All Chapters of The Cherished Wife: Chapter 181 - Chapter 190

Teresa was a quiet girl, which was why she and Noelle had opened a garden house together. Apart from managing the garden house, she spent her days reading.Rowena, on the other hand, was different. She was energetic and lively, the most active of the three. That was why Rowena chose a career as a reporter, and she was constantly traveling across the country.The three good friends finally got together, so they made sure to have a great time. They visited several shops and bought a bunch of clothes. Then again, most of them were picked out by Rowena, though they were not for herself but for Noelle.Rowena's reasoning was simple. Since Noelle was now married to Charles, she needed to dress up and could not continue dressing in her old style.Noelle did not see anything wrong with her previous wardrobe, but she went along with it.Teresa was quite surprised. "Noelle, you're married?"Teresa was indeed taken aback. She knew a bit about Noelle and Xavier's situation. Noelle had been o

"Didn't you say to call you when my friends were ready to meet? Is today okay?" Noelle asked cautiously while Rowena yelled from the side, "Hey, Noelle's darling, when are you treating us to a meal?"Charles' narrow eyes brightened instantly at Rowena's words, his lips curving into a smile. He suddenly felt a surge of good mood.He then waved to Andrew, indicating that he was leaving.Andrew stared at Charles in disbelief. To him, Charles had always been an imposing figure, someone who kept others at a distance. He had never seen this gentle side of Charles before. As Charles walked away, he exuded a soft aura."What the hell?!" Andrew's back was suddenly slapped by someone, and he instinctively countered with a grappling move. It led to a brief tussle before it stopped. "Don't slap my back like that."Andrew was big but not dim-witted. "By the way, is Mr. Hoffman in a celebratory mood lately?"Ronald was Charles' assistant and was often by his side, which made Andrew a bit envio

Noelle bit her lip, unsure of how to explain. "It was a coincidence. I was drugged twice, and he saved me both times. Later, I found out he was my grandfather's student. "Do you remember my grandfather's favorite student? The prodigy who finished all university courses at a young age and then went abroad?""That's Charles? No way!" Rowena exclaimed, glancing at Noelle in astonishment. "You two are really fated! So, you married Charles because he was your grandfather's student?"Noelle shook her head. "You know my situation. Besides my grandfather, the rest of the Shaws treat me terribly." Noelle then told Rowena and Teresa the gist of what had happened.Rowena's eyes widened. "So, that's why you married Charles? This sounds so unreal. But the Shaw family members are truly awful. You're also a part of the family. How could they treat you like that?""That's not the main point. But is this truly what you want, Noelle?" Teresa was more concerned about Noelle's feelings. "I understan

Not only Sean but even Rowena and Teresa noticed something different about Charles.Noelle smiled. "Yes, I'm back.""Hi, Charles. Remember me? We met last night." Rowena waved. "I'm Noelle's friend, Rowena. And this is Teresa.""Yes, hello!" Charles greeted them with a smile. Rowena's friendly greeting put him in an exceptionally good mood."Hey, hey, hey, Charles Hoffman. Is this how you treat your friends?" Sean could not stand Charles showing favoritism right in front of him."Do you have a problem with that? Why are you here this time?" Charles glanced at Sean. He had not invited him over.Sean pursed his lips. "Can't I just visit you after not seeing you for a while?" Sean had seen people burn bridges before, but not quite like this. His charming eyes, though smiling, gave off a menacing vibe.Charles narrowed his eyes, not bothering to respond to Sean. Instead, he walked over to relieve Noelle of her things, taking them in his hands. "Are you tired? Go rest with your frien

Noelle entered the kitchen and saw Charles busy cooking. She stood at the door for a while. Sensing her presence, Charles paused and asked, "Why aren't you sitting with them?""We're all just sitting around while you're busy by yourself. Can you manage everything?" Noelle observed Charles for a bit, noticing his methodical approach to cooking. She watched for a while before asking, "Do you need any help?"Charles' movements hesitated slightly and then he nodded. "Check on the stew. I had it on high heat earlier. You can turn it down to a simmer now.""Okay!" Noelle walked over and took a sniff. "It smells great. What kind of stew is it?""Lamb stew," Charles replied after a moment. "You were drugged yesterday. There's probably still some residue in your system. Eating some stew will be good for you."Noelle smiled and nodded. "Alright. But what kind of drug did I take? I don't remember anything. And about Winter..." Noelle suddenly realized something had been bothering her all d
