Chapter 332 Wasn't Cedric the one who knew best about this? Why was he even asking? Noelle gazed out the window at the night sky. Her features reflected in the glass were blurry and indistinct. After returning to the dorm, she took a shower and lay down.

The group chat was buzzing with discussions about today's events, and smembers mentioned wanting to participate in the competition next time. She quickly skimmed through the chat and exited the conversation. The first thing she saw was a message from Cedric.

"Only my girlfriend is allowed to check my phone." "Mm... Are you sure you want to check?" When Noelle read these messages, Cedric's face unexpectedly flashed before her eyes. What did he mean by that? He took her candid photo and now used these words to brush her off.

She had just confronted the Liddell family today and was in a good mood, but now this? Noelle irritably turned off her phone. What a bastard Cedric was! After the finals, Instagram was flooded with pictures of Team Celestial. There were many fans of Team Celestial, and Magnus was very popular. After all, he was good-looking and cfrom a well-off family-who wouldn't like him? But Magnus, who was the heir of the Greene family, had not been exposed; only rumors about his good background were circulating. In her past life, she had learned this from Donovan.

The next day, Noelle went to class as usual.

Justin and his people cto block her. "Noelle, didn't I warn you not to make things difficult for Xenia? Just because Samantha apologized, do you think you can do whatever you want?" Her eyes showed irritation as she walked straight towards Justin.

Scared, he stepped back, saying, "I'm warning you! The Parham family won't let you off if you lay a hand on me!" Noelle looked at him indifferently, and he immediately turned and ran off. What a coward.

After running off, he felt embarrassed and quickly called Alfred to complain. "Alfred, did you handle the matter with the law firm I asked you about?" "Are you looking for a beating, huh? How dare you giveorders?" "Alfred, I'm just anxious! I tried reasoning with Noelle today, but she actually tried to hit me! She's done this before in Aldoria, don't you remember?" "It looks like you haven't learned your lesson. Getting beaten by a woman; you're an embarrassment to the Parham family." Alfred was starting to get a headache. "Justin, I'm warning you! Don't mess with Noelle!" "Alfred, is Noelle your woman? You protected her in Aldoria before." "Stop asking questions. Just remember what I said. Don't makeremind you again." Alfred hung up, but Justin couldn't help but overthink. Alfred was so protective of Noelle. There must be something going on between them.

That made things more complicated.

When he returned to the classroom, Xenia immediately looked at him expectantly. "How did it go?" "I obviously scolded Noelle, but you know her temper. She's stubborn and won't listen to reason." He wouldn't mention how scared he was of running away from Noelle.

"Did you stop her from hiring a lawyer like you said?" Xenia noticed that Donovan was starting to distance himself from her, probably because he was still upset about what Noelle had said. Frank and Lucas had also been ignoring her completely.

She was desperate to change her situation and could only turn to Justin for help. Lucas would be fine if he could prevent Noelle from hiring a lawyer. As long as Lucas was safe, she still could win him back.

Justin looked a bit awkward. "It's not a big deal, but if I get involved, my mother might find out. If she does, she won't have a good impression of you." Xenia felt disappointed but tried to act understanding. "I understand. We can't let her find out." If she had a bad impression of Xenia, how could Xenia ever marry into the Parham family? Nearby, Samantha snorted. "You can't even handle this small thing, Justin. You're such a failure!" Justin's pride was hurt. "Look who's talking. Why did you apologize to Noelle in front of everyone?"

"That's because Noelle has something on me. Plus, I can't cause trouble right now-Laura's about to get engaged to the rich bachelor of Yasnia.

"The Merlock family can't afford any issues. Otherwise, I would neverm tolerate that country bumpkin Noelle." She was nearly seething. "I can call and ensure Noelle can't hire a lawyer. It's no big deal."

Xenia's eyes lit up with surprise. This was perfect. Justin, however tooked at her with suspicion. "Has Noelle E started dating someone new?" Why else would Alfred be so protective of her? "No. Her ambiguous boyfriend has always been Dr. Greene." Justin's expression changed. "His last nis Greene?" He suddenly had a bad feeling.
