Chapter 426 Noelle then returned to her hospital ward. That evening, Cedric was too busy with work to return to her side, but he had food delivered from L Bistro to her.

Tilly explained, "Ms. Liddell, the police should be releasing the report of their preliminary investigation tonight. After that, we can host a live stream to explain everything clearly.

"It would be best if you wore a hospital gown and showed your injuries on the live stream to gain public sympathy." "I understand," Noelle replied.

Sure enough, not long after dinner, the police published a statement about their preliminary investigation.

"A thorough investigation into the claims of the victim, Ms. Liddell, being assaulted on a live stream has confirmed that the alluded perpetrator, Mr. Liddell, has indeed engaged in violent behavior. Further details will be disclosed after a more in-depth investigation into the matter." The statement from the police becviral as soon as it was released.

Blake was a celebrity with a sizable following, after all, but the public opinion on the matter had instantly shifted now that the police had confirmed his violent tendencies.

As a result, Blake was now labeled an abuser. Moreover, many more people had cforward with their own anecdotes, claiming that Blake had always displayed a foul temper in private and frequently resorted to violence.

Seven said that former colleagues who worked alongside him were slapped so hard that they had lost hearing in one ear, but the matter had been covered up at the time. It resurfaced with the reveal of Blake's true character.

Noticing that the virality of the news had reached a tipping point, Noelle started a live stream with her own account along with a script prepared by Tilly.

Her face was pale, and her body was covered in visible injuries when she appeared on camera. She did not even need any makeup, as her real injuries were more than enough to cause the intended impact.

Noelle spoke up. "I'm sure that everyone now knows that I have a bad relationship with my family. They once rejected my admission letter to Yole University just to forceto stay at home.

"I've fought tooth and nail to leave the Liddell family and start a new life, only to find that they would never letgo.

"Live streaming was my only weapon of choice to resist against them and to expose Blake's true nature to everyone else. He had always resorted to violence ever since we were just children. Whenever I disobeyed him, he would beatup..." Noelle's face was pale, and her eyes were tearing up as she explained everything that had happened that day during the live stream.

She wiped away her tears and continued, "Blake has always maintained an image of a kind older brother in public. No one ever believed what I said because of how well he had put up the act. I only hope that now, the law will finally hold him accountable for his actions." As soon as she finished her speech, Blake's fans flooded into her live stream and began cursing out at her, as well as arguing with her supporters.

Just then, Noelle received a request for a PK match. She took a look at the userninviting her and recognized it to be Blake's. She could not help but wonder if Blake wanted to tell her something.

Tilly quickly gestured for Noelle not to accept the request and to end the live stream immediately.

Noelle did as she was told and immediately closed the live stream before turning to Tilly. "Is it fine to ignore that request?" "It's fine. The person who'll appear to talk to you definitely wouldn't be Blake himself, but his manager. Think about it: he's disfigured.

"He wouldn't want to show his face in public, at least until it's fixed. That is unless he doesn't want to stay around in the entertainment industry any longer, of course," Tilly explained.

Noelle found her answer pretty convincing. With how vain Blake was, there was no way that he would let anyone see his injured face. But then her phone started ringing nonstop, and the caller ID was Blake himself.

Noelle chuckled lightly before answering the call, and she was om immediately greeted by Blake's furjous voice. "Noelle! How dare you refuse my PK request? Why would you decline it if you're not guilty?" "I've heard from Frank that you're disfigured," Noelle replied.

She instantly shattered his composure with just a single sentence.

Blake replied, "You're givingno other choice, Noelle. Do you honestly think that hiding in a hospital will кверной keep you safe? You may be safe, yes, but your friends won't be as lucky." Noelle's expression darkened. "This is between us, Blake. If you have a problem, catand only me." "You ruined my life, Noelle! Do you honestly think that I'll let you off the hook so easily?"

"If you lay even a finger on my friends, I'll expose your disfiguredh face for the entire world to see! I'll have everyone bear witness to just how ugly you've become!" "You wouldn't dare!"
