Noelle thought she would need to spend the new year by herself this year. She did not expect Charles to spend it with her. How could she not be overjoyed by that fact?
“But this reminds me of something.”
“What is it?” Noelle blinked as she leaned back into her seat. “What’s going on?”
“We haven’t met your maternal grandfather yet, have we?”
“Oh, right!” Noelle clapped a hand to her forehead, an aggrieved expression on her face. "I would have completely forgotten if you hadn’t reminded me. I always spend this time of year with him, but everything that’s happened recently has made me completely forget about it." Noelle sounded guilty. “Do you think he’ll be mad at me because of how long I haven’t called him?”
“Nope!” Charles said as he gently pinched Noelle’s nose. “He would never be mad at you.”
“Let’s go visit him now!” Noelle said as she picked up her phone and called May. She learned how Sebastian told May to prepare extra food for the last few days because Noelle would be visiting. However, after a few no-shows, he felt slightly miffed. However, the old man felt too embarrassed to express his feelings, so he decided to wallow in self-pity like a young child instead of calling Noelle.
Noelle could not help but chuckle as she listened to May complain about Sebastian. “May, please prepare some food. Charlie and I will be right there!”
“Mr. Hoffman will be joining?” A light shone in May’s eyes. “Gosh, alright. Alright, I’ll get to preparing the food immediately.”
