The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 468

Chapter 468 

Chapter 468 

Noelle returned to her apartment in the early hours of the morning. 

Rosie was already asleep, slumped over her shoulder. She must have been exhausted, as her breathing was heavy. 

With one hand supporting Rosie, Noelle struggled to open the door with the other. 

Once inside, she didn’t have time to do anything else except carefully lay Rosie down on the bed. 

After tucking her in and closing the bedroom door, Noelle finally made her way back to the living room. 

The floor lamp beside her was still on, and across from it stood the bookshelf she hadn’t had time to tidy up before leaving. Inside were countless hand–drawn sketches even some storyboard ideas she had come up with herself. 

But now, they all seemed to mock her. 

Noelle knew all too well that in this industry, authors like her were often put on a pedestal, but in reality, they were at the bottom of the food chain. 

Marketing was handled by the company, and even negotiations with collaborators were done by them. All she could do was be informed and agree. 

Yet, she was the one who sketched tirelessly every day, brainstorming plotlines late into the night, and ultimately bearing the brunt of readers‘ dissatisfaction and criticism. 

And just when she finally received the good news of the adaptation and joined the scriptwriting team, this happened, resulting in her not even having the right to be credited. 

Noelle suddenly felt the absurdity of it all. 

She closed her eyes and composed herself before starting to clean her apartment. 

That night was no different from the previous two. She lay in her bed, both physically and mentally exhausted, yet sleep still eluded her. 

The next day, Noelle was awakened by the sound of knocking on the door. Over the past two days, she had heard similar knocks at her hotel room, along with people slipping things under her door. 

Some had left threatening letters and hateful messages, while others had dumped disgusting things at her. doorstep. 

So, when Noelle heard the knocking, she couldn’t help but feel a wave of fear. 

It wasn’t until Seline’s call came through that she relaxed. 

“Are you home? I’m at your door, but it’s locked from the inside, so my key won’t work.” 

Hearing Seline’s voice, Noelle finally let out a sigh of relief. 

Seline quickly stepped inside. 

“Are you okay?” Seeing how haggard Noelle looked, she immediately frowned. “I heard what happened. Why didn’t you call me?” 

“Weren’t you busy with your overseas trip those two days? Noelle quickly forced her smile for Seline’s sake. Besides, it’s all settled now. So, I’m fine.”
