The Cherished Wife (Noelle and Charles) novel Chapter 621

Yes, Kelly was tarnished now!

Janet regained her composure, gulping to calm her nerves before glancing around her. "Aunt Clary, no one saw me in the state I was in just now, right?” She had nearly forgotten that they were at an annual dinner where plenty of people were present.

Clarisse breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Janet return to normal. “It’s alright, no one noticed.” Although that was what Clarisse claimed, the truth was that plenty of people had noticed. Still, they all decided to turn a blind eye because of Clarisse and Janet’s identities.

“Calm down. Also, did you do the decorations for the venue this year?” Clarisse asked as she swept an admiring gaze across the room. “Not bad. You’re becoming more and more competent, Janet. Charles will be pleased when he learns of this.”

“Really, Aunt Clary?”

“Of course. Since when have I lied to you? Enough of that for now, you’ll be hosting the annual dinner later, so why don’t you go powder your nose? You must make sure to put your best self out later, and make sure Charles sees you,” Clarisse said encouragingly to Janet. When she saw Henry walk over while Nancy held onto his arm, Clarisse frowned before drawing in a breath and saying, “Go on, Janet!”

“Alright, Aunt Clary. I’ll take my leave for now, and return to you later!”

Janet happily headed backstage to touch up her makeup while Clarisse made her way over to Henry. “Henry, Nancy. It’s been a while.”

“You’re a funny one, Clarisse. It’s only been a few days!” Henry said as he helped Nancy make her way past Clarisse and took a seat nearby. “Nancy, do you want a drink?”

“Water is fine!” Nancy said as she smiled. When she noticed Clarisse walking over, she said, “Clarisse, would you like to join me? Henry was just about to get me some water, would you like some too?”

Clarisse pursed her lips together, an ugly look on her face as she nodded. "Thanks for the trouble, Henry.” Then, she added, “Don’t worry about Nancy, Henry. I’ll take care of her.”
