No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 824

Frank wondered if Sean had said something so shocking that it made Donovan cough up blood and faint. What kind of news could it be that even Donovan could not handle?

As far as he had known about Donovan, whatever it was that could make him cough up blood in response must have been extremely serious.

He looked at Noelle and asked, "What exactly happened?"

Noelle looked up at Frank and replied, "Why don't you ask him yourself when he wakes up?"

She then turned to Wyatt and frowned. "Why are you here? Where's Xenia?"

"Xenia's doing her prenatal checkup. Why are you asking about her? She has nothing to do with what's going on right now," Wyatt replied.

Noelle's expression shifted instantly. "I told you to keep an eye on her at all times! Have you gone deaf or something?!"

Wyatt did not take it seriously at all. "What's your problem, Noelle? She's just having a checkup! There'll be someone watching after her anyway. What's the big deal?"

Noelle pushed him away in his wheelchair. "We need to find her, now!"

The Merlock family had been waiting for an opportunity to take Xenia away so that they could use her to threaten Sean.

They may not know whether Sean actually cared about Xenia or not, but they would still possess some leverage so long as they had Xenia with them.

Wyatt replied, "Let me go, Noelle! Have you lost your mind? What are you so paranoid about? Xenia wouldn't just run off all of a sudden!"

But Noelle did not believe his words. She had a bad feeling about all of this.

Frank chased up after the two of them. "Don't worry, Noelle. I've already arranged for bodyguards to follow after Xenia and Wyatt. Everything has been fine for the past few days."

Noelle would only be at ease when she saw Xenia with her own eyes. "But Wyatt never left her side for the past few days, did he? It's different this time."

They all immediately rushed downstairs to the obstetrician-gynecologist department.

"Frank, even if I wasn't around, you've already assigned bodyguards to Xenia, haven't you? Besides, if someone had come to specifically take her away, it wouldn't really matter whether I was there or not, no?"

Wyatt was not about to admit that Xenia's disappearance was his fault.

Noelle turned to Frank and said, "Have our men search the area. She probably wouldn't have gone far if she had just run off on her own. What I'm really afraid of is that—"

What she feared the most was that Xenia was taken away by the Merlock family. If that were the case, then it would be impossible to find Xenia ever again.

Frank immediately ordered his men to search for Xenia before turning back to Noelle. "You believe that it was the Merlocks who took her?"

Wyatt chimed in, "Frank, you gotta find Xenia no matter what! She's carrying my child!"

Noelle snorted and said, "If it really is the Merlocks that did this, they'll make sure that we won't escalate this to the police and instead force us to settle this privately."

Wyatt immediately blurted out, "Then let's just settle it privately!"
