The Cherished Wife (Noelle and Charles) novel Chapter 341

Noelle nodded heavily. "It seems something happened between her and Winter. Her attitude towards Winter has changed."

"Of course, it has. You didn't see what happened last time. After you passed out and Charles took you away, he found out it was Annie and her friends.

"He had her taken away, and Winter didn't say a word the whole time. She just turned away and pretended not to know Annie, watching as she was taken away. But speaking of Annie's face…" Rowena said, exchanging a glance with Teresa.

Teresa fell silent for a moment. The eerie quiet between the two made Noelle suspicious. "You're saying that after I passed out, Annie was taken away? And that night... Whatever happened to Annie's face was because of Charles?"

Rowena looked up, pretending to be busy. "Wow! The mall is really crowded today, Isn't it, Teresa?"

"Yes, yes. It's the weekend, so it's bound to be crowded," Teresa quickly agreed. "So, should we keep shopping?"

Noelle sighed. Seeing their blatant attempt to change the subject, she decided to drop it.

…

In the evening, Noelle told Charles about running into Annie. Charles was holding Noelle in his arms, his passionate kisses trailing along her shoulder and neck.
