The Cherished Wife

Chapter 347



The light from outside streamed in, casting a glow around Charles, giving him an even more composed and steady presence. Noelle was mesmerized as she watched him. She might have continued staring if the office door had not been knocked on again.

Charles looked up, meeting Noelle's admiring gaze and smiling slightly. He gestured toward the door. "Go open the door."

Noelle snapped out of her daze. "Is that a good idea?"

Besides Ronald, she did not know any of the Collosus staff, and anyone who could come to Charles' office was likely important. If they saw her in Charles' office, they might start speculating.

Charles dismissed her concerns. "There's nothing to worry about. Just open the door."All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

Noelle nodded, letting go of her worries. She walked over to open the door.

She saw a woman wearing glasses and dressed in a professional office outfit. "Hello!"

The woman was momentarily surprised to see Noelle but quickly regained her composure and nodded slightly. "I'm Mr. Hoffman's secretary, Becky." Noelle stepped aside. "Please come in."

Becky smiled at Noelle again. "Mr. Hoffman, Cody from the Adams Corp is here!"

"Bring him in." Charles' cool voice came from behind Noelle.

Afterward, Becky left almost immediately.

Noelle turned to Charles. "Cody Adams? Annie's brother?" She bit her lip. "Should I leave?"

"No need!" Charles gestured for Noelle to come over.

Noelle walked over. Charles took her hand, leading her to the seating area.

Noelle tried to pull away, but Charles would not let go. She then asked in frustration, "What are you planning? Why did you call Cody here? And I've already forgiven Annie for what happened. I don't think there's any need..." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

The office door knocked again. Charles raised an eyebrow and smiled. "Come in!"

Becky opened the door again. "Mr. Adams, please come in. Mr. Hoffman is inside!"

Cody nodded and entered, initially not seeing Charles until he stood up. That was when Cody noticed Charles holding a woman's hand. "Mr. Hoffman!"

Charles nodded and looked toward the door. "Two cups of tea, one with lemon.'

"

"Yes, sir." Becky left, and Charles invited Cody to sit down.

Cody tried to appear calm, but he was nervous inside. He did not know Noelle, but he guessed that any woman who could sit next to

Charles and hold his hand was not

ordinary. Content belongs to

Charles glanced at Cody. "This is my wife, Noelle."

Both Noelle and Cody showed surprised expressions. Noelle shot Charles a sharp look, but he remained calm, gently patting her hand to signal her not to be angry.

Cody was stunned for a moment, his

mind racing. He had thought the

woman was Charles' girlfriend or lover, which explained why Charles punished Annie. However, realizing Noelle was Charles' wife made everything even clearer. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
