Noelle was surrounded by reporters, leaving her no space to move.

"Ms. Liddell, which team do you plan to join for the finals?"

"Ms. Liddell, knowing the rivalry between Starlight and Firestorm, why did you choose to sign with Firestorm?"

Noelle smiled faintly. "I haven't decided on any of that yet. Once I do, I'll let everyone know."

"Ms. Liddell, could you elaborate on the rumored fallout with your family?"

Instead of answering, Noelle turned to walk toward the hall. She lifted her gown and strode with steady steps. She spared no glance at Lucas or Frank, treating them as though they were strangers. Lucas, who remained rooted in the same spot, was also surrounded by reporters.

The questions made his temper flare, and he snapped, "Shut up, all of you! This has nothing to do with you!"

Xenia's expression was also unhappy. She hadn't expected Noelle to be SweetNelly.
