The Cherished Wife (Noelle and Charles) novel Chapter 125

Chapter 125 

Before heading in, Charles acted like any other diligent boyfriend and purchased popcorn and soda

Noelle held the bucket of popcorn in her arms and glanced sideways at the man standing next to her. When she saw the bottles of soda in his hands, she gulped. Actually, you didn’t have to” 

Shush!Cha 

Charles said as he placed a finger on Noelle’s lips. Time to head in.” 

It was the evening, which made it the perfect time for most couples to go on dates. Hence, the movie theatre was nearly filled by the time they entered the room. Noelle and Charlesseats were nearer to the corner, and they had to traipse across the room to get to it

When they finally sat down, Noelle heaved a sigh of relief. It’s been so long since I last watched a movie. I wasn’t expecting there to be so many people!” 

Yeah!Charles helped Noelle hold on to her bag, and he waited until she had settled down before handing her a bottle of soda. Thirsty?” 

Noelle shook her head. I’m alright!However, she still accepted the bottle and took a sip of soda

This place is near Vista University, so there are a lot of students,Charles said. Noelle glanced around the room and noted that it was indeed filled with plenty of young couples. She chuckled as she nodded and said, Yes, the fact that it’s so near Vista University means 

there are lots of students here. But the students now are so much braver than we used to be

I can’t believe they aren’t even trying to keep a low profile.” 

Huh? You dated while in university?Charles asked as he exhaled. Noelle glanced at him sideways and pursed her lips. Isn’t that normal?Then, she asked, Didn’t you date while you were in university?” 

Charles chuckled and reached a hand out to ruffle Noelle’s hair. You’re being a smartass.” 

Noelle pushed Charleshand away. I’m not being a smartass. I’m just stating the truth. At this age, we’re all bound to have some history,” she said as she turned to look at Charles again. I refuse to believe that you never dated while in college!” 

The corner of Charleslips curled upward as he placed his fingers on the armrest between them and took Noelle’s hand in his. Noelle blushed. What are you doing?” 

All he replied was, Watching the movie!” 

Noelle seemed to have more to say, but she decided against it when she noticed Charlesfull attention was on the screen. She could feel his hand on her finger and him squeezing it lightly from time to time

+15 BONUS 

Her entire body trembled slightly, feeling like an electric current was running through it. This sort of numbing feeling was not one she had ever experienced before

Noelle kept thinking of ways to remove her hand from Charlesgrasp. She could not even focus on watching the movie. However, whenever she tried to remove her hand, he seemed to intentionally tighten his hold by the tiniest bit

Noelle bit down on her lip. Let me go.”
