The Killer Queen by Noella Briony

Chapter 248

Beckett couldn’t shake off the uneasy feeling chuming inside him!

Although Palmer was Noella’s fiance, the fact that he had just emerged from his sister’s bedroom seemed to rush things up a bit too much!

Noella could tell at a glance that Beckett had gotten the wrong idea.

“Beckett, he got hurt. He crashed on the couch last night.”

Knowing Palmer had only slept on the couch, Beckett’s expression softened significantly.

Marcel and Sexton, on the other hand, were chuckling away.

Sexton, in particular, was thrilled to see Palmer, that boy, finally get a clue and walk out of Noella’s room. His old face was blooming with joy! At this rate, he could start pondering names for his great–grandchildren!

But upon hearing that Palmer had just slept on the couch, Sexton’s eyes betrayed a hint of heartache.

“Okay”

Ulrich glanced at his phone, his eyelids twitched with irritation, which he quickly subdued, regaining his composure.

Only after Marcel and Sexton had left for their chess game did Ulrich pass the phone to Beckett.

“Beckett, someone’s been spreading info about Noella online, trying to stir up trouble. I’ve handled it, and we’re tracking down the source.

Beckett mised an eyebrow

Were people itching for trouble, daring to smear his sister online?

A video of Noella playing the zither had somehow become popular online. Several accounts had posted disparaging comments about Noella, making Beckett bristle with anger!
