Chapter 276
Hendrix stared at the photo for a long time.
When Dan and the manager of the development department came to report, they noticed that he wasn’t responding. It was at this moment that Dan noticed Hendrix looked off. “Mr. Freeman?”
Upon hearing Dan’s voice, Hendrix finally looked up. His eyes remained calm when he did so.
Dan even thought he saw it wrongly, but he didn’t say anything and just handed him the documents. “These are from the development department. You need to sign them.
Hendrix nodded and took his pen while Dan and the others stood beside him, waiting
Based on Hendrix’s usual speed in scanning through and signing the documents, it usually took only a few short seconds. But this time, they noticed that his gaze remained fixed on the first page.
“Mr. Freeman?”
Dan could only remind him, but the manager’s voice was already shaking. “Mr. Freeman, i–is something wrong?”
Hendrix did not say anything and just flipped through the pages before landing the tip of his pen on the signature
line.
However, he stopped there. Dan could see the veins on his hands as well as his shaking fingers.
“Mr. Freeman, are you okay? Are you feeling sick?”
Hendrix did not reply, nor could he reply. At this moment, he felt like something was stuck in his throat, and he could feel a bloody taste in his mouth as something surged up from his stomach.
However, he tried his best to swallow it back downL
He didn’t know what to do.
He couldn’t even read a single word on the documents. He also had no idea how to sign the name he had signed ever since he was young.
Finally, the fountain pen scratched a harsh line across the paper.
The person standing nearby was so terrified that he couldn utter a word, his mind frantically searching for the content of that particular document while mentally cursing their entire department.
Amity Group had recently seen quite a few employees leave leaving everyone walking on eggshells. People didn’t even dare to look at Hendrix for more than a second on a normal day.
He couldn’t believe that today was his turn!
Hendrix suddenly closed the papers and said, “Get out.”
“Huh?” the man blurted out instinctively, but Dan quickly gestured for him to go out.
When the door closed, the man asked Dan, “Mr. Hurley, is the document okay? Mr. Freeman seems kind of pissed just now. Did 1…“.

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👨👩👧...

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...
