StarNovelChapter 189 Chapter 189 Noelle entered the kitchen and saw Charles busy cooking. She stood at the door for a while. Sensing her presence, Charles paused and asked, "Why aren't you sitting with them?" "We're all just sitting around while you're busy by yourself. Can you manage everything?" Noelle observed Charles for a bit, noticing his methodical approach to cooking. She watched for a while before asking. “Do you need any help?" Charles' movements hesitated slightly and then he nodded. "Check on the stew. I had it on high heat. earlier. You can turn it down to a simmer now." "Okay!" Noelle walked over and took a sniff. "It smells great. What kind of stew is it?" "Lamb stew," Charles replied after a moment. “You were drugged yesterday. There's probably still sresidue in your system.
