Introduced someone to Noelle?
Xavier felt a surge of anger but knew he could not say anything.
“Xavier, should we go say hello?” Winter noticed Xavier’s frustration but did not care. She wanted Xavier to face reality. He and Noelle could never be together. He would always belong to her.
Winter was even pleased with the idea of introducing such an outstanding man to Noelle as long as it meant getting Noelle out of the picture.
“No need,” Xavier replied, turning his head away. “There are still plenty of guests to greet. Let’s go talk to the others.”
As the wedding banquet came to an end, the guests began to disperse.
Since Jade was using the pretense of arranging a match for Noelle, she insisted that Noelle spend some time with Sean before he left.
Noelle, finding it hard to refuse, texted Charles, asking if he could take Rowena and Teresa home.
Just as Noelle was about to get into Sean’s car, someone stopped her. It was Yevgen, the person who had saved her before and who had been watching her throughout the banquet.
Yevgen had tried several times to approach Noelle but had not found the right moment. As the banquet was coming to an end and Noelle was about to leave, Yevgen seized the opportunity to catch up with her.
Although they were classmates, they had not seen each other in a long time. Aside from their unexpected encounter at the class reunion, Yevgen had not found any way to contact Noelle or spend time alone with

“Noelle, wait!” Yevgen called out when he saw Noelle about to get into Sean’s car.
He quickly ran over. “Noelle!”
Sean had opened the car door and was courteously gesturing for Noelle to get in when they both paused. They heard Yevgen’s voice.
Noelle turned slightly, noticing Yevgen approaching. A flicker of impatience crossed her eyes, but she still- asked, “What can I do for you, Yevgen?”
Yevgen glanced at Noelle, then at Sean. “Noelle, could we talk?”
Sean raised an eyebrow but made no move.
Yevgen hesitated and then asked, “Could I trouble this gentleman to leave us for a moment? Or perhaps go ahead? I need to speak with Noelle in private, and I can take her home afterward.”
Noelle did not respond, so Sean stayed put, leaning casually against the car door. His posture seemed relaxed, but his eyes held a barely perceptible, cold amusement.
He smirked slightly, closed the car door, and continued leaning against it as he exuded an air of ease.
Seeing Sean’s nonchalant attitude, Yevgen felt a surge of frustration but turned back to Noelle. “Noelle…”

“Yevgen, if you have something to say, just say it. Mr. Smith isn’t an outsider.”
“But I…”
“If there’s nothing else, I need to head home. It’s getting late,” Noelle said, her tone calm but firm. She moved to open the car door, but Yevgen was quicker, grabbing her hand before she could.
Noelle instinctively pulled her hand away and took a step back. “Yevgen, what on earth do you want?”
Yevgen’s heart sank at her reaction. He opened his mouth, hesitating. “Noelle, I like you. You probably already know that. At the class reunion, I didn’t get a chance to say it because you were hurt, but today, I want to tell you that I like you. I’ve liked you for a long time. Will you be my girlfriend?“
