Chapter Wife 131

Chapter 131 Noelle sneered as she watched them collaborate, directly distorting the facts and confusing right from wrong. You guys are good friends.”

“Of course, we’re good friends. It’s because we are good friends that we’re standing up for Winter.You’re Winter’s sister, and we can’t do anything to you, but one shouldn’t be too ungrateful.

“Don’t forget that Winter saved you back then. Without her, you wouldn’t be where you are now.And now, you want to steal Winter’s boyfriend!”

Noelle’s lips trembled slightly. “Enough. You don’t need to keep repeating this. You know the truthvery well. You also know very well who stole whose boyfriend. Do you want to disgrace me bydistorting the facts in front of everyone?”

Noelle clenched her fists, taking a deep breath. Just because I’ve been backing down doesn’t meanI don’t have a temper. Winter, I will say this one last time. From now on, you go your way, and I willgo mine. We have nothing to do with each other.”

Noelle’s peripheral vision caught a glimpse of a familiar figure, causing her to pause slightly. Shequickly spoke up. “As for Xavier, since you like him so much, you should cherish him. My biggesttrait is that I never go back to what I left behind.

“He’s nothing more than a pair of worn–out shoes. If you like him so much, why would I stop youfrom having him?”

“You…” Winter’s face turned pale. “Noelle, how can you say that? How does slandering me benefityou?”

Annie said impatiently, “Why bother talking to her so much? Can’t you see that attitude of hers? Youtreat her like a sister, but she may not see you as one!”

Annie gritted her teeth and glared at Noelle.

Noelle chuckled lightly. “Your friend is right. From the moment you stole my boyfriend, I reallyhaven’t considered you my sister. So, Winter, it’s best to pretend not to know me when you seeme.”

“Just look at her! Winter, I’ve told you not to be so weak, or one day, someone will walk all overyou!”

“Annie, don’t say that. Noelle is still my only sister.”

Noelle curled her lips, watching Winter and Annie echo each other while Suzy remained silent. Hereyes were fixed on Noelle the whole time.

To be precise, her eyes were on the figure behind Noelle. Noelle squinted slightly and turned to lookbehind her. She was somewhat surprised to see Charles standing there.

+15 BONUS A flash of panic crossed Noelle’s eyes, and just as she was about to speak, Winter stepped.forward. “Mr. Hoffman? Hello, Mr. Hoffman. Why are you here?”

Noelle furrowed her brows and chose to remain silent after seeing Charles‘ signaling look. Shestood aside without saying a word.

“And you are?” Charles looked at Winter suspiciously. “Do we know each other?”

Winter was stunned, biting her lip and looking a bit aggrieved. “Mr. Hoffman, don’t you remember?I’m Winter Shaw, Xavier’s fiancée. You visited the Shaw family for my grandfather’s birthday beforethis and gave him a chess set. Do you remember?”

“Oh.” Charles suddenly realized and nodded. “I vaguely remember.”

He curled his lips upon seeing Winter’s delighted expression and then asked, “And who are you?”
