No longer a pushover

Chapter 154

When Noelle heard what Frank said about distancing herself from Cedric, she pursed her lips. "This situation started because of me, and I won't run away from it."

She couldn't bring herself to pin all the blame on Cedric, not when that would feel like backstabbing.

"Nelly, stop being so stubborn. Listen to me and come home. I promise nothing will happen to you."

"If that's all you've got to say, then don't say anything at all."

Noelle hung up the phone decisively. She wasn't going to follow Frank's advice.

Frank stared at the phone, sighing heavily.

Standing beside him, Lucas asked, "So, did she agree?"

"No."

"Is Noelle out of her mind? She can't solve Justin's situation and is just going to get herself into more trouble with the Parham family."

Frank was well aware of the seriousness of the situation.
