No longer a pushover

Chapter 208

The bodyguards were too tall for Noelle to get a clear look at the man emerging from the elevator, but she could make out his tall figure. He wore a dark suit with the sleeves rolled up slightly, revealing his long, clean fingers. However, his facial features remained unclear under the dim light.

Noelle jumped up, waving her hand and calling out loudly, "Mr. Greene, I'm from Maple Enterprise, I-"

"If you cause any more trouble, don't blame us for being rude," he warned before walking away.

"Fall through? Why do you think so?" Alfred asked with a chuckle.

Noelle explained what had happened with Donovan. "I even saw Mr. Greene just now."
