Chapter 304 Chapter 304 After Noelles return , Nicolas immediately informed the Anderson family and brought her home .
As soon as they arrived at the Anderson family home , Kimberly rushed over , tears streaming down her face , and embraced Noelle .
Noelle ! Mom .
Noelle hugged her mother tightly , feeling a bit guilty .
Im sorry for worrying you .
Kimberly , sobbing uncontrollably , shook her head and said , Dont say sorry .
Dont , Noelle .
I know everything now .
fault .
Youve suffered so much over the years , and I didnt know .
When you first came home , we were so cold to you , and I didnt realize how much you were going through .
Im sorry , Noelle , forgive me ... Im sorry , 1 its my Noelle was momentarily stunned when her mother brought up how they treated her when she first returned .
She then revealed the truth to her mother . Mom , actually , when I first came back to the Anderson family , it was because of a mission .
The laboratory asked : me to build a relationship with you ... I know .
I know everything , Kimberly said , cupping Noelles face .
I heard it was part of an emotional test .
They wanted you to form a family bond so they could make you kill us , but you didnt .
You even left with Brandon to protect us , didnt you ? Yes , thats right .
Noelle nodded .
Kimberly hugged Noelle tightly , her eyes filled with warmth .
Noelle , you dont need to feel guilty .
The lab is at fault for everything .
You did nothing wrong .
Mom .
Hearing her mothers strong reassurance , Noelle finally felt relieved .
Although Nicolas had repeatedly told her that her family wouldnt blame her , Noelle still felt uneasy .
After all , it was because of her that her family had been put through such hardship , and Damon was still in the hospital .
She had prepared herself for a scolding , but to her surprise , when she came home , it was her mother who cried and apologized .
In that moment , Noelle felt a rush of emotion , overwhelmed by both sorrow and gratitude .
Noelle , welcome back .
A soft , slightly stammering voice called out .
Noelle turned and saw Elsie .
Her heart skipped a beat , and she rushed over , taking Elsies hand and saying .
Elsie , I heard the lab ordered you to hurt my family too , but you defied them .
Thank you Elsies round eyes sparkled as she looked at Noelle with a sweet smile .
Noelle , you dont have to thank me .
I just didnt want to make Adriel sad I know it ! I knew your love for Adriel could overcome the labs orders .
Noelle grinned , her joy palpable . Elsie laughed , her smile as sweet as ever , The two girls , both looking adorable , shared a moment of connection , their past struggles making everyone around them feel an overwhelming sense of affection for them .
Just then .
Adriel walked over , naturally wrapping his arm around Elsies shoulders .
Noelle , Damon is awake .
Do you want to go ser Yes Noelle replied immediately .
e of guilt toward Damon .
After all , he had nearly died twice Even though her family hadnt blamed her , Noelle felt the deepest sense of because of her .
When the first returned .
Damon had been so angry , threatening to kill her , but in the end , it had almost been the other way around- such a cruel twist of fate .
Nicolas walked over and placed his arm around Noelles waist .
He leaned down and softly said , Noelle .
Ill go with you to the hospital kay Noelle smiled at Nicolas Eli also walked over .
