No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 28

Chapter 29 

Noelle raised an eyebrow defiantly. She said, “Oh I always keep the fact that Xenia’s father saved me in mind.” There was no way she could forget. 

She then refused to continue the conversation and proceeded to shut the door. 

This left Frank standing outside, staring at the necklace in his hand. Regret welled up as he replayed his earlier words. However, he felt that Noelle was somewhat to blame since she had deliberately provoked him. 

She was a clever girl, so there was no way she wouldn’t have understood what he meant. He wondered if she had deliberately done that because she was still mad.

Just then, she received a message. When she clicked on the sender’s profile, she realized it was 

Lucas‘ account. 

The message read, “Hey, do you remember how you snatched my boss kill last time?” 

Of course she did. She’d done it on purpose, after all. 

She ignored him, and a second message arrived. “How about joining a professional team? Feel free to negotiate your terms. I think you have potential, so you should get proper training in a team!” 

Noelle found his message deeply ironic. She wondered if Lucas had finally realized how
