Chapter 281
The Cherished Wife
Only then did Noelle react. âWait! Youâve been off work for so long, but I havenât cooked!â
She suddenly realized it and had a guilty look on her face. âWhy didnât you remind me earlier?
Youâve been busy all day, and I was at home doing nothing. You donât even get to come home to a
hot meal!â
âSilly girl.â Charles touched Noelleâs face and pinched her cheek. âItâs alright. Change your clothes,
and Iâll take you out for dinner. We can also pick out a gift for Grandpa.â
âOkay!â Noelle grabbed Charlesâs hand, stood on her tiptoes, and kissed the corner of his lips.
âThen you change your clothes too. Weâll head out!â
Charlesâ eyes twinkled with amusement as he touched his lips and followed Noelle
into the walkâin closet.
Visiting Sebastian was indeed a bit of a hassle. It was not that Charles was afraid of anything, but
the timing was a bit early. However, it was not a big deal.
He never intended to keep their marriage a secret from everyone. Noelle had her reasons for
wanting to keep it quiet initially, and he did not want to force her.
â
He watched Noelleâs back and smiled as she held up two outfits in front of him. Charles, do you
think this one looks better or this one?â Noelle asked with a smile. Which one should I wear?â
âThey both look good!â Charlesâ eyes sparkled with amusement, but Noelle was not satisfied and
gave him a playful glare. âI can only wear one!â
âThen wear this one.â Charles pointed casually to one outfit. âWear this one for dinner tonight and
the other one tomorrow when we visit Grandpa.â
He took the other outfit and put it back. âHurry and get changed now.â
Women loved looking their best and hearing compliments, especially from their husbands. It would
always make them happy. Noelle was not a vain woman, but she still enjoyed hearing such pleasant
words.
After changing, Noelle spun in front of the mirror, adjusting the tags. She noticed Charles had also
changed his clothes. âCharles, is Saint Di your own brand?â
Charles raised an eyebrow. âWhy do you ask?â
Noelle chuckled. âIâve been meaning to ask long ago. Since I moved into Phoenix Tree Residence, I
havenât shopped for any clothes. Apart from what I brought, everything in the closet is from this
brand.â
Charles laughed. âYes, itâs under Collosus. There are counters in all Collosus malls, but not many
people know that.â
As he spoke, he picked up a tie, his eyes twinkling with a hidden meaning as he looked at Noelle.
Noelle squinted at him, took the tie from his hand, and resigned herself to tie it for him.
Standing on her tiptoes, she wrapped her arms around Charlesâ neck, lightly exhaling as she said,
âItâs not that Iâm complaining, but your hands are working just fine. Why do I have to tie your tie?
Before we got married, you tied it yourself!â
Charles chuckled softly. Noelle raised an eyebrow and looked at him askew. âWhat? Did I say
something wrong?â
âSince weâre married, isnât it a wifeâs job to do this? Thereâs a saying that if a woman ties her manâs
tie, she can bind him for life!â
