No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric)

What to do? Xenia was dead meat. If the Liddells hated her because of this, she would be done for.

After watching the video, Donovan turned to Xenia, dumbstruck. "What's going on? What did you do, Xenia?"

He couldn't believe she'd done something like this. To think that he had protected her. Now that evidence was presented to him, Donovan felt nothing but embarrassment!

Xenia lowered her head guiltily. She couldn't gather the courage to offer a reply. What to do now? If she couldn't explain herself, she would be done for! She couldn't be banished from the Liddell family. She couldn't lose her identity as a rich Liddell heiress!

Noelle intentionally announced loudly, "Xenia cheated. Isn't that obvious? You must be blind if that's not clear to you, Donovan. She cheated. Do you know what that means? Should I tell you the definition of cheating?"

Donovan was pale. He'd been so sure just now but it had turned around to bite him in the back.

Xenia backed away guiltily, pale as a ghost. The word 'cheating' stabbed into her heart like a needle.

Noelle should've been the one being humiliated. Why had the opposite become true? This wasn't right.

Donovan also felt humiliated. He'd always believed in Xenia. Yet, they pulled out footage of her cheating and shoved it into his face.

The leader mocked, "Is this evidence enough for you? That's why we came to talk to Xenia so she could tell her side of the story."

Donovan knew that he was in the wrong, so he said nothing. How humiliating!

However, no matter how she was questioned, Xenia didn't let out a peep. She didn't dare to offer a response! She was terrified that her life would be over if she did.

Upon seeing her behavior, Noelle

said loudly, "Xenia, did you think that being silent will allow you to escape this? There's indisputable evidence of you cheating. The school will find out soon and publish it in a report to the students. Based on the school rules, you'll be expelled!"

Xenia put her hands on her head and shrieked, "Stop talking!"

She hadn't thought she would fail here. Xenia shouldn't have reported Noelle for cheating. If she hadn't

done so, no one would think to look

into her.

Suddenly, Xenia thought of something. She looked up at Noelle and asked, "Were

you the one who reported me?"

There was no one else other than her who would do something like this.

Noelle smirked. "What are you talking about? Why would I do that?"

Why would Noelle confess to it?noveldrama

As though she'd found out a way to save herself, Xenia wailed, "Noelle, I know you've never liked me and you

believe I took your family away from you. However, you can't do this."

Donovan turned to Noelle, "Be honest, was this your doing? Why would you do

something so sinister to a family member?"

Upon hearing this, Noelle chuckled, "I'm sinister? It's not like I forced her to cheat."

Xenia looked down guiltily. She had to find a way to overcome this hurdle. She would exploit their weakness for her!

After all, her dad saved Noelle's life. The Liddells were indebted to him!
