No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 1275

Upon hearing the commotion behind her, Noelle turned around and saw a woman in a red bikini. The woman was wearing sunglasses. She had long wavy hair, a fair and beautiful face, as well as long legs.

Even though the woman had sunglasses on, Noelle immediately recognized the seductive woman to be none other than Laura. Noelle could only wonder why Laura was here.

Cedric took Noelle's hand and said, "Let's go. We shouldn't stare at strangers."

Noelle had a feeling that Laura's sudden appearance was no coincidence. It was clear that Laura was not here for a vacation.

Noelle did not want anything unpleasant to happen during their vacation. She turned around and left for the private hot spring with Cedric.

As soon as they got into the water, Noelle saw a streak of red color approaching her.

Laura stood beside the hot spring and said, "Oh my, what a coincidence. Are the two of you here to soak in the hot spring as well?"

Noelle gave Laura a half-smile. "Isn't that obvious? Why else would we even be here? What? Do you think we're here to look for men?"

Laura gritted her teeth and then immediately turned to look at Cedric with her most dazzling smile. She stepped into the water and spoke with a seductive tone.

"We're all friends, aren't we? Why don't we soak together?"

Noelle did not expect Laura to be so shameless as to force herself into the hot spring with them. The next second, Noelle was pulled out of the water by Cedric.

Noelle turned to look at him in surprise and noticed that his expression had turned very grim. She wondered what was going on.

Laura continued with a pitiful tone, "Are you guys avoiding me or something?"

Cedric replied coldly, "Yeah, you made the water dirty." His reply stabbed straight into Laura's heart like an invisible dagger.

Laura immediately stood up and replied, "Cedric, isn't that a bit too much?"

Cedric pulled Noelle to leave, but Laura blocked their path. She was getting slightly erratic. "I'm already an executive at PZ Group now, and I'll become a shareholder at the start of next year. I'll also become financially secure by then. I'm no worse than both of you."

A flicker of guilt flashed across Laura's face. "I was forced to do all those things."

"If you think that's supposed to help you or whatever, why don't you go and tell the judge that your mother was also forced to do what she had done as well? Maybe they'll even let her out."

Noelle's tone turned cold as she continued, "Your entire family is shameless by nature. You hurt others and then try to guilt-trip them about it. Cedric's already being merciful enough by sparing you for old times' sake. If it were me and you had hurt my parents instead, I'd make you pay with your life!"

Laura took a few steps back. "But I—"

Noelle replied, "Just shut up already." She then held onto Cedric's arm and continued, "Let's go. There's no point in letting irrelevant people ruin our mood."

Laura stood still as she watched Cedric leave. Furious, she stormed back into the hot spring and sat down in the water.

She was determined to ensure that Noelle's life was ruined once she received her promotion the following year.
