When Noelle heard that, her heart started racing. However, she still had to stay calm at that moment. She figured everything would be alright if she could see Mia.
So, Noelle said angrily, "Well, tell her to stop hiding like a coward and get down here right now! Today, I'm forcing her to choose between you and me. Let's see if she's going to choose a mistress like you or a best friend like me!"
Ivy hated it when people called her a mistress, as her face fell immediately after she heard what Noelle said. Then, she coldly said, "Sure. Let's make her choose later. Stop thinking that you're important, Noelle.
"You're a nobody who's only fortunate enough to have Mr. Greene help you. Otherwise, someone like you would've died a long time ago."
If Ivy hadn't found out that Cedric was helping Noelle, she would've taken Noelle out a long time ago, like what she did to those who looked down on her in the past. However, in order to hide her true identity, Ivy had to endure it. She wanted to take care of PZ Group before worrying about it.
However, the time had finally come for her, and she wanted to see Noelle looking miserable. After waiting for a long time, Mia finally came downstairs with a housekeeper next to her.
Noelle glanced at the housekeeper and didn't recognize who that was. They had never met before, so she figured he was working under Ivy. Noelle also guessed that the housekeeper was the one hiding Mia earlier, and that made him dangerous, too.
After seeing Mia, Noelle scoffed. "You've finally stopped hiding, huh? I thought you were going to avoid me forever!"
Mia showed an awkward and fragile look, like how she used to be in the past. However, Noelle and Mia were best friends. Based on what Noelle knew of the latter, she figured Mia was only putting on an act.
Since Mia was being watched, they couldn't exchange information at that moment. So, Noelle said furiously, "Well, speak up! Why did you betray me for a mistress like her? Why did you hide the fact that Xenia had been staying with the Cantrells?"
