The Cherished Wife novel Chapter 299

“Noelle!” Yevgen called out to her. “Do you mind giving me your number? We’re old friends, after all. It’d be nice to keep in contact.”

Her eyes narrowed. “I’m sorry. Can this wait until I’m back?”

Noelle was feeling extremely dizzy, and she left quickly before Yevgen could reply. He watched as she walked farther away, but his eyes refused to leave her.

“I wonder what’s this called. A dead end?”

Yevgen’s eyes narrowed as he turned to look into Annie’s taunting eyes. It only upset him. “This is none of your business!”

Annie sneered, “Yes, this is none of my business. Do you think I’m still the same Annie from before?”

Yevgen frowned. He did not want to stay there with Annie and he walked past her to leave. Annie stared at his back while laughing and saying, “Don’t you want to know what happened to Noelle the last few years?”

Annie looked gleeful as she smiled mysteriously.

Noelle finally found the bathroom after turning several corners. She went into a stall to relieve herself and felt much better when she walked out. She stood in front of the sink and stared at the person in the mirror. Her face was flushed red. It was a sign of her drinking too much.

Sighing, she splashed her face with water. Noelle felt herself sober up and refreshed her makeup.

The phone in her bag rang, and she smiled when she saw the name on the screen. “Hello.”

“It’s me.” Charles‘ clear, magnetic voice was heard over the phone. Noelle had been feeling a headache

“I still have half an hour,” Charles said. However, he was met with a few quizzical looks, Charles raised an eyebrow and smiled. “My wife wants me home. You single people wouldn’t understand it.”

“What do you mean, Charles?”

Noelle heard a deep, stern voice that sounded unhappy. She then heard Sean saying, “Charles, don’t think you’re so great just because you’re married. You’re being extremely shameless right here.”

This made Noelle burst out laughing. There was a happy twinkle in Charles‘ deep eyes as he said, “Am I being shameless? Well, I can be even more shameless than this!” He immediately said, “I’ll call you again later, Nelly!”

“Alright!” Noelle laughed as she shook her head. “I’ll see you later!” The lights in the bathroom suddenly blinked, and she heard something exploding. The bathroom then descended into darkness.
