The Cherished Wife

Samuel paused, then broke into a smile. “You mentioned that last time!” He remembered Noelle telling him about the Royal Star Entertainment shares. “What I meant was…”

“Grandpa, don’t worry. Charles is really good to me,” Noelle told Samuel, signaling that she was okay. “He’s not like Xavier. He’s got everything he needs, and he definitely doesn’t need any shares in City Ring Corp.!”

Samuel’s eyes twinkled, and he nodded. “I get it,” he said. City Ring Corp. was tiny compared to the giant Collosus Group, and Samuel knew that well. “All I want is for you to be happy, Noelle. Sure, money and shares are just material items, but sometimes, they’re pretty important!”

Noelle nodded back. “I know what you mean–you want me to be safe and sound in the future! Charles told me that even though he has the shares, he won’t use them. They’re basically still mine.” She grinned. ” Actually, I got a better deal. I traded shares with him for Royal Star Entertainment, and he even gave me his shares. So now, I’m the biggest owner of Royal Star Entertainment!”

Samuel looked surprised. “So, you’re the top owner of Royal Star Entertainment now?” He had not expected Charles to do so much for Noelle. “Well, that’s a relief. Noelle, when can you bring him to see him? I’d like to meet him properly.”

Noelle did not stop walking, even as Xavier spoke. He quickly stepped in front of her, blocking her path. “Does it have to be this way between

“What other way could it be?” Noelle’s lips twisted into a mocking smile. She looked at Xavier with disdain. He had destroyed the last shred of her respect for him. “Mr. Harris, please move!”

Xavier stood in her way. “I heard about your troubles. Why didn’t you come to me?”

“What troubles?” Noelle looked up, her eyes icy. “Why should I come to you?*

“You know what I mean. I could help you with the company. You’re in trouble, so why didn’t you seek me out? And as for those documents, did you…” © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“Does it matter?” Noelle cut Xavier off, a playful smirk on her lips. “Do you really care if something bad happens to me? Or if I was the one who leaked the information?”

Xavier scowled, not liking this sharp version of Noelle. He remembered her differently. “Of course it matters. You’re…”

“Stop, Xavier.” Noelle waved him off, tired of his excuses. “It doesn’t matter anymore. I don’t want to talk about it. You know the truth. I’m not in the mood, and I don’t have time for this.”
