Chapter 321 Noelle heard James' words, and a hint of confusion flashed in her eyes. Was Frank seriously ill? She remembered that he only had a stomach illness, right? She hadn't heard of him having any serious diseases in her past life, but he did look a lot thinner.
Frank straightened up and pushed James aside. "I'm fine. It's just my old ailment." "But Mr. Liddell, you-" "James, you're talking too much." He stopped James from saying anything more and turned to Noelle. "I'm not here to plead on Lucas and Xenia's behalf. They made a mistake, and they should face the consequences." Was he not here to plead? Frank took a file from James. "The Al project has a lot of potential. I know you're a key member at Maple Enterprise, but why not strike out on your own?" "What do you mean?" "This is my company. I'm offering you full ownership. You can independently develop the Al project, and when it goes public, all the profits will be yours." Noelle looked at the share transfer agreement. She didn't expect him to give his company to her.

She spoke coldly. "I don't need it. You can keep it." "No, this is my offer to you. In the past, I failed to see how much you've suffered, how you were deceived by Xenia, misunderstood, punished, and how an outsider was favored over you." He shoved the file into her hands. "I've already signed it." Noelle tossed the document aside. "But I don't want it!" The papers were scattered all over the place. His face was pale. "Noelle, I haven't been a good brother, but I'll try to learn how to be one." "You can try being a good brother to whoever you want. It has nothing to do with me." "What can I do to make it up to you? I just want to be good to you." "Stay away from me." Without looking back, Noelle walked off. Frank stood there, watching her figure disappear into the dorm building.
He bent down to pick up the scattered papers, his hands trembling. Finally, he crouched on the ground, unable to get back up for a long time.
James stood aside, watching, his face filled with sadness as he turned away. If Frank had known it would cto this, why did he treat Noelle badly in the first place? He had warned Frank that Xenia wasn't a good person. Unfortunately, Frank never listened.
Noelle had already becindependent and no longer relied on the Liddell family to live. Trying to mend the sibling relationship now was easier said than done. Noelle returned to her dorm, feeling inexplicably down. She had once been closest to Frank.
Donovan was rarely home, had a volatile temper, and was used to having the final say. She couldn't help but feel a bit intimidated.
