The Killer Queen (Noella Briony)

Chapter 372

“Don't worry! I'll protect Noella with my life," Palmer declared with a solemnity that left no doubt about his sincerity.

Years ago, when Palmer had rescued Merrick, stranded on an island during an international awards ceremony, Merrick knew that this man, betrothed to his granddaughter in name, was far more reliable than his own father had ever been. Hearing Palmer's earnest vow, Merrick nodded in approval.

"Noella, if you ever run into trouble, just let us know. Your old man of a grandpa can still smooth things over for you, and you've got me and your grandma here too!"

"Got it, Grandpa." Noella replied, breaking free from her shock. The most excited person, however, was Elara...

Holding her face, Elara felt as if she was floating. "Noella, I'm seeing double... Is it because I'm too happy? Ahhh, my sister is my idol; I must be the luckiest woman in the world!"

Ulrich commented dryly, "That's just your prescription getting stronger, you should get new glasses." "You don't get it! You don't have an idol; you wouldn't understand! Hey, how come you're here alone? Didn't bring Malvina along?” Ulrich rubbed his nose uncomfortably. "We had a fight. she blocked me. I tried to see her at Shadow Dragon Society, but got thrown out..."Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Elara immediately put on a gossip-hungry expression. "What? That's not like you, Ulrich, to just let Malvina throw you out without a fight. Didn't you try harder?”

"It's my fault, she'll cool off," Ulrich admitted, but refused to elaborate on the issue

Pressured by Elara, Ulrich finally looked up, trying to sound mature, "Kid stuff, stay out of adult business. If you're so curious, go find yourself someone.”

With that, he made a hasty retreat, planning to win Malvina over with gifts he got from Sienna Horwich! If only he hadn't been so overzealous, which upset Malvina...

Initially, Malvina was self-conscious about her not fully healed burn scars, fearing Ulrich would find them off-putting. But Ulrich, in his eagerness, had just started kissing her, leading to... misunderstandings.

Knowing he was at fault, Ulrich had become a regular at Shadow Dragon Society, hoping for a chance to speak with Malvina.

Realizing love could make you feel so humble, yet he was strangely okay with it.

Watching Ulrich’s swift departure, Elara was full of questions. "Has Ulrich lost it? If I were Malvina, I'd block him too!"

Stirling Schnabel frowned at Yasbel. “You keep calling Noella 'boss'; are you also a member of Polaris Star?”

Yasbel shrugged with a flirtatious toss of her hair. "Come closer, and I'll tell you. Too many ears around, and I'm shy.”

Considering Polaris Star members preferred to keep their pasts secret, Stirling leaned in

Yasbel whispered, "What if I said I'm your secret dad, would you believe me?" Then, seizing the moment of Stirling's shock, she dashed away! Stirling was left stunned. "Stop right there!"

"Ha, no way, that's what you get for stealing my roles!"

"When have I ever taken your roles? We're not even the same type!”

Hiding behind Noella, Yasbel rolled her eyes. “I had a deal almost closed, then your team swooped in. Stealing deals now, huh? That's low!” But it was more about the principle than the deal itself.

"Shameless, go eat dog food!" Yasbel snapped

Stirling was utterly confused. "I haven't taken any endorsements recently. How could I have stolen yours?"

Yasbel showed him the perfume endorsement on her phone. "Your assistant was negotiating for it. trying to steal my deal!”

Perfume endorsements could significantly boost an actor's commercial value

"I didn't know about this," Ulrich frowned.

‘I don't care er You're always so sly," Yasbel camplained, then turned to Pa mer, batting her eyelashes, "Mr. Po lack, give me achance. I'll sing yourpraises to Noella everyO mening!” Content belongs.to NovelDrama.Org -

Palmer raised an eyebrow. "I don't need you to speak well of me."

Yasbel was audacious! "As for the endorsement, talk to my secretary. If you fit our brand's image, we might consider you."

"No one's More suitable than me! I computed'the initial data for those perfumes. Hiring a top researcher and leading actress as the face of yourbrand is a deal you shouldn't pass up!" Content belongs.to NovelDrama.Org -

Palmer remained unimpressed.

"After all, being the face of Yasbel doesn't come cheap. What makes you think you've got the edge?"

Yasbel got it then. When you're dealing with a businessman, it's all about the bottom line. But Yasbel saw another angle Getting a discount was out of the question, but she had other cards to play!

“Our company's profit is my boss's profit! Mr. Pollack surely doesn't want the big boss burning the midnight oil just to scrape together funding for research, right?”

That argument was more persuasive than any other advantage!

Even the Schnabel family turned around en masse to ask Noella if she was running low on funds!

Beckett whipped out his smartphone, ready to make a transfer, and soon a series of successful transaction notifications chimed.. Palmer glanced at Yasbel.

"Consider your perfume endorsement in the bag with the Pollack Group from now on!”

"Mr. Pollack sure knows how to throw his weight around!”

Yasbel left with a spring in her step, not before giving Stirling a metaphorical kick in the shins...

“Beat it, loser!"
