"Thank you so much, Charles. Your wife is very considerate," George praised Noelle generously.
"Yes, my wife is amazing!" Charles readily agreed, never holding back on complimenting Noelle in front of others.
After dropping George off, it was already quite late, so they decided not to head to the office and went straight home instead.
It had been an exhausting day. Feeling worn out, Noelle kicked off her shoes and went straight to the master bedroom to rest.
Knowing how tired she was, Charles did not disturb her and went to the study to review the survey data that Brian had given him.
He became engrossed in his work and lost track of time. He continued until late into the night. After a nap, Noelle woke up feeling much better. Upon noticing Charles was not beside her, she slipped out of bed to look for him.
Seeing the light on in the study, Noelle knocked gently on the door. Charles' calm voice came from inside, "Come in!"
Noelle opened the door and saw Charles deeply focused on his work. The dim lighting in the study cast a serene glow, creating a quiet, tranquil atmosphere.
Carrying a cup of tea, Noelle walked over and noticed Charles' desk was covered in various conversion formulas. Surprised, she picked up a sheet. "Charlie, you could totally take over my mentor's role."
"Hmm?" Charles accepted the tea from Noelle and took a sip, raising an eyebrow slightly. "New tea?"
"Yes. Grandpa brought it over, and there's quite a lot. He said his professor friends sent it. How is it?" Noelle smiled as she sat down beside him, glancing at Charles' papers and giving him a quick look-over.
