Unwanted Girl Spoiled

Chapter 270 Chapter 270 The moment Noelle responded, Bennetts expression shifted.

He stared at her pale face and opened his mouth to speak.

Noelle, you a warm smile, But before he could finish, Brandon had already stepped forward and wrapped his arm around Noelles shoulders.

With a w he said.

Thats more like it.

I knew you were the best.

Noelle said nothing In front of Brandon, she didnt really have a say in anything.

Whether she could or couldnt he always had the final word.

That afternoon, the second round of endurance testing began..

Compared to the morning session, this one required Noelle to push 45 minutes beyond the previous limit.

When the researchers heard the news, they were shocked and pulled Bennett aside.

Bennett, is Noelle really going to do another round today? And for even longer? Isnt that pushing her too hard? Bennetts face was grim.

He didnt answer.

When he first learned of Brandons request for another test, his instinct had been to go straight to the institute director and protest.

After all, as Noelles brother and a lead researcher, he had spull around here.

But the directors response was clear for the sake of scientific progress and the future of humanity, ssacrifices were necessary.

And now that it had cto light that Noelle was a product of a human experimentation lab with physical capabilities far exceeding a normal person her involvement in the project was seen as a once in a lifetbreakthrough.

The director had been under pressure from higher ups for lack of progress. Noelles arrival had solved everything So even knowing the risk, he still backed Brandons decision.

Bennett had also received a chilling warning: if he couldnt accept this direction, he was free to walk away. And if he dared leak anything to the outside world ... hed be silenced before he ever had the chance. With even the director siding with Brandon, Bennett had no choice but to fall in line.

Sull, he walked over to Brandon and eyed him coldly.

Half joking, he said, Forty five extra minutes? Are you sure this isnt an attempt on Noelles life? Brandon shot him a glance, lips curling into a smile.

Mr.

Anderson, you must be joking.

How could I ever hurt Noelle ? Brandon met his gaze, looking surprisingly innocent.

I dont expect you to believe me, but Noelle is more important tothan myself.

Bendes, you dont have to worry so much shes stronger than you think.

Shes a miracle, really Then his eyes fell to the girl strapped into the test chair below, gleaming with something dangerous an obsession that burned just beneath the surface.

Just watch Shell pass this test flawlessly Bennett caught that look- wild, fervent, almost unhinged and for the first time, he felt a chill.

There was love in Brandons eyes but it was terrifying (the end, Brandon Norte stod through and completed the extended session.

rond the announcement cthrough the test was complete, she collapsed, crumpling to the floor, too weak to move Noelle Bennett rushed from the observation deck in a panic.

Brandon, however, stayed calon Ite walked up to the intercon pressed the button, and asked, Noelle, can you hear me? Her body barely stirred, but she turned her head toward the voice and, barely conscious, whispered, Brandon ....

? 2:24 PM c c · Chapter 270 You did it, Brandon said, smiling.

You were amazing.

At this rate, in less than a week, we can begin the full memory read write testing.

Congratulations.

Noelle.

Noelle, however, couldnt find it in herself to feel proud.

Her entire body was in agony.

Her head throbbed so violently she thought it might split open.

And knowing this was only the beginning that it would get even worse made her want to give up entirely.

Maybe that was fine.

After all, she was just a tool.

Brandon told her to endure, and so she would.

Noelle closed her eyes, letting the darkness take over.

Meanwhile, back in Reniam City, Nicolas returned and went straight to the research institute to find N Noelle.

She hadnt answered his calls, and his team reported she hadnt left the facility.

That alone gave him a terrible feeling Every tshe got involved with these labs, it ended badly.

As soon as the car pulled up outside the institute, he stepped out and saw a petite girl being helped toward the exit by a tall man.

The girl was Noelle.

And the man, Nicolas guessed, had to be Brandon .

Noelle ! he called out.

Though her mind was foggy and her body weak, the second she heard his voice, her head snapped up. Niedlas? she breathed, not trusting her ears. But when her eyes met his, everything inside her crumbled.

Every ounce of pain and misery cflooding out at once.

Without another thought, she tore herself away from Brandon and stumbled toward the gates.

Nicolas ! Nicolas ! Nicolas ! The gate was tall and heavy, but she didnt care.

With one leap, she cleared it and landed unsteadily on the other side.

Nicolas was already there, catching her in his arms.

Noelle, he murmured, pulling her close as she buried her face in his chest, trembling and clinging to him like her life depended on it, He didnt know what she had been through but the way she clung to him made it clear; she was hurting. Tve got you, sweetheart.

Youre safe now.

Im here.

He gently rubbed her back, whispering soft reassurances, not daring to make a sound louder than a ΝΟ breath Back at the gate, Brandon stood silently, watching the scene unfold. He saw everything the way she ran to Nicolas, the way her eyes lit up, how she seemed to find strength again just from being near him.

She had forgotten about him entirely Brandons gaze darkened.

So thats how it is.

Noelle.

He loved her o someone els Braculous sonide slowly faded, replaced by an icy stillness.

Nurtle he thought, youve madeangry.
