No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 431

Noelle stared at Blake with a mocking look. She sounded indifferent. "You don't need to explain. Honestly, I regret saving you back then. I nearly got myself killed for it."

She regretted ever sacrificing for her brothers in the Liddell family. They weren't worth it.

Blake looked utterly miserable. It took him a while to find his voice again. "I only treated you that way because I thought you abandoned me. That's why I bullied you and was so cruel to you. It was all because of Xenia."

"Was it just because of her?" Noelle's gaze was unwavering. "Did any of you ever trust me, even just a little?"

If they had, they wouldn't have believed Xenia so easily. But in the end, they all chose to believe that manipulative liar. She didn't need such siblings.

Blake panicked. "It's not like that! I know you're angry, but I'll punish Xenia to make it up to you."

His emotions were in complete turmoil. He had never experienced such humiliation in his entire life. Even his voice trembled.

Blake suddenly raised his hand and slapped Xenia. He growled, "I warned you'd face the consequences if you ever lied to me again. You've got some nerve to deceive me for so long!"

He wanted nothing more than to strangle her.

Xenia's face swelled from the slap. In desperation, she turned to Donovan for help. "Donovan, please save me! I was just scared and got confused. But I did go back to save Blake!"

She was terrified and didn't want Blake to beat her to death. He was a madman.

Donovan quickly pulled Xenia aside and scolded Blake, "What are you doing? Xenia was young back then. It's normal for her to remember wrongly."

"You're still covering for her?" Blake trembled with fury.
