The Cherished Wife

Chapter 260



“He does!” Noelle blushed a little as she saw Samuel finish his bowl and quickly got him another. ” Drink up, Grandpa!”

Samuel was touched by how thoughtful Noelle was. Suddenly, something crossed his mind, and he looked at her curiously. “You’ve been coming around a lot lately. Aren’t you still working?”

Noelle’s gaze darted away, and she told Samuel all about what had happened at Frotconn. His eyes, which were usually calm, suddenly sparkled with anger. “That Joseph treats my Noelle so badly!”

“It’s okay,” Noelle reassured him. “Even before all this happened, I was thinking about quitting. Things with Xavier are so awkward now, and Winter can’t stand me. I didn’t want to stay at Frotconn, but I never thought they’d let me go first.”

Noelle sounded a bit sad. She had been at Frotconn since she graduated, and she and Xavier had been so happy together once. back then, they even planned out their future. Joseph had liked her then and had given the relationship his blessing.

Noelle never imagined that just one year away on a business trip would change everything so much.

“Let it go. He’s not worth your time. Since you’ve stopped working there, just move on!” Samuel was not really on board with Noelle working at Frotconn anymore, but he knew his granddaughter well.

Noelle might look gentle, but she was actually very determined and strong–willed.

She knew right from wrong and was not afraid to show her feelings.

Samuel did not want to meddle in Noelle’s life. With the kind of family she had, he could not always be there to protect her, even though he was her grandfather. Noelle cared deeply about her family and friends, and even though her parents were not always kind, she could not be harsh with them. That meant she often got the short end of the stick.

“So, what’s your plan?”

“I’m not sure yet. Maybe I’ll just rest for a bit!” Noelle said with a smile. “Grandpa, you’re not worried about me finding a job, are you?”

“Oh, you!” Samuel knew Noelle was just trying to make him feel better. With her skills, she would not have trouble finding another role. “What does Charles think about you being out of work?”

Noelle bit her lip, sensing that Samuel was still worried about her. She took a deep breath and explained, “Charles thinks I should take a little break before I start working at Collosus Group.” She chuckled. “Collosus Group is great, but I want to forge my own career path.”

Samuel nodded. “Charles is smart. Working at Collosus Group would be good for you.” He patted Noelle’s hand gently. “Sweetie, are you sure you’re okay with giving up your City Ring Corp. shares?”

Noelle blinked in surprise. “Grandpa, are you having second thoughts?”

“Oh, kiddo!” Samuel gave her a playful yet exasperated look. “The shares are yours now, so you can do whatever you want with them. I just want you to think it through, especially when it comes to Charles…
