The Cherished Wife (Noelle and Charles) novel Chapter 288

Chapter 288

That evening, when they returned, Noelle kept asking Charles about what had transpired between him and Sebastian.

Previously, Noelle had sensed that although her grandfather did not voice it, he was quite displeased with their decision to marry before informing him. Yet, after Charles played a game of chess with him, Sebastian seemed to change his mind and even appeared to be in a good mood.

During dinner, Sebastian ate two whole plates and kept serving Charles more food, a privilege even Noelle had not experienced.

When Charles was busy, Noelle took the opportunity to ask her grandfather what he had discussed with Charles and assured him that her marriage with Charles would be happy.

In response, Sebastian knocked on her head, saying, “You’ve quickly forgotten your roots.” He remarked that she was already siding with Charles just after getting married.

However, Sebastian’s tone lacked any anger, and he seemed quite relieved. Noelle could tell that her grandfather had accepted their marriage, but neither Sebastian nor Charles revealed how Charles had managed to persuade him.

After they left her grandfather’s house, Noelle kept pestering Charles to explain what had happened.

While driving, Charles glanced at Noelle, who was visibly bothered by this mystery. He smiled, reached out to ruffle her hair, and said, “It wasn’t much. I just assured your grandfather that I would always take good care of you and let him supervise me.”

“I don’t believe you!” Noelle raised her chin defiantly. “Grandpa isn’t that easily convinced. I don’t believe that just saying that made him overlook everything.”

Charles chuckled. “So, you mean you want him to give us a hard time?”
