NovelEnglishChapter 288 Chapter 288 That evening, when they returned, Noelle kept asking Charles about what had transpired between him and Sebastian.
Previously, Noelle had sensed that although her grandfather did not voice it, he was quite displeased with their decision to marry before informing him. Yet, after Charles played a gof chess with him, Sebastian seemed to change his mind and even appeared to be in a good mood.
During dinner, Sebastian ate two whole plates and kept serving Charles more food, a privilege even Noelle had not experienced.

In response, Sebastian knocked on her head, saying, “You've quickly forgotten your roots.” He remarked that she was already siding with Charles just after getting married.
However, Sebastian's tone lacked any anger, and he seemed quite relieved. Noelle could tell that her grandfather had accepted their marriage, but neither Sebastian nor Charles revealed how Charles had managed to persuade him.
After they left her grandfather's house, Noelle kept pestering Charles to explain what had happened.
While driving, Charles glanced at Noelle, who was visibly bothered by this mystery. He smiled, reached out to ruffle her hair, and said, “It wasn't much. I just assured your grandfather that I would always take good care of you and let him supervise me." "I don't believe you!" Noelle raised her chin defiantly. "Grandpa isn't that easily convinced. I don't believe that just saying that made him overlook everything." Charles chuckled. "So, you mean you want him to give us a hard time?" "That's not what I meant..." Noelle bit her lip. "I just think Grandpa wouldn't give in so easily." In truth, Noelle was scared. She knew her grandfather would not make things difficult for Charles, but she was still worried. Their relationship was not stable yet.
Noelle had not wanted to reveal her marriage to both her grandfathers so soon because she did not want them to worry. Besides, she lacked confidence in herself.
After experiencing a failed relationship, Noelle had not planned to enter another one so quickly. Charles was an unexpected development, and their marriage had a purpose behind it, which was not entirely pure. She had her own reasons for marrying Charles.
"Alright now. Sthings are resolved, so there's no need to dwell on them," Charles said, ruffling Noelle's hair again. "Okay?" 1 bought movie tickets. We have about an hour," Charles said, surprising Noelle.

Charles nodded. "Yes. Ronald mentioned that a few new foreign blockbusters are showing. Do you want to watch one?"
"Sure!" Noelle nodded, feeling happy. "There's nothing much to do if we go. hthis early anyway." She also liked watching foreign films. When she was with Xavier, he always used work as an excuse to avoid outings, let alone watching movies.
Even when they did go out, if Noelle suggested an art film, Xavier would dismiss it as pretentious and boring. when she proposed watching action movies, Xavier would cup with another excuse, saying they were too violent for a woman and that she would not understand them. X
