StarNovelChapter 390 Noelle coughed somewhat awkwardly. "A doctor isn't necessary." "Ms. Liddell, please. This isn't the tto joke around." "I'm not joking. I knocked him out. He took my phone and wouldn't letleave," Noelle confessed somewhat unnaturally.
James sighed in relief. "He wasn't trying to stop you. He just wanted you to stay a little longer." "But they'd never asked if I wanted that. They'd never asked if I was willing to stay with them." James gave a bitter smile. "I understand, but Mr. Frank wouldn't listen no matter how much I tried to reason with him. There's no point in regretting it now." Noelle grew irritated knowing she couldn't leave.
Frank regained consciousness not long after. His eyes lit up with delight after seeing Noelle sit on the couch. "You're still here, Noelle." Noelle coldly replied, "I'm going hto get srest." "Sure. Have something to eat before you leave. I'll have James send you hafterward." "I lose my appetite when you're around. I just want to leave now." Noelle snapped. Her patience was running thin.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFrank looked hurt. He knew Noelle had knocked him out earlier.
James quickly stepped in. "Mr. Blake's men are guarding the door. Let Ms. Liddell go. Forcing her to stay will do more harm than good." Trying to force kindness onto someone would just backfire.
Frank finally nodded. "Alright. Letsend you home." "No need." "You can't leave if I don't send you hmyself. You know how Blake is." Noelle had no choice but to reluctantly agree. The situation left her feeling deeply irritated.
When Noelle and Frank walked out of the ward, none of the bodyguards had the guts to step in and stop them. James drove Noelle back. The latter decided there was no point in hiding her address since Blake knew where she lived.
Frank tried to initiate a conversation throughout the drive, but Noelle remained silent and stared out the window. Frank sighed as he remembered how talkative Noelle used to be. After a long day at work, she'd always chatter away and share amusing stories to cheer him up.
How had they ended up at this point as siblings? The car pulled up at the entrance of her apartment.
Frank carefully said, "I'll make sure Xenia stays away from you, Noelle. She won't harm you anymore." "You do realize that Xenia isn't the only one who's hurt me, don't you?" Noelle shot him a sarcastic look before getting out of the car.
As soon as she stepped out, she spotted a familiar figure. "Cedric?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCedric turned around and tucked his phone away when he saw her. He walked toward her hurriedly and NO asked in a voice filled with concern, "Why didn't you answer your phone or reply to my texts?" "There was a sudden emergency." Noelle hadn't expected Blake to kidnap and send her to the hospital.
Cedric studied her intently and sensed she wasn't telling the truth.
When Frank noticed Cedric, he quickly got out of the car ando m followed. The two men locked eyes, and the air was thick with hostility. Noelle shot Frank a cold look. "Leave." "I know I've made mistakes, Noelle. I was blind and clouded by my selfishness. I've made tons of mistakes."
Cedric commented rather sarcastically, "Just a few words of apology, and you think you've done enough, huh? Isn't the foster daughter still living comfortably with the Liddells?" "And let's not forget that the surveillance footage was destroyed. Donovan didn't believe what I said." Frank looked troubled. "I can't drive Xenia out now, Noelle. Her father died saving Mom and Dad, after all. He saved your life too." Cedric coldly countered, "How are you so sure that the driver saved Noelle's life?"
