Chapter 427 Noelle's tone turned cold. "Do you think there's anything I wouldn't dare to do?" "You've really ruined us all, Noelle! You're a jinx of our family! You've even ruined Donovan's whole plan! How are we supposed to find the murderer and avenge our parents now?" Blake asked.
Noelle had no idea Donovan had ssort of plan in motion. "What do you mean?" When she struck a deal with Donovan that day, he had never mentioned such a plan before.
Blake continued lashing out at her hysterically. "So you only bother to ask about it now? It's too late! You're the one that caused our parents to die! And now you're also the one obstructing Donovan's plan to avenge them. If you're not a jinx, then what are you?" Just then, Donovan walked into the hospital room and snatched away Blake's phone. "Listen, Noelle, aside from Frank, I arranged every one of your older brother's careers on purpose.
"It was all so that when we finally found a lead, we could capture the murderer and make them pay for what they've done to our parents." Noelle sneered and replied, "Are you seriously trying to use our parents onagain?" "I'm not lying to you this time," Donovan replied.
Both ends of the phone call fell silent for a short while, and Donovan continued, "Noelle, our family has gone through a lot to get to this point. What happened with Blake could have been handled in private. There was no reason for this to go viral and ruin his career." "Hah! And you're only tellingthis now? Don't you think it just sounds ridiculous?" replied Noelle before hanging up.

If such a grand plan really existed, he would have already mentioned it when the incident with Lucas had happened.
Tilly asked, "Ms. Liddell, do you really have photos of Blake's disfigured face?" Noelle did not think about taking pictures at the time. "No, I don't. I just lied about it. He wouldn't dare to take that gamble anyway." It was because Blake's face was covered in blood. It was horrifying to look at, and it was beyond what she had expected.
She was not the type to hold onto leverage to threaten people.
However, since Blake threatened her by endangering the people around her, she had no choice but to deliberately make a threat of her own.
"Alright, then. We'll handle the media response. You can just focus on resting up for now, Ms. Liddell," Tilly replied.
"Okay. Thanks for your hard work." "It's nothing, Ms. Liddell. This is our job, after all." Tilly immediately left the room with her team. It was now their turn on the battlefield, and they had to make sure that they won this very first battle.
Noelle was now alone in her room, and she soon received a message from Cedric. "What are you doing?" She replied, "I just finished the live stream. Right now, I'm just on my phone watching the comments tear each other apart." "There's no need to look at the comments. It'll only put you in a bad mood. Go outside and get sfresh air instead. I'll be back later to keep you company." Noelle felt a little better after reading his reply.
Two days later, Noelle was notified to go to the police station.
Cedric made sure to accompany her. Back in the car, he held her hand and said, "Mr. Rodrick Wit be with us shortly. If there's anything that you don't understand, just ask him about it." "Alright," she replied.

Noelle then glanced down at their intertwined fingers before turning to look out the window, the corners of En.
her mouth lifting up into a smile. They soon arrived outside of the police station.
Noelle got out of the car wearing a hat and a mask as she was worried about being photographed by media reporters.
But when she noticed that almost nobody was waiting outside the police station, she finally relaxed a bit.
She then headed into the police station and joined Liam to cooperate with the police's questioning session.
The whole session did not take very long.
Noelle soon walked out of the police station with Liam, only to find that the Liddells were already there, waiting outside.
