No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 516

Xenia was furious. She had put on natural-looking makeup specifically for that day. She immediately started crying and turned to Donovan for help.

"Donovan, look! I told you that Noelle is definitely friends with this old hag! I can't believe Noelle even asked for help from an outsider to harm me!"

Donovan's expression shifted drastically when he recognized Emma. He had never expected that the guest who had been resting in the lounge earlier was actually Emma.

He immediately slapped Xenia and said, "What the hell are you talking about? Apologize, now!"

Xenia still believed that she was wronged. "Clearly, this old hag attacked me first, Donovan! Why should I apologize to her?"

Donovan felt a headache creeping up to his temples. He grabbed onto Xenia's wrist and ordered, "I'm telling you to apologize! Right now! Immediately!"

Xenia was startled by Donovan's furious expression. "Donovan, why are you being so angry?"

As far as she knew, Emma was just some random woman who assaulted her. She did not think that Emma could possibly be someone important.

Brittany walked up and linked her arm with Emma affectionately. "Mrs. Greene! I haven't been able to find you until now. I thought that you had already left because of how shabby-looking this charity sales event was!"

"I wasn't feeling well earlier, so I was resting at the lounge," Emma's tone was filled with sarcasm. "As for the Liddell family's apology, I believe that I'm not worthy of such a thing."

Donovan's expression shifted through various emotions as he hurriedly explained, "I sincerely apologize, Mrs. Greene. I had no idea that you would be present today. Please forgive us for our lack of hospitality."

Xenia felt as if her mind had exploded, her lips trembling as she spoke up, "Donovan, you're saying that she's Mrs. Greene?"

He turned to Xenia and replied, "That's right. Do you finally realize the trouble that you've caused me?"

She nearly lost her balance after hearing Donovan's reply. Nobody had told her that Emma would be attending the charity sales event that day!

She began to panic, thinking about what to do next. She wondered if she had just offended someone that she should not have.

Donovan quickly explained, "My younger sister is still young and immature, Mrs. Greene. So, she often speaks without thinking things through. Please don't take offense to her remarks."
