The Cherished Wife

"Let me go!" Noelle squirmed, feeling sick as she looked at Xavier. She swung her hand and slapped him hard across the face. "Snap out of it, Xavier! Look at me I'm Noelle, not Winter. If you've lost your mind, go chase after Winter."

"Noelle, I made a mistake. You know you're the one I love. With Winter... I just lost control. She lured me in, Noelle." Xavier suddenly wrapped his arms around Noelle. No matter how much she wriggled and squirmed, he would not let go.

Xavier's grip was so tight that Noelle could barely catch her breath. She felt gross all over, especially hearing his words. "Let me go, Xavier! If you don't, I'm going to scream for help."

"Go ahead and scream. I'll just tell everyone you like me and that we're a couple. Noelle, I know you're mad about Winter, but you've got to understand that she has shares in City Ring Corp. I had no choice." He gripped Noelle's arms, continuing, "After I marry Winter and get the shares, I'll divorce her. Then, it'll be just you and me."

"Let go!" Noelle summoned all her strength and kicked Xavier right in the leg. His face twisted in pain as he clutched the spot where she had hit him.

Noelle was completely let down by Xavier. "Xavier, I can't believe you're this kind of person. You're just gross! You said you loved Winter, so I put up with you two getting together because she's my sister.

"Since you're with her now, you should be good to her instead of bothering me. You've made your choice, so stop doing things that make me sick."

Noelle's eyes showed nothing but disgust. Any feelings she might have had for Xavier before were totally wiped out because of the way he was acting now.

Xavier, seeing how Noelle was so

sure about her feelings, was in pain.

At the same time, he looked really mad. "Make you sick? Are you saying you don't love me anymore? Noelle, I was your first crush Can you just forget that?"

Noelle snapped back, "Forget what? Who do you think you are? You think I'd stay with you after what you've done?

"Yeah, I was dumb enough to like someone like you once. But I don't like you one bit now. Please just stay away from me from now onContent held by NôvelDrama.Org.

because I don't even want to see your face."

Noelle hit the elevator button fast, her eyes glued to the changing numbers. She could not stand being in the same space as Xavier for even a moment longer.

Xavier took a deep breath, feeling

the pain begin to fade. As the

elevator doors opened, he reached out and grabbed Noelle's hand. "You don't love me anymore? Have you fallen for some other wild guy?"
