Wife 120 Chapter 120 "Just keep them!" Charles looked at Noelle. "You shouldn't feel bad about it!" "You're not even a little surprised? Twenty percent is a lot. That's more than what Winter got!" Noelle had her own thoughts about it. She had argued with her parents and Winter before, but she never really wanted to cut ties completely with them. She just did not want to fight with Winter anymore. However, Samuel had suddenly given her a big chunk of the company, and that meant things were going to get shaky.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNoelle was not one to fuss over shares. Actually, the way the Shaw family had treated her made her stop caring about such superficial things.
"You do realize that with these shares, the Shaw family could be in for sbig changes, right?" Charles chuckled and tapped his fingers on the steering wheel. "It's not as bad as you think. Sir Shaw must have his reasons for doing this. It's just you and Winter, his two granddaughters, and Joshua's overseas, If the company went to someone else, all of your grandpa's hard work would be wasted. He's just being careful by giving you the shares now." "How do you know all this?" Noelle looked up, shocked, staring at Charles. This was her family's private business. Outsiders were not supposed to know the details, but Charles seemed clued in. "How do you know about Joshua and what my grandpa is thinking?" Charles just smiled a little and said, "It's not that tough to figure out! Anyway, are you hungry?" That's when Noelle remembered she had not eaten anything since she left work. She nodded. "Have you eaten yet?" Charles gave a soft laugh. "I haven't eaten yet either. Where do you want to go?" "Hmm." Noelle paused to think. "How about we eat out today?" "Sure. It's getting late anyway. We could go back and eat, but it might be a rush with all the grocery shopping and cooking," Charles said, not really minding either way.
"Let's eat out, then. Is spicy barbecue okay?" Noelle asked a bit nervously. She was not quite sure what kinds of food Charles liked, and she was a big fan of spicy dishes.
"Sounds good to me!" Charles agreed with a smile. "Where do you have in mind? Just tellwhere it is!" Noelle mentioned a restaurant she used to go to a lot. Charles did not know the way, so Noelle scooted closer to type it into the navigation. "It's not too far, actually. It's near Vista University. Do you know the shopping mall behind the university?" Charles raised an eyebrow and nodded. "Looks like you had a lot of fun when you were a student!" He was familiar with the mall since it was owned by the Hoffman family.

The prices were good too. But I haven't been here much since graduating." She sounded cheerful as she talked about it, but then she looked a little sad. "It's just Rowena and Teresa, my two best friends. Maybe I can introduce you to them sometime?" 1/2 +15 BONUS
"That'd be great!” Charles said with a nod. It was not often that Noelle was so easy to get along with. Whenever y you're ready!" He was waiting for the day she would really let him into her heart.
Noelle sighed quietly to herself. She did not think Charles was like what e everyone else described. "
Charles drove smoothly, and in about half an hour, they pulled up to the shopping center near Vistnear University. The near Shop Noelle had talked about had been around for a long time, ever since the mall first opened its doors. X
