No longer a pushover

Chapter 551

Noelle was baffled by the sudden question and smiled. "Ms. Merlock, I know exactly what kind of person my boyfriend is."

She didn't need anyone else judging Cedric's character. Laura's words lingered at the tip of her tongue. She wanted to tell Noelle the truth, but in the end, she held back.

If she was going to reveal Cedric's real identity, it couldn't be done so casually. Otherwise, that'd be too easy for Noelle.

Any lady would be overjoyed to learn that her boyfriend was the heir to the Greene family. Once Noelle knew, she'd never let go. That wasn't what Laura wanted.

"Nothing. I was just being nosy."
