"Don't get it twisted. I don't know her!" Sean was quick to catch the hint in Charles's tone and shot back, I've only had the pleasure of seeing her once, nothing more. I'm curious. How did you get tangled up with the Shaws? I heard that Joseph's kid has sties with them too." "Mhm," Charles nodded, confirming the connection.

A knockout like her, and you're just standing there? That's not your style," Sean teased." Imight just tell Peter... Look, I may be a doctor, but this isn't my specialty. You didn't fillin earlier. I've just stepped away from surgery. I don't have a magic cure on me!" Sean's face was the picture of despair. "You already know what's going to cure her, so why in the world do you need me?"

Since Noelle was under the influence of a particular drug, they could not just hand her off to anyone. There were no servants at Phoenix Tree Residence, just the three guys, Charles sent Ronald and Sean out of the room.
Charles filled the tub with water, dumped in the ice, and gently placed Noelle inside. The cold hit her like a wave, and Noelle almost instantly tried to escape the tub, clutching desperately at Charles's arms, tears falling freely. "You're so mean! It's so cold! You're evil!" Charles's deep-set eyes softened as he patted her forehead, whispering soothingly. "Stay still. Just soak in it for a bit, okay?" "You have to stay with me!" Noelle's lips quivered in a pout. "I don't want to be alone. It's too cold!" Sean led Ronald into the living room with a big smile. Ronald's whole body jolted as he caught Sean's eye, 1/2 +15 BONUS
