No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 398

Blake saw Noelle and got up. "You're finally here, my dear sister. Do you want to act? I can arrange a role for you."

"No ended. Who gave you permission to film at the base?"

"The school did. I spoke to them, and we're shooting a youthful TV series about Team Yole."

Blake's face was all smiles as though their fight from a few days ago had never happened.

Noelle figured that was why he was so quiet lately. It seemed he had been lying in wait for her.

"Why don't you cameo in a role, Noelle? It'd be great to have the whole family in the same scene." Xenia stepped forward in a preppy plaid skirt and school uniform. Her hair was tied in a ponytail, and she looked as innocent as ever.

Noelle's expression turned cold. "Who said I'm part of the family?"

Xenia walked closer to take her hand. "Noelle, I know you're still mad at me—"

"Get lost!" Noelle yanked her hand away, and Xenia dramatically stumbled to the ground.

Everyone nearby turned to look.

Just as Xenia's eyes reddened, and she seemed ready to accuse Noelle, Blake helped her up with a smile. "What happened? Did you lose your balance and fall over?"

Xenia shrank back. "Noelle accidentally pushed me a little."

"That's not possible. Noelle isn't that strong to push you over. You must've lost your balance, didn't you?"

Under Blake's warning look, Xenia hesitated and reluctantly nodded. "I-I lost my balance."

"Now that's more like it."

Blake's smile widened as he turned to Noelle. "See? I'm on your side, so don't go around saying I play favorites."

Noelle found it all too laughable. She didn't hesitate to raise her hand and slap Xenia across the face.
