Chapter 188
Noelle seemed to be followed by someone.
Her job was to stay at home and paint, so she didn’t have many opportunities to go out, but once or twice a week, she would go out to buy some groceries.
Normally, her outings were at random times, so it wasn’t likely anyone would be following her.
And because of that, whenever she turned around, she didn’t notice anything unusual, so she didn’t really pay attention to it.
Until one day, when she was heading to the supermarket, a motorcycle suddenly sped toward her.
The motorcycle had a clear intention, and it was heading straight for her. Noelle was startled and took several steps back, just as someone else happened to be walking by!
The motorcycle zipped past her and drove off into the distance.
The howling wind seemed to still echo in Noelle’s ears, and her whole body froze as she was too scared to move.
What stood out most to her was the look in the man’s eyes when he had glanced at her. It was as if he was going to tear her life apart, but Noelle knew very well that she didn’t recognize him.
She didn’t want to think too much about it. At this point, she decided to skip the supermarket, pulled her coat tighter around her, and walked back home.
After shutting the door, she felt her heart, which had been racing, finally start to calm down. Since she couldn’t go to the supermarket, she ordered takeout, and as usual, left a note for the delivery person to just leave the food at
the door.
However, half an hour later, someone knocked on her door
“Your food is here,” a low voice sounded.
Noelle frowned, but she still replied from her room, “Put it outside the door!”
Nobody answered.
After waiting for two minutes, Noelle walked toward the door. After making sure there was nobody outside, she opened the door.
However, there was no food outside.
Noelle froze for a moment. Just as she was about to call the delivery man, a cold blade pressed against her neck!
What chilled her even more was the voice that followed, “Luna, long time no see.”
Noelle’s face immediately changed, and as she quickly turned her head, she saw William’s face.
Before she could react, he shoved her hard. He was so strong that she staggered a few steps, and before she could steady herself, he slammed the door shut.
Then, he looked around, clicking his tongue. “How did you end up living in such a dump? Didn’t that little guy from the Freeman family give you any assets after your divorce? Wasn’t it all for nothing after you spent all those years with him?”
Noelle didn’t answer. She just kept watching him as she retreated.
Despite her body still trembling from fear, her mind quickly calmed down. Once she had put enough distance
between them, she immediately turned and bolted toward her room.

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...
