The Cherished Wife by Chweety

Chapter 628

Noelle watched Janet from the audience, appreciating her beauty from a purely aesthetic perspective.

Arya, who was seated beside her, was equally mesmerized. "I didn't expect her to be this pretty," Arya remarked.

"Yeah." Noelle nodded. She then noticed that Brian, who was sitting next to her, did not seem to be paying attention to Janet at all. Curious, she asked, "Don't you think she's beautiful, Mr. Parker?"

"Just another pretty face," Brian replied, barely glancing up. "Compared to her, I think you're much better looking." He said this while seemingly engrossed in a conversation on his phone.

Noelle could not help but smile at his compliment. "Thank you for the praise," she said. Out of the corners of her eyes, she caught a glimpse of Brian's phone screen and realized he was chatting with Teresa on WhatsApp. She was surprised.

Noticing Noelle's glance, Brian calmly placed his phone face down, cutting off her view. He smirked slightly. "Peeking isn't exactly polite, you know."

Noelle raised an eyebrow. "You're right, Mr. Parker. But... Teresa is a good woman!"
