The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 106
Chapter 106
Noelle studied Carl in front of her for a long moment before finally speaking, “Mr. Townsend, you should know who I am.”
“I do. I think we’ve even crossed paths at a few parties before, haven’t we?” Carl asked.
“I just got divorced,” Noelle added, her tone matter–of–fac
“Yes, I heard. I have to say, I admire how decisively you ended things with Hendrix.”
Clark responded to everything Noelle said with an easy smile, which left her uncomfortable. She finally sighed and said, “I’m not interested in dating anyone right now.”
“That’s fine,” Clark replied with a grin. “We don’t have to date. We can start as friends.”
Noelle found herself at a loss for words.
“Does that mean you agree? Great! Let’s go!” Clark said as he reached for her hand.
Startled, Noelle instinctively took two steps back.
Clark looked at her in confusion. “What’s wrong? Do you think my hand’s poisonous?”
“No, I suddenly remembered I have something to take care of. I can’t go.”
“Oh? What is it?”
“Work,” Noelle replied flatly.
“You still have work? What kind of work? Or are you just making up an excuse to brush me off?”
Noelle responded with a faint smile.
“Ah, so you are brushing me off. You really don’t want to go out with me, huh?” Clark said bluntly.
“We’re not a good match.”
“How can you say that when we haven’t even spent time together?” Clark protested.
“I’m boring. You won’t like me.”
“Is that so? But I don’t think you’re boring. I think you’ve been holding yourself back,” Clark said, his tone light but his gaze serious. “You should loosen up. Like when you danced that night. You were captivating
Noelle held his gaze, her breath catching for just a moment as his last words landed.
Clark continued, “How about this? Forget the movie. Let me take you to dinner instead. I’ll bring you somewhere fun, somewhere you can relax. What do you Say?”
Before Noelle could respond, he added, “It’s settled. Don’t bother telling me your address. I’ll wait for you 7:00 pm tonight‘

With that, Clark turned to leave. But after a few steps, he paused, pulling out his phone. “Actually, give me your number.”
Noelle didn’t respond.
Clark smirked. “You know, you don’t have to give it to me. could always ask Brandon. He’s bending over backward to get on my dad’s good side.”

Noelle stared at him for a moment before finally taking his phone and typing in her number.
Clark immediately called it, waiting until he heard her phone ring. Satisfied, he grinned. “Perfect! I’ll see you tonight. Don’t stand me up.”

Like how the story is progressing now but why is the author only releasing 3 chapters at a time? this is torture😩😩...
Woah chapters 41-45 is intense!! Good to see Noelle’s character who has come across as mostly detached actually express emotion....
I find Noelle’s character so frustrating, she comes across lacking any true emotion. The chapters where Rosie was missing was probably the most where we have seen some strong outward emotion shown. Dreading these next few chapters if she is going to do something drastic to “go find Seline” The author has taken us on a rollercoaster with these characters. The novel feels like it is at a stage now where they can come full circle....
A good change of pace and story in the last 10 chapters. Good to see the shift in Hendrix’s character (more patience) to win over Noelle and Rosie. Hope we start to see them warm up to him. Please no crazy twist where he loses them again. Have enjoyed this story and looking forward to its wrap up👨👩👧...
A good change of pace in the last 10 chapters. Also nice to see a shift in Hendrix’s character (more patience) to win Noelle and Rosie over. Hoping in these next few chapters we start to see Noelle and Rosie warm up to him. Please no crazy twist where he loses them again. Have enjoyed this story and looking forward to its wrap up 👨👩👧...
I have been in love with this novel but I don’t know how much patience I have to wait until the to finish line. Dear Author, can you atleast give us some idea about how long is this going to be or if there’s any turning point coming soon. And it would be great if you could upload at least 10 chapters at once. 5 chapters is making me more impatience with the anticipation of the further story of novel🙈...
I really hope there is a turning point in this story where Noelle starts to show some interest in Hendrix...
