Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 5620

Roxy watched as Jolie drank the coffee and asked, "What exactly did you say to Noelle when you met her? Were you too arrogant? Did you get on her nerves? Was that why she refused to talk to you and had you thrown out instead?"

Having dealt with Noelle for several years, Roxy knew her reasonably well.

Noelle was cold and could seem indifferent to everyone, but she was a woman with principles. If she had agreed to meet Jolie, she would not have ordered someone to throw Jolie out without saying anything.

Jolie must have been too arrogant. Roxy specifically told her to talk to Noelle, explain that she was in love with Laurence, and say she wanted to compete with Noelle for his love fairly and squarely. That would have been enough to get under Noelle's skin.

However, Jolie looked down on Noelle, and because she was Roxy's best friend, she probably treated Noelle however she wanted. Someone with Noelle's temperament would never tolerate such disrespect.

"Ahem…"

Jolie choked on her coffee.

Roxy quickly pulled out two tissues and handed them to her.

Once Jolie stopped coughing, she took the tissues and wiped her mouth. "Roxy, you know what kind of person I am. I'm gentle, kind, and always considerate of others."

"Oh, please. Don't put on that act in front of me. I know exactly how you can be."

Jolie let out a sheepish smile and admitted, "Fine, I was a little arrogant. I didn't take Noelle seriously and provoked her on purpose. So, she walked away and ignored me."

Roxy glared at Jolie.

It was just as she had suspected.
