No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 1142

Donovan had a complicated look. "I was wrong."

Blake sighed. "Donovan, I know you're proud and ambitious. And that was why you were able to protect us back then. We understand why you became who you are today, but things are different now."

Donovan lowered his head. "I know. I'll think about it."

…

Noelle and Cedric moved to the side.

He held her hand and asked softly, "What did Donovan say?"

"He didn't say anything weird. On the contrary, he was being nice, almost like he was trying to win me over." Noelle smiled at Cedric.

She continued, "But I won't waver. I have so many good things happening to me. I'm not interested in their apologies."

Maybe the old her would have longed for this moment, but not anymore.

Cedric sighed. "I believe you."

Noelle shifted the topic. "What did PZ Group's president say to you?"

Even while she was off snacking, Noelle had kept a close eye on Cedric's situation.

Cedric replied calmly, "They want to partner with us to develop the overseas market."

"They are so persistent. And that was a convincing performance, too." Noelle lowered her voice. "Mia told me that more and more wealthy women have been getting involved with PZ Group's investment plans recently."

PZ Group was throwing such a large banquet and revealing grand plans for international expansion. It must have attracted even more interest from the rich.

Cedric held her hand. "I know."
