No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 1216

Without Cedric's network and financial capabilities, the investigation wouldn't have gone so smoothly. Cedric pondered for a moment and asked, "So, do you have someone you like in your dream?"

Noelle was stunned when she heard that, and she asked in a daze, "Why are you asking that?"

"Can't I ask that? Don't worry. I won't be mad." He purposely sounded magnanimous.

When Noelle became drunk the other day, she told him she had someone she liked. However, he was unable to determine who it was. After that, a lot happened, and he didn't ask her about it as well.

At that moment, Cedric figured the person she liked might be the person from her dream. So, he decided he wouldn't be jealous because of someone who didn't exist.

She looked at him on the phone and said, "Well, what do you think? After all, there's only one person who has ever been nice to me in my dream."

After saying that, she ended the call.

Meanwhile, Cedric just stared at his phone and thought about what she had just said. Then, he chuckled. After all, he was the one who was nice to her in the dream.

With that thought in mind, his mood improved immediately. It turned out the person she liked had always been him, and that had always been true.

Then, Cedric wondered why he didn't save Noelle from the mental hospital in the dream. He thought it didn't make sense at all. He even suspected Carl of not telling the whole truth because he knew he would never leave Noelle to die.

After that, she looked at the room she was in and realized she wasn't at the mental hospital. That was when she said with her face covered, "So, it was a dream, huh?"

She thought her rebirth was just a dream that satisfied her wild wishes. When the dream ended, she would return to the mental hospital to wait for her death.

Frank brought her a glass of warm milk and said, "You must've had a bad dream. Have a drink to calm yourself down first."

She accepted the drink and looked up at him. "Why are you here?"

She wondered if he heard her sleep-talking.
