Wife 64
Noelle started packing up her stuff. It was just a rental, but she had umted a ton of things
over time. If she was serious about this move, waiting until the third day to start packing would have
been foolish. Decision made, Noelle got down to business, tossing out the junk and keeping what
mattered. It was a full day’s work.
Meanwhile, Xavier was totally blindsided. He could not belleve Noelle had actually called the cops
on him, and that they had just scoffed at his name, totally unimpressed. Dropping the Hoffman
family name did not work either. The cops had said, “Even if Mr. Hoffman himself showed up, we’d
still y it by the
book!”
Little did Xavier know that Mr. Hoffman was the reason the cops were there in the first ce. There
was no way they were going to let him off easy.
Xavier had had no other option but to ring up Winter. The moment Winter caught wind that Xavier
was with the police, she dashed there without a second thought. Xavier had just wrapped up his
statement when Winter came up to him, her hands sping his, “What’s going on? Why are you
here? They’re saying you caused a ruckus! Xavier, tell me what happened.”
Xavier was starting to lose his cool with all the questions. However, after one look at Winter’s
anxious face, he swallowed his annoyance. “It’s about Noelle.”
“Noelle?” Winter’s brow had creased in frustration. Not her again, she thought. Outwardly, she
looked concerned and even a bit guilty. “I’m so sorry, Xavier. This is all on me. Maybe we should
just forget the whole wedding thing. I’ll step aside for Noelle, then maybe she’ll stop being mad at
us.” N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.
“Are you kidding me? What do you think I am, a baseball card to be traded? I’m a person, Winter.
And haven’t you figured out yet how I feel about Noelle? She’s like a sister to me, nothing more.
You’re the one I’m crazy about!”
Xavier wrapped his arms around Winter, giving her aforting pat, “Promise me you won’t talk
like that again, okay?”
Hearing that, Winter’s lips had twisted into a smug smile. Despite this, she could not help asking.
“What about Noelle, though? She’s got it all wrong about us. I never wanted to hurt her, not once.”
“We’ll deal with thatter. Noelle’s not exactly in a listening mood right now. I was worried sick about
her yesterday, thinking something bad might have happened to her. I went to check on her today,
and ended up at the police because of her.”
“Wait, you’re saying Noelle is the one who tipped off the cops?” Winter’s eyes widened in disbelief,
shaking her head. “That can’t be right. Noelle isn’t like that. She’s always been into you, hasn’t
she?”
“Into me?” Xavier let out a bitterugh. “She’s not into me. Today, I caught her stepping out of some
shy sports car. One nce and you could tell the guy who owns it is loaded. Noelle’s always
ying the victim, saying we’ve done her wrong. It’s all just a cover. She’s been sneaking around
with some other dude for ages.”
Winter’s Jaw–dropped, a flicker of confusion passing through her gaze. Deep down, a fierce
resentment boiled. She had always believed that Noelle’s heart belonged to Xavier, which was why
she had orchestrated Noelle’s departure from Brookville. Over the past year, she had made sure to
put herself in Xavier’s line of sight at every turn, hoping he would notice her and eventually fall for
her.

Winter had every reason’to be confident. She wa
a master at making herself shine, especially with her star on the rise in showbiz. With her legion of
admirers, how could Xavier resist her charms and go for Noelle, the in Jane?
Her instincts had been right. Xavier had fallen for her pursuing her with a fiery passion. It was not
long before they became an item, and Xavier was so smitten that he ditched Noelle to pop the
question to
Winter.
