Chapter 466 "Oh, so you can use the Cantrell family's influence to push Noelle around, but I can't mess with you a little? Do you seriously think I don't know why you got engaged to the Cantrells' crippled daughter," Magnus said casually. The moment those words left his mouth, Donovan's expression darkened. On the other hand, Noelle stiffened at the word 'engaged.' She suddenly remembered that Donovan had a fiancée back in Yasnia. Whether in her past life or this one, he had barely mentioned her. So, the Cantrell family's daughter had a disability? It was no wonder why Donovan never talked about it. Donovan glared at Magnus, clearly pissed. "That's none of your damn business." Magnus smirked. "I just can't stand guys like you, so yeah, I'm making it my business. What are you going to do about it?" Donovan's jaw tightened, his face going pale with fury, but he could not do a damn thing about Magnus. Instead, he turned to Noelle, his voice low. "I really underestimated you." Xenia, ever the instigator, chimed in with a sickly sweet smile. "Noelle always had a lot of friends. Even Alfred seems to be quite close to her." Magnus' face immediately turned cold. That was a clear jab at Noelle, implying she had a messy personal life. Without missing a beat, he pulled out his phone and looked straight at Xenia. "Do you want to exchange contacts?" Xenia blinked in surprise, looking downright flattered. Her heart pounding, she quickly pulled out her phone. She wondered if Magnus had finally realized what kind of woman Noelle really was.

But before she could do anything, Magnus pulled his phone back with a smirk. "Damn, you really thought I was serious? Who the hell do you think you are? "You probably hand out your number to any guy who asks. Guess that means your personal life is even looser than I thought." Xenia's face went stiff, her hands frozen mid-air. On the other hand, Donovan could not hold back anymore and chimed in, "Magnus, don't you think that was a little too much?" Magnus retorted casually, "Oh, but when this bitch hinted that Noelle sleeps around, that was totally fine? "You think I missed that? I'm just giving her a taste of her own medicine." His words were as sharp as knives, and Xenia could not take it anymore-her eyes turned red as she actually started crying. She did not understand why all the men from the Greene family were so ruthless.

Meanwhile, Noelle suddenly felt a lot better. She could not help but think Magnus' way of insulting people reminded her of Cedric.

She turned back to Donovan, her voice dripping with mockery. "So it turns out this is how you pulled all of this off: by using your fiancée's. family connections. But the way you made it sound, you acted like you did it all on your own." Donovan's face turned an ugly shade of red. He looked like he had just been publicly humiliated, and he had no choice but to storm off, dragging Xenia with him.

Noelle watched him leave, shaking her head. "I really didn't expect his fiancée to be from the Cantrell family." Magnus nodded. "Yeah, she was born with a disability-one of her legs is shorter than the other. The Cantrells never let her be seen in public, so barely anyone in high society has ever met her." That explained a lot. Noelle had always wondered why Donovan never once mentioned his fiancée in her past life or even brought her to meet the Liddells—now, it made sense.

Donovan was the kind of man who cared about his pride more than om anything. He probably thought being engaged to a girl with a disability was humiliating, like people would see him as sgold-digging freeloader. She chuckled, shaking her head. Just minutes ago, Donovan had been acting all high and mighty, threatening her like he was untouchable.

Magnus added, "I heard a while back

that the Cantrells were looking for someone who'll agree to their matrilocal arrangement someone easy to control. They kept things tight-lipped, so no one knew who it was. But damn, turns out it was the Liddells' golden boy all along."

Noelle raised an eyebrow. "Are you sure the Cantrells were booking for matrilocal arrangement?" The a content is on novelenglish.net! It was unbelievable for someone like Donovan to agree to something like that.
