The Cherished Wife

Chapter 334



"Yes, sir." Eli nodded. "It's in two days."

Eli seemed a bit unwilling, adding, "Sir, doesn't Mr. Julian realize that Xavier and his father Joseph have always coveted our family's shares? What could he be thinking to let Ms. Winter marry Xavier? Xavier was Ms. Noelle's boyfriend before, and yet she still..."

"Let it go, Eli," Samuel shook his head. "These are matters beyond our control. You know that son of mine has always resented me for adopting Joshua."

When he mentioned Joshua, Samuel's face showed rare melancholy. "That child... He's been through a lot."

"Don't say that, sir. Mr. Joshua understands your difficulties. He left because he knew it'd make things easier for you. He's grateful for your kindness, so you don't need to worry."

"Yes, but it has been many years." Samuel, now old, rarely showed such a despondent look.

Eli, who had been with him for many years, understood his thoughts completely. "If you miss Mr. Joshua, you could call him back."

"Forget it. They already have opinions about me being good to Noelle. If Josh came back, it would cause an uproar." Samuel wished for Joshua's return, but some things were not that simple. "At least Noelle has Charles now, which is some comfort to me."

When Eli stopped the car at Haven Mansion, Ronald also pulled over and quickly got out of his car. "Sir Shaw, shall I help you carry these things in?"

"Charles is thoughtful," Samuel said,

Samuel was most pleased with the painting, which suited his taste perfectly. "No need, I'll have Eli bring them in. If you show up at the Shaws, it might cause unnecessary trouble." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

Though old, Samuel saw things clearly.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Charles had made it clear today. By marrying Noelle, he would protect her. However, Noelle did not seem ready to make their marriage public. Considering this, Samuel understood the delicate situation.

Julian and Jade had been eager to connect their family with Joseph precisely because Joseph had some ties with Charles.

They had crafted their plans carefully. Since Noelle was not close to them, they would not gain much even if she married Xavier. Hence, they let Winter take Noelle's place.

They had not anticipated that Noelle would marry Charles. If they found out, they would undoubtedly try everything to latch onto Charles.

Ronald understood this and nodded, saying, "Sir Shaw, we ask for your understanding. Mr. Hoffman is truly devoted to Mrs. Hoffman, and as his subordinate, I can see it clearly.
