The Cherished Wife (Noelle and Charles) novel Chapter 893

"No way! Brandon is so adorable, and he really likes me!" Noelle said as she placed the cup on the desk. Then, glancing at the stack of documents, she frowned slightly. "You still have so much work left?"

"Yeah."

"By the way, about what I mentioned earlier today, you should probably look into it. I have this feeling Tania's story doesn't add up. You should've seen how she reacted when she saw Peter. I was there with him at the airport, and the moment she saw me, she was full of hostility."

"Really?" Charles raised an eyebrow. "Are you tattling?"

"I'm being serious!" Noelle glared at him. "She seemed to think there was something between Peter and me. You have no idea how furious she was when she talked to him, like she was spitting fire.

"And then she was cold toward me too. I think she still has feelings for Peter. As for her saying she's married… Well, I'd suggest you dig into that." Noelle patted Charles' shoulder as if she was passing on a great responsibility.

Charles chuckled at Noelle's exaggerated gesture, giving her a light pat on the back. "I've already asked Ronald to investigate. And does Peter know about Brandon?"

Noelle nodded. "Know about him? Peter looked like he was barely holding it together when he first saw Brandon. Honestly, when Tania had Brandon address him as Mr. Lennon, Peter's face was priceless.

"But I didn't expect Peter to actually carry Brandon later on. I thought he'd be furious, especially with Tania claiming the child isn't his. I figured he'd at least take it out on the kid."

"Peter's not like that." Charles shook his head. He was certain of that.

"But what if Brandon really isn't Peter's son? Wouldn't that—"

"As long as he's Tania's child, Peter will accept him." Charles pulled Noelle closer into his arms. "You still don't fully understand Peter. He… loves Tania deeply."
