Chapter 285
In the past, Craig had always been the one giving orders to Noelle. He didn’t need to consult her, nor did he allow her to oppose him.
But now, he seemed like a helpless child, asking Noelle what to do.
Noelle closed her eyes for a moment before speaking again, “Who else knows about this for now?”
As soon as the words left her mouth, she realized her mistake in phrasing, so she quickly added, “No matter who knows, we must block the news. Otherwise, once the stock market opens tomorrow, Elm Group will truly be doomed!”
Craig remained silent while staring vacantly ahead.
“What about Julio’s family? They should still be here, right? You need to get someone to contact them immediately. Once Julio reaches them, call the police right away! Do you hear me?”
Noelle’s final words seemed to snap Craig back to reality, and he shakily reached for his phone.
Noelle didn’t look back, turning to walk away, but there was no sound behind her.
When she turned back in confusion, she found Craig’s phone had been smashed onto the floor, and he was slumped in his chair, unconscious.
Noelle had already contacted major news websites to suppress the internal news about Craig.
But in today’s age of the Internet, it was not just news sites she had to worry about but also the various” whistleblowers” and anonymous accounts.
told her At 5:00 am, Noelle was sitting beside Craig’s hospital bed, just finishing a call with Oliver, when someone t that Elm Group had already made it to the trending news.
The leak came from an anonymous account, which clearly laid out how Elm Group had been hollowed out from the inside, as well as the details of Craig’s stroke and hospitalization.
As soon as the news broke, there was an uproar online.
And by the time the stock market opened, within an hour, Elm Group had hit its limit down. If things continued at this rate, the company could collapse in less than a week.
If Noelle couldn’t see what was going on now, she would truly be a fool.
The words Hendrix had said that day echoed in her mind again and again. He had said that this was just the beginning.
Noelle had known that he was a crazy lunatic! He was really insane!
People from the company kept calling her. The news had already caused widespread panic within the company. The board and shareholders were demanding an explanation from her, and now all projects under Elm Group’s name had come to a halt.
Noelle had been on the phone all morning, and her voice turned hoarse from answering call after call.
She didn’t even notice when Dylan had arrived. It wasn’t until he handed her a water bottle that she looked up.
“Take a break,” he said softly.

Noelle stiffened, then quickly lifted her head.

Like how the story is progressing now but why is the author only releasing 3 chapters at a time? this is torture😩😩...
Woah chapters 41-45 is intense!! Good to see Noelle’s character who has come across as mostly detached actually express emotion....
I find Noelle’s character so frustrating, she comes across lacking any true emotion. The chapters where Rosie was missing was probably the most where we have seen some strong outward emotion shown. Dreading these next few chapters if she is going to do something drastic to “go find Seline” The author has taken us on a rollercoaster with these characters. The novel feels like it is at a stage now where they can come full circle....
A good change of pace and story in the last 10 chapters. Good to see the shift in Hendrix’s character (more patience) to win over Noelle and Rosie. Hope we start to see them warm up to him. Please no crazy twist where he loses them again. Have enjoyed this story and looking forward to its wrap up👨👩👧...
A good change of pace in the last 10 chapters. Also nice to see a shift in Hendrix’s character (more patience) to win Noelle and Rosie over. Hoping in these next few chapters we start to see Noelle and Rosie warm up to him. Please no crazy twist where he loses them again. Have enjoyed this story and looking forward to its wrap up 👨👩👧...
I have been in love with this novel but I don’t know how much patience I have to wait until the to finish line. Dear Author, can you atleast give us some idea about how long is this going to be or if there’s any turning point coming soon. And it would be great if you could upload at least 10 chapters at once. 5 chapters is making me more impatience with the anticipation of the further story of novel🙈...
I really hope there is a turning point in this story where Noelle starts to show some interest in Hendrix...
