No longer a pushover

Chapter 104

"Noelle, I know you're upset, and Lucas was way out of line today. I'll make sure you get your revenge, but are you really going to push us all away because of him?" Noelle couldn't help but laugh. Didn't the whole family always side with Xenia? She responded coldly, "It doesn't make a difference to me."

As Noelle headed to the curb to grab a cab, she spotted a familiar car stopping in front of her.

The window rolled down, revealing Cedric. "Get in," he said.

Noelle opened the passenger door and sat down. Just as she closed it, Frank walked up. "Noelle, I know you're tired, but can we talk sometime soon?" Noelle pursed her lips. "We'll see."

Cedric hit the gas, speeding away.

Frank stood there, feeling defeated. He looked at Michael and said, "Mr. Malark, Noelle won't be signing with your team. You might as well give up on that idea." Michael raised an eyebrow. "Since you're so confident, why be afraid of a little competition? I've never seen such biased behavior before it's a first for me."

Noelle glanced at Cedric in the driver's seat. "Why are you here?"

Cedric replied, gripping the steering wheel, his expression a bit uneasy.
