Chapter 546

However, Noelle still did not tell him anything. Cedric understood her personality— her stubbornness and relentless determination-but that did not mean he liked seeing her struggle alone.

He sighed and asked, "What's bothering you?"

"What else? The Liddells, of course." Noelle held onto him tightly, listening to the steady rhythm of his heartbeat.

Cedric could see she was upset, so he did not push for details and simply let her hold him. He had no idea how long they stayed like that, but once Noelle had fully calmed down, she finally let go.

She glanced up at him, looking a little embarrassed. She reached out and playfully pinched his cheek. After two days apart, he was still just as handsome, and just looking at him made her feel better.

Cedric took her hand and gently removed her boxing gloves, rubbing her wrist. "You shouldn't hit so hard-you'll hurt your wrists."

Noelle was surprised. "How did you know?"

"I was watching you," Cedric called her as soon as he landed. When she did not answer, he checked with the gym and found out she was there.

The moment he saw her relentlessly attacking the punching bag, he knew something was wrong. Instead of interrupting right away, he let her vent until she had worn herself out, and only then did he step in.

Noelle lay on the floor, catching her breath, as Cedric grabbed a massage gun to loosen her tense muscles. She accepted the treatment without hesitation and was completely at ease.

An hour later, Cedric put the massage gun down and looked at her. "Hungry?" She mumbled, "A little."

"What do you want to eat? If nothing comes to mind, we can go to L Bistro." Cedric liked going to L Bistro for meals.
