No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 520

Noelle sneered at Xenia's pitiful act. "I hope you won't do something like this again, lest you suffer from the consequences of your own actions once more."

Just now, in front of an entire crowd, Xenia had deliberately picked up a dessert from the ground and given it to Noelle to eat.

But now, karma had come full circle for Xenia. It was a classic case of shooting herself in her own foot.

Emma looked at Noelle and spoke gently. "So long as you deem that this is ample punishment. Noelle, I already knew that you were a good person when we last met."

Donovan was surprised. "Noelle, have you met Mrs. Greene before?"

It was no wonder that Emma had been so protective of Noelle, he thought.

Noelle looked at Donovan and replied, "It was back when Blake beat me up so bad that I got hospitalized. I had run into Mrs. Greene at the hospital."

"Yes, and Noelle had helped me out once back then at the hospital," Emma replied.

She then turned to Donovan and continued, "I hope that you will all treat Noelle fairly. I get along with her quite well, so if I ever find out that the Liddells are mistreating her, I will personally come to settle the matter."

Noelle was surprised that Emma would defend her so strongly.

Donovan was even more surprised than she was. He replied politely. "Don't worry, Mrs. Greene. Noelle's my only sister; of course, I would treat her well.

"Everything that happened just now was just a misunderstanding. We've already reconciled, isn't that right, Noelle?"

Noelle turned to Emma and said, "Thank you for attending today's charity sales event, Mrs. Greene. I really appreciate it."

Emma patted Noelle's hand and replied, "Then we'll be taking our leave for now. Oh, yes, let's exchange contacts. We should meet up and chat over a cup of tea sometime.

Noelle was slightly taken aback before taking out her phone to add Emma on WhatsApp.

After that, Emma finally left the venue.

Brittany scanned Noelle curiously. She felt that Emma was being exceptionally kind to her. She felt that something was off, but she could not put a finger on it.

After both Emma and Brittany had left, a certain silhouette peeked out from outside the room before making a call to Cedric. "Cedric, Mom just left."
