Chapter 609

After smashing the cake into Donovan's face, Noelle stared at his stunned

expression and said flatly, "The person who asked you to order that was Xenia, not me."

Donovan was livid. "Are you out of your mind? Even if I got it wrong, how could you just slap it into my face?"

He angrily grabbed the tissues his assistant had handed him and wiped at the

mess.

Noelle, still smiling, replied, "Well, now you'll remember, won't you? Xenia's the one who likes that cake, not me. Honestly, you should be thanking me."

As a cab pulled up beside them, Noelle casually bent down and got in. Donovan yelled after her, "Noelle! Get out of the car-I still have questions! Did you call Mia to L Bistro on purpose that day?"

From the backseat, Noelle looked out the window at him. "You really kept that whole 'you're actually Mia's roommate' thing quiet, huh?"

Donovan's tone faltered. "That wasn't intentional! I didn't know Mia hadn't told you who she was. But you should've told me you invited her to dinner."
