Xenia's eyes widened in shock at Noelle's words.
She looked at Noelle as if she had seen a ghost. How did this bitch know her father wasn't dead? When did Noelle find out? And what exactly had she discovered?
Panic surged inside Xenia. Just moments ago, she had finally regained some control, but now she was knocked right back to square one. She was completely flustered.
Donovan's mind went blank, and he stared at Noelle in disbelief. "How could Xenia's father possibly still be alive?"
"Because I saw her meeting with her supposedly long-dead father in secret. And they've been in contact this whole time." Noelle turned to Xenia.
"Remember the time Blake beat you up and kicked you out of the car? You went to a cafe and met someone. Don't tell me you've forgotten who that person was."
Xenia trembled with fear. Noelle really knew. But since when?
Fear overtook her, and she collapsed onto the lawn, too afraid to say another word. What should she do now?
Frank pressed, "Is it true? Is Xenia's father still alive? Where is he?"
"He's in hiding. I've searched for a long time and still haven't found his location," Noelle said calmly.
Xenia suddenly shouted, "Noelle, you're lying! My father's been dead for years! You must've mistaken someone else for him! I haven't met with my father!"
Since Noelle hadn't found his whereabouts, she couldn't admit it now.
Xenia hadn't gotten away yet. She was doomed if the Liddell family found out her father was still alive.
Donovan turned to Noelle and demanded, "What else did you find?"
