"Okay."Seeing that, Ronald breathed a sigh of relief. "Well, I'll be off then, Mr. Hoffman."Once Ronald was gone, Noelle spun around and gave Charles a stern look. "Why don't you go to work? You're always just hanging around the house, getting in the way!" Noelle noticed that Charles had changed a lot since Ice and Glitter came into their lives.He used to be so passionate about his job, often bringing work home and staying up late in the study. However, then? He was always cuddling with Glitter, eating, napping, and not doing much else.Ronald was his assistant, after all. However, what about then? That look of disdain he had just given him.Charles squinted and raised an eyebrow. "Are you tired of me, Noelle? Don't want me around?"Noelle pressed her hand to her forehead. "That's not what I'm saying. I'm trying to have a serious talk with you, you should know...""I know, you're jealous!" Charles cut her off, stood up with Glitter in his arms, walked over to Noelle, and wrap

"Look at this, look at this, now you're mad at me!" Maxwell started to make a scene. Charles held his head, feeling a splitting headache, "Noelle and the kids are asleep, do you want to wake them up?"Hearing that, Maxwell immediately quieted down, "You little scamp, why didn't you say so sooner? If you wake Ice and Glitter, I'll tan your hide!"Maxwell pretended to swing at someone in the air while Charles gave him an annoyed glance and then asked the servants to bring Maxwell's bags inside.Then Maxwell started ordering the servants around to get his room just right. After a lot of commotion, he finally settled down and asked for some coffee.Charles, nursing a headache, asked Maxwell, "What brings you here?" "Hmph, didn't you hear? Your dad and Uncle Henry don't want me anymore. So what's it going to be? Are you going to start looking down on me too?""No way!" Charles thought Maxwell was really getting too cranky with age. "This isn't like the old family home. There's no one

Charles gently tousled Noelle's hair. "Weren't you just saying how tired you were? What happened? Not sleepy now?" He teased her as she acted all wiggly and giggly like a little kid.Noelle blinked her big eyes. "Nope, I just want to hug you!"Charles smiled softly. "Okay then!" He closed his eyes. "Time to sleep!""Alright!" Noelle closed her eyes, too.When she woke up, Charles was gone. Noelle looked around, got out of bed, and after getting ready, she went to check Ice and Glitter's room, but they were not there.She went downstairs and found Maxwell holding Ice and Glitter, playing together with a caregiver nearby.Noelle was surprised. "Grandpa, when did you get here?""Ah, Noelle, you're up?" Maxwell smiled warmly and waved her over. "Come sit with me!""Where's Charles, Grandpa?" Noelle asked since she had not seen Charles since she woke up."Oh, he just said he had some stuff to take care of and went out," Maxwell said, not too worried. "I haven't seen the kids for a

Charles flashed a sly smile. "You're going to be the best man.""The best man?" Sean eyed Charles. "And who's the maid of honor?"As expected, this guy!Charles eyed Sean back. "What's in it for me?"Sean clenched his teeth. "Charles, must you always make deals? I'm your wife's brother, and someday I'll be your brother-in-law!""Oh?" Charles rubbed his chin. "Even brothers should settle up clearly!" Charles was not one to be easily convinced. "It's decided."Charles then glanced at Peter. "Mr. Fischer should be okay, and then..."That was his and Noelle's wedding, a once-in-a-lifetime affair, and Charles was set on making it unforgettable for Noelle. So, instead of Sean's usual drinking and grumbling, it turned into Charles planning the perfect wedding for Noelle.Sean watched Charles show off his love life with such intensity that he almost wanted to throttle him.Later, Yves showed up, worn out from work, but Charles had summoned him with just a phone call.The bartender at

The bridesmaid lineup was set: Kelly, Liliana, Linda, and Eloise. For the groomsmen, there were Yves, Sean, and Steven. They needed one more, and just when everyone was scratching their heads, Simon showed up. Just like that, the final groomsman spot was filled.The wedding was a whirlwind of activity, but it was also rewarding. Even though Noelle and Charles did not have to lift a finger, they were still super busy.Every day, Noelle worked hard to get fit for the big day. She wanted to look her best when she got married. However, all that work meant she was not getting much sleep.Charles could see how hard she was pushing herself, and it hurt him to see her like that. He knew Noelle was tough and always set high standards for herself.A few days before tying the knot, Noelle hung out with Rowena and Teresa again. She had wanted them to be bridesmaids, but they just wanted to watch their friend walk down the aisle. They would not have it any other way.So, the trio ended up at a
