Chapter 235

Chapter 235 The afternoon bidding was scheduled to take place soon. Previously, Frotconn had been severelyweakened due to Collosus‘ sudden reduction in orders. If the bidding did not go well this time,Frotconn would be in serious trouble.

Joseph urgently called a meeting, and Noelle became the target of everyone’s criticism. She hadjust come out of the meeting and was feeling quite down. She had not recovered her mood yetwhen Charles‘ call came in.

Her lips twitched helplessly. “What do you need?”

For Charles to call at this hour, it was presumably because of something important. Nonetheless,Charles could tell something was off in Noelle’s voice. “What happened?”

Noelle explained the situation briefly. Charles scoffed, his long fingers tapping on the steeringwheel. “If you’re not happy there, why stay?”

Noelle was taken aback, not expecting Charles to say that. She gave a wry smile. “I’ve beenthinking about this for a while. If this hadn’t happened, I probably would’ve already started theprocess of resigning.”

She knew people in the company seemed to be against her, partly related to her past with Xavier.

Charles smirked. “Let’s not talk about this now. I’ll come to pick you up.”

“Pick me up? Where are we going?” Noelle was surprised. “Don’t you have work?”

“I’ll take you out for just a while. You’re not busy at Frotconn anyway, right?”

Charles had a point. During the meeting, Noelle had been told to hand over her work to others. Thematter was rather serious. They blamed her for the incident, effectively sidelining her.

Noelle was not naive. She understood what was happening.

She chuckled. “Alright, come get me!” She then hung up the phone.

Noelle paused for a moment before starting to pack her things. Her assistant, Ava, saw this andrushed over to stop her. “Ms. Shaw, what are you doing? This isn’t your fault. If you leave now,they’ll think you’re guilty!”

Noelle smiled and patted Ava’s hand. “I’m not leaving permanently. I’m just going home early sincethere’s nothing to do. Thank you for believing in me. You should keep working hard. I have to go fornow.”

“Ms. Shaw!” Ava watched Noelle leave with a frown on her face. She felt something was off withNoelle, especially her hesitant look earlier.

Downstairs, Noelle waited for a while before seeing Charles‘ car pull up not far away. Her phonerang, and it was Charles.

Smiling, Noelle waved before ending the call and running over. When she walked around to thefront passenger seat, she noticed Ronald inside.

Feeling somewhat stunned, she shut the door and got into the back seat instead. “Mr. Wells,you’re here too!”

“Yes, hello, Madam!” Ronald was startled when Noelle first opened the door but was relievedwhen she moved to the back.

Charles glanced at Ronald. “Why aren’t you driving?”

+15 BONUS “Yes, Mr. Hoffman!” Ronald quickly started the car, but he kept stealing cautious glances at Noelleand Charles. He then sat up straight and focused on the road.

Noelle was a bit surprised to see Ronald. She turned to look at Charles, who was calmly tapping hisknee. “Is my wife staring at me because she finds me handsome?”
