All Chapters of The Sway and Slide of Love: Chapter 701 - Chapter 710

Hendrix didn't care about any of that. As soon as he entered the room, the first thing he did was pull Noelle behind him."No matter how great you think Dylan is, Noelle is now my wife. And that's something you can't change," he said firmly.Marla fell silent.Seeing this, Noelle quickly stepped in to smooth things over. "I'm sorry, Mrs. Swift. He didn't mean it that way."She then turned to Hendrix and said, "Can't you tell Mrs. Swift was just joking? Apologize to her now.""No, that won't be necessary," Marla interjected before Noelle could pull Hendrix's hand. "In fact, I think what you said earlier was correct. This matter truly has nothing to do with me—I've overstepped."The doctor said Marshall needs plenty of rest. I appreciate you both coming to visit him, but I think it's best if you leave now."Compared to earlier, Marla's expression had noticeably darkened.Noelle wanted to explain further, but Hendrix seemed almost eager to leave. He simply nodded without waiting f

Rosie even sounded a little gleeful, to be honest. Wasn't it said that daughters were supposed to be their parents' little angels? So, what did that make her?Hendrix remained standing where he was, his brows slowly furrowing.Noelle stayed locked in her room until dinnertime. She didn't say much, remaining silent throughout the meal. In fact, she didn't even spare him a glance.After dinner, Hendrix finally found a chance to ask her, "Will you come back with me later?""No," Noelle replied without even needing to think about it.Hendrix couldn't help but frown. He reached out to take her hand, but Noelle brushed him off before he could.Just as he was about to grab Noelle's shoulder, Beatrice said, "Hendrix, why don't you go back first?"Hendrix turned around and said in a low voice, "Mom."But Beatrice acted as if she hadn't heard him. Instead, she said to Noelle, "Since tomorrow's the weekend and Rosie doesn't have school, why don't the two of you stay here for a couple of d

Beatrice shared a lot with Noelle that night.When she first invited Noelle to have a drink, Noelle had assumed she was going to persuade her on Hendrix's behalf. But instead, Beatrice ended up telling her countless stories about Hendrix's childhood.At one point, she even went to pick up an album of Hendrix's photos to show Noelle. It was clear that while part of Hendrix's personality had been shaped by the Freeman family's upbringing, another part was simply innate.While other children's first birthday and kindergarten photos were full of lively, mischievous expressions, Hendrix's was always the same—serious and composed. The man he was now seemed like an exact, grown-up version of the boy in those pictures.By the end of the night, Noelle had almost forgotten the original purpose of her conversation with Beatrice. The two of them spent hours flipping through the photo album and chatting about Hendrix. They even managed to finish two bottles of wine.Although Noelle didn't expe

"Forget it," Noelle quickly said. "There's no point in me asking when he obviously doesn't want to tell me."Beatrice hadn't expected the conversation to take this turn. She was about to explain on Hendrix's behalf when Noelle took Rosie's hand. "Let's go rest over there."Rosie nodded eagerly at Noelle's suggestion. She had been riding for a while, and her cheeks were flushed from the sun.Beatrice watched them leave, then quietly pulled out her phone to send a message to Hendrix.…"I'm in Tilwick. It'll probably take two or three days to handle things here. You and Rosie should stay at Sienna Villa for now. I'll pick you up when I get back.""I'm at the airport.""The plane is about to take off.""Just got off the plane. Heading to the hotel now."…These were the messages Hendrix sent to Noelle throughout his trip. He even included several photos corresponding to each update.Noelle stared at the endless stream of messages, her fingers hovering over the screen for a mome

Noelle turned to look at Rosie.She was pouting unhappily. But when she locked eyes with Noelle, she thought for a moment and then said, "Mommy, I want a little sister, not a little brother."…In the end, Noelle went to the airport alone. On the way, she happened to pass by a flower shop and decided to go inside to buy a bouquet of flowers. It wasn't until she was standing at the airport with the flowers in her hand that she realized something was off.Why was she giving Hendrix flowers? But since she had already bought them, it seemed wasteful to throw them away. Thus, she continued to hold them as she waited.The flight arrived soon enough. Noelle watched as passengers began to stream out, but Hendrix was nowhere to be seen.She couldn't help but frown. Just as she was about to call him, an unfamiliar number popped up on her screen.For some reason, her heart skipped a beat when she saw that number.She answered the call. "Hello?""Is this Mrs. Freeman?" It was a woman's
