Noelle smirked. "I was just making a guess. Why are you so nervous?"

Xenia stood beside Donovan with an aggrieved look. "Donovan, I know I'm not welcome in this family, especially since Noelle ran away because of me. The others have even more reason to dislike me.

"But I won't let anyone accuse my father. He died saving Uncle and Auntie."

She knew Donovan would feel guilty toward her if she emphasized this. Sure enough, Donovan reassured her, "Xenia, don't worry. No one will mistreat you as long as I'm here."

"I know, Donovan. But I'm just worried that Noelle won't be able to adjust after coming home. After all, she fought so badly with our brothers and almost sent them to jail."

Frank cut her off. "The past is the past. We're family. There's no grudge that lasts overnight.

"But you, on the other hand, should stop bringing up unpleasant things. It makes it seem like you're trying to drive a wedge between us."

Xenia immediately put on a pitiful look. "Frank, I didn't mean it like that."

"Good. By the way, you should pack up and move out of the room in the Cloudscape Villa since Noelle is coming back to the Liddell family. That's her room." Frank scoffed.
