Hendrix’s voice was unremarkably calm, as if he were casually telling Noelle to pick up something from the grocery store.
Noelle’s expression shifted slightly. After a long pause, she finally asked, “Is it… that serious?”
“Yes.” Hendrix nodded. “Besides, didn’t he bully you before? Consider this payback.”
When she didn’t respond, he looked at her. “Don’t tell me you feel sorry for him?”
“No.” Noelle’s voice was steady. “I’m just… a little surprised.”
“Well, someone like him doesn’t deserve sympathy,” Hendrix spoke as he opened the cake box. Since Noelle didn’t want it, he scooped up a spoonful and put it into his mouth.
“Not bad.” He nodded, then scooped another spoonful and held it out to her. “Want to try?”
The smell still made Noelle a little queasy, but in the end, she opened her mouth.
“Is it good?” Hendrix’s smile deepened.
To keep herself from gagging, Noelle swallowed it whole, barely tasting anything. But since he had asked, she still answered, “It’s okay.”
Hendrix nodded. “Alright. I’ll get you more next time.”
“By the way, let’s go check out that baby store you were looking at this morning later tonight. We can pick up a few things. It might be too soon, but I’ll be busy afterward. We should go while we have time.”
Noelle looked down. After a moment, she gave a soft hum of agreement.
Hendrix was about to say something else when his phone rang
Noelle caught a glimpse of the caller ID–Erwin.
“I’ll take this. Freshen up and come eat.”
He didn’t wait for Noelle’s response and stepped out with his phone.
“I handled everything you asked for,” said Erwin on the phone.
Hendrix simply gave a quiet hum.
Erwin clicked his tongue. “That’s it? How do you plan to thank me?”
“That was nothing more than a favor.”
“I still had to be willing to do it,” Erwin said. “What about my proposal? Have you changed your mind?”
Hendrix didn’t answer, but his silence was an answer in itself.
“Fine. But from what I’ve seen, things aren’t looking great for you over there. If everyone around you turns on you, don’t forget–you can still come back here.”
Hendrix didn’t bother listening any further. He ended the call without hesitation and then looked back at the tightly shut door to the private room.
Erwin’s words echoed in his ears.

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...
