The Cherished Wife (Noelle and Charles)
Chapter 635

"You should be focusing on how to present yourself well right now. Don't forget, your performance is coming up, and this could be your shot at that endorsement. Didn't you see how well-prepared Brielle is today?" Suzy continued to speak as she handed Winter a glass of water, "If you can't endure minor issues, you'll ruin your bigger plans. You're smart enough to understand that, Winter."

Hearing Suzy's words, Winter finally suppressed her anger. "Alright."

...

Backstage, Janet grew increasingly restless. She could not stop thinking about the things that had unfolded. However, with the two bodyguards that Charles had assigned watching her every move, she could not go anywhere. Clarisse, who was with her, also noticed Janet's escalating agitation and felt at a loss.

Janet had many good qualities, but her temperament was peculiar just like her mother's-which always troubled Clarisse.

She originally thought that raising Janet by her side would help change her nature, but she forgot that such a personality was not shaped by circumstances; it was inherent, something she was born with. Therefore, it was impossible to change it. Janet's obsession had reached a dangerous level, especially regarding Charles. This was one of the reasons why the Hoffman family, including Mateo and Maxwell, had never agreed to a marriage between Charles and Janet. "Janet, sit down. Stop pacing. You're making me dizzy." Clarisse waved her over. "Come here."

"Aunt Clarrise." Janet stamped her foot in frustration. "What should we do? She... Do you think Charles is doing this on purpose? How could he not know that Noelle looks exactly like Kelly? And..."

Janet bit her lip. "And Charles keeps bringing Noelle into his office. His office!"

"What did you just say?" Clarisse grabbed Janet's hand in shock, staring at her in disbelief. "You're saying Charlie already knows about Noelle? And that Noelle looks like Kelly?"

"What do you think?!" Janet seethed with anger. She could not believe that Noelle resembled Kelly so closely. She had always found it odd that Charles kept calling Noelle into his office.

Although she had not seen Noelle

before this, she would feel a nagging familiarity every time she saw Noelle's Silhouette. Now, she understood why. It was because Noelle looked just like Kelly. "Aunt Clarrise, do you think Charles

might..."

"It's impossible. Even if she looks like Kelly, they aren't the same person. Don't forget how Kelly left Charlie and Brookville all those years ago.

"What do you think Charlie despises

most in his life? If not, why wouldn't he forgive me after all these years? He lost all feelings for Kelly long ago, so it's even more impossible for him to have feelings for Noelle

"But Aunt Clarrise, I don't like Noelle. I really don't like her." Janet felt uneasy just thinking about Noelle sharing the same face as Kelly. "Aunt Clarrise, you have to replace a way to get rid of her."

"I'll figure something out. No matter what, we can't keep this woman around!"
