If any more people died, the police were sure to start suspecting her. She needed to stop this now.
She quickly typed out a reply. "I've already sent you the money. Stop bugging me!" She wanted nothing more to do with this person, nor did she want anyone to find out she was related to Betty's death! Just then, Gordon knocked on her door. "Ms. Liddell, Betty's family clooking for you. Thankfully, I managed to keep them out. It would be bad if they spoke to Mr. Frank and said inappropriate things." "Thanks for keeping their mouths shut, Gordon. Please make sure they don't babble to Frank. You know he's been treatingdifferently lately." Xenia was on edge now, fearful that her relationship with that mysterious person might be discovered.
Frank and Lucas didn't treat her the sanymore, so she had to get back in their favor.

"Frank, what are we going to do now that Donovan's decided to cut ties with Noelle?" "He didn't really mean that. I plan to focus on the company's operations in Yasnia from now on since Noelle will be moving there. That way, I can stay closer to her." "Then, what about Xenia? She still has to repeat the year." "She can manage with the servants and drivers around. She doesn't need us for that." Frank's attitude toward Xenia had turned noticeably cold. "In two weeks, there'll be an artificial intelligence investment conference. It's an important opportunity for us, so we have to make sure we're well-prepared." Hearing this, hatred flashed in Xenia's eyes.
She refused to repeat a year. She didn't want to fall behind Noelle.
Right now, her only hope was to ask for Donovan's help.
After ending her livestream, Noelle contacted Firestorm's employees and returned all the gifts she received from Frank.
She didn't want a single penny from them.
Over the next two weeks, she kept herself busy by helping develop the artificial intelligence project at Alfred's company since it was almost tfor the conference.
en However, before departing, she realized she still hadn't received her letter of acceptance from yet University, though it should have arrived by now.
After contacting the administration's office, she was given a tracking number for her parcel.
When she went to trace her letter, she discovered it had just been sent to the Liddell residence this afternoon.
Noelle groaned in frustration and rubbed her temples. Picking up her phone, she dialed Frank's number.

"Noelle, I know you're very disappointed in all of us, But om Donovan is hoping you'll visit at least once before leaving." "There's nothing worth visiting for." But then, a thought struck, so she said, "Fine, I'll cback if you doa favor." "Anything. You're my sister, of course I'll help you." A cold smile tugged at her lips as she ended the call.
She went to look for Cedric. "I need to head back home. My acceptance e letter was delivered there." Cedric frowned. "Are you using it to force yourself to go home?"
"Not quite, but close enough. I just happened to have something to take care of there to prevent future trouble." Seeing that she had made up her mind, he offered, "I'll go with you." Nodding, she and Cedric made their way to the Liddell residence.
