Charles walked in just then and saw Noelle's concerned expression. He smiled and, seeing the papers in her hand, said, "Go ahead and askanything!" "You're planning to sign Winter? I mean, did you invest in a movie company or something?" Noelle felt a bit confused. She thought she knew Charles pretty well after all this time.
Charles took the papers from her and gently squeezed her wrist. "Did you cto telldinner's ready?" Noelle nodded and looked at him again. "It's okay if you don't want to talk about it." Charles chuckled and playfully tousled Noelle's hair until it was all messy. Noelle, who was already a little upset, did not know what to say and pushed his hand away. "Stop messing up my hair!" "You know, you're usually so easygoing. I never knew you had a rebellious streak!" Charles said with a teasing smile.
Feeling grumpy, Noelle missed his teasing tone. "Rebellious? You're the rebellious one. You're not making any sense right now!" Holding Noelle's hand, Charles led her downstairs. "I invested in the film company a few years back, but I've let Ronald and his team handle it so far," he explained, then quickly added, "Winter asked Xavier to get my help!" "So you said yes?" Noelle was confused about why Charles would agree. "You know there's tension betweenand Winter..." "Just trust me," Charles reassured her, giving her hand a gentle squeeze. “Let's have dinner first. I've got a surprise for you later!" Charles seemed cheerful as they reached the dining room, He raised an eyebrow at the feast on the table. "I thought I asked for something simple!" Noelle bit her lip. "I'm not silly, you know. You're behind Winter's situation, aren't you?" Charles stopped mid-motion as he was pulling out a chair, then let out a soft chuckle. He had always known Noelle was sharp, so he had not even tried to keep the secret from her. Seeing that she had figured things out, he nodded. "I had to step in, didn't I? You're my wife. I can't just watch someone push you around. That's not how I do things!" Noelle understood why Charles was helping Winter now. However, she was still pretty shocked. "From what I know about Xavier, he's too proud and snooty to ask for your help. It's pretty clear he's not your biggest fan!" Charles lifted an eyebrow. "You're right." Xavier was around his age, but their lives were worlds apart.

Joseph had once told Xavier to hang out with him more, but Charles had sized him up and figured he was not going to make it big.
"But don't forget, money and power can make a person drop everything!" Xavier was just that type of guy. The shares Winter had were enough to make him swallow his pride. Plus, Joseph had big dreams!"
Noelle bit her lip and nodded. "I get it. Go ahead with your plan. !'[support you +25 BONUS X
