White foam immediately filled the sky.

Justin was so shocked by Noelle's actions that he turned pale. He asked, "Noelle, what on earth are you doing?"noveldrama

Although he was a wealthy playboy who had grown accustomed to seeing all sorts of things happen in life, he had never seen a woman rushing up to him with a fire extinguisher in hand. After Noelle put out all the candles, she turned to look at him with annoyance. "I don't like you, and I don't wish to see such childish gestures outside my school gates."

She was already annoyed because of her period, yet Justin and Xenia still dared to approach

and annoy her.

Justin said, "Noelle, you're quite interesting. I really like you and your personality!"

She turned to aim the extinguisher at Justin and deployed it. Justin was so shocked by the turn of events that he cursed loudly while his followers quickly ran up to shield him.

She then threw the fire extinguisher onto the ground and said coldly, "Stop bothering me.

Their exams were coming up soon, so she did not want to be bothered by men like Justin. Those men would only waste her time.

"Noelle, how could you do such a thing to Justin? He chose to publicly confess his feelings for you because he likes you. Even if you don't have feelings for him, you shouldn't humiliate him like this."

Xenia appeared just at the right time.

Noelle frowned with annoyance and said, "This has nothing to do with you. You can fuck off as

well!"

A flicker of confusion flashed across Xenia's expression as she did not expect the usually cold Noelle to get angry and scold her.

Noelle brushed the white foam away from her hands. She found the smell disgusting.

Ever since she talked to Donovan in the restaurant the day before, it has become much more challenging for her to maintain her emotions.

Noelle was about to leave, but Justin was not about to let that happen after being publicly

humiliated like that. He shouted, "Noelle, stand right there. Who the fuck said you could leave?

However, she continued to walk away without even looking back as she exuded an air of defiance. Chapter 43

Feeling embarrassed, Justin turned toward his lackeys and said, "What are you all standing there staring at? Go and grab her for me! I want to teach her a lesson. Does she really think she can mess with me and leave unscathed?"

Xenia stood by the side and smiled coldly as she watched the scene unfold. She thought that Noelle was an idiot. She couldn't believe that the latter could reject Justin so harshly after he had confessed to her. She questioned Noelle's intellect.

Xenia was particularly interested in seeing how hard Noelle's days would be in the following days after offending Justin. She really wished that it would affect Noelle, causing her to do badly in her college entrance exams.

Suddenly, Lucas ran over from the other side of the road, his expression dark. "I'd like to see who would dare to lay a hand on her!"

Noelle was slightly stunned when she saw Lucas. Then, she remembered Lucas' message inviting her to meet at the cafe opposite their school. She had not replied to his message and had deleted his number then, as she had no intentions of meeting him. She never thought that

he would actually show-up.

Lucas stormed over and glared at Justin. "You little punk. How dare you dare set your sights on my sister? Have you asked her six brothers for permission to do so?"

Justin's expression morphed into unease after seeing Lucas. However, since he was from Yasnia, he looked down on the high society of Aldoria.

Justin snarled, "Your sister aimed a fire extinguisher at me. How should we settle this offense?

Lucas retorted, "I saw everything clearly. You were the one who harassed my sister first. She used the fire extinguisher to stop your candles from becoming a fire hazard. "She had also aimed the fire extinguisher at you to stop you from harassing her. I think her actions were completely reasonable and understandable.

"Even if you have your connections, we are currently in Aldoria. If you plan on staying here peacefully, you should stop making a fuss."

Justin's expression immediately changed. "I dare you to say that again."

Xenia immediately came up to ease the tension. "Lucas, Mr. Parham wasn't the only one at fault here. Noelle could have rejected him outright if she did not have feelings for him.

"I don't think that he's the type to cling onto someone and pester them. However, Noelle had directly used the fire extinguisher on him. Don't you think that she's crossed the line?"

Justin took the opportunity Xenia had given him and said, "Exactly! I have plenty of admirers. Why would I obsess over one girl? Seeing that temper of hers, I've already lost all my interest in her!" Chapar

Lucas, however, frowned as he glanced at Xenia Something about her words had rubbed him

the wrong way. He questioned why Noelle, the victim of harassment, had to refuse Justin" politely". After all, she did not owe him anything
