No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 1442

As Noelle sat on the beach, someone soon came over and set up a parasol for her before some others brought her fruit slices.

However, she was too mad to eat a thing and refused to see anyone at all. After waiting for some time, she turned around and noticed the nannies still standing in the scorching sun with sweat streaming down their faces.

"Why are you all standing out there? The sun's brutal today," she called out.

One of them hesitated before saying, "It's fine. Mr. Liddell's orders are not to disturb you."

"Are you not even allowed to stand under the parasol??"

"No, Ms. Liddell. Those were his orders."

It hit her that this was Carl's way of forcing her to head back inside. So, she got up and said, "Let's go."

She wasn't going to stand there while all the nannies got heatstroke. After returning to the top floor, she dismissed the nannies and sent them away to get some water. Then, she turned around and stormed into her room.

When Carl approached with his men, he called out through the door, "Cool down a little before having cold drinks. They're not good for you."

But Noelle ignored him and headed straight into the bathroom for a shower. Carl, Frank, and Wyatt exchanged looks before deciding to leave the room.

Back in the dining room, Carl turned to Emery and asked, "Have you checked the workers who delivered the shipment today? Is there anything off?"

"We did, Mr. Liddell. Everything's going well."

"Did she talk to any of them?"

"No. She didn't even get close." It was only then that Carl relaxed a little.

Beside him, Frank asked, "What exactly are you worried about?"
