Chapter 416

Noelle's expression froze up for a moment as she stared at Cedric in a daze. Her gaze flickered as she lowered her head and whispered, "I'm fine, aren't I?"

"What if you weren't? Didn't I tell you to give me a call if something happened? It doesn't matter what it is. I can help you!" Cedric grew angrier the more he spoke.

He could not forget about the sound of Noelle's desperate cry for help from the live stream. At that moment, he almost felt like killing someone. All of that, only to realize that she had been acting all along.
