No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 33

Chapter 33 

Noelle thought of Justin Parham, the transfer student from Yasnia they were talking about. He was one of the rich kids from Tuxbridge. She’d heard rumors that he had caused trouble at his previous school and was now laying low here. 

He was a flashy person known for driving luxury cars, wearing designer clothing, and his affinity for gaming. 

In Noelle’s previous life, Xenia had stolen her win in the gaming championship. Because of that, Justin had fallen for Xenia, and they eventually ended up dating. 

Smiling, Noelle stuffed the letters under her desk without even opening them. She also didn’t bother bringing up Justin asking for her number 

Xenia couldn’t hide her jealousy. She asked, “Noelle, aren’t you going to take a look at them?” 

“It’s nothing new to me.” Noelle used to get letters back in elementary school, too. That was before her parents‘ accident and Xenia’s appearance. 

Noelle’s indifferent tone stung Xenia, who felt that the former was being too smug. 

Envy clouded Xenia’s eyes. She recalled the submissive lamb Noelle used to be, confused about why she had changed so much. She couldn’t help worrying that Noelle would really steal Justin from her. 

When school was over, Noelle packed her bag and left immediately. Xenia hesitated for a while before eventually sneaking to Noelle’s desk and taking away all the letters. 

Meanwhile, Noelle was headed to the infirmary. She was planning to surprise Cedric, but he 

was nowhere to be found. 

Taking out her phone, she texted him, “My results are out! I got tenth place! I think I have a real shot at Yole University now.” 

She was overjoyed and couldn’t wait to share her excitement with him. She happily awaited his reply when someone else’s voice broke out. 

“I heard you did very well this time, Noelle. Congratulations.

Noelle lifted her head to see Frank standing before her. Her smile instantly vanished. “It’s no big deal.” 

Frank handed her a gift box. “I picked this out to congratulate you. Didn’t you used to say that you like this jewelry brand?”
