Chapter 237

Charles raised an eyebrow and smiled slightly. “Is my wife trying to avoid suspicion?”

Noelle rolled her eyes at him, feeling that his words carried a hint of mockery.

Chuckling, Charles squeezed Noelle’s hand. He sighed softly. “No one knows about our

relationship.”

Noelle turned her head to meet his resigned gaze. It was as if he was complaining. She bit her lip

and thought for a moment.

Indeed, it was her decision not to disclose their relationship. However, he had agreed to the

arrangement

back then. She did not force him.

She glanced at Ronald and then back at Charles, clearly indicating that some people did know

about their relationship.

Charles narrowed his eyes and cast a warning look at Ronald.

Ronald straightened his back even more, feeling a bit aggrieved. It seemed he was frequently

caught in the crossfire. He feigned a cough to boost his courage before saying, “Actually, you can

pretend I don’t exist, Madam. In most situations, I’m very discreet–almost invisible!”

Noelle was surprised and looked at Charles before bursting into laughter.

She found Charles‘ assistant quite interesting and not at all shy about his claim of being discreet.

Noelle smiled. “Alright, I’ll try to pretend you don’t exist!”

The car arrived at the underground parking garage of Royal Star Entertainment, where Charles had

a reserved parking spot. Ronald quickly got out and opened the door for Charles. “Mr. Hoffman,

Ruby called again to hurry us. She said Winter is throwing a tantrum.”

Charles pursed his lips. “Let her wait.” He wanted to see just how big of a tantrum Winter was

capable of

throwing.

Noelle got out of the car too. Upon hearing Ronald’s words, she frowned slightly. “She’s throwing a ·

tantrum?” Noelle was surprised because Winter, although unpleasant to her, usually controlled her

temper in public.

As a celebrity, Winter was always careful about her image. Noelle did not expect her to lose her

temper.

“Yes. She’s probably been waiting for too long,” Ronald said with a smile, showing no surprise at

Winter’s behavior. “That’s the way it is with celebrities–big egos.”

Ronald then looked at Charles. “Mr. Hoffman, what do you think?”

“Take her to Studio No. 1 and make sure the monitors are on.” Charles had his hands in his pockets.

He paused for a moment before asking, “What script did you give her?”

He usually left the entertainment company’s operations to others and was not familiar with the

details.

Ronald thought for a moment. “It’s a historical drama about spies. The role of the second female

lead is a villain who meets a tragic end. Mr. Hoffman, should we change it?”

Charles replied, “No need. That will do. Who’s the director?”

Ronald answered with a smile, “Mr. Miles Chevalier. Mr. Chevalier is known for being strict. He’s not

happy about this casting decision.”

Hearing that, Charles furrowed his brows together. “Then find a way to appease him.” He turned to

Noelle and said, “Let’s go up and take a look. You might have to come here often in the future.”

“Alright!” Noelle smiled, recalling the words she exchanged with Charles earlier and understanding

his meaning.

Charles and Noelle headed straight to the CEO’s office while Ronald called Ruby Clark. “Take

Winter to Studio No. 1. Has Mr. Chevalier arrived?”

“He refuses to come. He said there’s no point if the role has already been decided. He’s quite

unhappy about it but knows that he can’t do anything,” Ruby replied, still puzzled by Ronald’s

intentions.

“What’s the deal with this Winter chick? How does she have the connections to get the second

female lead role directly? Mr. Chevalier has had his eyes on Brielle Blake for this role, and he’s

really upset about the change now.”
