The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 114

Chapter 114 

It was Noelle’s first time seeing Hendrix like that. In fact, his current expression was far more interesting than his typical calm and composed demeanor. 

Noelle also finally realized at that moment that his emotions were triggered due to her. That was really interesting 

But it made sense. Any man who heard what she said earlier would be enraged. In contrast, she was feeling extremely at ease. 

She met his gaze for a moment before asking, “Didn’t I make it clear earlier? I said…” 

Before she could finish speaking. Hendrix suddenly raised his hand. 

Noelle was very familiar with that movement. After all, she had experienced slaps often since she was a child. She even shut her eyes subconsciously, waiting for his slap. Yet the expected sting did not happen for a long time. 

She slowly blinked open her eyes. Hendrix’s hand still hung in midair. His brows were still furrowed, and she noticed that the vein on his temple was throbbing. 

Noelle ended up laughing after looking at him. “Slap me, then. Why aren’t you hitting me?” 

What was the difference between a man wanting to hit a woman versus a man who already slapped a woman? 

None. 

At that moment, Noelle was even looking forward to his slap. That way, she would be completely disappointed in 

Hendrix 

She could then convince herself that she had fallen for a loser over the past few years. He was a cold and heartless man who even laid a hand on her. 

Noelle could even tell herself that the few moments they had together from the past were fake as w well. The memories were like faint sun rays that faded away on their own before she could even touch them. 

It was quite ridiculous since many thoughts ran through Noelle’s mind while she was in bed with Hendrix that night. It was her first time being close enough to hear his heartbeat, and it was also her first time truly feeling the warmth of his arms. 

Noelle even wondered why he did not continue having sex with her in the shower. Was it because of the complaints next door, or was it purely because he cared for her? 

The wounds in her heart had clearly reminded her not to fall in love with Hendrix. After all, Noelle already had a taste of what it was like to fall for him. 

Within two years, her warm heart had turned to ice, and Noelle finally convinced herself to for him one more time, she was afraid she might lose her dignity for good. 

leave him. If she fell 

However, Noelle couldn’t help but feel moved. She even imagined that the deal between them was Hendrix’s foolish idea of making her stay. After all, he had always been prideful and distinguished. 

Since she and Hendrix were divorced, he definitely would set his pride aside to say anything. That must have been why he suggested the deal.
