The Cherished Wife (Noelle and Charles) novel Chapter 718

Janet said that as she glanced at the man across her. The middle-aged guy was rocking a black coat and did not have a hair out of place. His hair was starting to show some silver, but he was as lively as ever. That was Janet's adoptive dad, Charles's Uncle, Milo.

He was there to catch up with Janet and check out what was happening with Charles.

Milo eyed the photo, lost in thought for a moment. "Bob Smith. You're positive this is the guy?"

Janet nodded. "Absolutely. Jade was the one who played matchmaker for them, and I've got the snapshot from their blind date!" Janet whipped out the photo from when Sean and Noelle were set up and handed it to Milo. "These two have been in touch the whole time, but it looks like Noelle's mom, Jade, is clueless. Noelle's got to be sharp, probably looking to ditch the Shaw family with Bob's help, but without giving them any perks in return!"

Milo narrowed his eyes. "Call off the tail on Noelle, will you?"

"Why?" Janet was puzzled. "Dad, last time I tried to pull them back, you stopped me! You were convinced Noelle was trouble. What's changed?"

"Don't you know who Bob Smith is?" Milo's lips tightened. He had not expected to hit a snag like this.

"Bob, he's just one of the Smiths, right? He's not even on Charles's level in Brookville! Dad, are you scared of Bob or something?" Janet might have realized Noelle and Charles were over, but she could not shake off the unease. Noelle's face was a spitting image of that woman she loathed.

Even if Noelle was Bob's girl now, she worked at Collosus Group. There was no telling if Charles might see Noelle and start getting ideas. "Dad, I don't want her at Collosus Group. Make it happen, get her out."
