Chapter 218 I Won’t Marry Her
“lue Night, Second Floor Private Room.
There were no unnecessary words.
Noel had mentioned he would look for her tonight.
Whitney’s mood, which had lifted even just a little, immediately dropped to nothing.
“I’m stepping out for a bit, co ahead and eat,” she said.
“Where are you going?” Yvette asked
“My dad asked me to come home for a bit.”
Her situation with Noel was complicated, and she couldn’t explain it all right now. She could only make up a simple excuse now, and she would tell Yvette when the right time came
In Blue Night’s second–floor private room. Noel put his phone down and started fiddling with the dice in his hand, lost in thought.
Thomas took a sip from his glass, his phone still in hand, glancing at it every so often. When he still hadn’t gotten a reply from Wette, he muttered, “You really can’t oftend women. Look at me now. I’m completely at her mercy. I’m out of ideas.”
Noel glanced at him. “You’re the one who got yourself into this.”
“Tell me about it,” Thomas said with a sigh. “I was blind back then. If I hadn’t lost her, I wouldn I have realized how great she was,”
Unfortunately, now that he wanted to win her back, Yvette was giving him the cold shoulder.
“You’ve got more than just bad eyes,” Noel added.
Thomas brought his glass to his lips, a cautious look on his face. “What are you gonna roast me about nowi
“You talk too much.”
“What’s that supposed to mean? Thomas set his glass down and pressed for an explanation.
“Dad you tell Yvette I’m going to be engaged to Lillan?”
“When we were on the phone, she was right there, and she heard. She asked, and you know I’m trying to get into her good books. I couldn’t exactly lie.” Noel shot Thomas a disdainful look “When you told her, it was equivalent to telling Whitney.”
Noel shot him a sideways glance, making it clear that he thought Thomas was asking a stupid question.
Thomas began to backpedal. “Well, even if I didn’t say anything, she’d find out sooner or later. Better for her to bear it now. Did she make a scene about it?” Thomas knew everything about Noel’s situation. He also knew that after this crisis, Noel and Whitney had fully confirmed their feelings for each other. However, tate had other plans
Juin when everything seemed settled, Lilian returned to the country. And on the very next day, she went to the hospital with Madelyn, catching Noel completely off guard

“Are you really going to marry Lilland” Thomas asked.
Whitney had arved and was standing outside the door to the private room. She had been about to open it when she heard Thomas asking that question.

Chapter 2100 Wont Mary Her
Noel glanced at the two bodyguards standing across from him and said, “You two can leave now. Also, have Dariel order a bouquet to send to Ms. Reid,” “Understood, Mr. Howard”
When Whitney heard someone coming out of the room, she quickly turned and hurried to the restroom, she didn’t want to face Noel just yet.
Once the two bodyguards were out of the room, Thomas glanced at the door. He stood and walled over to it, gently opening a crack to make sure there was no one outside
“Which one of them is Mrs. Howard’s man? Or are both of them?”
Noel’s eyes darkened. “The one on the left just now.”
“Good thing Dariel didn’t betray you. He even warned you about the surveillance from Mrs. Howard, I played my part well too, huh? Kept the show going so Mrs. Howard would be at ease.”
Everything they had said earlier was meant for the bodyguard to overhear, who would then report back to Madelyn Thomas’s smug expression faded slightly as he shifted his focus, “But your engagement is real. What’s your plan?”
