No longer a pushover

Chapter 440

Sean must have been pulling the strings.

Noelle scrolled through Xenia's phone, but there was nothing else aside from those two brief messages. The number was from a burner phone and was impossible to trace back to anyone.

The only thing she found in Xenia's encrypted album was a collection of intimate photos with Justin. But it was nothing of value. After thinking for a moment, Noelle implanted a bug in Xenia's phone to monitor all her future communications.

She shut her laptop. Sean was indeed cautious, which meant he would be difficult to deal with. But wasn't he just a migrant worker who came to the city as a driver? How did he know how to use such advanced technology?

The more Noelle thought about it, the more suspicious it seemed. However, there was nothing she could do except wait with no concrete leads at the moment. She didn't believe Xenia could hold out forever.

After some rest, Noelle went to the garden to observe the ants. Before long, a well-dressed woman passed by. She wore a hat and a mask, clearly trying to avoid being recognized.

The woman took out her phone and whispered into it, "Have you found out which room that girl is staying in?"

Emma had decided to meet Noelle in person to see who enchanted Cedric. She kept sneaking around, afraid of being spotted by the people Cedric had assigned to watch her. If they found out, she wouldn't be able to approach Noelle at all. However, Emma didn't pay attention to where she was walking. Her heels slipped, and she lost her balance, tumbling toward the ground.

"Careful!" Noelle reacted swiftly, grabbing Emma's arm to steady her.

Emma patted her chest, shaken. "Oh my, that scared me. Thank you, young lady!"
