Chapter 137 I'm Voting for Miss Taylor
"Darling!" Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Stella shook her head at him and gestured, and then continued to comfort Audrey.
Audrey wasn't frightened. In fact, she had long been immune to Noah's stern face since she was
scared by him when she was little.
It was Stella who felt sorry, quickly cleaning up the debris on the ground.
Noah also wanted to help, but Stella gently stopped him, smiling softly. "Leave this to me. You don't
know how to do these things. Don't hurt your hands."
She swiftly cleaned up the floor. Just then, a customer came in and she hurriedly went to the courtyard
to greet them.
Opal had been watching from the side, sneaking glances at Noah's expression. She took the
opportunity to approach him and whispered with a chuckle.
"Your wife is pretty nice!"
Noah froze.
Opal squinted her eyes and smiled. "Although I'm not your birth mother, I've watched you grow up over
the years. I can tell that you have genuine feelings for Miss Taylor!"
Noah looked at her, but his stern face still showed no expressions.
Opal understood his thoughts well. Sometimes, she felt sorry for the children of the Martinez family.
They seemed prestigious and enjoyed all the privileges in front of others, but they didn't even have the
autonomy to decide their own marriages. This made her, who was filled with thoughts of freedom and
independence, feel a strong resistance.
That was why she was willing to do everything she could to help Noah and Stella.
"Noah, when do you plan to bring Miss Taylor back?"
Noah pondered for a while and said solemnly, "This matter can't be taken lightly. The marriage of every
person in the Martinez family involves too many interests, and it's complicated. I'm afraid they will..."
"They will hurt Miss Taylor?" Opal sneered. "Humph, let them try! Whoever dares to have such
thoughts, I will be the first to bring them down!"
"Can you really bring down... my grandfather too?"
The confident and imposing Opal suddenly became timid, her mouth twitched twice, and she froze.
After a moment, she laughed dryly.
Oops, that was abrupt. She embarrassed herself in front of her son again!
Noah chuckled, turned around, and went behind the bar, washing the coffee cups in the sink one by
one.
"Noah!" Opal had to salvage her pride no matter what. "Hey... I can't go against Sir Martinez indeed,
but my family is not to be messed with! If Sir Martinez has any objections, he has to consider my family,
right?"
"Anyway, my vote is definitely for Miss Taylor! Once she marries into the Martinez family, I will definitely
pave a golden road for her, making your love life unimpeded!"
Noah pursed his lips and said sincerely after a while, "Thank you, Opal."
"Thank me for what? We're family!"
"Well, about my father..."
"Oh, your father is not a problem! Hasn't that coward always listened to me?"
Noah was speechless.
"Ah, ha-ha..."
Opal couldn't change the habit of talking without thinking.
"Noah, let me tell you seriously!" She coughed lightly twice. "Your father and I have no objections, but
you have to ask your mother about this. After all, she is your birth mother, and only if she agrees will it
count."
"Besides, if you have the support of your maternal grandfather's family, Miss Taylor will be accepted
more easily, right?"
Noah's hand, washing the cups, suddenly paused, a deep gaze appearing in his eyes.
Opal was right, but it would be difficult to gain his mother's support.
His mother didn't have the easygoing personality of Opal, but was more dominant and authoritative,
with a determination that was no less than a man's.
If she had been a little more rational in her emotions back then, she wouldn't have divorced Alton.
Noah took a deep breath, and outside, there was the sound of Stella and Audrey laughing and talking.
The two of them sat in the sunny courtyard, surrounded by blooming irises. The scent of cranberry
cookies and macchiatos filled the air, and they wished they could freeze this scene forever.
"Don't worry." Opal smiled, "Since your sister loves Stella so much, as your mother, I will do my best!"
"To be honest, everyone in your Martinez family is fine, except for that old stubborn Christopher! And
that little brat Zander, they..."
As Opal spoke, she started cursing again.
Noah helplessly smiled. He knew how Christopher had been cursing him behind his back all these
years, and now Opal was cursing back.
......
Since learning about her origins, Stella had been smiling on the surface, but Noah could tell that she
was feeling down.
She was a bit better when there were customers in the store and she was busy.
But when the store was empty, she would sit alone on the steps of the courtyard, gazing at the sky and
looking incredibly lonely.
He wanted to make her happy, so he bit the bullet and went to ask Mia for help.
Mia was planning a trip with Jericho, and their destination was Grey Port.
"Why don't you go with us?" Mia happily suggested, "When Stella and I were in college, we talked
about saving money to go to Grey Port. Now that we have this opportunity, she will definitely be happy!"
Jericho's expression changed, and he quickly pulled her.
Mia glared at him. "What's wrong with you? Are you unwilling?"
Jericho awkwardly smiled, looking like a coward. "No... It's just that more people make it livelier! I just
don't know if Mr. Anderson is willing to go with us. Ha-ha, Mia, they might have their own plans,
wanting to be alone together..."
"Right, Liam?"
Jericho said while covering half of his face with his hand, crazily winking at Noah.
Unexpectedly, Noah smiled and unhurriedly said, "I think that's a good idea. Having more people
makes it livelier!"
Jericho was speechless.
"Then it's settled!" Mia happily smiled. "Go back quickly and prepare with Stella. I'll make the itinerary
tonight!"
Two days later, they arrived at Grey Port as planned.
Stella and Mia were happily skipping ahead arm in arm, while the two men behind them, one gritting his
teeth and the other looking slightly proud.
"Noah, how dare you do this to me?"
"What's wrong?" Noah's expression was calm.
"You know the answer!" Jericho had wanted to have a private time with Mia!
Noah put his hands in his pockets and strode forward with a light smile on his face.
"Jericho, can't you be a bit more manly? Look how happy they both are!"
Grey Port was a famous shopping paradise, where international luxury brands were all tax-free. Mia
dragged Stella through various luxury stores and malls, satisfying their shopping desires to the fullest.
By the end of the day, Jericho's arms were full of Mia's purchases, and his legs were starting to tremble
because he was too tired.
Noah wasn't in a much better condition. It was just that Stella didn't buy anything.
This time, when they entered a beauty store, Mia and Stella went in to try lipstick shades, while Jericho
and Noah saw a bench outside. Their eyes lit up at the same time, and they rushed over like lightning!
Noah gained the upper hand and managed to get more seats.
Jericho rolled his eyes, placed the bags on the ground, and let out a heavy sigh.
"Why aren't they even tired?"
