The Cherished Wife (Noelle and Charles) -
Chapter 531
"Hmm?" Charles smiled faintly. "Extraordinary?"
"Yeah, are you not? Just look at you. Not only are you great at work, but you're also amazing at racing-practically at a professional level. Tell me, how is it that we're both humans, yet you're so much better than me?" Noelle spoke with a hint of envy. Charles shook his head with a chuckle. "Everyone excels in different fields. You're amazing too."
Setting his teacup down, Charles picked up a few sheets of paper, marking and circling diagrams before handing them to Noelle. "You need to watch out for these areas. The rest looks good. Has Brian already stepped back to let you handle this?" "How did you know?" Noelle looked up in surprise, then chuckled. "Alright, I get it. My mentor's work wouldn't have been this bad, huh?"
"Don't underestimate yourself. You're doing well. Brian just has more experience, which naturally means he has faced more complex issues. Like these, and these." Charles pointed to the marked areas on the drafts. "He would already know how to avoid them." Noelle nodded in understanding. "I was actually planning to show this to my mentor for feedback first, but he's not feeling well lately, and he said I could go directly to you."
"He's got it all figured out," Charles said with a shake of his head. "Alright, make these adjustments, and there shouldn't be any more problems."
"Okay, okay!" Noelle nodded and immediately began making the revisions seriously. Charles stood beside her, observing as she worked under the warm glow of the dim light. He sipped his tea, watching Noelle with a quiet fondness.
Noelle was so focused on her work that she did not even notice when Charles left. When she was done, she realized Charles was gone.
After tidying up the documents, she stepped out of the study and saw Charles in a bathrobe that was loosely tied at the waist. He had a towel in his hand. "All done with work?"
Noelle nodded. "Why didn't you dry your hair before coming out?"
Charles grinned. "I wanted to see how your work turned out."
"You don't trust me, huh?" Noelle laughed and gently pushed Charles back into the master bedroom.
She gestured for Charles to sit down, took the towel from his hands, and began drying his hair.
The two of them remained quiet, enjoying the peaceful, tranquil moment. Noelle dried Charles' hair
until it was half-dry, then put the towel away. "The room has the heat on, so it shouldn't be too cold. It's better not to use the dryer too much. Anyway, your hair is short and dries quickly."
"I'll do whatever you say!" Charles patted the empty spot next to him. "Sit down."
Noelle then took the towel from Charles, went to the bathroom to hang it up, and came back out. However, she suddenly remembered something. "So, you never really planned to hand this project over to someone else, did you?"
Recently, several companies submitted proposals to work with Collosus Group, eager to partner with the highly esteemed company in Brookville. After Collosus Group secured the land, everyone had their eyes on this valuable opportunity,
hoping to get a piece of th
action.
Noelle had not been too involved in these operations before, but after this, she had a feeling that Charles never intended to collaborate with these other companies. Charles, however, shook his head. "Initially, I did plan to."
"What made you change your mind?" Noelle was puzzled, knowing that once Charles made a decision, he rarely changed it.
"Frotconn." Charles waved her over, pulling Noelle by the hand to sit beside him. He casually played with her fingers. "Frotconn wants to use this opportunity to solidify a connection with Collosus Group."
