The Cherished Wife (Noelle and Charles) novel Chapter 391

Arya happened to come over just then. "Mr. Parker, are you heading out now? Are you going to West City?"

"Yes." Brian took the documents from Arya, glanced at them, and said, "Redo these. Also, you don't need to come with me today. Noelle will accompany me. I need the revised data on my desk by the time I return."

He handed the documents back to Arya. "Understood?"

Arya quickly came to her senses but shot a meaningful glance at Noelle. Noelle returned the look with a kind smile.

Brian did not pay much attention to the exchange. When he noticed Noelle was not following him, he turned back with a hint of displeasure. "Ms. Shaw, you've just joined the company. Do you want to leave a bad impression on your boss right away?"

"I'm coming right now!" Noelle hurried to catch up.

"Mr. Parker, I'm new here and still a rookie. Aren't you worried about what others might say if you take me along on an outing so soon?" Noelle had not thought much of it at first, but Arya's glance just now clearly felt different from the way she had looked at her before.

Brian paused. He pressed the elevator button and then glanced sideways at Noelle. "Don't forget that you came to Collosus Group to work—for yourself and for the company. You shouldn't concern yourself with what your colleagues think."

Brian had always been meticulous in his work. For him, work was work, and personal matters were to be handled during personal time. He was not interested in managing the emotions of employees or subordinates upset by uneven work distribution—he simply did not have the time for that.

Noelle pursed her lips. "I understand." She realized that Brian was right, leaving her with nothing to argue against.

However, she could not help but think that starting her new job by potentially making enemies was not the best way to begin.
