No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 225

After Samantha's remark, the bar's private room fell silent. Many people turned to look at Noelle, some with looks of amusement.

"I heard Noelle offended people from the business school on the first day of the semester."

"Yeah, I was there. She was so arrogant."

"People really ought to know their place. Otherwise, they'll end up overestimating themselves."

Samantha looked at Noelle smugly, determined to embarrass and teach her a lesson. She wanted Noelle to fail in school and ultimately be forced to kneel and apologize to her.

Samuel said, "Ms. Merlock, I think there's a misunderstanding between you and Noelle. Since we're all part of the same club now, why don't we just have a drink and move past it?"

Xenia quickly added, "Yes, Noelle. You should take the initiative to propose a toast to Ms. Merlock as an apology."

"Hmph! I'll never forgive her unless she kneels and apologizes!"

Samantha grabbed a glass of alcohol from the table and splashed it on Noelle. "This is a little lesson for you! I want you to understand the difference between us!"

Noelle calmly wiped the alcohol from her face, her expression indifferent.

"Noelle, you should really listen to Samuel and apologize," Xenia said, feeling satisfied. She thought Noelle deserved it.

Samuel handed a drink to Noelle. "Take this drink and show a better attitude."

She glanced at the drink, then took it. He smiled wider. "That's the spirit. Now apologize to Ms. Merlock."

"When did I say I would apologize?" Noelle, who was holding the glass, poured its content over Samantha's head.

"I'll wait then." Just as Noelle was about to leave, Xenia sprayed something at her.

Noelle smelled something fragrant, but the scent was strange. She quickly covered her nose and mouth, stepping back warily.

At that moment, Samantha walked in, accompanied by several bodyguards. "Noelle, how dare you splash me with alcohol? I'll arrange for ten thugs to show you what it means to be humiliated. Let's see how you'll survive at Yole University after this!"

Noelle felt a hot sensation on her face, and her body began to feel weak. She didn't expect Samantha to be this vicious. She had let her guard down.

Noticing a mop bucket nearby, Noelle grabbed it and threw it at Samantha. Samantha screamed and stumbled back while the bodyguards rushed forward. Seizing the opportunity, Noelle bolted out of the restroom.

"She's escaping!"

Xenia was the first to notice and grabbed Noelle's wrist.
