Noelle pursed her lips and finally took the document. "Thank you."
After speaking, she glanced at Rosie.
Rosie immediately caught on and said, "Thank you, Great-Grandma."
Ophelia didn't say anything more. She just leaned back on her bed and looked at Rosie.
Noelle didn't have much to say to her, and Rosie was still a little afraid of Ophelia, so they didn't stay long.
Once Ophelia drifted off to sleep involuntarily, Noelle quietly led Rosie out of the room. She had expected Beatrice to still be waiting outside, but when she stepped out, she found Hendrix standing there instead.
A frown immediately appeared on her face when she saw him.
Hendrix, however, looked calm. When his gaze fell on Noelle, it first swept over the folder in her hand.
After hesitating for a moment, Noelle handed the folder to him. "Mrs. Freeman Senior gave me these shares, but they're of no use to me. You can have them back."
Hendrix smirked and said, "She didn't give them to me. Are you sure you don't want it?"
"Yeah, I don't want them."
"Then, give it back to her," he said coldly. It was clear he had no intention of taking the folder from her.
Thus, Noelle had no choice but to withdraw her hand.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Sway and Slide of Love
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👨👩👧...

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...
