The Cherished Wife (Noelle and Charles)
Chapter 645

"So, my wifey is jealous, after all," Charles said, feeling quite pleased.

"Don't worry, dear. It's rare to see you jealous like this. I'll make sure this matter is handled perfectly and give you a proper explanation!"

As Charles spoke, he noticed a car following closely behind him. No matter how fast he drove, the car stayed on his tail, seemingly unbothered about being detected.

Charles sped up, and the car behind matched his pace.

Charles squinted as he listened to Noelle's laughter on the other end of the call. He narrowed his eyes further and said, "Nelly, don't follow me. Turn at the next intersection and head toward Wenford Road." "Why?" Noelle asked, sensing something was wrong but unsure what it was exactly. She looked ahead, but Charles' car was already out of her sight.

"Charlie, where are you? What's going on? Answer me!" Noelle shouted, panic creeping into her voice. "Charlie!"

"I'm fine, Nelly. Please just do as I say. Turn at the next intersection and call Steven when you reach Wenford Road," Charles instructed before abruptly hanging up.

He glanced in his rearview mirror. Seeing the pursuing car, he floored the accelerator. The car behind accelerated too, the driver clearly skilled enough to keep up with Charles' maneuvers.

Charles furrowed his brows together and quickly dialed Peter's number. "Peter, track my location immediately. I've got a car tailing me. Tell Lareal to hack into the street cameras and identify who's following me!"

"Got it!" Peter responded swiftly. He set aside his phone to open his computer. He ordered Lareal to hack into the surveillance cameras and then sent the data to Charles. "They're from Kerlsberg. Charlie, who did you piss off?" Peter sounded more serious than ever. "Weren't you at Collosus' year-end banquet today? So, you-"

Charles frowned. "Can someone get to me in time?"

"They won't make it!" Peter replied while opening a satellite positioning system on his computer to locate the pursuers. "There are three people in the car, two men and one woman. They're armed. Can you handle it?"

"I'll have to, won't I? Unless you want to come do it?" Charles retorted coldly. "Find me a spot nearby where I can take them on."

"Five hundred yards ahead, take the next turn, then a right onto the one-way road leading to the highway There's a stretch of

can confront them," Peter advised. He then paused briefly. "And your Wife?"

"I told her to go replace Steven," Charles said with his lips pressed into a thin line, his expression grave and his eyes dark. "If you and Sean can get here fast enough, I'll wait for you!"

Swr

Charles swiftly made a sharp turn and headed in the direction Peter suggested.

Inside the car following him, the driver looked puzzled. "Boss, this isn't the road to Phoenix Tree Residence."

"Keep following," the man next to him ordered.

"But we have people waiting in ambush on the road to Phoenix Tree Residence-"

"Shut up and keep up!" The man in the front passenger seat glared at the driver. "Charles really does have some skills, but no matter what, he's not making it out alive."
