The Cherished Wife novel Chapter 897

Sean let out a chuckle. "You're quite considerate of others," he said as he walked toward his office, with Noelle following behind.

"Of course. Peter is Charlie's good friend, and Tania is Charlie's cousin. Naturally, I hope this all ends well. Besides, Brandon…"

"What about Brandon?" Sean, who had only met the child briefly, already found him quite likable. "He looks a lot like Peter, doesn't he?"

"You think so too?" Noelle's eyes brightened. "Look, I secretly recorded this video earlier when they weren't paying attention."

She handed her phone to Sean, who watched the video and nodded in approval. "Impressive work, Noelle!"

"But don't worry. Even if Tania leaves now, Peter has ways to bring her back. He has always been persistent when it comes to Tania."

Sean had witnessed their relationship back in the day and knew Peter was not someone who gave up easily.

"Speaking of Aunt Nancy's health, Tania plans to undergo some tests soon. Then, they'll schedule the surgery. We've discussed it with Dr. Lynch, and everyone agrees it's the right course of action."

"Alright, let's proceed. Anything that helps Aunt Nancy is worth doing."

As Noelle was about to leave, Sean suddenly asked, "Tania's staying at Phoenix Tree Residence now, right?"

Noelle paused, surprised by the question. She nodded. "Yes, she's there with Brandon. Why?"

Sean rubbed his chin, a harmless smile spreading across his face. However, Noelle immediately felt something was off, especially with that smile—it was a little too mischievous.

Noelle had known Sean long enough to recognize that whenever he smiled like that, he was definitely up to something. "Mr. Smith, what are you planning?"

"Oh, nothing!" Sean's eyes gleamed with a playful light. "Noelle, it's been ages since we had dinner together, hasn't it? The weather is perfect for it. How about we have a barbecue at your place tonight?"

"Charlie, were you busy just now?"

"Yes, I just got out of a meeting." Charles glanced at Ronald and Maggie, who quickly excused themselves. Once they were gone, Charles found a quiet spot. "What's up?"

"Mr. Smith suggested we have a barbecue at Phoenix Tree Residence tonight. Are you free?" Noelle asked, throwing a playful eye-roll in Sean's direction before adding, "Peter will be there too."

Charles raised an eyebrow. "Sounds good."

"Alright, since I don't have much to do right now, I'll go to the grocery store to buy some ingredients. Tania and Peter are with Aunt Nancy."

"Mm, take Sean with you. I don't want you going alone."

"There's nothing to worry about. Mr. Smith is busy right now anyway. I can handle it on my own!"
