No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 969

After waking up the next day, Noelle immediately contacted Jeremy and said, "Are you free today? Let's go to the detention center."

"Has Cedric agreed to testify?" Jeremy asked.

"Yes."

Jeremy twirled his pen as he asked, "How did you convince him to help?"

"I didn't really have to convince him. I just told him about it, and he agreed."

"That easy?"

Jeremy found it hard to believe. He could not but wonder if Cedric was still the same person that he knew. He continued, "Alright, but we'll need Cedric to go to the police station himself. Otherwise, Mr. Quigley will not believe what you said."

Noelle fell silent for a moment as she realized that what he said made sense.

She replied, "I'll tell him about it."

"It's fine. I'll contact him as your lawyer," Jeremy said.

Noelle suddenly remembered the tension between Jeremy and Cedric and said, "I'll do it myself. It's just easier this way."

Jeremy sounded a little disappointed as he replied, "Alright, but if you can get him to go to the police station today, just let me know, and I'll come with you."

"Alright."

Noelle hesitated after hanging up. She wondered about how she could reach out to Cedric.

Just then, Mia returned to the dorm in a different set of clothes. She held up the breakfast in her hand and said, "You're up already? Let's have breakfast."

Grace then asked, "Mia, tell us the truth. Did you spend the night with Eugene?"

On the other end, Cedric was also staring at his phone, wondering what it was that she wanted.

After waiting for some time, he decided to just call her directly.

Upon seeing her phone ringing with a call from Cedric, Noelle cleared her throat and answered, "Hello? Am I bothering you at work?"

After hearing her voice, he glanced at the senior executives still giving their morning reports in his office. He then stood up and walked over to the floor-to-ceiling window, and replied calmly, "It's fine. I'm not very busy right now."

The executives exchanged looks at each other, wondering how it could be considered not very busy if they were giving him a report first thing in the morning.

Robin then waved his hand and signaled for everyone to leave. There was no need to guess who was on the other end of the line. At a time like this, only a call from Noelle herself could get Cedric to make such an exception.

Noelle held onto her phone and said, "It's about yesterday. You agreed to testify in court, remember? You'll need to go to the police station for that. Otherwise, Sean will probably not believe us."
