Noticing Emma's reaction, Noelle replied, "That's right. I'm from the Liddell family."
Emma anxiously pressed on, "Is Donovan your older brother?"
Noelle nodded. Though she didn't want to admit it, she had no choice, with Xenia standing right there.
Emma let out a helpless laugh. The young lady Cedric liked turned out to be the survivor of that car accident!
What kind of twisted fate was this?
Noelle quickly helped steady her. "Are you alright?"
Nearby, Xenia huffed. "Noelle, didn't | tell you to bring the desserts you've removed? | have to entertain Mrs.
Parham, and | don't have tto do it myself!"
Noelle ignored her and continued supporting Emma. "Lethelp you to the lounge so you can rest."
Xenia snapped, "Are you deaf? Mrs. Parham is our most important guest today!"
Noelle shoved her aside. "Get lost."
Caught off guard, Xenia fell to the floor. Then, she scrambled up and rushed off to complain to Donovan.
She was certain Noelle was doomed. Donovan valued his relationship with Brittany, and he'd definitely be
furious.
Meanwhile, Noelle helped Emma into the lounge and poured a cup of warm water for the latter. "Are you sure
you don't need a doctor?"
"I'm fine. I'm just a little low on blood sugar." Emma cup with a random

Right now, she was utterly shaken and could barely calm herself down. She'd never expected to meet someone
from that car accident again, and what shocked her more was that Cedric was interested in the girl who survived
the accident back then.
Noelle brought over spastries and set them on the table. "Have sfood to regain your energy."
Emma's eyes reddened slightly. "Thank you, dear. We're really fated, aren't we?"
She hadn't planned to attend this event, but since Brittany was coming, she figured she'd come, too. Little did
she know that the Cantrell family's son-in-law was from the family of that tragic car accident.
Noelle smiled. "Today's charity sales event was put together a little hastily. | hope you won't mind if there are any
shortcomings."
"Did you organize this event?"
"Not entirely. | stepped in only at the last minute to make adjustments. This charity foundation was established
by my parents, after all, and | couldn't let others turn it into a joke."
Emma's hand trembled. "Your parents founded this? I've never heard of it before."
"They were from Aldoria and were passionate about charity work.
Unfortunately, they passed away in a car accident years ago, and the
i.ne
foundation has been neglected since then. It's only been revived in the past couple of years."
The mention of the car accident made Emma's heart feel unbearably heavy. After a long silence, she asked,
"How have you been after
losing your parents? | heard you brothers treated their only sister well and sent her to Yole University's business
school."
Noelle let out a bitter laugh. "The one sent to business school wasn't me; it was
my adopted sister. She's the daughter of the driver involved in the car accident. You met her just now."
"How could this be?"
