The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 255
Chapter 255
“Don’t you have work to do? Or do you think it’s not enough?” Noelle asked flatly.
“No, no. I’ll leave right now,” Oliver quickly responded as he gathered his things before heading out.
Her expression still unreadable, Noelle didn’t pay him any more attention. But when she turned back to her computer, the content of the emails suddenly seemed overwhelmingly chaotic, and she couldn’t focus on a single
word.
In the end, she stood up. However, when she reached the door, she slowly calmed herself. She then returned to her desk and resumed working.
In the evening, Hendrix sent her a text, asking if she wanted to have dinner together. Noelle didn’t reply, so he sent two more texts before finally calling her.
“I have something to do,” Noelle answered.
“Which is? Are you working late? That doesn’t mean you don’t need to eat
“I’m having dinner with Dylan,” Noelle cut him off.
Hendrix immediately fell silent.
She could feel the tension and silence on the other end of the line, and the mood that had been heavy all day suddenly lightened. She didn’t say anything else and simply hung up the phone.
In truth, Noelle wasn’t doing it on purpose–she had really made dinner plans with Dylan. They had just spoken on the phone last night, but Dylan wasn’t aware of the changes that had happened since.
But as an ally, Noelle knew she needed to update him on her current situation.
“So?” Dylan chuckled. “Are you trying to tell me you want to end things?”
“Do you want to end it?” Noelle asked him.
Dylan paused. “What do you mean?”
“I haven’t made anything public with him, nor will I. So, it doesn’t really affect our current agreement.
After Noelle finished speaking, Dylan remained silent for a long while.
At first, Noelle thought he was angry. But since she had indeed gone behind his back, she didn’t offer an explanation. She simply sat there, waiting for Dylan to say something
The next moment, Dylan burst out laughing. It was as if he had heard the funniest joke ever, laughing so hard that his shoulders shook uncontrollably.
Noelle frowned and looked at him.
Dylan realized his lack of composure, but he couldn’t control himself, so he covered his mouth and nose in an attempt to stifle his laughter.
It took him over a minute for him to gradually calm down, but when he finally looked at Noelle, he still couldn’t quite hold back a smile.
“So, in the end, he agreed to the condition you mentioned? He’s willing to be your secret lover?”

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...
