Noelle looked at Dylan for a long while, then smiled. “No need. Just stay with me like this.”
Dylan reached out and pulled her into his arms. His hug wasn’t tight, and the faint fragrance on his body instantly filled Noelle’s nose.
Noelle made no effort to resist but slowly reached out and Wrapped her arms around his waist.
“How’s your father?” Dylan asked her.
“Acute stroke,” she said softly. “But we got to the hospital on time, and the doctor said that as long as he wakes up, everything will be fine.”
“Mm, how about you go back and rest? I’ll keep an eye on things here.”
“No. I won’t be able to sleep even if I go back. Haven’t you noticed my phone hasn’t stopped ringing?”
Dylan didn’t reply.
Noelle didn’t know if he was feeling guilty for being unable to help her, so she said, “The wedding doesn’t need to be postponed. Your grandfather has been looking forward to it for so long, so we can’t disappoint him.”
“But…”
“Don’t worry. I can still spare a day, and with Elm Group in such a critical situation, people might start to speculate that you’re planning to run away if you postpone the wedding, “Noelle said, then paused and looked at Dylan. “You don’t really think that, do you?”
“Of course not,” Dylan replied immediately.
Seeing his tense and serious expression, Noelle smiled slightly and nodded. “That’s good. Although I could understand if you did think that…”
Before she could finish, Dylan pinched her cheek. “What are you imagining? I’m just worried you’re too tired.”
Noelle shook her head.
Then, she took the initiative to bury her face in Dylan’s chest and softly said, “And this wedding is actually good for me, too. With my dad’s ill health, there will definitely be people trying to take advantage of the situation.
“But if we get married, at least they’ll think twice because I still have family backing me up.”
Family.

Although this wasn’t the position Dylan had expected, he suddenly felt that this word was the most romantic word in the world.
He didn’t say anything further and slowly reached out to hold her close.
Even though Noelle had told him she didn’t need him to stay, Dylan insisted on staying. With her phone constantly ringing, he figured his presence in the hospital room would help her feel a bit more at ease.
When Noelle returned to the room after hanging up yet another call, she noticed Sandra had somehow arrived. This was likely the first time Sandra and Dylan had met.
Sandra wore her usual sweet smile and cheerfully greeted Dylan, who smiled in response.
For some reason, Noelle thought back to the time Sandra had greeted Hendrix. How had Hendrix responded back then?

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. Hoping in these next few chapters we start to see Noelle and Rosie 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...
