No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 362

Noelle was speechless.

Cedric tossed his phone aside. Then, he drove home in a good mood.

When Noelle recalled his text, she couldn't help but send him an angry emoji. She didn't mean for the text to be an innuendo.

…

The next day, Noelle was woken up by her phone's ringing. She didn't have class in the morning, so she had been planning on sleeping in.

After getting woken up, she asked unpleasantly, "Who is it?"

"Noelle, I didn't think you would be so ruthless and wanted me dead. I've already confessed to all those crimes. Why did you have to let the media know about that? Are you insistent on destroying my life?" Lucas was enraged.

Noelle sat up and yawned. "There must be something wrong with you. When have I ever sent this to the media?"

"Look at the news about the esports industry. Who else would do that apart from you?"

Upon seeing the news, Lucas knew that his career was done for. His sponsors had been calling him non-stop, wanting to terminate their contract.

The manager said that many teammates were planning on pulling out.

Lucas was furious. "Noelle, I admit that I have my faults. Even if I were imprisoned, I'd resign myself to it. Why are you going to such extents?"

Noelle turned on her phone and saw the news Lucas had been talking about.

"Liddell Corporation has been accused of stealing business secrets. An esports professional did the stealing himself."

She eyed the contents of the article. It illustrated how Donovan's company had stolen business secrets, but didn't mention what exactly those secrets were. There was no mention of Noelle's name either.

However, their stocks had plummeted after the scandal broke.

After reading it, Noelle said coldly, "No matter whether you believe it or not, I didn't do it."
