The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 109
Chapter 109
Noelle didn’t answer. She slowly took the stuffed animal from Clark’s hands.
Clark immediately noticed something was off. “What’s wrong?”
Noelle didn’t respond. She lowered her eyes and murmured, “It’s nothing. Let’s go.”
“What happened?” he asked, his voice tinged with concern
She took a deep breath. “Someone bumped into me just now.”
Clark froze for a second. Then, as realization sank in, his expression shifted. “Which one?”
“What?”
“I said, which one?” His voice was sharp, and without waiting for her answer, he turned, scanning the crowd.
At that moment, the man who’d bumped into Noelle walked up to another girl, still wearing that same sleazy grin.
“Is that him?” Clark asked, eyes narrowing.
Before Noelle could respond, he had already rushed forward and punched the man in the nose.
“How dare you?” he yelled.
“Mr. Freeman, the painting’s been delivered. Here’s the acceptance form,” Dan said, handing Hendrix the paper.
Hendrix nodded without a word.
Dan hesitated. “Mrs. Freeman called earlier. She knows about your purchase of Mr. York’s piece. She also asked if you had any personal plans recently.”
Hendrix looked up.
Before he could speak, Dan hurried to add, “Don’t worry. I didn’t say anything.”
Hendrix didn’t respond, but his demeanor softened slightly
Feeling a bit bolder, Dan asked, “Mr. Freeman, about the painting-
Before he could finish, Hendrix’s phone rang
Hendrix frowned when he saw the caller ID. As soon as he heard the voice, his expression turned cold.
Dan had worked with him for years, but this was the first time he’d seen Hendrix appear so terrifying
In that instant, he noticed the veins in Hendrix’s hands bulging, his lips pressed tight, and his eyes darkened with a chilling intensity.
“I understand,“Hendrix said, his voice unnervingly calm.
He hung up the phone, and Dan’s heart skipped a beat. Still he hesitated before asking, “Mr. Freeman, what-” Before he could finish, Hendrix was already on his feet, grabbing the car keys and heading out the door.
Dan stood frozen for a second, letting out a quiet breath of relief before Hendrix’s voice broke the silence. “Follow
me.”

Dan blinked in surprise but quickly obeyed, not daring to question it. He hurried to catch up to Hendrix.

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...
