StarNovelChapter 487 When Cedric met Noelle's gaze, he almost lost his balance for a moment. Her eyes were bloodshot, seemingly filled with hatred.
That look in her eyes felt like a knife stabbing into his chest, causing him immense pain. He found that it was hard to even breathe.
Cedric carefully wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes. "He will pay for this." However, they had already paid the price.
Noelle quickly regained her composure and replied, "I have to find out the truth about the car accident from then on." "I'll help you with the investigation," Cedric replied.
He made up his mind. Since Xenia's father was still alive, he realized that the accident was not as simple as he had thought. He began to wonder if the Merlock family was really innocent.

Noelle looked at the clock and said, "Shall we start sparring practice?" He turned around and brought out a box. "I got this when I was on my business trip. I hope you like them." She opened the box and found a pair of red boxing gloves. "It looks good!" Noelle had been using the gym's gloves but had not yet bought her own. She had planned to purchase a pair of boxing gloves once she got better at the sport, but she did not expect Cedric to have already bought one for her. "Do you like them?" Cedric asked.
"I like them! This is a great gift," Noelle replied. She immediately put them on and found that it was a perfect fit. As he stared at her smile, his eyes becfilled with a mix of emotions. He eventually spoke up with a heavy heart. "Try them on and see how they feel." Noelle was too focused on the gift to notice the deep sorrow in his eyes.
After sparring practice, Noelle was so exhausted that she lay flat on the floor. She looked at her gloves and said, "Having my own boxing gloves really does feel different. These are so much better." Cedric considerately brought her a towel and a bottle of water and even helped to wipe the sweat off her neck. Noelle suddenly reached out and cupped his face. "Cedric, I just realized that there's something on your face." "What is it?" he asked.
"I realized that you're kinda handsome," she replied.
She realized that Cedric did not react much, so she cleared her throat and explained, "That was supposed to be a cheesy pick-up line. Ever heard of them?" What was supposed to be a cheesy pick-up line seemed to have been turned into a ljoke.
Cedric stared at her face and lowered his head to kiss her on the lips. That kiss was sudden, but it was even more passionate than their last.
Noelle wrapped her arms around his neck and closed her eyes, her eyelashes trembling slightly.
The light above them cast a glow over them. Cedric opened his eyes and stared at Noelle in front of him, his gaze filled with deep affection He had to admit that he got afraid when he cface to face with Noelle.
It was not until they heard the sound of a nearer moving their tools nearby that Noelle finally opened her eyes from embarrassment. She then locked eyes with Cedric's deep gaze.
She felt that Cedric was not in a good mood somehow.

Cedric moved away and handed her a bottle of water. "Let's Des for a bit ve and then change our clothes. Do you want to grab a late-night snack after?" Noelle took a sip of water and then checked the time. "It's already getting late.
Let's skip the late-night snack. I'm not that hungry anyway." She then looked up at him and asked, "What's wrong, Cedric?" "Nothing," he replied.
"Liar. You were obviously not in a good mood just now." Noelle grew a little worried, wondering if he was facing skind of trouble.
Cedric used a towel to help wipe off the sweat on her neck and replied, "You must be seeing things. Why would I not be in a good mood when I'm on a date with you?" He was good at hiding his feelings as well as adjusting his tone.
Noelle looked at him closer and saw nothing unusual, so she did not press op further.
