Wife 131


    Noelle sneered as she watched them coborate, 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 truth


    very well. You also know very well who stole whose boyfriend. Do you want to disgrace me by


    distorting the facts in front of everyone?”


    Noelle clenched her fists, taking a deep breath. Just because I’ve been backing down doesn’t mean


    I don’t have a temper. Winter, I will say this onest time. From now on, you go your way, and I will


    go 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. She


    quickly spoke up. “As for Xavier, since you like him so much, you should cherish him. My biggest


    trait 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 you


    from having him?”


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


    you?”


    Annie said impatiently, “Why bother talking to her so much? Can’t you see that attitude of hers? You


    treat her like a sister, but she may not see you as one!”


    Annie gritted her teeth and red at Noelle.


    Noelle chuckled lightly. “Your friend is right. From the moment you stole my boyfriend, I really


    haven’t considered you my sister. So, Winter, it’s best to pretend not to know me when you see


    me.”


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


    you!”


    “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. Her


    eyes were fixed on Noelle the whole time.

    To be precise, her eyes were on the figure behind Noelle. Noelle squinted slightly and turned to look


    behind her. She was somewhat surprised to see Charles standing there.

    A sh 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. She


    stood 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 before


    this 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?”
