The Cherished Wife

“order” Xavier reached out suddenly, grabbing her arm. “Can’t we just talk? Why are you always so mad at me? Don’t you remember? Before

“Before? I’ve forgotten the past, Noelle said, pulling away with a

sarcastic tone. “Remember who you are, Mr. Harris. We’re just brother–in daw and sister–in–law now. I’ll handle Frotconn on my own. You don’t need to worry about it.”

“Noelle,” Xavier said through clenched teeth. “I told you about Winter. I don’t love her. I…”

“It doesn’t matter to me who you love, Xavier. You chose her, so just be good to her. Stop talking to me about it.” Noelle was furious. She could not believe Xavier would be so shameless, telling her over and over that he did not love Winter.

However, back then, she came back home to see him secretly

promising himself to Winter at the Golden Oasis Hotel. What had he told her then? He had said that Winter was the one he had always loved and he had never had feelings for Noelle.

Was he really claiming did not love Winter now? “You’re on your own!”

“Noelle.” Xavier glared at Noelle’s retreating figure, full of anger. “Do you think you’ve done nothing wrong? You might be the second daughter of the Shaw family, but you’re not the favorite. You don’t even have a share in the family’s company, and you have no standing in the Shaw family. You don’t have anything. Do you really think you’ll get anywhere in life like this?”

Xavier’s hands balled into fists. “If you had the same standing in the Shaw family as Winter and had shares in City Ring Corp., then it would be us getting engaged and married today. I wouldn’t need to marry Winter. Everything was fine between us.”

“Bay, this is all my fault? Noelle looked at Xavier, her eyes wide with disbelief. He was ridiculous. “That’s the funniest thing I’ve ever heard.”

“You’ve got everything you need to be rich, as well as Frotconn behind you. I thought you were better than this, Xavier. Needing Winter’s shares to show your worth? I don’t have shares, but she does, so you pick her? I’m not mad at you, yet you’re mad at ine? Only a guy with no skills would climb the social ladder using a woman’s success. I didn’t think you were like that, but I guess I was wrong,” Noelle said with an icy stare, “Mr. Charles Hoffman is way better than you.”

“What did you just say, Noelle?” Xavier’s eyes were fiery red, “You’re comparing me to Charles? What’s so great about him? He’s nothing without his family and the Collosus Group. If you take that away, he’s just like me.”

“No, Xavier, you’re not the same. You don’t even come close to Charles,” Noelle said with a dismissive snort. “He’s got a lot more going for him than just his family and their company,”

“You know him that well?” Xavier asked, fists tight. “What are you to

him?” Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

“We’re nothing. But seeing how you compare to him, you just disappoint me,” Noelle replied, her gaze icy, “You’re supposed to be somebody, yet here you are, throwing a tantrum in front of the hospital at me. Don’t you care about your reputation?”

Noelle smirked. “You might not be famous, but your fiancee Winter sure is.” She chuckled and glanced over at a spot nearby, Sure enough, there were camera flashes pointed at her and Xavier,
