No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 1329

The atmosphere in the living room shifted instantly. Mia could not figure out what Ivy was trying to say. She wondered if she was being tested again.

From the side, even Xenia found the comment a little strange.

Xenia looked at Ivy and asked, "Are you saying that they've been pretending? Does that mean they already knew all along?"

A chill ran down her spine in an instant. She realized that if Noelle and Mia had merely been pretending all this time, it would mean that everything had been under Noelle's control from the very beginning.

It would have been easy for Noelle to just kill her or do whatever at any given point in time.

Mia looked up at Ivy angrily. "Ivy, I fell out with my best friend because of you, you know? And now you're saying that I've just been pretending with her all along?

"Looks like Noelle's right. You've really been using me."

She grew angrier and angrier as she continued, "If that's how it is, fine then. It's not like we can really get along anyway. Let's just go back to how it was before."

Ivy quietly watched Mia from the couch. "Whatever."

Seeing how Ivy had seemingly changed into a different person, Mia wondered if Ivy had assumed that everything was over once she moved the money away last night.

Mia's expression turned cold. "I see. Then pack your things and move out. This villa is mine, after all.

"Aunt Salena used to stop you from moving in, and you never really had the right to live here anyway. It was only when I grew up that I let you move in here. If that's how you think of me, then get out of here."

Ivy did not seem to care, but Xenia was not having it.

Xenia quickly turned to Mia and said, "What makes you think you can kick us out? It's not like this house is yours alone. Ivy's your stepmother, you know?"

Mia looked at Xenia with mockery in her eyes. "The house is in my name. Besides, my dad's been dead for years, and I only have one mother."

With that, she turned around and went upstairs.

Xenia turned to Ivy in frustration. "What's going on? You're her stepmother, aren't you? How could you just let her bully you like this?
