Noelle couldn't wrap her mind around it. Couldn't the Liddell family do even one thing correctly? The Liddells had also seen the news about Xenia.
Frank rushed over in a panic. "Noelle, I arranged everything and have no idea how news of Xenia's death got out."
Donovan frowned. "Noelle, someone must be pulling this behind the scenes. Xenia's death wouldn't have been leaked otherwise."
Blake tried to smooth things over. "Noelle, think about it. We have informed the media, and they wouldn't report anything without our permission.
"Yet they're now saying Xenia's dead and claiming we forced her to commit suicide. That's absurd!"
Noelle said coldly, "Are you saying there's someone behind this?"
Blake shook his head. "We're not sure. However, someone definitely pulled some strings for the news to blow up like it has."
After calming down, Noelle also realized someone must have interfered. But who was it?
Cedric spoke up. "Even if it's been leaked, it won't affect the ruling."
Jeremy added, "This wouldn't be an issue if it were a media leak. But a lawyer showed up and claimed to be Xenia's representative. They even said they have new evidence to submit."
"Xenia's lawyer? Who hired them?" Noelle pressed. Knowing Xenia, that bitch wasn't capable of planning this far ahead.
Jeremy shook his head and glanced at the Liddell family. "You'll have to ask them."
Frank was shocked. "Where would Xenia get the money? And the terms I promised her were set to be fulfilled after the verdict.
"She's dead. How could she have made these arrangements?"
Carl spoke up. "Then it wasn't her who arranged it."
