The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 37
Chapter 37
Hendrix’s gaze didn’t linger on Noelle, as if he had no interest in knowing why she was there. Instead, he stood rooted to his spot, waiting for… Sandra.
After a glance, Noelle withdrew her gaze and asked Sandra, ‘What do you want?”
Sandra begged. “Come home with me, Noelle. Don’t fight with Mom and Dad anymore, alright?”
“Sorry, but I’m not going back” Noelle was adamant.
Not giving up just yet, Sandra turned to Evelyn. “Are you Noelle’s friend? Would you please tell her to come
“She’s an adult. She doesn’t need you worrying about her decisions, okay?” Evelyn said after a chuckle.
Stumped, Sandra quickly responded, “But Mom and Dad are sad! Noelle, can you really watch them lose appetite and sleep over worrying you? How can you be this heartless“.
Then, tears began rolling down her face. That sight impressed Evelyn. “You’ve got quite an acting talent. Have you ever considered joining the entertainment industry?”
Her sarcastic question baffled Sandra.
Before she could say anything, Noelle dragged Evelyn away. “Let’s go.”
“Noelle!” Sandra refused to give up this chance, extending her hand to pull Noelle.
However, Noelle had dodged her grip ahead of time. Surprisingly, Sandra was feeble enough to miss her and fall to the ground.
This time, Hendrix finally stepped in. He approached with hurried steps and helped Sandra up.
“I’m fine, Rix. Don’t be mad at Noelle,” she said.
“Rix… As in Hendrix?” Evelyn quickly grasped the situation her eyes darting to him. “You’re Noelle’s ex- husband?”
“Come on. Let’s go.” Noelle refused to drag out this fight. She grabbed Evelyn’s hand, urging her to leave, but Evelyn remained unmoved.
Her gaze fixed on Hendrix, who was holding Sandra’s hand “What’s going on here? A play or moral dilemma? An affair between the in–laws, huh?”
“What nonsense!” Sandra instantly refuted, “Rix and I… have nothing going on!”
“A man and a woman appearing on a street like this at this hour. Nothing going on, your say? The ink on your divorce decree is barely dry!”
While speaking, Evelyn turned to Noelle, her tone full of resentment. “I don’t blame you for fantasizing about his death anymore. Who wants a man like this?”
Noelle wanted to stop her, but Hendrix suddenly spoke, “Ms. Swanson.”
His voice was so cold that it made Noelle shudder slightly. When she looked up, she met his emotionless eyes.
“I’d like it if your friend could be mindful of her words.”

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...
