No longer a pushover

Chapter 418 Cedric flicked her forehead lightly and said, "And here I thought you'd never realize it." He then stood up and continued, "I just felt that you were still too immature back then. But now, I don't mind waiting for you." He did not want to see what had happened today to ever repeat itself ever again. Noelle blurted out, "You don't have to wait." Her face grew hot the moment she said those words. Cedric's lips curled into a faint smile. "At least letdeal with the people outside first." Noelle touched her own face as she watched him walk out of the room. She felt like everything had happened too suddenly. She even began to wonder if she was actually dreaming.

Meanwhile, outside of the hospital ward, Cedric approached and scanned the three people in front of him with a stern look. "TG Public Relations, yes?" Tilly nodded respectfully and replied, "Mr. Greene! I'm the manager of TG Public Relations, yes. Just now-" Cedric's expression was calm as ever, his gaze distant and indifferent. "From now on, you have two choices. The first option is you will resign and get out of Yasnia." The three of them responded in unison. "We choose the second option." Cedric glanced back at Noelle in her hospital ward. She was sitting on the bed and looking down at her phone.

He then continued, "Starting today, you'll be working for her as her PR team as well as personal assistants. You'll be responsible for handling everything, big or small, in her life." Tilly was stunned as she wondered if they had just received a promotion. They had long heard about Cedric having taken a liking to a young lady.

They had even heard rumors about the two of them being in a car accident together, even though news about it was suppressed. They wondered if Noelle was the very sgirl the rumors mentioned about.

Judging from the situation at hand, they also realized that Noelle might just becthe future Mrs. Greene of the Greene family. It felt like they had gotten a blessing in disguise.

After dealing with the three people from TG Public Relations, Cedric immediately called Alfred. "Alfred, I recall that your aunt is married to the so-called king of the news industry. I'd like to ask her for a favor." Alfred replied, "I already know what you're trying to say. I spoke to my aunt earlier. This time, we'll make sure that Blake is done.

"But honestly, why go to such lengths just for one guy? It's not like Blake is that hard to deal with." Cedric had many ways to ensure that Blake's career would never see the light of day again, but it was not what Noelle would have wanted. "It's not what Noelle wants." Everything Noelle had received from her family was nothing she ever wanted, but they were still forced onto her. As such, Cedric did not want to do the same. He wanted her to live according to her own wishes he did not want to interfere too much in her life.

Alfred let out a sigh and replied, "Alright, alright, you don't have to show off so much, you know? Anyway, Blake's already taken away by his manager in a helicopter. But with how long we've been blocking the road, he's definitely in for a rough time." He looked up into the night sky and felt that things would soon get even busier.

As Blake was rushed to the hospital for treatment, the outside of the hospital beca chaotic mess, with the media swarming forward, desperate to uncover the truth of the incident.

Frank hurried to the hospital as well despite being unwell. He arrived just in tto see Blake being wheeled out with visible scars on his face. Frank grew anxious.

"How did he get hurt so badly?" Xenia sobbed pitifully. "I don't know either. He was already like this by the tI arrived." She was genuinely in tears because if Blake was disfigured, his career would be over. Most people had to rely on their looks to make a living in the modern world, especially so for those in the entertainment industry.

If Blake was disfigured, he would not be able to continue working as an actor. And if his career was over, Xenia could only imagine what would happen to her.

Frank grew impatient and snapped at her. "Stop crying, Xenia. Tellwhat really happened during the live stream. I don't believe that you actually know anything about it!" At that point, Frank no longer trusted anything coming out of Xenia's mouth, especially so when Noelle was involved in the matter.

Xenia stammered her words. "I, I really have no idea! Blake and Noelle had always been on edge with each other.

"He wanted to convince Noelle to drop the lawsuit so that our family ne could stay together she probably refused his request, and then a fight broke out afterward."

Frank pressed on. "You're still not tellingthe truth, are you? Blake wouldn't hurt someone for no good reason! There must be something behind all of this!" Just then, Xenia caught sight of Donovan approaching them and immediately dropped to the floor. "I really don't know, Frank!"

Donovan rushed into the room and helped Xenia up. "Frank, why are you being so harsh on Xenia? It's not like she's the one who hurt Blake! It was Noelle!" "Donovan, you can't always be so biased," Frank replied.

Donovan believed that Noelle was the cause of everything that had just happened. "I'm just stating the facts! Where's Noelle? She even went so far as to ruin Blake's life with a live stream! Get her over here now! "She's already ruined Lucas. I won't let her ruin Blake, too!"
