All Chapters of The Cherished Wife: Chapter 151 - Chapter 160

Samiel knew Winter's true colors all too well. She might act all proper when she was out, but at home, she was a different person. Her petty tricks might fool others, but they did not fool him."Domestic helpers are people too. They work hard for their money and deserve respect. You shouldn't be hitting people and breaking things. Where did you get such a temper?" Samuel tapped his cane on the floor before turning to Julian. "Look at the fine daughter you've raised.""Dad!" Julian was taken aback. He never thought Winter would do such things, especially at home. He believed that despite her occasional spoiled behavior, she was still a well-mannered young lady who might complain a bit about Noelle but nothing more. "I'll make sure to teach her a lesson about this.""Please teach her the right way," Samuel said, clearly not convinced. "I just don't understand how you've raised her. She's been overly competitive since she was little, always taking things from Noelle. Snatching a toy is

Jade quickly let go. "I'm so sorry, sweetheart. Are you okay?"Winter shook her head. "Why are you telling me to keep it a secret?" She had been hoping to use that secret to persuade her grandfather to change his mind.Jade looked sad. "Have you forgotten about Simon?""Simon York?" Winter gasped as the memory of that man flashed through her mind. She remembered the day she had brought Noelle to Simon. It had been a perfect chance, yet somehow, Noelle slipped away.Noelle was drugged that day. Winter had seen her mom double the dose in the coffee. Winter figured if Noelle ended up with Simon at Samuel's birthday party, Samuel would be let down by Noelle and Xavier would think less of her.If Noelle made a scene at Samuel's party, she would be just as disgraced as Simon.Winter had thought figured out, but no one expected Noelle to slip away. Simon did not catch Noelle. Instead, Noelle turned the tables and injured him, landing him in the hospital. That mess caused City Ring Cor

Ava could not shake the feeling of injustice, believing that those who did not know the truth should not speak. Yet, she knew that when many voices joined together, the noise could be overwhelming, and things were rarely as simple as they seemed."Time to get back to work!""Alright," Ava replied, her energy drained. However, as she turned, she caught sight of Xavier, and her expression turned complex.Noelle caught sight of Xavier as well, and her eyebrows knitted together in a slight frown. Their relationship had changed so much that she hardly ever spent time with him anymore. Xavier, however, did not seem to realize that things were different now.Xavier walked over, his lips pressed tightly together. He was not happy when he saw Noelle's look. "Yesterday, you..."Noelle interrupted, looking up, "What? Is there something you need, Mr. Harris?"Xavier's brows were creased with worry. "Why didn't you come home last night? You're a girl, and you didn't come home all night. Don't

"Let me go!" Noelle squirmed, feeling sick as she looked at Xavier. She swung her hand and slapped him hard across the face. "Snap out of it, Xavier! Look at me—I'm Noelle, not Winter. If you've lost your mind, go chase after Winter.""Noelle, I made a mistake. You know you're the one I love. With Winter... I just lost control. She lured me in, Noelle." Xavier suddenly wrapped his arms around Noelle. No matter how much she wriggled and squirmed, he would not let go.Xavier's grip was so tight that Noelle could barely catch her breath. She felt gross all over, especially hearing his words. "Let me go, Xavier! If you don't, I'm going to scream for help.""Go ahead and scream. I'll just tell everyone you like me and that we're a couple. Noelle, I know you're mad about Winter, but you've got to understand that she has shares in City Ring Corp. I had no choice." He gripped Noelle's arms, continuing, "After I marry Winter and get the shares, I'll divorce her. Then, it'll be just you and m

Noelle's heart clenched sharply as she gripped the phone tighter. She closed her eyes, taking a moment to calm herself. "Mom, do you really not understand the reason why I haven't been going home?""You..." Jade had not heard Noelle say a word until then. She had thought Noelle was still the same old pushover, easy for her to control. However, to her surprise, Noelle cut her off. "What the hell are you trying to say here?"Noelle said with a sad smile, "What do you think, Mom? You know exactly what I mean. Why did you call?" Noelle knew her mom well. Jade would not bother with her unless it was something big.Jade snapped, "Come back home! Don't you forget, this is your home. Your grandpa treats you so well, you—""I'm really busy right now!" Noelle cut in without hesitation. She would definitely visit Samuel because he had always been kind to her. However, he understood her and would not ask her to come back, so Jade's excuse was not going to work.Jade said through clenched te
