Married to a Secret Billionaire (Stella Taylor) novel Chapter 109

Chapter 109 Can't Exercise Vigorously after Eating

"What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing..." Stella answered in a small voice.

While eating spaghetti, she stole glances at him and pouted, her voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz. "You're too accurate with your calculations..."

What on earth was this man thinking? How did he know that her menstrual cycle had ended today?

Stella's face turned even redder as she looked at him with a shy and reproachful gaze.

Noah was completely confused, unable to understand what was happening even after thinking for a long time.

It was just a meal. Why did her face turn red?

Noah coughed lightly and looked at Stella, unable to help but chuckle. "It seems like you've adapted well to the Taylor Group these past few days. Is there something that made you happy?"

Upon hearing this, Stella's eyes dimmed and she gently put down her fork.

She recounted everything that had happened to her these past few days to Noah, including the troubles she faced from Amelia in the company lobby.

Noah listened quietly, able to imagine how isolated she must have felt in the Taylor Group. Although it was her family's company, her situation was much more difficult than anyone else's.

But this was the path she had to take.

She couldn't be afraid or give up.

And he would always be by her side.

"Darling." Stella whispered, "My father talked to me today and said... he wanted to assign the HR department to me."

Noah's eyes brightened.

The HR department had always been an important function in a conglomerate, and only trusted individuals could hold such a position.

But Henry's intentions made him doubt...

Noah smiled, a hint of cunning flashing in his eyes. He asked in a deep voice, "Did you agree?"

"Of course I refused." Her answer was straightforward and decisive.

He knew that she wouldn't be so foolish!

"Why?"

Stella glanced at him and whispered, "In a conglomerate, the HR and finance departments are the two most important departments. According to my father's personality, he wants to personally control both people and money."

"Madison has been married to him for so many years, and Amelia has been in the company for so many years, but they haven't been able to secure a place in the HR and finance departments. Why should I be appointed as soon as I worked there?"

Noah didn't speak, but there was a hint of admiration in his eyes.

"I guess there are two possibilities." Stella continued to analyze, "Either he's testing me to see if I have any ulterior motives towards the Taylor Group, or... he's deliberately driving a wedge between me and Amelia."

"If I agree, Amelia and Madison won't let me off easily. The more intense our rivalry, the more it will please him!"

"So I won't step into this mess." Stella took a sip of soup. "At least not now!"

Noah chuckled and took out a tissue to wipe the corners of her mouth, his expression doting.

His voice was hoarse and low as he praised her, "You are really smart."

This was completely heartfelt. He thought he had married a soft and tender wife, but Stella had surprised him again and again.

She wasn't a parasitic orchid, but a kapok tree standing side by side with him.

The roots intertwined underground, leaves touching the clouds.

However, the more it was like this, the more he worried about their future...

Stella sweetly smiled at him, her beautiful big eyes revealing a hint of pride.

"Now you know you've married a treasure, right?"

Noah smiled and remained silent.

"Honey." He rubbed her hair. "Your intelligent mind is wasted working at the Taylor Group! It's better to be your own boss."

"I wish..." Stella sighed and finished the remaining spaghetti. Then she leaned back on the sofa, rubbing her round belly.

Noah finished washing the dishes, wiped his hands, and saw her lazily lying on the sofa with a cute expression. He smiled and walked over, giving her a gentle tug.

Stella was suddenly pulled into his strong embrace.
