Chapter 96 Noelle wondered if the reporter had mistaken her for a member of Team Luminark. Her expression remained cold as she calmly replied, "I wouldn't know. I'm not part of that team anymore." Her words left the reporters stunned. Was the eldest daughter of the Liddell family not a part of Team Luminark? Was it skind of joke? Could the rumors about her falling out with the Liddell family be true? The reporter immediately turned to Lucas. "Mr. Lucas, do you have any comments? Why isn't Ms. Liddell part of the team? I heard rumors of a conflict between you two. Is that accurate?" Faced with the reporter's probing questions, Lucas opened his mouth but could not say a single word.
Xenia held onto Lucas' arm and said smilingly, "Oh, it's nothing serious. Noelle has just been throwing a little tantrum with the family recently. After all, we're family. She's benefited from the family's resources for many years to get to where she is today. I'm sure she wouldn't do something as ungrateful as turning her back on us." Rachel couldn't hold back any longer. "Xenia, do you even hear yourself? What nonsense are you spouting?" That was not what happened. It was evident that Xenia was trying to manipulate the narrative in front of the reporters.

The reporter followed up, asking, "If I'm not mistaken, that would be the streamer SweetNelly, right? She's a gunner as well, and an incredibly skilled one! Rumor has it she'll be attending tonight's event, but we don't know what she looks like." The reporter's gaze shifted to Noelle upon the last statement, hinting at the rumor that Noelle might be SweetNelly.
Xenia didn't want to stay outside anymore, so she took out her invitation and handed it over. Then, she looked at Noelle and said, "Noelle, I'm sorry, but each invitation only allows one guest." Lucas' voice was gruff as he looked at Noelle and said, "I didn't know you wanted to attend. Next time, tellearlier." He could have obtained more invitations, but he didn't know that Noelle also wanted to attend.
Noelle's expression was calm. "There's no need." "Lucas, how could you be so careless? Since when has our family ever been short on invitations?" Frank strode in with a polished demeanor.
The reporters immediately went up to him.
"Mr. Frank, is your appearance at this event related to the streamer SweetNelly?" "It's been rumored that you have a close relationship with her. Could you clarify that?" Frank smiled. "Yes, we do share a connection. I chere today because of her, too." The reporters buzzed with excitement. It seemed like there really was a story.
Frank looked at Noelle. "Noelle, lettake you inside." With that, he extended his hand out to her.

Rachel beamed with pride while she looked at Xenia. "See that? An actual invitation! Unlike certain Unlike certain freeloaders pretending to belong, our Noelle is an official guest!"
Xenia felt angry from being embarrassed. "Noelle, I thought you said that you wouldn't rely on then Liddell family anyheten wondered how Noelle could have received an invitation without the Liddell family's influence. Lucas stared at the invitation in disbelief. "Noelle, how did you get this?"
Before she could respond, Rachel answered proudly, "Because she's SweetNelly herself!"
