Chapter 402
Ophelia quickly stormed off in a huff.
Nathan stood there, frozen. It wasn’t until a long moment had passed that he finally came back to his senses. He rushed forward and grabbed Hendrix by the collar.
“So, you knew everything! You’ve always known, yet you let me go ahead with it. You did this on purpose!” Hendrix simply smiled. “As an adult, if you can’t even manage the most basic form of self–control, who can you blame?”
“This was clearly a trap you deliberately set up for me!”
“Yeah, but it’s always up to you whether you choose to step into it or not. I never held a gun to your head and forced you to do it.”
As he spoke, Hendrix calmly raised his hand and methodically pried Nathan’s fingers off his collar one by one. “Oh, by the way, I should mention–I actually have shares in Konray Capital, too,” Hendrix said with a faint smile. “That deal you got involved in? It was tailored specifically for you, including the stock market manager I arranged for you. Otherwise, how else do you think you managed to make so much so quickly, only to find you can’t even get your principal back?”
Nathan had only been suspicious earlier. Though he questioned loudly, at most he just thought that Hendrix probably knew what he was up to but simply chose not to stop him.
He never imagined that everything had been meticulously orchestrated by Hendrix!
At that moment, as he looked at Hendrix’s calm and indifferent expression, he suddenly felt an overwhelming chill.
“Alright. Pack up and head back,” Hendrix said.
With that, he reached over and took Noelle’s hand, leading her away. “Let’s go home.‘
Noelle took a few steps with him, but she couldn’t help but turn back to glance at Nathan.
Hendrix had already returned to his seat, but his expression was vacant, as though something vital had been drained from him.
Once they were in the car, Hendrix immediately made a call instructing someone to report the situation regarding Nathan’s mortgaged shares.
Noelle frowned, watching him intently.
“What’s wrong?” Hendrix asked with a smile. “Why are you looking at me like that?”
“If you do that, won’t Amity Group’s stock price be affected too?!!
“Yeah, I know.” Hendrix’s response was crisp and direct.
Noelle Instantly understood–this was exactly the outcome he was alming for. Without this, how could be swallow Nathan’s shares?
Of course, his own loss wouldn’t be small, either. But com with this move, Nathan would never be able to recover. As Hendrix

This was the Hendrix she knew–cold–blooded and ruthless. As long as he achieved his goal, he didn’t care about the means, nor would he hesitate even for a second.
It was at this moment that Noelle understood why Erwin had come here.
The stock market manager Hendrix mentioned was probably him. Nathan would be nothing more than a bug in their hands with Hendrix and Erwin working together.

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. 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...
