The Cherished Wife (Noelle and Charles) novel Chapter 356

Getting in good with Charles would set you up for life.

Noelle had already checked in with Rowena and Teresa before she arrived. Knowing they got there first, she quickly looked around. Sure enough, she found them munching on snacks in a corner. She joined them, all smiles.

Xavier was busy welcoming guests. He spotted Noelle and tried to head over, but the crowd was thick. He barely took a few steps before someone stopped him to chat, and he just could not get away.

By then, Noelle was already chatting with Rowena and Teresa. "How did you two end up eating so early?"

"If we don't eat, what else can we do?" Rowena shrugged, nodding towards their classmates. "Look at them cozying up to the rich folks. Ugh!"

Noelle laughed and shook her head, grabbing a pastry from Rowena's plate. "You've got a point."

"Where's your husband? Why are you by yourself?"

"He'll be here any minute!" Noelle replied. "He's bound to show up at an event like this, but our relationship is kind of a secret, and I'd like to keep it that way."

Rowena and Teresa nodded at each other and pretended to zip their lips shut.

Out of nowhere, Rowena shouted, "Look, it's Charles. He's here!"
