Chapter 187
Not only Sean but even Rowena and Teresa noticed something different about Charles.
Noelle smiled. “Yes, I’m back.”
“Hi, Charles. Remember me? We metst night.” Rowena waved. “I’m Noelle’s friend, Rowena. And
this is Teresa.”
“Yes, hello!” Charles greeted them with a smile. Rowena’s friendly greeting put him in an
exceptionally good mood.
“Hey, hey, hey, Charles Hoffman. Is this how you treat your friends?” Sean could not stand Charles
showing favoritism right in front of him.
“Do you
have a problem with that? Why are you here this time?” Charles nced at Sean. He had not
Invited him over.
Sean pursed his lips. “Can’t I just visit you after not seeing you for a while?” Sean had seen people
burn bridges before, but not quite like this. His charming eyes, though smiling, gave off a menacing
vibe.
Charles narrowed his eyes, not bothering to respond to Sean. Instead, he walked over to relieve
Noelle of her things, taking them in his hands. “Are you tired? Go rest with your friends and watch
some TV. The food will be ready soon.”
He then turned to Rowena and Teresa, nodding slightly. “It’s my first time hosting you both. Please
forgive me for any shorings.”
“No, no, we’re the ones imposing!” Despite her brashness, Rowena understood the nuances of
social courtesy.
She and Teresa knew that if it were not for Noelle, meeting someone like Charles would be
incredibly difficult, let alone being hosted by him. “You’re too kind, Charles. Don’t worry about us.
We’ll take care of ourselves, right, Noelle?”
Rowena said with a wink, making Noelle smile helplessly.
“You go ahead and finish up. I’ll stay with them.”
“Alright.” Charles nodded and went upstairs to put things away.
The three women then sat in the living room and chatted. Finding the situation intriguing, Sean
followed Charles upstairs and leaned against the bedroom door. “Seems like you’re serious this
time.”
Charles looked up, pausing his task of sorting through Noelle’s shopping bags. He shook his head
at the sight of all the clothes she had bought. “When was I ever not serious?”
Sean’s demeanor–turned serious. “I know it’s not my ce to say this, but as your friend, I must
remind you
once you start, don’t let her down.”
Charles frowned. “I know what I’m doing,” he said, needing no further reminders.
Sean slightly twitched his lips when he heard this. “You know how hard it is for people like us to find
real feelings.”
Charles replied coolly with one hand in his pocket, “Sean, I’m not like you. I’ve always been different
from
you, and you know that.

Sean opened his mouth to argue but then closed it, raising his eyebrows with a resigned smile.
“Yes, we’re different. Anyway, since she brought her best friends here, it seems she’s epted
you.”
Charles smiled knowingly. “So why did youe over today?”
“Oh, right. This.” Sean pulled a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Charles. “We
identified the drug your wife was givenst night. It’s something from Kerlsberg. Be on guard
because Winter might just be a front. We still don’t know who’s really behind all this.”
