No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 583

Noelle glanced at Xenia's dress, now stained with red wine.

Her smile widened. "Xenia, your tricks are just as pathetic as ever."

Xenia would rather destroy the dress that she couldn't keep and even framed Noelle in the process.

Xenia gasped. "Noelle, you did this on purpose! You wanted to ruin the dress so that Donovan wouldn't be able to explain himself to Ms. Cantrell, right?"

"You knew you wouldn't be able to keep this dress, so instead of letting it go…" Before Noelle could finish, someone suddenly threw red wine at her.

She wiped her face and saw Wyatt standing with an empty glass. He had thrown the wine at her.

Wyatt pulled Xenia to his side. "Noelle, don't you dare try to shift the blame! You couldn't have the dress, so you deliberately destroyed it, right?"

Noelle stared at him coldly. "Why would I destroy a dress that didn't belong to Xenia in the first place?"

Wyatt scoffed. "You're just jealous that Xenia can wear it, and you can't. Donovan, are you really going to let her off?"

Donovan frowned at Noelle. "This dress was a birthday gift for Ms. Cantrell. How am I supposed to explain to her now that you've ruined it?"

Noelle sneered. Were they trying to make her the scapegoat again?

Before she could say anything, Lucas stood up. "Donovan, I saw everything. Xenia deliberately poured the wine on the dress. It had nothing to do with Noelle. She didn't even flinch."

Wyatt's face twisted in anger. "That's only because Noelle scared Xenia, causing her to spill the wine!"

"Wyatt, you're being unreasonable. How could you pin this on Noelle?" Lucas was furious. He turned to Donovan.

"Donovan, none of this would have happened if Wyatt hadn't taken it upon himself to let Xenia wear the dress. If anyone was to blame, it would be him and Xenia!"

Donovan's expression turned ugly. "Can all of you stop causing trouble? Do you have to make a scene every time?"

Wyatt hurriedly added, "Donovan, the dress is ruined, and it's all Noelle's fault. Xenia had nothing to do with it."
