No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 257

Noelle thought for a moment before looking at Alfred. "How long have I been unconscious?"

"One day. The accident happened yesterday."

"Then the Liddell family should have seen the video by now!"

Noelle wanted to ask Frank for the video evidence back. She pulled out her phone and dialed Frank's number, but it went unanswered.

What was going on? Why wasn't he picking up?

Not ready to give up, she dialed again, and this time the call connected.

But to her surprise, it was Xenia's voice on the other end. "Hello, Noelle, what do you want with Frank?"

"Why is his phone with you?"

"Isn't it because of what you said? It made him so angry he fainted and ended up in the hospital. He hasn't woken up yet."

Noelle's voice turned icy. "Did the USB drive fall into your hands? Did you team up with the Merlock family to steal the computer?"

"What USB drive? What computer? I don't know what you're talking about. I'm hanging up now."

Xenia ended the call, a sly smile playing at the corner of her lips. Even if Noelle figured it out now, it wouldn't matter. The video was long gone.

However, as Xenia turned away, she saw that Frank had already regained consciousness.

She froze, her smile faltering. "Frank, when did you wake up?"

"When you denied taking the USB drive."

Frank was in a hospital gown, and his voice was cold as he demanded, "Where's the USB drive?"

"Frank, can't you forgive me this time? I was the one who saved you when you fainted on the street!" Xenia persisted, still hoping to sway him.

"Give me the USB drive, and then I'll consider it."

"No, you'd just show it to Donovan and the others, right?"
