This left Frank standing outside, staring at the necklace in his hand. Regret welled up as he replayed his earlier words. However, he felt that Noelle was somewhat to blame since she had deliberately provoked him.

She was a clever girl, so there was no way she wouldn't have understood what he meant. He wondered if she had deliberately done that because she was still mad.

Frank stared at the closed door and sighed inwardly, thinking, "What am I supposed to do with you, Noelle?"

She had expected too much and underestimated how important Xenia was to Frank. After all, a simple bowl of soup from Xenia was enough to move him to tears, while the years of medicinal congee she painstakingly made were nothing but trash to him.
