No longer a pushover

Chapter 258

Xenia's eyes reddened, and she forced a bitter smile. "Frank, If you are so certain it's me, then fine, I'll take the blame. After all, who else could it be? None of you would dare make trouble for Samantha!"

Frank gritted his teeth, holding back the urge to curse out loud.

Donovan rubbed his temples and spoke up. "Frank, are you saying you have no evidence? I know you've been favoring Noelle recently, but you can't just accuse Xenia without proof."

Frank almost choked with frustration.

He wasn't accusing Xenia without reason he had seen the evidence with his own eyes! But without concrete proof, he couldn't say a word.

For the first time, he truly understood what it had felt like for Noelle when she was wrongfully accused. It was suffocating!

Frank took a deep breath to calm himself, saying, "Aside from what I've seen, Noelle also has the surveillance video. She even filed a report at the police station yesterday. If you want evidence, go to the police!"

Even if Xenia kept denying it now, the truth wouldn't stay hidden for long.

Donovan nodded. "Very well, I'll have someone look into this right away. The truth will come out."

Frank turned to Xenia. "Do you really need everything laid out in front of you before you admit it and kneel to apologize?"

"Frank, I know you've always wanted me to return to our hometown and retake my exams. It's my fault for not listening to you, and I understand you're upset with me.

I won't compete with Noelle for anything if I stay in Yasnia. You don't
