No longer a pushover

Chapter 453

Cedric frowned slightly and glanced at his assistant.

Noelle turned around. "Is someone calling you?"

"You heard wrong." Cedric shifted his position to block Noelle's view while Laura was surrounded by bodyguards and swiftly taken away.

Soon, the helicopter lifted off. Laura could only watch as Cedric left with another lady. Anger drove her to the verge of tears.

She'd seen Cedric act gently around the lady, and she'd never witnessed this side of him. That thought sent jealousy surging through her heart.

Ever since she was a child, her only wish had been to marry Cedric, be his wife, and give birth to two children. And now, Noelle's sudden appearance ruined everything. She'd never let Cedric go.

Her assistant approached. "I took a picture of the lady just now, Ms. Merlock, but it isn't very clear."

Laura glanced at the picture and immediately recognized who it was. She'd seen Noelle at the hospital, but after Alfred denied everything, she'd foolishly trusted him.

Damn it. They'd lied to her.

Laura fumed. "Find out every single detail about her, no matter what it takes!"
