Chapter 138 Charles chuckled and shook his head. He gently patted Noelle's head. "Do you think she wouldn't hold a grudge against you if you didn't do this?" Noelle sighed, reluctantly admitting the truth in Charles' words. Still, she decided to avoid Winter as much as possible in the future. "You don't understand. Winter doesn't let things go easily. She-" Charles shook his head. "It seems like she bullied you often in the past, didn't she?" Noelle gave a bitter smile. "I guess it's pretty obvious!" Moreover, she would always end up on the losing side. To avoid direct confrontations with Winter, Noelle moved out early and only returned for family gatherings to see her grandfather, Samuel.

Charles' deep eyes settled on Noelle, and he could tell from her resigned expression that she had often been at a disadvantage with Winter over the years. "She's quite something." Noelle raised an eyebrow. "I didn't expect you to compliment her!" She noticed the shoes being packed by the sales attendant, and the manager had cover as well.

"Mr. Hoffman, these shoes..." "Give them to me!" Charles frowned slightly, taking the shoes. "What about those flats from earlier?" "They're right here!" The sales attendant had anticipated this and quickly handed over the flats. "Ms. Shaw, please change into them." Noelle raised an eyebrow and glanced at Charles. He nodded. "Go ahead and change. It's better not to wear high heels when you go out." He paused and then continued with a smile, "You can wear them at home." Noelle puffed her cheeks, feeling there was something off with Charles' words. It only dawned on her when she looked at the manager.

Upon hearing Charles and Noelle's conversation, the manager made a mental note to treat Noelle well if she ever cto shop here again. He signaled to the sales attendant and turned to Charles. "Mr. Hoffman, I'll go back to work now." Charles nodded. After the manager left, Charles looked at Noelle and asked, "Do they fit well?" Noelle nodded, feeling much more comfortable in the flats.

She asked the sales attendant to pack her high heels and then approached Charles. Without the height boost from the heels, Noelle seemed quite petite standing next to Charles.

Though Noelle was 5'5" tall and considered above average for women, she still looked small next to Charles, who was 6'1" Noelle smiled, took the bag from the sales attendant, and thanked her. She then looked at Charles. "Let's go." "Alright," Charles replied, walking behind Noelle. He gave the sales attendant a meaningful glance.

The sales attendant quickly said, "Goodbye, Mr. Hoffman."

After Charles and Noelle left, the store manager approached the sales attendant, giving her an approving look. "You did well today." "Thank you, sir!"

Wearing the flats made Noelle feel much lighter. She walked aheadm turning back to look at Charles, who was following closely behind. "Thank you very much for today!"

Noelle knew that if Charles had not intervened, she would have once om again suffered at Winter's hands. Winter always assumed Noelle would not cause any major conflict. Plus, with Annie and Suzy supporting her today t would have been at a disadvantage no matter what.
