Unwanted Girl Spoiled

Chapter 246 Chapter 246 Not even a little bit.

Noelles answer cswift and sure without a trace of hesitation.

Nicolas couldnt help but chuckle softly.

He leaned down and pressed a light kiss to her smooth, radiant forehead, his voice teasing as he murmured. Really not even a little scared? My face minstve looked pretty terrifying just now.

Why were you staring atso hard then, hmm? But Noelle, ever the logical little genius, tilted her head and countered, Well, if I were actually scared, wouldnt I not be able to look at your Why would I keep staring if I was frightened Could it be, Nicolas mused with a faux serious tone, that maybe youre just not quite normal? Huh? Im not normal!! Noelle puffed up immediately, her cheeks flushing with indignation.

Seeing her turn into a little angry pufferfish.

Nicolas couldnt help himself he kissed her again, this ton the cheek, and laughed ..

Okay, okay I was joking, baby.

Dont take it seriously.

I was staring at you she said, because I thought that side of you was kind of fascinating Fascinating Nicolas raised an eyebrow.

Noelle nodded seriously Youre always so gentle and kind with me.

Thats the side of you I know best.

But I also know thats not all of you.

And I want to know all of you- every part.

The good and the bad.

So when I got to see this side of you for once.

honestly, I was really happy.

It feels like I understand you just a little more now.

Her words were simple, but they hit hins straight in the heart.

Nicolas had been weighed down by the darkness stirred up from thinking about his mother. But now, hearing Noelle speak so honestly, that heaviness seemed to lift.

He pulled her into a tighter embrace, burying his face in the crook of her neck.

His shoulders trembled slightly as he laughed low and quiet.

Baby, where did you learn to say stuff like that? Who taught you such sweet lines! Tellthe truth, be teased softly against her skin.

Noelle blinked.

No one taught me, she said, utterly serious.

Thats just really how I feel Nicolas was quiet for a beat.

Then he lifted his head, looking at her with a s a soft smile tugging at his lips.

I can see it, he said gently.

You really do loveEven among couples whod been together for years, it was rare to find someone who could say and mean that they accept everything about their partner.

The light and the dark.

Strengths and flaws But Noelle, sweet, straightforward Noelle, who still didnt fully understand the complexities of love, had said it so naturally.

How could be not be moved He used to think he could endure anything alone.

That he didnt need anyone.

But now he couldnt imagine life without her.

If she were ever taken from him he wart sure hed survive it, Meanwhile, just as Nicolas husl promised he let the Sawyer family enjoy their brief moment of triumph .

At the Sawyer estate, the entire family had gathered to celebrate the return of the 30 % stake in the Sawyer Group .

Braiden declared, we focus on expanding the group.

Marshall and Luciano echoed in unison.

Marissa, glowing with satisfaction, leaned in toward her husband.

Braiden, now that weve got the shares, what about ... that plan ? She was, of course, referring to the plan to eliminate Nicolas .

Theyd given him a fortune just to get the shares back.

And she wasnt about to let him enjoy a cent of it, Braiden grinned slyly and gave her a wink Dont worry, Marissa.

I know how much you hate that bastard.

I promise, you wont have to see his face much longer Good.

Let him rot with that dead mother of his, she spat coldly.

Just as the Sawyers were basking in their imagined victory, Marshalls phone rang.

He glanced at the screen his assistant He picked up Moments later, Marshall shot up p from his seat, his expression tightening, color draining from his face.

What did you say?! Whats going on? Braiden frowned.

Everyone turned to look at Marshall, puzzled by his reaction.

Marshall didnt answer.

He unlocked his phone and opened Twitter.

The top pinned post was all it took his face darkened as he hissed, Damn it No.
