Chapter 441

Simon swirled the wine in his glass, taking confident strides toward Noelle. "Ms. Shaw, it's been a while," he greeted her.Noelle was surprised to see Simon in such a setting. Her astonishment was evident in her eyes. Raising an eyebrow, she looked at Simon and said, "Mr. York!"Frankly, she had not expected Winter to invite Simon to her birthday.Noelle's impression of Simon was far from positive; her previous encounters with him had led to some dangerous situations. His presence at this event only heightened her suspicions about why Winter had insisted on her attending.Frowning slightly, she asked Simon, "Are you close with my sister?"Simon raised an eyebrow in return. "No. To be precise, it's you and I who are more familiar with each other, no?"He gave her a suggestive look, his eyes lingering over her in a way that made Noelle uncomfortable.Seeing the clear disdain on Noelle's face, Simon's eyes briefly flashed with something unreadable before he quickly masked it. "You

Noelle stayed in the restroom for a while longer before she finally decided to leave.When she returned to the banquet hall, most of the guests had already gone through at least one round of drinks.Winter seemed to be in high spirits, moving around to entertain everyone. The women were clustered in groups, chatting about fashion and gossip, while the men discussed business or entertainment venues.As soon as Noelle walked back in, Winter's gaze immediately fixed on her. Winter glanced over at Annie, who gave her a subtle nod of confirmation.With that, Winter felt reassured and walked over to Noelle. "Noelle, where did you go? I thought you might have left early!""How could I? It's your birthday. I wouldn't leave before you cut the cake," Noelle responded, casually glancing around the room.Sure enough, she saw Suzy engaged in conversation with Simon, who was watching her with that same unreadable expression.Noelle felt uneasy under Simon's intense gaze and quickly looked awa

Winter exchanged a glance with Annie, who nodded and then looked over at Noelle.Noelle noticed Suzy and Simon leaving and pretended to feel dizzy, stumbling a few steps. Winter quickly came over to support her. "Noelle, what's wrong?"Noelle shook her head and smiled weakly. "It's nothing. I probably just drank too fast. I'm fine.""You're still saying you're fine when you're in this state? Look at you. Come on, let me help you rest for a bit. We won't be cutting the cake just yet. We're waiting for your brother-in-law to arrive," Winter said in a caring tone. "Let's go.""No need," Noelle refused, shaking her head. "It's your birthday today. It wouldn't be right for you to leave. I'll just sit here for a bit."Winter appeared to hesitate. "How about this? I'll ask Annie to take you to the rest area instead."She gave Annie a subtle look. "Annie, could you help take my sister to rest?""Of course!" Annie responded, moving to support Noelle. "Come on, I'll take you over.""Than

Xavier originally did not want to attend the event. For him, such gatherings were just a source of frustration, especially with the kind of people Winter had invited.Although he knew them all, he did not particularly like any of them. However, Winter was now his wife, and he couldn't simply ignore her. Besides, the thought of seeing Noelle today ultimately persuaded him to go.Winter was in the middle of talking to Annie when she saw that Xavier had arrived. She immediately rushed over to him and wrapped her arm around his, greeting him with a sweet smile. "Xavier, you're here!" she said cheerfully."You worked so late. Are you tired?"Xavier initially felt a bit reluctant, but seeing the smile on Winter's face and remembering that it was her birthday, he forced a smile. "I'm not tired. But I do hope you're not upset that I'm late.""Of course not! You're working hard to support us, so how could I be upset?" Winter responded, her tone oozing with affection. "Xavier, a lot of my f

"Alright!" Annie agreed readily. After Winter and Xavier had walked far away enough, a few others approached Annie and began chatting. "I heard that Noelle and Winter never got along since they were kids. Seems like there's a story there!""Do you remember what happened a few months ago during Winter's engagement party? Noelle caused quite a scene, claiming that the sisters were fighting over the same man. It even made the news.""Really? I didn't know about that.""Annie, do you know any details?""Why do we need details? Let's just follow them and see what's going on! I have a feeling something interesting is about to happen!"The group chatted amongst themselves, and soon, they all decided to follow along. Annie was the last to move.She quickly called Noelle, asking where she was and whether she had already left.At that moment, Noelle was in the restroom. She had initially planned to leave, but after reconsidering, she felt too unwilling to go. She wanted to see exactly wha

Winter's face immediately flushed red. "Maybe... we got the wrong room. She must be somewhere else!"However, Xavier's expression darkened, becoming almost terrifying. He stared at the door with his fists clenched tightly. Even his eyes were bloodshot. Frightened by Xavier's expression, Winter hurriedly said, "Xavier, let's check somewhere else!""It's your birthday, and this entire floor was reserved by me," Xavier growled through gritted teeth. "How could there be anyone else in here?""But..."Seeing that Xavier was about to push the door open, Winter quickly blocked his way. "Xavier, calm down. It might be a mistake. Don't do anything rash," she pleaded, noticing his expression growing more ominous. "Noelle isn't like that. She...""Move aside!""Xavier, don't!" Winter insisted, grabbing his arm and shaking her head. "Xavier, please. Others are coming!"Xavier looked up to see that most of the people from the party had gathered nearby.He scowled deeply and glanced at Win

Everyone's eyes were fixed on Noelle, sharing the same disbelief. It seemed as though they had all assumed that the person in the room was Noelle, so seeing her standing in front of them left them stunned.Noticing their reactions, Noelle looked around curiously. "Why wouldn't I be here? Wasn't it Annie who brought me here to rest?" she asked, turning to Annie.Annie quickly snapped out of her daze. "Yes, I did bring you here to rest, but you...""This is impossible, Noelle. Aren't you supposed to be in that room? That room..." Winter's mind was in complete chaos. She could not figure out where things had gone wrong.Annie had confirmed that Noelle was in the room, and Suzy had supposedly led Simon in as well. What was going on?"Why is it impossible? I was in the room resting, but I started feeling unwell from drinking too much, so I went to the restroom," Noelle explained.She then looked around the crowd, asking, "Why are you all gathered here? What are you doing?"Winter's f

The chaos of the scene dragged on for quite a while, with some people stepping in to separate the three involved. Meanwhile, others merely stood by and enjoyed the spectacle. Noelle simply stood coldly at the doorway, watching the absurdity unfold.She felt no sympathy for Suzy because if Noelle had not been forewarned, she knew she could have been the one suffering this humiliation. However, what Noelle could not fathom was how far Winter was willing to go to target her.Noelle's gaze grew increasingly icy as she looked at Winter. She clenched her fists silently, but inwardly, she had already decided Winter's fate.Winter was completely at a loss. She watched as Suzy curled up on the floor, her entire being in a state of shock.Though Suzy was now covered with clothes, her face was swollen and disfigured. Her hair was in disarray, and her arms bore visible marks of abuse.As Winter moved closer, Suzy panicked and pushed her away, shouting, "Don't touch me! Don't touch me!""Ev

When Winter entered the banquet hall, Xavier had already calmed down most of the guests, with many having already left.Only a few remained, including Noelle, who seemed to be waiting for her.Winter took a deep breath and approached. "Noelle."Noelle curled her lips into a smile. "You look upset, Winter. It's understandable. After all, having something like this happen at your birthday party would upset anyone. Especially when the main person involved is your best friend!"She smiled. "But are you more upset that your birthday party was ruined or that your good friend was taken advantage of?""Noelle, how could you say that? I didn't want something like this to happen either. I can hold my birthday party anytime, but… I didn't know this would happen."I'm sad because Suzy is my best friend, and she was hurt like that. But I'm also relieved that you weren't the one involved. Otherwise, it would've been you…""Yes, I'm relieved and happy too." Noelle smiled brightly at Winter.

The moment Winter saw Noelle standing unharmed before her, she already felt on the verge of breaking down.Now, seeing Simon's attitude while recalling Suzy's earlier state, Winter's resolve crumbled even further. She clenched her teeth, her fists tightening. "Mr. York, what are you doing here? I thought I saw you leave to rest after getting drunk.""Yes, I did feel a bit tipsy. Your good friend was kind enough to help me over," Simon replied, his sly fox-like eyes glinting with amusement.He gave Winter a once-over. "Ms. Shaw, are you sure you don't need a doctor? You shouldn't be looking so pale at your own birthday party!"Winter wavered, nearly losing her balance.There were rumors about Simon in the circles—that he was a cold and unprincipled man, the most ruthless of them all. It was also said that those who crossed him never met a good end.No matter how much Winter had schemed, she had not expected Simon to be this unyielding. It seemed he knew everything. "Mr. York, you'
