No longer a pushover

As Noelle returned to the team's base, she sent a message to the TG PR team. "Keep a close watch on Xenia these days."

Xenia had grown accustomed to an easy life with the Liddell family. Now that Noelle had been slowly shedding Xenia of her innocent facade, Xenia would definitely try to reach out to her father.

For the next two days, Xenia continued being scolded on set. Even the manager's attitude toward Xenia grew noticeably colder. Noelle just assumed that it was most likely under Blake's orders.

On Friday, Noelle suddenly found herself added back to the family's group chat. She recalled that she had left the group chat right after she was reborn in her current life.

She read the messages and saw that Frank had tagged her. "It's the weekend tomorrow. Are you free to come home for dinner tonight?"

Noelle immediately agreed.

Xenia, who was outside, also saw the message in the group chat. She became so furious that she smashed the cup in her hand in a fit of rage.

The group chat had always been just the few of them without Noelle for some time now.

Xenia felt that she had been the happiest in her life, but now, Noelle had come back to ruin everything.

She walked aside and pulled out an old backup phone to make a call, her voice trembling as she suppressed her sobs. "How much longer do I have to endure all of this? Can't we just get rid of Noelle with a car accident just like back then?"

A voice replied from the other end. "Xenia, you can't let your impatience ruin our plans. Didn't you say that the Liddells are currently investigating the incident? I can't make any moves now because of that, or I'll risk being exposed."

"So I'm supposed to endure even more of this?" Xenia asked.
