Chapter 225
After smoking two sticks of cigarettes, Hendrix finally calmed down. Then, he made a call.
Julio answered the call very quickly. “Hello, Mr. Freeman?”
Hendrix tossed the lighter onto the center console and said “I’ve thought about the collaboration, sincerity, you’ll have to show me.”

Back at Galaxy Grove, by the time Noelle finished showering, Dylan was still working in the living room. He had his Bluetooth earphones on while typing on his keyboard.
Noelle called out to him.
“Give me a second,” he said to someone on the line and looked at Noelle.
“Are you not going back tonight?” she asked.
“Yeah. There’s still some issue in the house. I’m going on a business trip next week, so can I stay here for a few days?” he asked.
Alright. Just use anything in the guest room. Make yourself comfortable.”
With that said, Noelle turned around, but Dylan stopped her. “I have prepared some cough syrup for you in the kitchen. Take some.”
Noelle wanted to tell him that she was almost recovered, but she saw Dylan had already refocused on his work. In the end, she didn’t say anything and just went to the kitchen…
The cough syrup did wonders because Noelle’s throat felt much better after taking it.
Just when she was about to wash the cup, Dylan walked over from the living room.
“Did anything happen to you in this period of time?” he asked as he leaned on the kitchen door.
Noelle asked back, “What can happen to me?”
“Alright. My grandpa’s birthday is next month. Follow me back?”
“Sure.”
“I mean back to Coppersville. Are you okay with that?”
Noelle chuckled. “Why not? Can’t I go back to that place?”
“Not like that, but isn’t your ex–husband there? I was just worried you might not want to see him ”
“Your grandpa’s birthday party has nothing to do with him, right?” Noelle placed the washed cup down and turned to him. “Also, I didn’t do anything wrong, so why should I be afraid of seeing him?”
Besides, Hendrix wasn’t in Coppersville now.
But Noelle didn’t say the last part to Dylan because… it wasn’t necessary.
“That’s great. I was worried you might feel uncomfortable, so I have not said anything to Grandpa yet.”
Noelle walked past him and said, “Don’t worry. Since I agreed back then, I’ll cooperate and play the part well. But as for anything else… Mr. Pritchett, I’d advise you not to cross the line.”

The readers' comments on the novel: The Sway and Slide of Love
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...
