Chapter 260
The Cherished Wife (Noelle and Charles)
Chapter 260 âHe does!â Noelle blushed a little as she saw Samuel finish his bowl and quickly got him another. âDrink up, Grandpa!â
Samuel was touched by how thoughtful Noelle was. Suddenly, something crossed his mind, and helooked at her curiously. âYouâve been coming around a lot lately. Arenât you still working?â
Noelleâs gaze darted away, and she told Samuel all about what had happened at Frotconn. Hiseyes, which were usually calm, suddenly sparkled with anger. âThat Joseph treats my Noelle sobadly!â
âItâs okay,â Noelle reassured him. âEven before all this happened, I was thinking about quitting.Things with Xavier are so awkward now, and Winter canât stand me. I didnât want to stay atFrotconn, but I never thought theyâd let me go first.â
Noelle sounded a bit sad. She had been at Frotconn since she graduated, and she and Xavier hadbeen so happy together once. back then, they even planned out their future. Joseph had liked herthen and had given the relationship his blessing.
Noelle never imagined that just one year away on a business trip would change everything somuch.
âLet it go. Heâs not worth your time. Since youâve stopped working there, just move on!â Samuel wasnot really on board with Noelle working at Frotconn anymore, but he knew his granddaughter well.
Noelle might look gentle, but she was actually very determined and strongâwilled.
She knew right from wrong and was not afraid to show her feelings.
Samuel did not want to meddle in Noelleâs life. With the kind of family she had, he could not alwaysbe there to protect her, even though he was her grandfather. Noelle cared deeply about her familyand friends, and even though her parents were not always kind, she could not be harsh with them.That meant she often got the short end of the stick.
âSo, whatâs your plan?â
âIâm not sure yet. Maybe Iâll just rest for a bit!â Noelle said with a smile. âGrandpa, youâre not worriedabout me finding a job, are you?â
âOh, you!â Samuel knew Noelle was just trying to make him feel better. With her skills, she would nothave trouble finding another role. âWhat does Charles think about you being out of work?â
Noelle bit her lip, sensing that Samuel was still worried about her. She took a deep breath andexplained, âCharles thinks I should take a little break before I start working at Collosus Group.â Shechuckled. âCollosus Group is great, but I want to forge my own career path.â
Samuel nodded. âCharles is smart. Working at Collosus Group would be good for you.â He pattedNoelleâs hand gently. âSweetie, are you sure youâre okay with giving up your City Ring Corp.shares?â
Noelle blinked in surprise. âGrandpa, are you having second thoughts?â
âOh, kiddo!â Samuel gave her a playful yet exasperated look. âThe shares are yours now, so youcan do whatever you want with them. I just want you to think it through, especially when it comes toCharlesâ¦
