give her any chance to object to his decision before he took her to the area of the shopping mall dedicated to selling shoes and into one of the shops. When the attendant caught sight of Charles and the expensive-looking suit he was wearing, she could not help but affix her gaze onto him. However, she hurriedly averted her gaze when Charles swept his stern gaze across her. Noelle pursed her lips and raised her eyebrows slightly. “See? She doesn’t know who you are, but your presence is

“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
