No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 1375

Meanwhile, Noelle herself also had no idea where she was. All she knew was that she had gotten a headache and that everything was pitch black when she opened her eyes, with only some sound reaching her ears from outside.

She could hear car horns blaring as well as the voices of people haggling over groceries. Noelle reckoned that she was currently in a market of sorts. She thought for a while before recalling that she had fallen off a bridge after a car accident.

Her memory began to return, and so she started analyzing her current situation. Noelle remembered that she had escaped from the crashed car and swum to the surface of the river.

She knew how to swim, and at that moment of crisis, her desire to survive had given her incredible willpower and strength. But she was left wondering what happened after.

Noelle remembered that she had run out of strength and was swept away by the river. But she could not recall anything beyond that. She then wondered where she currently was if she was not at a hospital.

Noelle soon heard the sound of a door opening and someone grumbling in a low voice. "What the hell is this country's problem? Security is so goddamn tight for some reason. There are cops patrolling everywhere."

Another man replied, "That's Montrevia for you, I guess. This place is off-limits to mercenaries. We drew the attention of the police when we opened fire at the hospital, so now they're patrolling all over the place and screening anyone who looks suspicious."

"So what do we do now? I thought I spoke Montrevian well enough already, but everyone here still calls me a foreigner at first sight."

"We'll be leaving this place tonight. We can't afford to waste any more time."

Noelle listened in on their conversation and quickly figured that they were likely Ivy's men. She then wondered if they had found her after she passed out.

It was a good thing, as she probably would have drowned in the river if they hadn't found her in time. Noelle let out a breath of relief after realizing that she was technically saved. So long as she was still alive, Cedric's men would be able to find her eventually.

Noelle laughed out loud. It was absurd, but she was genuinely grateful that she was picked up by Ivy's men.
