The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 438
Chapter 438
“It’s nothing. If you’re busy, then just forget about it,” Noelle said.
With that, she turned to leave.
But Hendrix quickly grabbed her hand, a smile tugging at his lips. “At least tell me what’s happening that day so I can make arrangements.”
“It’s nothing important. If you don’t have time, it’s fine.” Noelle’s voice grew noticeably colder.
But as she turned away, Hendrix reached out from behind and wrapped his arms around her.
“I thought you’d forgotten,” he said with a chuckle. “Don’t worry. Even if you don’t remember, I do. So, what birthday gift did you get me this time?”
“Didn’t you say you’d be busy? How are we supposed to celebrate your birthday, then?” Noelle shot back expressionlessly.
Hendrix’s smile deepened. He gently pinched her cheek. “I was just teasing you. I’ve actually been working nonstop lately just to free up that day. How about we go to the beach?”
“The beach? In this weather?” Noelle frowned.
“Then, how about a hot spring? I’ll have someone book a hotel.”
Noelle didn’t respond, seemingly uninterested.
“Then, what do you want to do?” Hendrix asked patiently.
Just as she was about to
answer, his phone rang.
He immediately turned his attention to it.
Noelle hadn’t meant to look, but as she turned her head, she caught a glimpse of the name on his phone screen- Olivia Garnet.
She remembered the last time she had been there to witness Hendrix receiving a call from Olivia.
Back then, Olivia’s number had been unnamed. But now, it was clearly saved under her full name.
Noelle swallowed back down the words she was just about to say.
The person on the other end of the call said something that made Hendrix frown.
“Okay. I got it.”
After uttering these words, Hendrix hung up. Then, he turned back to Noelle, his expression shifting quickly.
While he had been cold and serious during the call, his expression softened the moment he looked at her. He was even smiling at her with warmth in his eyes.
“Now, where were we? What did you say you wanted to do?” he asked.
“You should first make sure you’re actually free that day before we plan anything,” Noelle said as she turned to leave. “I’m tired, so I’m going back to my room.”
Hendrix had wanted to stop her, but Noelle walked away before he could do that.
Just then, Olivia sent over a few photos.

Hendrix opened them, and the frown on his face immediately deepened.

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...
