No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 712

Cedric's network of connections was far more valuable than that of the Liddell family.

Bruce quickly tried to smooth things over. "Today's exchange event has come to an end. If there are any future events, we'll be sure to invite everyone again."

Xenia felt incredibly uncomfortable. When she saw mutual friends posting Noelle's speech on Instagram, she'd nearly been driven crazy by jealousy.

She believed she could also give a speech as a representative, which was why she convinced Donovan to bring her along today. But she hadn't expected that just one sentence from Cedric would make Bruce back down.

Damn it!

Xenia turned to look at Noelle sharply. "Noelle, are you afraid I'll steal your spotlight? Is that why you had Mr. Greene stop me on purpose?"

Noelle let out a scornful laugh. "You think I'd be afraid of a plagiarizing mutt like you stealing my spotlight?"

At the word "plagiarizing," Xenia's face went red with anger, and her head spun. She was about to deny it when Donovan stopped her.

It was only then that Xenia calmed down. Right now, Noelle had Cedric backing her. If they ever offended him, he could destroy the Liddell family with a snap of his fingers.

In such a critical moment, Xenia had no choice but to hold in her anger.

Noelle gave the Liddell family a cold glance before turning to leave. She'd thought they were here for some strategic reason, only to realize they came just to cause trouble for her.

As Xenia watched Noelle leave with Cedric following closely right beside her, she felt deeply agitated. "Donovan, look at how outrageous Noelle has become."

"Bear with her for now. Let's wait until the project succeeds. Plus, I heard that Mrs. Greene Senior doesn't approve of their relationship. Noelle is going to have a tough time."

Xenia's face immediately lit up with glee. She knew Noelle would sooner or later be abandoned by the Greene family.

"Mr. Liddell, what a coincidence to meet you here."
