However, as they neared the hotel, Hendrix instructed the driver to stop. He then turned to Noelle. “Shall we take a walk by the beach?”
He had actually had quite a bit to drink tonight. But his self control was impressive, for his eyes remained sharp and clear. If Noelle hadn’t seen him drink earlier, she wouldn’t have guessed it.
Before she could reply, he just pulled her out of the car.
It was nighttime, so it was not so crowded at the beach anymore.
During the day, the sea appeared clear and turquoise, but now, it blended with the pitch–black sky. Even the waves that lapped at their feet seemed to carry an eerie undertone.
Noelle didn’t like it much, but Hendrix seemed to be in the mood and kept pulling her forward
“I’ll be busy tomorrow, so I will get a tour guide to bring you around. What do you think?”
“It’s fine,” Noelle rejected him.
Hendrix was upset by this and turned around with a frown en his face.
Noelle took a deep breath. “I will wait for you at the hotel.”
With the same meaning, she phrased it differently, and Hendrix’s expression immediately softened, and he smiled.
Then, he suddenly grasped Noelle’s hand and pulled her toward him. The sudden closeness made Noelle feel uncomfortable, and she instinctively tried to step back
However, Hendrix sensed her intentions and quickly wrapped his arm around her waist. As a result, their distance grew even shorter, with Noelle almost pressed up against him. When she looked up, she found Hendrix staring directly at her.
His intense gaze made Noelle’s heart skip a beat, and she lowered her eyes.
Hendrix asked, “What did you say just now?”
“What?”
“Your last sentence.”
“I will wait for you in the hotel?”
“Yes, that one.
It seemed like Hendrix was very satisfied as he chuckled and pulled her into his arms.
Noelle was wearing flat sandals, and with the height difference between them, her face was pressed against his chest.
She could hear his strong heartbeat in her ears. Whether it was just her imagination or not, his heart seemed to race… faster?
Although Noelle couldn’t figure out what made Hendrix happy, she suddenly felt that this moment was a perfect. opportunity to speak up.

“Can I request something?”
“What is it?”

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...
