The Cherished Wife (Noelle and Charles) novel Chapter 270

Chapter 270

The landlord was fast on his feet, but the police were faster. When they saw Xavier looking like a mess, they did not hesitate to take him away.

Xavier was pretty drunk, but he could still think straight. The sight of two cops made him a bit more alert.” I’m just looking for my girlfriend. What’s going on? Let go of me!”

“Girlfriend? You’re out here making a scene in the middle of the night. People say you’ve been hanging around here a lot. And hey, I recognize you! Didn’t we just bring you in for questioning the other day?”

One cop remembered Xavier right away after seeing him like this. The other cop glanced over and said, Yep, it’s you. Let’s go. You’re making too much noise, and it’s late. You know that’s not allowed, right?” The cops did not wait for an answer before they took Xavier with them. He did not want to go and kept yelling for Noelle, “Noelle, come out! Tell them I’m your boyfriend, Noelle!”

After spending two hours at the police station, Xavier finally started to sober up. A cop noticed and said, Hey, we got a call about you causing trouble. Remember that?”

Xavier looked upset. “Did she call you? I wasn’t causing any trouble. She’s my girlfriend. You can call her and check. I’m telling the truth!”

“Fine. Call her, then,” the cop said, giving Xavier a look. “Go ahead. Maybe she’ll come get you.” Xavier’s face fell. He pulled out his phone but then paused. “Could I use your phone?”

The cop gave him a doubtful look, and Xavier, feeling embarrassed, ran his fingers through his hair. “My phone’s dead.”

The police finally gave him the phone, and Xavier quickly called Noelle’s number.
