NovelStartNoelle and Cedric Chapter 51 Chapter 51 Noelle subconsciously frowned when she heard Xenia's voice.
Xenia had already run under Noelle's umbrella as the former held her bag over her head to shield herself from the rain. She put on an innocent expression and said, "I lent my umbrella to a classmate. Could we share?" "No," Noelle said before turning and walking away without glancing at Xenia.

Her expression darkened. Initially, she wanted to use this opportunity to mend her relationship with Noelle. She had noticed the changes in Frank and Lucas, so she was filled with worry. She wondered if she would still have a place within the Liddells if they had reconciled with Noelle and coaxed her to return home. Hence, she decided to try to make amends with Noelle.
Xenia never thought that Noelle would outright reject her. However, since that was the case, she felt that Noelle should not blher for being cruel.
Alfred had been watching everything unfold from inside the black luxury car. "Nelly seems to have quite the temper. She just rejected that girl without hesitation." Cedric's gaze was dark as he said, "One cannot be too kind." Xenia had been the one behind most of Noelle's sufferings. Although her brothers may be blind to it, he knew that Xenia was not a simple girl.
When Noelle arrived at her classroom, she hung her umbrella at the back of the room. After a while, Xenia entered the class, wholly drenched and looking extremely pitiful.
Even Lionel could not help but ask, "Xenia, did you not bring an umbrella with you today? Why are you completely drenched? You'll get a cold if you stay soaked throughout class." Xenia's complexion was pale as she said, "I'll be fine." Betty immediately exclaimed, "It's all because Noelle had abandoned Xenia and walked away with her umbrella. She's the reason why Xenia is soaked. She's horrible." Noelle's expression was filled with frustration. They were coming at her again.
However, before she could say a single word, her class president, Rachel Clark, immediately retorted, "I saw Xenia giving her umbrella to someone else.

Betty quickly fought back and said, "It was pouring heavily outside. Even if Noelle wasn't willing to share her umbrella with Xenia, she shouldn't have just left her alone in the rain." Rachel retorted again and said, "But Xenia could have just shared her umbrella with the person she lent her umbrella to. Why did she insist on squeezing under Noelle's? "She knew that Noelle didn't like her but still went out of her way to make things difficult for her. Then, she turns around and accuses Noelle of abandoning her.
"Who's really overstepping and trying to guilt-trip other people into doing things?" Rachel's firm words explained the situation clearly and logically. However, Noelle was a bit puzzled that Rachel had witnessed the whole situation and still chose to stand up for her. After all, she never had friends before. Betty was at a loss for words and could only say, "Regardless, it was wrong of Noelle to abandon Xenia."
Xenia never thought someone would speak up for Noelle, as the latter had always been isolated in their class. With an understanding expression, she turned to Lionel and said, "Mr. Kramer, I'm fine. It's all just a big misunderstanding." Lionel coughed and did not question them further. "Alright then. Let's start with today's lesson.'
Xenia was left standing awkwardly. She was fuming. She hadn't expected Lionel to drop the matter so easily. She cursed inwardly and wondered why things hadn't gone according to her plan. During break time, Noelle headed to the restroom. When she emerged from her stall, she overheard Betty bad- mouthing about her to someone else.
When Noelle appeared, the people by the sink fell silent.
Betty said sarcastically, "Speople like to act all high and mighty after doing something wrong. They think they're untouchable because they're from a rich family!" She had even purposely flicked the water on her hand at Noelle. Noelle was already in a bad mood due to her period, yet Betty was still trying to test her limits. She immediately kicked a bucket toward Betty, causing the latter to shriek. "What do you think you're doing?" Noelle looked at her coldly and said, "If I catch you doing this again, I'll shove that dirty water down your throat and wash that filthy mouth of yours!"
