Frank felt frustrated. He had specifically arranged all of this to please Noelle. However, Xenia ended up stealing the spotlight.
Although it was a misunderstanding, he still didn''t feel right about it. Every time he tried to reconcile with Noelle, Xenia appeared at the wrong moment, only to make things worse.
Xeni looked at Noelle with red eyes and a pitiful expression. "Noelle, I really didn''t mean to cause this. I thought you were hiding your identity to get a better internship experience here." Noelle''s lips curled into a cold smile. She couldn''t help but admire how quickly Xenia''s mind worked.
It was no wonder she ended up losing to Xenia in her previous life. But when Isaac saw Xenia crying, he immediately stood up for her. "Mr. Liddell, I don''t think this is Ms. Quigley''s fault. Ms. Liddell could have revealed her identity at any time but chose not to. Who''s to me?"
He thought he looked quite heroic standing up for her. Maybe Xenia would even develop feelings for him.
Frank shot him a cold look. "So, you''re the man who hit Noelle yesterday, right? I''ve been looking for you."
Isaac''s face immediately turned pale. "She attacked me first."
"That was because you used foulnguage toward her. You can pack up and leave."
Isaac immediately panicked. This wasn''t how he had expected things to go. He quickly looked toward Xenia for help. Gritting her teeth, Xenia said, "Frank, he just fixed the firewall and solved a big problem. We can''t just fire him like this."
Frank was surprised. "Wasn''t it Noelle who fixed the firewall?"
Bobby quickly rified, "Ms. Liddell said her code was stolen."
He knew about the project, and since Noelle had been involved from the start, she must have the skills.
As the IT department''s team leader, Isaac had been unable to solve the firewall issue for so long. How could he suddenly fix it?
Isaac defended himself. "I didn''t steal it. I wrote the code myself."
Xenia added, "Noelle said he stole her code, but there should be evidence."
Without evidence, even if Noelleined about it, it wouldn''t matter.
Frank nced at Noelle, his voice suspicious. "Noelle, are you sure it was him?"
Noelle''s eyes were filled with derision. "Yes!"
James immediately looked at Bobby. "Go check the surveince footage."
"Yes, check the surveince!"
ve
However, Bobby returned with a grim expression. "I checked the surveince, but the footage in the lobby is broken. There''s nothing from these past few days.
Xenia couldn''t hide her smugness. She had known this would happen. She feigned urgency. "What do we do now?"
Isaac grinned with satisfaction.
??
"Who can prove I stole the code without evidence? Just because you''re the heiress doesn''t mean you can nder me."
Xenia smiled, tooking worried as she turned to Frank. "Frank, I know Noelle is trying to solve this problem for you. We all know how hard she''s worked, but she shouldn''t just steal someone else''s work for the sake of the result."
Frank was deep in thought, feeling troubled and irritated.
He tugged at his tie and said to James, "Go find other evidence."
"Who says there''s no evidence?"
Noelle pulled out her phone and brought upst night''s surveince footage.
It clearly showed everything that happened the night before. Isaac swaggered over to herputer, copied her data, and even tampered with her code. Everything was crystal clear.
