The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 432
Chapter 432
“What did you just say?” Hendrix asked.
He seemed to doubt what he’d heard, his voice tinged with obvious disbelief.
Noelle repeated herself.
“Is she out of her mind?” Hendrix mused expressionlessly once he heard her clearly.
His reaction made Noelle pause. She couldn’t help but chuckle.
Hendrix, however, was sporting furrowed brows and a serious expression.
“Let’s just take it as her talking nonsense,” Noelle said.
“Was it Jean or Dylan who said it?”
Upset by the question, Noelle couldn’t help but frown for a brief moment. “Didn’t I just say it was Jean?”
Hendrix smirked faintly, clearly not taking her words to heart. In his mind, it seemed like he had already pinned the blame on Dylan.
Noelle didn’t bother explaining further. The more she said, the more likely he was to overthink. So, she simply fell silent.
Seeing that Hendrix was about to continue changing his clothes, she turned to leave.
But Hendrix suddenly grabbed her arm, staring intently at her with a frown. “So, you believed her?”
Noelle met his gaze for a moment before countering, “What do you think?”
Hendrix pressed his lips together, saying nothing.
In that moment, he hoped Noelle would say she trusted him. Yet, he was just as afraid she’d respond with indifference, saying it didn’t matter.
Caught between hope and fear, he decided to retract his question altogether.
“I didn’t,” he said instead.
“Mm, I know,” responded Noelle finally.
Her voice was as calm as ever, but as Hendrix listened, the corners of his tightly pressed lips subtly curled upward.
“What do you know?” he asked.
“I trust in your intelligence.”
Hendrix was baffled by her response. He looked at her, puzzled.
“I trust that with your level of intelligence, you’d fully understand the consequences of doing something like that. If you ever did cheat, it would only mean you’ve already calculated every possible outcome. So, in that case, there’s nothing more for me to say,” Noelle explained slowly.
It sounded like she was acknowledging and trusting him, but something about it didn’t sit right with him. His frown deepened. Then, he asked her, “Say I really did cheat on you, what would you do, then?”
Noelle fell silent, her gaze lowering slightly as if she were seriously considering his question.

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...
