"Oh, it wasn't my idea. It was Oliver's!"
Caleb quickly disassociated himself from it.
Noah gave Oliver a sinister look.
"That's not true. Noah, I..."
"Not only did you want to come, but you also said you wanted to take a ride in Noah's new car!"
"Caleb!" Oliver couldn't outargue him no matter what.
Noah said coldly, "Didn't I tell you not to wander around here? What if Stella sees you?"
"I..."
Oliver felt like crying, while Caleb suppressed his smile.
"Forget it. Noah, he's never been clever. Don't bother with him!"
Oliver was speechless.
"Oh, by the way, your new car is really beautiful!" Caleb smiled like a sly fox. "It's thanks to Stella's
good taste, right?"
This time, Noah's face finally showed a hint of a smile.
Caleb said, "Stella does indeed have good taste. Noah, your previous cars were not practical at all, but
this car's performance and style, especially the color, are a perfect match for you!"
Oliver instantly showed disdain.
But Noah was in a good mood and even suggested taking them out for a drive.
So, Caleb finally got to the point. "We did come to find you for something... Let's talk somewhere quiet."
Noah nodded and went back into the store to ask Stella for the car keys.
"Are you going out?"
"Yeah... I'm just going out for a spin with some friends," Noah said with a light laugh.
Audrey was in the store, guarding the oven like a little glutton. As soon as she heard this, she
immediately understood that those two guys had come to find him.
Stella handed him the keys and casually asked, "What friends?"
"Just..." Noah thought for a moment. "My former cellmates!"
Audrey couldn't help but laugh, almost spraying coffee everywhere.
"Cellmates?" Stella was taken aback. "The one who called you and tried to borrow money last time?"
"Yep..."
"Darling, didn't you say you didn't want to have any contact with them anymore?"
Audrey mischievously looked at Noah, waiting to see how he would explain himself!
But Noah was as clever as ever and said, "They've changed for the better and started a new life. I think
they deserve a chance."
Ahem! Audrey coughed violently.
Stella quickly handed her a tissue and patted her back gently, but didn't take Noah's words too
seriously.
Even Jericho could change for the better, so those people should be able to do the same.
Besides, she had always believed in Noah's judgment!
"Alright, go ahead!" Stella smiled and said, "I'll take care of the store!"
Noah went out with the car keys. Audrey looked at his back and then looked at Stella, asking softly,
"Stella, do you really trust him that much?"
"Huh?" Stella didn't understand. She was busy making another iced latte for Audrey.
"All his friends are his former cellmates. They have been to prison!"
Stella's smile froze, but her eyes were still so gentle.
She looked at Audrey tenderly and whispered, "He took the wrong path before he met me, but ever
since we've been together, he hasn't made any mistakes again."
"The most important thing between husband and wife is trust in each other. I understand Liam, and I
trust him completely. He won't make the same mistakes again."
"Stella." Audrey was somewhat touched. "What would you do if he really deceived you one day?"
"How is that possible? He promised me that he would never hide anything from me."
"But..."
That sentence was about to slip out, but Audrey couldn't say it and instead swallowed hard.
Only Noah could explain his identity to Stella personally, and no one else could intervene.
"Alright." Stella smiled and pinched her nose. "Why are you acting so strange today? Is it because you
didn't get any cookies?"
Audrey forced a smile and took out the cookies with her.
The wind chimes at the door rang, and guests started coming in one after another.
Stella began another busy day. This day was just like any other day, with sunlight filling the small
courtyard, the scent of coffee wafting through the house, and guests chatting and taking photos,
leaving with good reviews.
Although it was nearing early autumn, the irises were still blooming beautifully.
Stella's heart was filled with happiness. As Audrey looked at her satisfied smile, Audrey hoped that she
could continue to be happy like this.
......
Noah drove along the riverside, driving slowly and carefully, with very few bumps.
The passenger seat belonged to Stella and no one else was allowed to sit there.
So the two people in the back seat wore faces of despair, staring at the back of Noah's head in shock
and occasionally sighing lightly.
Noah treated a car that cost less than twenty thousand dollars with extreme care.
As for those luxury sports cars that cost millions of dollars in the past, he would rev the engine and not Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
feel the slightest heartache when they broke down, treating them as scrap metal.
He was absolutely partial...
"Noah." Oliver yawned. "If you keep driving at this speed, I'm going to fall asleep!"
He saw Noah's face darken in the rearview mirror, and Noah slowly pulled over to the side of the road.
"If you want to sleep, then get out and sleep. You drool when you sleep, and don't get it on the car!"
Oliver immediately sat up straight, full of energy.
"Well, Noah." Caleb smiled flatteringly. "Can I drink some water?"
Noah glared at him. "What if you spill it?"
Caleb didn't say anything and endured it no matter how thirsty he was.
"Noah, let me tell you something." Oliver decided to get straight to the point and not suffer here.
"Zander has planned to send Liam to Bramore."
"Yes." Caleb nodded. "They have been processing the paperwork recently, and they have trained Liam
quite well."
"They are acting fast." Noah sneered and said, "They are preparing for him to replace me and go to
Bramore to ask for money!"
"Yes."
"It doesn't matter. I have also contacted my mother." He said coldly, "I told her that there will soon be a
fake son going to ask for money, so she should be prepared."
"Your mother?" Oliver was a little worried. "Can she handle it alone? I heard that Christopher has been
getting close to your uncle recently. They might have colluded early on!"
"Don't worry." Noah looked back at the two of them. "My mother gave me this name. She believed that I
could be as steady as Noah's ark!"
Oliver and Caleb exchanged glances and chuckled.
Noah's mother, as the eldest daughter of her family, was used to being dominant her whole life. The
more formidable her opponent, the more she could fight back.
Noah fully inherited this excellent genetic trait from her.
"So when Liam arrives in Bramore, there is only one way left for him." Oliver smiled. "That is to be
captured by your mother!"
Caleb nodded. "Once he is captured, we can solve a significant part of the problem!"
"By the way, Noah." Oliver continued, "Opal and Audrey have been living in the Luxury Hotel, where my
uncle is taking care of them. Everything is okay!"
"Thank you for what you've done for me."
"We are friends, so it's no bother!" Oliver smirked, and then his expression gradually became serious.
"But... Noah, is Audrey in a relationship? There has always been a man by her side..."
Noah's eyes froze.
Oliver took out some surveillance footage from his phone. "It's him. I remember his name is Horace,
and he is a long-term worker in your family."
"Yes, there is such a person." Noah frowned, "Is there anything strange about him?"
"Everything is fine, and he doesn't dare to bother Audrey all the time." Oliver scratched his head. "I just
think he's strange. A few days ago when I crossed paths with him, he didn't say a word. If it weren't for
Audrey's introduction, I would have thought he was mute!"
