No longer a pushover
Chapter 19
Chapter 19
Noelle stood in place, looking at the others expressionlessly. She wondered if the Liddell brothers really thought she was still the old Noelle.
They never asked her opinion, acting like letting it go was a huge favor to her, even though she didn't care at all.
Lucas felt diffident. He avoided looking Noelle in the eye while waiting for Frank to step in.
On the authority as their older brother, Frank continued, "You've proven yourself in this repechage, Noelle. No one will be able to replace your position on the team in the future."
He figured that his words would put Noelle at ease.
Xenia's expression darkened instantly. She was beyond frustrated to see how easily Noelle had taken her spot away despite working so hard. Although she had no natural talent, she had put in just as much effort as Noelle. Lucas looked at Noelle with an equally hopeful gaze. Although he said nothing, he hoped she would join their team. He figured that she shouldn't be sulking anymore now that he had given her an out. Noelle's gaze was cold when she replied, "I refuse."
Lucas became somewhat agitated. "Why?"
Noelle replied, "I joined the repechage this time because they insulted my parents, not because I wanted to join the team."
"But you've clearly been practicing in secret. Wasn't it just so you could return?"
They thought that it was impossible for Noelle to become this skilled overnight. They figured she must have been secretly practicing just so she could join the team.
Lucas refused to believe what she said, staring at her intensely.
Noelle's expression was neutral. Her gaze was cold when she replied, "It wasn't."
Lucas' heart sank. He blurted, "Do I have to personally apologize to you for you to forgive me, Noelle?"
Noelle stopped walking. "This has nothing to do with forgiveness. The Liddell family's team isn't the only team in this world."
She loved playing in competitions but refused to be confined to Team Luminark. Her implication was clear.
