NovelGoldChapter 305 Noelle met Donovan's gaze and smiled faintly. "Let the event finish first. It's not urgent. Besides, with so many people watching, that plagiarist can't escape!" "Noelle, be careful with your words!" Donovan was furious. How dare she call him a plagiarist? Originally, using Noelle's ideas wasn't part of his plan. It was a last-minute change.
Noelle just smirked and returned to her seat with her colleagues. The other companies continued to present.
Her response left the Maple Enterprise team stunned. The colleague who had earlier questioned Noelle now sat there with his head lowered in silence.

Noelle's unexpected determination caught them off guard. She was a rich young lady, but she was so sharp and relentless, giving no leeway to others.
"I've already severed ties with him. He's no longer my brother," Noelle replied coldly.
The leader hesitated. "He's still your brother." "Exactly! He's so wealthy. Isn't it a waste to sever ties?"" another chimed in. Most people would dream of having a rich sibling.
Noelle's patience wore thin. "I don't need your advice. As the technical leader for this project, I will hold whoever plagiarized us accountable!" Her firm stance silenced the room.
Just then, Noelle's phone buzzed. She looked at the message from Lucas. "Noelle, this isn't Donovan's fault. Can you please let it go? Just consider it a favor." A flash of disdain crossed Noelle's eyes. She looked up at Lucas with an icy expression. Without a second thought, she deleted the message. Lucas immediately knew Noelle wasn't going to agree when he saw her cold expression.
Donovan turned to Xenia and Lucas with a scowl. "You two better figure out how to explain this to me." He had worked so hard on this project, and now Noelle had completely crushed him. He couldn't swallow his humiliation. If he hadn't used the ideas Xenia brought back, none of this would have happened.
After the meeting ended, the director made a brief closing statement, but everyone remained seated. After all, the plagiarism accusation against Liddell Corporation still hadn't been resolved. Everyone was waiting to see how it would unfold.
Noelle watched as Donovan stood up and walked out with Xenia and Lucas behind him.

Lucas glared at Xenia. "No, you were the one who got tricked. I should've stopped you when I first noticed Yfirst something was off, but instead, I let you convinceto go along with it."
Xenia felt a chill down her spine.
Sobbing, she said, "Donovan, I wasn't you an thinking straight you two have been working so hard dealing with the Merlocks because of Noelle.
"I thought if Noelle failed, she'd realize how tough things are outside and cbackdells. Sorry, Donovan. I didn't mean for any of this to happen." Donovan yanked at his tie in frustration. "How am I supposed to explain that? Figure out how to fix this!" Lucas glanced at Xenia, then turned to Donovan. "Donovan, this isn't on me. It was Xenia who stole Noelle's ideas from her computer!"
