The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 507
"I saw some news about you recently. You're unable to work for the time being, right?" Beatrice slowly said. "Although Ms. Swift is a loyal friend and her family has a solid background, at the end of the day, Rosie is still my granddaughter.
"So, I don't want to see her depending on someone else for her life. And I know you feel the same way. Besides, she'll need time to recuperate after the surgery. The medical resources in Coppersville are among the best in the country, so staying here is the most logical choice.
"As for my home, you've been there. It's quiet—just me and a few household staff. You can rest assured that Hendrix rarely goes there. So, why don't you think it over?"
Beatrice's tone was calm and measured. It was clear she had prepared in advance. Every word was deliberate, laying out all the pros and cons for Noelle to consider.
Noelle stared at her for a moment before asking, "Why?"
"What?"
"Why would you want us to move in with you?"
"I've already told you. It's because—"
Noelle shook her head. "But that's not the real reason, is it? You think there's still a chance between Hendrix and me. You want to use this to bring us back together, don't you?"
Beatrice was briefly stunned, then smiled. "If you want to think of it that way, then I won't deny it. But to be honest, the deeper reason is that I'm getting old, and it makes me a little envious to see my peers being surrounded by their children and grandchildren.
"I've lived alone for far too long. Having a child around would make my life much livelier."
"But what if I refuse? Would you still go through with the surgery?"
"Of course," Beatrice answered without hesitation. "I've said before that Rosie is my granddaughter. So it's only right for me to do this. I'm merely offering a suggestion, not forcing you to agree. If you think about it rationally, you'll realize that my proposal is truly what's best for Rosie."
Noelle remained silent. She slowly lowered her eyes, staring at her fingers.

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...
