The Triplets My Ex Never Knew About novel Chapter 130

Chapter 130: Chapter 130: The Results of the Last Paternity Test Are Out

Noelle Lockwood grit her teeth!

’She was a huge star, the darling daughter of the Lockwood family. She was going to marry into the Sloan family in the future. Her reputation couldn’t be ruined...’

’That’s right, there was no evidence. No evidence for anything Rosalie Carter did! When she had given Rosalie her orders in person, she’d specifically made her leave her phone outside, so Rosalie had no recording.’

’Yara had no proof!’

But when Noelle Lockwood saw the growing suspicion in the eyes of the audience, she grit her teeth and suddenly collapsed, falling straight to the floor!

"Noelle!" Rose Lowell cried out in alarm.

The scene immediately erupted into chaos.

Rose Lowell wailed, "Noelle hasn’t been able to eat or sleep for days because of this fire! She has to take sleeping pills every night just to get some rest. She’s been visiting all the victims to discuss compensation, and you... you bully her like this! SOB, SOB..."

Her fans were also filled with righteous indignation, erupting in an agitated clamor.

Estelle Lockwood scoffed, her gaze shifting thoughtfully.

’She knew she couldn’t definitively pin the blame on Noelle today, but that wasn’t her goal. After all, there was still another fire she had yet to settle the score with Noelle over.’

’This time, Noelle had pushed her manager out to take the fall.’

’So, who would Noelle throw to the wolves next?’

Estelle Lockwood turned and walked away. Nathaniel Sloan shot a cold glance at Noelle on the ground before turning to follow Estelle.

As Rose Lowell continued her dramatic wailing, the crowd slowly dispersed.

...

「Outside the press conference venue.」

Nathaniel Sloan caught up to Estelle. "Miss Lockwood, were you satisfied with my performance today?"

Estelle Lockwood stopped and arched an eyebrow. "Performance?"

Nathaniel Sloan offered a gentle, refined smile. "I said I believe you."

"Oh..." ’So that’s what he was referring to.’

Estelle Lockwood’s tone was laden with meaning. "Mr. Sloan, my satisfaction is not important. What’s important is whether the person you care about will ever get the chance to be satisfied."

’If the Kendricks hadn’t saved her five years ago, she would be long dead. How would Nathaniel Sloan have the chance to ask her if she was ’satisfied’ now?’

"And one more thing."

Estelle added with a pointed look, "Although Rosalie Carter is the mastermind for now, I haven’t forgotten about the flood of press releases these past few days, all deliberately designed to turn public opinion against me. I haven’t settled that score yet."

With that, Estelle got into her car, which sped away, leaving a cloud of dust in its wake and giving Nathaniel no chance to respond.

Nathaniel Sloan rubbed his fingertips. ’Yes,’ he thought. ’This score is far from settled.’

...

「The Lockwood Residence.」

Noelle Lockwood only "woke up" with a faint groan after she was back at the Lockwood residence.

She looked at Rose Lowell and Austin Lockwood, her eyes brimming with tears. "Dad, Mom..."

"Oh, my precious daughter, don’t talk. That damn Yara... she just had to target you..."

Noelle kept up her benevolent act. "Mom, Yara is a victim in this, too. It’s just... my right ear. I’m afraid it’s permanently damaged."

"An internationally renowned ear specialist is coming to Crestfall in a few days. When they arrive, I’ll take Noelle for a consultation."

Austin Lockwood spoke up.

Rose Lowell had also heard of this ear specialist. Everyone spoke of the doctor with reverence, and Rose had felt the same way at first. But when she chanced to learn that the famous specialist was a woman, her respect turned to contempt.
