The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 471

Chapter 471 

“No!” Seline said. 

Frustrated at getting interrupted repeatedly, Marla simply teached out and covered Seline’s mouth to finish what she had to say. 

“This time, the person they introduced is Mr. Freeman from Amity Group.‘ 

Seline had been about to yank Marla’s hand away, but upon hearing those words, she froze mid–motion. Then, she slowly turned to look at her. 

It took a long while–long enough for Marla to remove her hand from Seline’s mouth–before Seline finally reacted. 

“Who did you say it was? Which Mr. Freeman from Amity Group are we talking about?” she asked in disbelief. 

“Come on! How many Mr. Freemans do you know are working in Amity Group right now?” countered Marla with a roll of her eyes. “Nathan was sent abroad by Hendrix a few years ago. They said it was for training, but let’s be honest, it was practically an exile. 

“So, you see, he’s truly ruthless. Even his own brother wasn’t spared. No wonder your father said-” 

“Stop!” Seline cut her off before the conversation could veer further off track. “Let’s get back to what you just said. Are you telling me Hendrix wants to go on a blind date with me?” 

“Yes! So, what do you think? Isn’t he a great catch?” 

“Are you crazy?” Seline shot back. “Or rather, is Hendrix crazy? Does he not know about my relationship with Noelle?” 

“Exactly! That’s why I rushed to tell you about this. Don’t you think this is important?” Marla was dead serious. 

Seline suddenly found herself unable to come up with a reply. 

“So, are you going to meet him or not?” Marla pressed. 

“Of course I…” Seline had been about to refuse outright, but she swallowed her words back down. 

“The fact that he wants to go on a blind date with me probably means he’s meeting other women, too, right?” 

“Who knows? Maybe you’re the first?” 

“What? So Hendrix is still in the market for a relationship and marriage? Have you seen Noelle lately? I saw her today, and she’s practically skin and bones!” said Seline, trembling with rage. 

Marla, however, remained calm. “Well, it’s not like he knows anything about that, right? Besides, he’s not exactly young anymore. So, isn’t it normal for him to want to settle down?” 

Seline had no response to that. 

“So, are you going or not? I need to give them an answer.” 

“Fine! I’ll go,” Seline said through gritted teeth. “But only because I want to find out exactly what that heartless scumbag is thinking!” 

With that, she turned to leave, but Marla quickly grabbed her arm. “Wait! You can’t just go like this.” 

“Why not? Don’t tell me I have to put on a formal dress or something.”
