No longer a pushover

Chapter 559

After Noelle spoke, she watched Xenia's face turn pale with shock, guilt, and fear.

Then, she sighed dramatically. "Just the fact you were two-timing makes you destined to fail."

"Nonsense! Xenia isn't someone like that!"

Wyatt immediately defended Xenia and turned to Noelle. "You're just jealous that Xenia has so many suitors, all of whom are better than your broke boyfriend. That's why you're sowing discord. You think I'll fall for it?"

Noelle asked almost incredulously, "Me? Stirring trouble?"

"I know about Justin. He's just one of Xenia's admirers." Wyatt snorted.

A hint of sarcasm flashed in Noelle's eyes as she pointed out, "Oh, come on. Everyone knows Justin and Xenia were dating. He wasn't just her admirer."

Lucas nodded along. "Yeah. They got together right after high school."

Wyatt's expression finally wavered. He turned to Xenia in disbelief. "Xenia, what's going on?" Noelle and Lucas claimed Xenia had dated Justin, and this was different from what Xenia had told him.

Xenia's mind was in chaos. She hadn't expected Justin, the mama boy, to seek updates about her from Noelle. Now, Justin knew she was getting engaged.
