NovelGoldChapter 369 Cedric frowned as he approached Noelle. Watching Cedric kick the door in and barge in, Noelle was stunned. She noticed his horrible mood and tugged at his hand. "I'm fine." He could not make a move against them. They would exploit it as blackmail material. Donovan was definitely capable to do something like this. However, Noelle could not let Cedric fall into such a disadvantage.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCedric studied Noelle's calm expression. She didn't seem to be angry. Thus, his expression relaxed.
He looked up at Donovan. Had he been too soft toward the Liddells, allowing them to trample all over Noelle? Donovan studied Cedric's features. Complicated emotions swirled within her eyes. He looked like that guy from the Greene family! He asked outright, "Who are you?" "His identity shouldn't be your current focus." Alfred walked in, a proud sneer on his face. He no longer looked as approachable as he usually did.
Donovan's expression changed when he saw Alfred. "Mr. Parham." Although he didn't have many interactions with the wealthiest families in the country, he had gone to a few events and seen Alfred twice.
Frank stood beside Donovan. He was surprised. "Donovan, is he the one from the Parham family you were talking about?" Back then, he hadn't known about Alfred's background. It explained why finding Noelle after she moved out had been so difficult. Frank had thought it was Cedric who was from a powerful family. He hadn't expected it to be someone else? Was Alfred the one with Noelle instead of Cedric? Donovan noticed Frank's expression and asked, "Do you know him?" Alfred said, "I know him. I've seen Mr. Frank a few times, but they didn't end on a good note." Donovan lifted an eyebrow. Why was he unaware of this? Frank noticed his action and explained hurriedly, "I hadn't known about Mr. Parham's background and accidentally offended him. After all, I was just trying to protect my sister." Alfred tutted and said, "If this is what protection looks like for the Liddells, Noelle probably isn't surviving to see another day of sun." This unsettled Donovan. "Mr. Parham, you're crossing a line." "Have I said anything wrong? Your protection and concern for her is conditional upon Noelle backing down, suffering and apologizing. Without this, you won't be able to protect her, right?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlfred had always had a sharp tongue. Upon hearing this, Donovan's face fell. However, he didn't provide a retort out of deference for Alfred's identity. If the Liddells pissed Alfred off now, it would be difficult to establish a firm foundation in Yasnia.
Frank glanced at Noelle. "I'm admitting that we were wrong.
m However, Noelle is our only sister and she's never been in need of money since she was a child. She's not a girl you can push over easily." Cedric shot back coldly, "Isn't Xenia your only biological sister?" Alfred added, "Yeah, haven't you all demonstrated favoritism toward your fake sister? I've seen that you all are skilled at disgracing and oppressing Noelle. How could you say something like that?"
Frank was swaying on his feet. These words were stabbing into his head. He tried to calm himself and prevent himself from considering these matters. After all, he couldn't change what had happened. He could only try to make it up to her. Donovan noticed that Frank seemed off. He held him and said, "I've told you not to come. Yet, you insisted!" "How could I not? Mr. Parham, tell us what it'll take for you to let Noelle go!"
