Hendrix’s gaze lingered on the baby store for a long moment before he finally opened the car door.
Before he could get in, Noelle had already shifted to the far side of the seat, staring out the window, clearly trying to put as much distance between them as possible.
Hendrix noticed but said nothing of it.
As the car moved forward, Noelle suddenly spoke, “Can you stop locking me up? Don’t worry, I won’t harm the baby anymore. I’ve thought it through. No matter what, the child is innocent.
“But you can’t keep shutting me away like this. Even if I wasn’t sick before, you’re going to drive me insane.”
Her voice was soft. It was as if she were calmly negotiating with him.
Hendrix narrowed his eyes slightly and replied, “If you don’t want to stay home, that’s fine. From now on, I’ll take you to work with me every day.”
Noelle froze and looked at him.
“I’m not joking,” he added quickly, as though he knew exactly what she was thinking.
Noelle gave a faint, sarcastic smile. “Aren’t you afraid I’ll steal your company secrets?”
Hendrix simply chuckled.
She could tell exactly what that laugh meant–he never saw her as a threat.
Not because of their relationship, but because, in his eyes, she simply wasn’t qualified. To him, all she needed to do was be his caged songbird.
Noelle closed her eyes briefly, then turned to him. “Fine. I’ll go with you to the office.”
After the last time Hendrix had dragged her into the company, her appearance there no longer caused much of a stir. He didn’t try to hide anything from her at all.
While she rested on the couch, he conducted business as usual.
The transfer order for Nathan had already been issued. In the next few days, he would be heading to Vinton City to take over the Continental Reach project, accompanied by Aaron.
Nathan’s departure wasn’t much of a concern. The bigger issue was that Beatrice had been meeting frequently with several shareholders, seemingly making some moves of her own.
“Is that so?” Hendrix’s expression remained indifferent. “Let her do as she pleases.”
“But

The person speaking hesitated, but Hendrix merely smiled. “No matter what, she’s still my mother. Do you really think she would try to harm me?”
As soon as he said those words, Noelle couldn’t help but look up at him.
His lips were curled in a faint smile, but there wasn’t a trace of warmth in his eyes.
She felt a chill run down her spine.

Noelle quickly averted her gaze.
The man he had been speaking with soon left. As he passed by, he glanced at Noelle, but she ignored him.

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...
