A maid immediately spotted Noelle right after she parked her car. The said maid did not greet Noelle. Instead, she hurried back into the house. 

r way there, 

Noelle saw the maid scurrying inside, but she didn’t mind. She got out of the car. Before she made her way she specially bought a few gifts. After all, she was there to apologize“. 

The moment Noelle stepped foot in the house, the same maid who ran into the house to alert everyone showed up and smiled at her. “Ms. Noelle, you’re here.” 

Noelle gave her a nod. 

“Noelle!” Sandra hurried down the stairs in a white dress. Her curls cascaded down her shoulders. She looked ravishing with that innocent look. 

Though Sandra was calling out to Noelle, her eyes searched behind her. Shock crossed her face when she realized. Noelle had come alone. “Noelle, did you drive here alone?” 

“Yes.” Noelle fixed her gaze on Sandra’s arm. “Are you feeling better?” 

“I’m fine…” Sandra tried to keep her feelings under control Soon, she changed the topic. “Mom’s upstairs. She’s… still a little mad. Do you want to check on her?” 

“Sure,” Noelle readily agreed, much to Sandra’s surprise. 

Before she could speak, Noelle had passed her by 

Matilda was arranging flowers in the second–floor greenhouse when Noelle approached her. “Mom.” 

She merely grunted in response. 

“I brought you something. It’s on the first floor.” Noelle ignored Matilda’s attitude and went ahead. “I acted rashly yesterday. Anyway, I have no clue about the specifics of the situation, so I sent someone to get the mall security footage.” 

Sandra, who followed tightly behind Noelle, overheard Noelle’s statement right when she entered the greenhouse. Her expression shifted, and she rushed over to Noelle. “Noelle, why did you ask the mall for the security footage?” 

“You were hurt, weren’t you? It’s only fair that we get to the bottom of it.” 

“But I’m fine now. There’s really no need to make a fuss out of yesterday’s fight.” Sandra’s eyes drifted to Matilda while she addressed Noelle. 

This time, Matilda did not side with Sandra. She asked Noelle, “Where’s the footage? 

“They’ll send it to me soon. 

“Mom!” Sandra hurried over to Matilda. “Let’s not make a fuss. Look! I’m perfectly fine. I don’t want to trouble 

everyone. 

“It’s no trouble at all,” Noelle quipped. “It doesn’t take much effort to ask for the security footage.” 

Sandra finally fell silent. She stared at Noelle. “Noelle, are you suspecting me?”
