Chapter 318 "Frank, I regret it. What should I do?" Lucas faked a smile-he couldn't even bring himself to cry.

Frank hadn't expected things to turn out this way. He released Lucas and said, "I'll go find Donovan." With that, he turned and walked away, determined to ask Donovan what had happened and why Donovan would do that.

Xenia stood alone, her forehead injury ignored. The lack of attention made her feel uneasy. If this had happened before, whenever she was hurt, her brothers would have never treated her this way.

Why was it different now? She had hoped to use a sympathy ploy to win back Lucas.

She cautiously glanced at him, purposely showing her injured forehead. "Lucas, I didn't mean what I said earlier-" He trudged forward, not even sparing her a glance. She watched his retreating figure, her face showing a look of irritation beneath her previously pitiful expression.

Damn it! The sympathy trick didn't work. She quickly gathered her emotions and dialed Justin's number, her voice filled with feigned distress and sobs as she said, "Justin, I think I'm dying...' She had to find someone to take the fall for her. Otherwise, her injury would have been for nothing.

Now that Frank and Lucas had both changed, she had to think ahead, and Justin was her best option. He was foolish, wealthy, and easy to manipulate. Once she married into the Parham family and becwealthy, crushing Noelle would be a piece of cake.

After class, Noelle and Grace went to the base, where they would start selecting official members. They also had to go to the stadium on the weekend to watch the gaming team's final competition.

Grace glanced at Noelle, looking to say something, but hesitated. Noelle turned to her. "If you want to say something, just say it." "I just want to say that you're very talented. Speople's family ties are shallow, to begin with." Noelle smiled, realizing Grace was trying to comfort her. She responded coolly, "I stopped caring about the Liddell family long ago." She had her own life now-her career and friends and no longer yearned for the so-called sibling bonds. Tianna approached. "Noelle, tickets for the final aren't easy to get, and the scalper prices are high." "Buy them. They can attend the match once approved as long as they're from our base. I'll cover the cost!" Noelle was in a good mood. If her Al project successfully went public, this small amount of money wouldn't matter. She could be considered a successful woman then, right? Tianna sighed. "I think it's better if everyone tries to get tickets themselves. Don't buy from the scalpers. It's too expensive.

"You're not being frugal. The team still hasn't found a sponsor, and we'll need money for many things in the future!"

Noelle was lectured and, after glancing at the bill, fell silent. She still had to work hard to find still sponsors.

Michael invited her to a gathering after the finals so she could find a potential sponsor there. After leaving the base, Noelle rubbed her arm and decided to return to the dorm and rest. She decided to follow Cedric's advice and take a break.

As soon as she lay down, her phone rang. She picked it up without thinking, and the gold voice of m Donovan's cthrough. "Noelle, how dare you sue your own family? You heartless wretch!" Why was he this upset? It looked like he received the demand letter.

Noelle responded indifferently, "I already signed the severance agreement long ago."

"That means nothing! You were born a Liddell, and you'll die as one. If m Mom and Dad find Xut you don't even and want to be associated with the Liddell family name, how heartbroken do you think they'll be?" She straightened up as soon as she heard this, her eyes turning icy cold.
