Chapter 120
On the way to Serene Street, Hendrix noticed a post from Brandon on his feed.
The location was marked as Sintrun, but he wasn’t alone. Hendrix could see a person in a white trench coat in the corner of the photo, Who else could it be but Noelle?
Hendrix frowned and said without a second thought, “Stop the car.”
The driver glanced at him in confusion, but before he could respond, Hendrix had already locked his phone. “Turn around. Head to Amity Tower.”
The taxi ran on a metered fare, so the driver didn’t protest, only muttering under his breath as he turned the vehicle around.
Hendrix sat there, staring blankly out the window.
After tapping a few times on his phone screen, he finally dialed his assistant. “Book me a flight to Sintrun.”
Noelle was currently in Sintrun. The movie was adapted from her work, but her involvement in the screenplay. wasn’t significant, so this trip wasn’t strictly necessary.
However, Sandra’s engagement banquet happened to be over these two days. So, she made up her mind and came right away.
What she hadn’t expected was that Brandon would come along, too.
“I don’t want to go to that engagement banquet, either,” Brandon said to her in the restaurant. His tone made it seem like they were on the same side.
Noelle simply smiled.
Brandon raised his wine glass, she clinked hers against his.
“You haven’t been in touch with Clark recently?” Brandon asked her again.
Noelle simply hummed in response. Then, she asked, “Didn’t your collaboration with Tidalwave Holdings already wrap up?
“It did, but Clark and I are also friends. Seeing him so downcast, I can’t help but feel a bit concerned.”
Noelle paused before setting her wine glass down. “He’s fine. He deserves someone who loves him passionately.” “Can’t that person be you?”
Noelle lifted her gaze. “Since when did Mr. Quinlan become a matchmaker?”
Brandon chuckled. “If my friends can find happiness, I’d naturally be glad.”
Noelle didn’t respond further.
The two of them quietly finished their meal. Afterward, they returned to the hotel together.
For the sake of convenience, Brandon had reserved a room on the same floor, right next to Noelle’s.
Just as the elevator doors were about to close, a figure suddenly flashed by outside, and the doors reopened. Brandon was momentarily stunned when he saw who was standing outside. Then, almost instinctively, he turned

to observe Noelle’s reaction.
She was clearly startled as well. But she quickly averted her gaze and lowered her head, as if she hadn’t seen anything.
“Mr. Freeman, what a coincidence!” It was Brandon who broke the silence first.

Hendrix simply nodded at him with an impassive expression before stepping inside. He pressed the button panel next to him.

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.

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...
