NovelOnlineChapter 436 That was why Cedric had cut his meeting short and rushed back.
Noelle pressed her face against his palm. "Have I ever cried that badly before?" She didn't remember ever crying like that.
Cedric pursed his lips. She was crying during that car accident.
Noelle had cried just as heartbreakingly when he pulled her out of the wreckage. She even bit him when he refused to let her get near the burning vehicle. It seemed Noelle had forgotten about it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCedric's hand felt warm against her skin, his gaze dark and unreadable as he locked eyes with her. Just as he leaned down, Noelle straightened up again and cleared her throat. "You probably haven't eaten yet either. I'm hungry." "...too." He took her and gave her a look.
Noelle glanced down at their joined hands and blurted out, "What are we?" Cedric tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear. "I'll take you somewhere once you're discharged." "Where?" Noelle was curious.
"It's a secret. We should make things official soon." Cedric smirked.
Her eyes flickered at his words. "Make things official?" So, were they finally going to be together? Even though things had changed between them in the past few days, neither of them had directly addressed it. She hadn't expected Cedric to be this considerate.
After dinner, Noelle still didn't tell him about Xenia's father. It was all just speculation for now.
The next day, Tilly brought back the investigation results. "We lost him, Ms. Liddell. He's extremely cautious. And we couldn't find any records of him either. It's as if he doesn't exist." Noelle was disappointed. It was as if he didn't exist. Well, Sean was supposed to be dead, according to official records.
Upon seeing Xenia's swollen face from the beating, Noelle couldn't help but suspect Xenia was trying to find a way out.
After all these years, Xenia had never slipped up once. She had always claimed to be an orphan, living in the Liddell family and enjoying the sluxurious treatment as Noelle.
Knowing Xenia, she would never have sought out her father unless she was desperate. It would ruin her position in the Liddell family if anyone discovered that her father was still alive.
Noelle remained calm. "Looks like Blake's attack scared Xenia enough to make her seek help." Everything was falling into place. Xenia had finally slipped up.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNoelle needed to find a way to force Xenia into contacting her father more frequently. That would be the best way to gather evidence and catch them.
Just then, she received another message from Blake. "Has Xenia apologized yet? If you're not satisfied, I'll keep beating her until you are." He hadn't changed at all and was now treating Xenia the sway as he did with her.
Suddenly, Noelle realized something.
Xenia had gone to find Sean right after Blake's beating. An idea formed in her mind. She picked up her phone and replied: "She hasn't apologized."
Blake's mood lifted when he saw her reply. If Noelle was willing to respond, did that hat mean that things between them could go back to normal as long as Xenia apologized?
Just then, he saw Xenia carrying a bottle into Frank's hospital room. His expression turned unpleasant. Without hesitation, he stormed over and grabbed Xenia by the hair.
He snapped, "Xenia, I told you to apologize to Noelle yesterday! Why idn't you? Day you have a death wish?"
