The Cherished Wife (Noelle and Charles) novel Chapter 127

Chapter 127 

“Gosh, they’re so sweet. You know, I’m wondering why I even bothered watching a movie with you. It’s one thing to see such sweet interactions in a movie, but it’s happening in real life as well. Meanwhile, I feel like a neglected puppy.” 

The man’s displeased voice rang out, “Are you a bitch? You’re so unreasonable today!” 

“What did you say? Try calling me a bitch again!” the woman’s voice, which took on a rough edge, rang out. “Am I a bitch?* 

“Did I say you were a bitch? You were the one going on about feeling like a neglected puppy.” 

The girl said, “You don’t love me anymore.” 

The guy answered, “Do we have to act in such pretentious ways for you to believe that I like you?” 

Noelle was speechless. Why were they getting dragged into the fight? She turned to Charles and said, “He said we’re being pretentious!” 

“Yep, it’s because he’s jealous of us!” Charles concluded before he picked up another piece of popcorn and stuffed it into Noelle’s mouth. “Have some!” 

Noelle marveled at how childish he could be at times. 

To be frank, she did agree with the man when he said she and Charles were being pretentious. However, she did not dare say that out loud because though they were not dating, they were married! 

Besides, everything Charles had done today was quite thoughtful, satisfying the tiny bit of pride within her. At least now, she was enjoying the time she was spending with Charles. 

The movie ended, and Noelle ended up being the one who ate most of the popcorn they had brought into the theater as well as being the one who drank most of the soda. She began feeling unwell as they walked out of the theater. 

She felt like her stomach was about to explode “It’s all your fault. Why did you feed me so much popcorn?” 

“I thought you liked it!” Charles said as he directed his gaze downward to look at Noelle’s stomach. Then, he said confidently, “It’s gotten a little rounder!” 

“Charles Hoffman!” Noelle gritted her teeth. “Can’t you say it more nicely?” 

Charles smiled, his mood brightening as he watched Noelle grit her teeth at him. He reached a hand out to take Noelle’s, wrapping his large palm over her small one, “Alright, what would 

you like me to say?” 

“What do you think?”

“That I’ll love you no matter if you’re in the shape of a ball or a pancake?” Charles asked as he narrowed his eyes. 

Noelle bit down on her lip and tugged her hand free from Charles‘ grasp. “You’re so annoying!” 

Noelle strode forth as she spoke, and a smiling expression appeared in Charles‘ eyes. He grinned ruefully as he watched the petite woman walk away. In a couple of long strides, he caught up to her and took her hand. 

Noelle felt a warmth envelop her hand and smiled slightly as she watched Charles take her hand into his. “Should we head back now?”
