Chapter 104
Nicolas couldn’t help but laugh after hearing Noelle’s words.
He raised his hand and lightly tapped Noelle’s forehead, teasing, “Elly babe, be honest, where did you learn all this from?”
At first, it sounded pretty reasonable.
However, the more he listened, the more it started to sound like some relationship advice straight out of a self–help magazine on how couples should maintain harmony.
Caught in the act, Noelle smiled, her round, sparkling eyes twinkling mischievously.
She admitted honestly, “Lately, I’ve been reading relationship magazines to learn about social skills. I came across an article about how couples should interact, and I thought it made a lot of sense… so I just borrowed a little bit.”
It turned out she was really reading relationship magazines.
Nicolas laughed when he heard that. “Why do you learn everything?”
“Of course, there’s no end to learning! You have to learn more things that you don’t know!” Noelle always remembered her mission.
She had been let out into the world to explore and absorb all kinds of new things.
Learning and mastering was her most essential mission.
Suddenly, the sound of a stomach growling broke the moment.
Both of them turned toward the source of the voice. It was Noelle’s stomach.
Noelle clutched her belly, blinking up at Nicolas with wide, innocent eyes. Her voice was soft as she whined, “Nick, I’m hungry… I want meat.”
“Let’s go. I’ll take you to eat some meat.” Nicolas was about to get up.
But Noelle was still sitting comfortably on his lap, her arms wrapped around his neck, showing no intention of moving.
“Still not moving? Hmm?” Nicolas asked.
Noelie’s eyes curved like little crescent moons, looking especially sweet and endearing.
She continued to whine playfully at Nicolas, “Nick, carry me. I have no energy left.”
Nicolas knew this girl was lying just to be spoiled.
However, he did not expose her.
He got up and easily picked up Noelle in his arms, saying dotingly, “Alright, you little rascal, let’s go eat.”
Noelle cheered triumphantly, throwing her arms up in excitement, only to lose her balance and nearly topple backward.
-Startled, Nicolas quickly tightened his hold on her. “Hold on properly! Stop moving!”
Noelle quickly tightened her arms around Nicolas’s neck, seizing the moment to kiss him on the cheek. Grinning mischievously, she chirped, “Nick, you’re the best!”
Her smile was very sweet like a little sun, shining brightly.
Nicolas gazed at her, his eyes darkening. It felt as if a feather had gently brushed against his heart, stirring something deep within him.
His Adam’s apple bobbed as he swallowed.
Unable to resist, he lowered his head and captured her lips in a kiss.

At the cafe.
On the other side.
After being given empty promises by Reyna, Leia ran to Charlie to complain.
Leia held her cup tightly, her expression filled with frustration. “Charlie, I don’t know what’s going on. My mentor clearly said she would give me opportunities and help me debut, but it’s been so long, and I haven’t gotten a single job. In the company, I feel completely invisible.”

Charlie was not surprised.
He harrowed his eyes and said lightly, “I told you to wait, didn’t 12 But you didn’t listen.
Hearing this. Leia’s eyes turned red. She bit her lip and said, feeling wronged, “I was just so happy at the time! A top diva said she wanted to take me in as her last disciple. Who could pass up such an opportunity?”
Charlie remained silent.
Leia looked at him again, her voice soft and probing. “Charlie, aren’t you collaborating with her? Can you talk to her for me?”
Charlie knew that Leia had come to him for this datter.
Without hiding anything, he told her directly, “Leia, I can’t help you with this. Right now, the collaboration between Phoenix Entertainment and Lighting Media is stuck and hasn’t moved forward. If I approach her now, it might backfire.”
“What?” Leia was stunned when she heard that. “The collaboration is stuck? Why?”
“We need to find out if Reyna really created The Shadows.”
As soon as Charlie said that, Leia could no longer remain calm.
Her expression darkened. “Charlie, why are you still holding onto this? Noelle was just bragging. Do you really believe she’s the actual creator of The Shadows?”
“Leia, calm down.” Charlie frowned, just about to explain what had happened in the entertainment industry recently.
But Leia interrupted him, “Charlie! Noelle is a liar! She not only bragged that The Shadows was her work, but now she’s also claiming to be the music arranger for that new idol group’s song! She’s just making things up. How can you believe her?”
These words immediately caught Charlie’s attention. “What did you say? Noelle claimed to be the music arranger for The Legend?”
